Well I Must I Must

[magiroux]

Sorry Jen about your Trojans. The streak had to end sometime. I thought Coach Pete Carroll showed alot of class after the game, as did all of the team. There are alot of future NFL stars there.

Pete Carroll..wasn't he a Pats coach years ago??


I sure wish I could do WDW before, but me thinks the truant officer would be taking me away. So it's sardine sandwich (or "lots of skin to skin contact" as delswife so eloquently put it) for us

Kara, I stayed at the Swan for a few days in Dec and I although I wasn't too impressed with the Swan I absolutely love the location of the Epcot resorts. If I ever get to stay on-site I will definately be staying in one of those resorts. Good luck snagging BWV

Kat, I'm with ya on the winter thing. A little sick of it hear. Today it's snow, then rain, then freezing rain, then snow, then ice, yada, yada, yada...gotta luv New England, don't like the wheather, wait a minute.

 

[magiroux]

you are bad, gaRry

I could have had that one if I would count quicker

Yes, I believe you're correct on Pete Carroll.

Ain't that the truth on New England! DH is from VT, and though we love to go back to visit, he likes the weather (most of the time) here in CA better. He does miss it in the fall though!

Anywho... we will be watching the Patriots play on Saturday!

 

[dobelover]

We like the campground at Christmas. Lots of the campers really decorate in addition to the WDW lights. I can wheel DM around the loops so she can enjoy the sights and warm weather.



Sue

ME! ME! ME! I am a Panthers fan but enjoy good football anytime. We are going on the Magic the 28th of Jan and get home just in time for Super Bowl.




Sue

 

[karaeric]

Oh Sue, how fun! We are really starting to wish to be on the "Mouse boat" again soon, but December is our next cruise. BTW, we've never seen the campgrounds, so we may need to come visit you and DM! The decorations sound fun.

Lots of traveling this year...June or July going back to VT for Eric's friend's homecoming from Iraq. Then October, 2 weeks in Ireland for our 10th anniversary. And finally, a week at WDW then the cruise!!!!!

I'll be BROKE by the end of the year, but happy and rested!

 

[magiroux]

Sue, is your cruise an Eastern or Western? Hope the weather is good for you and DM.

Kara, what part of VT is your DH from? VT is affectionately referred to as cow country around here and very cold so CA must be a drastic change. Fall is my favorite season and VT has the most beautiful foliage in the country so I can certainly understand how he must miss it. I can still remember as kids our yearly pilgrimage to Hogback Mountain in the fall

YES, we will definately be cheering for the PATS this Saturday. Us NE Fans need to pin all our hopes on football 'cause I think the Soxs may turn out to be a bit of a dissapointment. And hockey & basketball, let's not even go there

 

[magiroux]

I'll be BROKE by the end of the year, but happy and rested!

Well, isn't that the only way to go through life? I do believe it is

 

[dobelover]

Sometimes a family group even walks around singing Christmas Carols. We will have to get together for some pre-cruise fun.



And I agree with you Mary Ann.



I hope Denise is doing alright.




Sue

 

[dee47]

I'm hoping we won't have a problem taking DS out of school as early as I plan to next Dec. -- he'd miss about 2 weeks, but I do NOT want to go to WDW after the cruise -- we did that after the last 10 days and I did not enjoy the crowds at all...So I'll bribe the teacher with a special report or something...Right now we plan on arriving at the WLV on 12/11.

Meanwhile, in LESS THAN A MONTH I'll be leaving for WDW and a 7-night Eastern with my best friend Kat. We'll be gone 17 days...I CAN'T WAIT!!!!

I'm all for multiple t-shirts. And if you have a person that will actually do Jen's pretty design -- more power to you!

Yes, GarRy, I did find the hidden Mickeys, long time ago. I like it!

I'm already 3/4 packed for the Feb. vacation...Woo-hoo!

Hey Sue, when will you be in Seattle????

 

[wdwgoose]

WELL I get to leave on tuesday I'll be back for work on saturday morning or maybee just monday morning, WE WILL SEE



anyone need a ride down????????

s U e j E n k A t MARY ann???????????

okay I ask WARMER WEATHER YES!!!!!!!



gaRry

 

[magiroux]

Sue, I sent Denise a message over New Year's and when I didn't hear anything I looked her city up on the map and she SEEMED to be well south of the flooding so hopefully it is just her family issues keeping her away, not that that's any fun either.

gaRry, I thought you were kidding. Are you really heading down to WDW Tuesday? Sometimes I have a little trouble deciphering your posts . Have a great trip and make sure to bring the dependable vehicle .

I just realized, this group sure does vacation and/or cruise alot. Not that there's anything wrong with that .

Dee, for some reason our fine state of Massachusetts ties attendance records into the yearly progress testing. Since funds are attached to the test scores the city gets pretty ticked at people taking their kids out of school. Add to that we have a very large Brazilian population in our city that take 3-4- weeks off a year to return home in winter and it seems to effect us each year pretty badly, although they don't seem to go after them. Afraid of not being "PC", I guess. Hope you have a great time on your cruise. 17 days....WOW, lucky you!!

 

[magiroux]

Any around

 

[magiroux]

Last chance, gaRry

 

[magiroux]

HA!!!! Finally

T.O.P.

gotta get it while he's packing for WDW, yea, yea, that's the ticket

 

[DCLgodess]

Sue do you want to come up for a meet this saturday?

 

[KatHuss]

Hmm....Patriots fans....hmmm

Sorry, but I gotta say it...

GO COLTS!!!


Now that I have gotten that out of my system....


No WDW before or after the cruise for us. I am taking a good chunk of my vacation in March for our Hawaii trip and even more for the cruise. I gotta have a couple of days left for personal days throughout the year.

 

[WMILLER86]

OK, No more NFL talk! Do you want to see a grown man cry!!??!! I have season tickets to the worst team in the NFL.(Houston) At least we have first pick of the draft! And my seats are 5 rows from the playing field. And my old
favorite team, the Cowboys were a bunch of under achievers this season.

So, maybe that is my the TEXAS LONGHORN win was so fun to us Texans. Other than UT, there was not much happiness in Texas football!

Willie

 

[karaeric]

No worries Willie! My team is pretty much right there with the Texans - I'm a 49er fan, born and raised. DH is the Patriots fan.

Mary Ann, DH is from a very small town in northern VT named Johnson. It's about directly East of Burlington, in the middle of the state. I've never been back to VT for fall colors. Just seen it in very sticky summer and VERY snowy winter.

Does anyone remember when they release the MVMCP dates? DH is already bugging me to make sure I get tickets for that this year while we're at WDW before the cruise.
