2006 DVC Member Cruise - SSMC06 - October 22, 2006

Amy, your girls are a perfect age for this. Has the leprechaun ever turned the milk in your house green? I do it all the time with my daycare, sometimes they get a little freaked out because it's not the right color, but it's always amazing to see their faces. I put a little drop of food coloring in the bottom of their cups and when they see me pour the white milk in and make it green, they are always so surprised.

Ohhh, I never thought to try that. I'm not sure if they'll actually drink it, but maybe I'll give it a try with breakfast tomorrow morning!!!

in my new craft room has been assembled and I've started moving in!!!

I still have tons of stuff to transfer, but most of my Disney supplies, etc. have found a new home.

Pics, lets see pictures please! Congrats on your new "studio". I love mine to pieces, my own quiet refuge!

We are getting SOOO buried in ice and snow. It's a new england 'noreaster!
Begrudingly brought the boots, hat and mittens back out. I'd like to ask for prayers or good thoughts for my daughter who is stuck in transit. I think she is in Atlanta now. She flew out of Daytona to come home today and her flight into BWI go cancelled and she went to Atlanta but now they are saying she can't come home until Monday. She is with some friends but we want her HOME!
DH isn't home yet and my hour ride home from a conference in RI turned into 2hours. I never went above 30m/hr. and most of the time was stuck at 10m/hr. It's icy and the roads haven't even been plowed. JUST YUK! But I do have pretty primas to look at

 

[IleneF]

Oh Ilene all I can say is YUK! We had beautiful weather here about 65' and no rain. I worked out in the yard and have called a couple of people to bid on some house painting outside. I can't wait for Orlando next week! Packing shorts and short sleeves! I hope people can handle my WHITE legs! I am getting stuff together for the trial of the owners locker. We were chosen as one of the test families. It will be nice to have a few things down there that we like to have without always having to pack it or throw away items that we did not finish using.

Have a Great Green St. Patty's Day Everyone!

I know this is a few days late in response, but Ian's been on Spring Break this week and lots has been going on around the house - FINALLY!

Speaking of babies, Robin, I can't believe that you are so close to the arrival of your little one. How are you feeling chasing a preschoolers around all day long? Tired, I bet.

I know, I can't believe how fast these months are flying by. I'm feeling GREAT, though trying to keep up with Ian makes me want a nap even when he doesn't.

I know some people absolutely hate being pregnant because they feel like crap the whole time. I guess I take after my mother who loved being pregnant. Except for indigestion sometimes - mostly at night after I've eaten too much or the wrong stuff, often feeling tired in the afternoons, and occassional hip pain so far I've been really lucky.

Rebecca is feeling fine. Just starting to feel the baby move. Only had morning sickness once! (Some things just aren't fair) We took her some maternity clothes that my neice no longer needs for now, and we had a good time having our own little "fashion show" with them. She kept about half of them, and sent the larger, long-sleeve items home. Don't think she'll be needing them since the baby's due in August!

That's great that she's doing so well. I know I've been lucky not to have any morning or afternoon or evening sickness. (I was lucky this way with Ian, too.)

And the fashion show sounds fun. I have just a few - like 3 long sleeve, 3 short sleeve, and a few pants. I think I need to get a couple more sping-time shirts to see me the next 2 months, though.

You asked for it.


These are some pics I took before/after the shelving was put together. I started moving stuff in there last night, and worked on it more this afternoon while Ian napped. But I still have a long way to go before it's all set up the way I want.

Ian's custom table will go in the window area where you see him sitting. I still need to make contact with the company to get it done, but first things first... get my stuff in there. I also want to paint a little inspiration or something over the door and maybe around the windows. I think that's going to wait until after Squirt is born though.

OMG, Ilene driving through that weather sounds just horrible. So glad you made it home safely. I hope your DD gets home sooner rather than later. (Boy am I glad I live in an area where spring usually begins by mid-March! It was up to 80 yesterday and around 65 and gorgeous today.)

Okay, do tell. What is the owners locker you speak of?

 

[alikat99]

Wow Robin, those photos are GREAT!! And, I love the color!!!

 

[#1Mouse]

Robin the room looks great! I'm sure you'll have all kinds of fun filling those shelves.

My sister just e-mailed me and said that she read that they are opening an Archivers this summer at the mall that's near my house I guess I need to go to the mall and check out where it's going to be.

Morning!

Robin, the room looks great! I love the shape of the alcove by the windows! Have fun getting settled into your new space.

I'm off to camping this morning. It's cold but dry out so all is well. Have a great weekend!

 

[alikat99]

Happy St. Patrick's Day!!!

[crzy4dals]

WOW Robin. What a great space. I love the color you used in there. It is nice a cheery.

Have a great weekend everyone.

 

[iluvdisney]

Robin - the room looks great - love the color!
Owners Locker is a great idea and I used mine for the first time in January. I was able to put stuff in the box that I always need every trip down to WDW and they give you a sheet for listing what you have in there so you know what you don't have to bring next trip. What a simple idea that will make them some good money! I didn't fill my box to the brim but know it will be added to next trip. So convenient! And with kids should really come in handy with families.

Ilene - we only got rain in Delaware all day yesterday but thought we might need a boat to get around. Be careful up north everyone!

Life is good - have a
Happy St Patty's Day!

Robin - WOW the space looks GRAND!!!

The owners locker looks very exciting! Please please please do not store your sunscreen in there unless you are going to PROMISE to check the expiration date. Yes, it expires, yes, you will get a severe sunburn with expired sunscreen and it's awful .. had it, seen others, miserable vacations if it happens!

I check our sunscreen every year and usually just buy new each year.

Thanks for the warning Julie. Sunscreen is not on my list of things to keep in my owners locker. Like Amy I purchase new every year too.
I am bringing an extra suitcase full of items I would like to have while in WDW and hate taking back and forth or not bring at all because we live so far away. The whole point of DVC is a home away from home. Having my own beach towel @ one of the water parks is going to be nice! I hate the sea of white towels you can never find your seat!
