Just got our airfare booked for October. We had some FREE travel vouchers from being bumped last month and we are using them for October. Unfortunately, we wanted to leave Thursday (all they had was a red eye) so we will leave Friday the 20th and return on Saturday the 28th. Now to adjust the car rental one less day!

I'm finally done with my very busy week and will be in chat tonight too!! I feel like it's been forever since I talked to you guys!

GREAT!!! It looks like there will be a few of us in chat tonight!!!

I think I'll be popping in for a tad on chat tonight.
I started wrapping presents last night while Jeff & Nick were camping and I ran out of tape. I couldn't believe it. So off to WalMart I went this morning. Went bright and early to get in & out without any hassles.

I popped in to chat too late. We had our Christmas program at church tonight, and since church is 30 away from home, by the time we got back, everyone had left. Don't think I'll be there next Sunday night either, but maybe on Friday for cruise chat. We'll see....Sorry I missed all of you!

Morning all.

Short chat for me last night. As I told Amy, sometimes I feel like I always say to my kids "in a minute" instead of "I'm coming". Last night was one of those times it just felt right to instantly acknowledge them. Besides, I had been heating my toe with a heating pad and I couldn't do that on the computer. Can you believe it's still sore from when I broke it in November? This is one of those times that I feel like I probably should have gone to the doctor.

Anyway, I hope I didn't offend anyone bugging out as quick as I did. I'm thinking next Sunday will probably be out.....maybe Friday if all is caught up. I have a ton of things to wrap for my kids. I don't know what I was thinking, but I don't see it getting done while they are around. I've already told Gary one night this week, he's going to have to take the kids out someplace so I can get it all done. With them on Winter Break, they now put us to bed as it's a treat for them to stay up late (okay, Walker doesn't make it all that late but Cameron is another story ).

We are having our daycare Christmas party today. All the presents are wrapped, stocking are stuffed. I just need to blow up the helium ballooons. The kids are going to be like crazy little people today in anticipation of their gifts. It's too cold out to play outside so it's going to be a long day.

I took my own kids sledding yesterday. It was freezing! I'm sure I would have been warmer if I did anything but stand in the cold but I was afraid to with the way my foot feels. We got into the car, I'm chilled to the bone and Cameron's sweating up a storm. They had fun but we are in need on some fresh snow, the hills are starting to show the grass underneath which makes it harder for the sleds to travel.

Cindy - no problem putting your kids first! Your exit was just so quick we didn't get to say good-bye. I think most of us only made it to about 9 pm.


Sorry to hear your toe is still bothering you! Here's hoping it gets better soon.

Your party today sounds like fun - hope you and the kids all enjoy it!

 

[alikat99]

Have fun with the kids today, Cindy!! I'm sure that it will be a great treat for them. Again, I sure wish that you lived near by, then I wouldn't have to worry about putting Madison in daycare to go back to work. Luckily, I won't have to do that until she's old enough to go to preschool.

I know what you mean about getting the wrapping done, Cindy. Luckily, both of mine still nap for a little while, so I'm going to try to get it done each day while they are resting. I just have to watch it so that Emily doesn't wake up early and surprise me.

Well, today is our anniversary, so Chris is at home today. 7 years together.

We don't have any big plans, except to just spend the day together. We are doing stuff around the house, and Chris is working on putting our master bathroom back together. Then, we're going out to dinner at Bonefish Grill tonight while my mom watches the girls.

 

[WDWLVR]

Happy Anniversary Amy & Chris!


May you have many many more happy years together! ​

Cindy--have lots of fun with the kids today. I'm sure it will be a great time. We had our kids Christmas party last week, actually two of them and little kids opening presents is the cutest thing. Of course, Julia would unwrap the gift, toss the gift and play with the paper!

Paper and boxes. Doesn't it make you wonder why we actually spend money on gifts?

But if we gave kids paper and boxes for Christmas, we'd probably be in jail for child abuse or the kids will be in therapy for the rest of their lives.

Happy Anniversary Amy & Chris!

Hope you two have a great day.

WOW, what a busy week. The girls did most of the wrapping yesterday. They did a great job. I just hope they put the right names on the gifts. We are going to have my family over for Christmas day so I need to get cleaning. I also have to plan for dinner and go shopping. So much to do.

The girls got their schedule for gymnastics for Jan at Disney. I am so excited. The next few weeks are going to fly by. Next week Christmas, the next New Years then Niagara Falls, then a meet in Canton and finally Disney. I am tired just thinking about it.

Your right, therapy it would most likely be.

I still remember that I didn't get that hook-n-ladder fire truck when I was 2-3. After all, it wasn't a "girl" toy.

I more than made up for that 1 missing fire truck with the amount of fire trucks my boys have. Definately my form of therapy.

Sorry we missed chat last night - my BIL flew in for meetings here so we took him to dinner at Salt Grass Steakhouse and then on up to Plano. By the time we returned to the house it was 10:30 and we were pooped!

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY AMY AND CHRIS!!!!! May you have many more together

Cindy - I'm sure the kids will have a great time and sleding sounds like so much fun. Sorry to hear about your toe, I broke my big toe in college and they wanted to cast it but we were going skiing so I said no. At the time I thought it was a great idea, now when it's cold and it aches I think it wasn't. I hope it heals fast!

This week is going to fly by - we work each day through Thursday, I still have some minor shopping to finish and some shipping that must happen today, plus one last batch of cookies. I leave Friday for Iowa and Matt leaves Saturday for North Carolina. We both arrive back on Monday. I can't wait till the 30th when we leave for NYE at WDW!

Happy Anniversary, Amy and Chris!
