Oh I can't believe I told you guys that never mind actually did that to my DH and DD. I think I will now run to Starbucks to get that pumpkin frappachino. They won't know what a freak I have become. Starbucks is my friend.

We are going to have to make sure you can get those things at the Cove Cafe.

Well DH banished me from the boards yesterday when i got home from DD's state baton championships.

DD's Poms team took 1st place

(Really exciting considering one of the girls broke her foot and they had to learn new formations just a couple days ago) What clinched it was that the team (who took 1st from them in the last comp 2 weeks ago) before them messed a few things up with their routine and one girl had even left one of her poms of the ground during a formation (when she should have picked it up).

DD's Baton team only got 2nd place though.

(Some baton drops on simple tosses dropped their scores.) At least they placed this year. Her group is mainly all kids newer to twirling and they didn't do so well last year.

That is fantastic!!! Congrats to DD & her friends.

goofy - that is awesome - such hard work for those competitions! HOORAY!!

 

[DSharpe]

I forgot to tell you guys!!

We're going to the MVMCP on Thurs the 7th!!!! Got our tix last week!

Still haven't decided what to do on Friday, though. We'll be in DTD that evening.

Ya'll have a great week! I won't be on much. New girl starts tomorrow for training. Hopefully I'll at least get to stop by and chat next friday.

I am doing MVMCP on Tuesday night. I get into MCO at 11am and should be at my resort around 12:30 pm, a shower and a bite to eat at DTD, maybe a little shopping. Then over to MK for 4 pm and an ADR for 5:45 at Crystal Palace. It has been years since I have eaten there.

Really bad thing is when they all piled into the car - okay well even before that - I was trying to use the stylus to write fast and I wasn't reaching over to open the car door quickly enough (remember it was pouring). Then when DH got behind the wheel I said "WAIT!!" He looked over at me trying to manaeuver the thing and I said "You can't go yet I might lose my connection. Just wait one second. Wait one second"

He made up for it when he put the ring on my finger. We were both crying.

Can you believe that I am adding onto the website? I just created the 12th page of DIS bios. That means that we now have 45 family groups cruising with us. I expect 4-5 to drop off the list next month but that is still incredible!!!

 

[pjpoohbear]

Lisa, your so easy, lol.

[lbgraves]

YEAH!!!!! I graduated from HS in 1985!!!

Great story Angie.
Glad to see that DH and I aren't the only ones with live people in the closet (instead of skeletons.)

My DMIL passed away from cancer in January 2005. I always thought something was a little off with her side of the family. Well during her hospice care, we come to find out that her visiting nurse was also DH's COUSIN. (We knew that a DA gave one child up for adoption same age as DH but that DA also had another child same age as Dh's oldest brother.) We came to find out that DH even interned under the new found cousin's DF and had ate lunch at their house occasionally but had never met the DC. (OK weird creepy)

OK more live bodies....

Apparently my DH also had a DA who he never knew about either. She had even worked with DMIL for years and DMIL never mentioned her.

All our new family member are really nice. Glad that we got to know them. (Not glad how we found out though.)

Weird that they all still live in the same area. Both Dennis and his sister have moved around. Both from Long Beach, CA she to OK when she was 5 and then CO, he back and forth to MT and CA and now in OR. Never would have run into each other, I think.

It is good to find the family though, just more to love!

NEWSLETTER WILL BE DELAYED, LIFE HAS GOTTEN IN THE WAY. SORRY!
Will have it out sometime during this week.

Wow, congratulations to her! We have so many really neat, talented kids in this group!
