I'm so glad it got there. Glad I could help get it for you. I'm sure it will look great on you.

Sandy, Kerry is thrilled with the dress. She has tried it on a couple of times and loves it

Does that mean there will be two parties?

Hey, I'm up for that

Hi everyone!!!

It's been a LONG day!! Glad to see Suzanne is back!! There is way too much to catch up on tonight - maybe tomorrow!!

Hi Laurie, what have you been up to

....................................​

Morning Girls

Not too much to catch up on from last night, I hope you all had a nice evening

I haven't got too much to do today. I'm taking my mum into town and Becky is coming with us (as she itching to spend some of that Birthday money )

Other than that, hopefully I'll get my exercise dvd done, but I'll probably end up going for a walk as the girls will be home and I don't like leaping around the front room like an idiot when someone is home (not a pleasant sight )

What are you up to today ?

Have a great day girls

Mandy - UGHHHHHHHHHHHH - I can't even get into it again - my head is still pounding from yesterday!! Maybe when we are on the boat, we can all go to the gym together .. That would be great, right?

Shopping sounds good - today, is MY day - I am going to clean - which isn't really for me, it's for the company coming on Sunday - but, at 10am I am heading over to the nail place for a refill and a pedicure........ Very happy about that!

Boys get out at 12, Ant's friend is coming w/his bro, I have to watch them for about a half hour after school - their mom has conferences this afternoon - so, she asked me to take them...

I need to go and get some odds and ends for the trip - I have to return two pairs of jeans that I got the boys a few weeks ago - going to return those and get some shorts.

I promised the boys I would take them to the movies last night, but, w/the chaos here, I didn't get to take them, so, we'll go tonight!

No school for them tomorrow.... Carm is off so I am working then...

We need to dye our Easter eggs and get ready for the BIG day on Sunday - and I have to figure out what I am doing about the trip - we are SUPPOSED to leave on Monday - but, we MIGHT NOT be going - which is related to yesterday's incident... UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH But, we'll see - I wouldn't be devasted if we don't go - considering, I am not really organized for the trip in the first place. And my Dad is actually up in NJ this week, and he said if we aren't heading south, he will stay up here and tie up some loose ends w/the sale of his condo - so, he is OK w/it...

That is my semi-saga - I don't want to make it a blog just about me - but, that seems to be what it has turned out to be.... Sorry about that!

Hope all is well!
Laurie

You all were busy posting last night!

It was raining all day and night yesterday. Keegan had over a few friends all afternoon. His baseball practice was canceled so we went to the movies to see Dr. Seuss' Horton Hears a Who. It was cute.

I'm sure we'll wind up with a houseful of boys again today. Keegan has indoor batting practice tonight and Brennan will get to play in the facility's tunnels and video games. We may take the boys bowling this morning and for hair cuts.

Mandy - UGHHHHHHHHHHHH - I can't even get into it again - my head is still pounding from yesterday!! Maybe when we are on the boat, we can all go to the gym together .. That would be great, right?

Laurie, the only exercise I will be getting onboard will be my elbow, when I pick up my Bahama Mama glass and put it to my mouth

I promised the boys I would take them to the movies last night, but, w/the chaos here, I didn't get to take them, so, we'll go tonight!

What are you going to see Laurie ? My girls want to see Vantage Point at the weekend - have fun with your boys

OK, have I missed something ? What happened yesterday ? Are you OK ? Will you still try to get away for a few days if it all falls through with your dad ?

Glad you had fun at the movies Danielle

Well I've had a busy morning running around after my mum and Becky. Becky managed to get her XBox game, so she's happy (phew !!), and I'm just going to chill for an hour or so until I decide whether to exercise or not (it isn't looking too good at the moment though )

Have a good day everyone

 

[mandymouse]

It's not looking too good at Cocoa Beach today. It's nearly boarding time and it's only 66F and cloudy. The seas looking a bit rough too. I hope that the weather gets better for anyone boarding the Wonder today

Afternoon All, Just got back from running to the florist to send some flowers to my grandma in arizona. Then i went to home depot for the wicked mil flowers...lol ..and i have sent my mom some flowers to her house for easter. Next on the list is grocery shopping..woohoo..

Mandy have a nice time shopping with the girls today.

Laurie i hope today is a lot better for you.

Sandy, sorry i had to make it so quick last night hopefully we can chat longer today.

To add to my fun today i think i may have to take the stupid dog to the vet he keeps throwing up all over the house..ugh..

 

[Hanover]

I did some Easter Bunny shopping at Walmart this morning. I got Keegan a new Madden 2008 nintendo DS game and Brennan some Star Wars Legos. I bought some Easter candy, a few Disney coloring books for my nieces and nephews and some planted tulips for the aunts/sisters coming on Sunday.

We took the boys to the Hungry Parrot for lunch. It's kind of an all -you- can eat Italian food Chuck E Cheese. My dad is going to take Keegan to the movies to see Semi -Pro and I'm going to ride bikes and play legos with Brennan. It's beautiful outside, but still quite chilly.

It sounds like you've had a nice day today Danielle. As for Easter presents, my girls have got some Easter Eggs and some tickets to see Simple Plan in April - so that was nice and easy

Hey Mandy!!

I have to say - I went to WW this morning - and lost a HUGE HUGE .2 - which isn't even a half pound! I was pretty bad since my JBJ weekend - and at least I got rid of what I gained - so, I'll take it! Now, I need to get back on track - but, w/the holiday and the week off coming up, it is going to be very hard!!

You and I will be doing the same exercise on the ship, fork to mouth for me!

We are going to go see College Road Trip - I could care less, but that is what Ant wants to see - Dominic doesn't even want to go - but, he has NO choice!!

So, things here have been a bit difficult that past few days - Michele knows ALL the details!! LOL It started w/the pregnancy scare at the beginning of the week (negative Thank God), and moved onto WORSE things yesterday - long story short - I am a bit PO'd at my sister - she has a horrible HORRIBLE driving record - and got pulled over a few weeks ago - and told the officer she left her license at home, and decided to give him MY name and MY address - so, yesterday, I got two citations in the mail, and had no clue what they were from - so, I called the town that they were issued in to tell them that I was no where near there (it is about 60 miles from here) - anyway, after speaking to the lady, and she asked if I had a specific kind of car, and I put two and two together - to figure it was her - so, things have been VERY stressful and frustrating over here.. I want to KILL her! That is the short version of the story - I always seem to have drama over here, huh??

Mandy - aren't you glad you asked?????????

 

[mandymouse]

OMG Laurie - what a week !!

Well done on losing .2 of a pound. I'll take any kind of loss, I promise you

LOL, it looks like our elbows are going to be the fittest part of us on the Cruise

Good Luck next week with your dieting, don't deprive yourself, just be a little careful, then you can get back on track when you're home

So sorry that you've had a stressful week. I think I'd be freaked too if I thought I was pregnant again - I love my girls to bits, but I'm starting to get my life back again as they become more independant

As for your sister, that's terrible. Did you drop her in it ? did you tell them who it was ? I'd be tempted to, but I probably wouldn't do it - blooming families

Lots of hugs to you and I hope you have a great Easter break

omg you must be so angry with her!!!

I'm back from shopping hell. The stores were packed i guess everyone decided to do their easter food shopping today. I decided to wait another day on the dog. I don't have a couple of hundred to throw away if he isn't that sick. I will see how he is tomorrow.

I see you shared with the group laurie. I hope it all gets sorted out today before you have to work with her tomoorrow. I hope you do go away you really deserve a little break after the week you have had.

 

[mandymouse]

Oh no, I'm hoping to be at the supermarket for 8am tomorrow morning, so I hope it's not really busy. At least your shopping is done now Michele

I hope you do go away you really deserve a little break after the week you have had.

I have to agree with that

 

[micheleluvsmickey]

I just realized today is the first day of spring.

 

[micheleluvsmickey]

Yes it's done until tomorrow ... the kids have not stopped eating since they have had off from school..It is amazing how quickly the food has disappeared.

LOL, I think my shopping bill is going to be double the normal, with all the food Becky wants for her sleepover tomorrow night

 

[mandymouse]

So what plans have you got on this evening ? Is there anything good on the TV ?

Happy first Day of Spring!

It is cool and windy here in Eastern Pa. I have been putting in long hours this week trying to get a new website up for a client and have enough done so I can spend some time with my kids. they are on Vacation starting tomorrow and all next week. they will probably drive me nuts by next Friday since I work from home and I never have a day off!! ( Correction, they are already fighting, before I finished this post!) Any one into horses? I do a lot of horse related websites This is the one i just finished Bit of Heaven Tack Shop (bohtack dot com )

Happy Birthday to Becky and Nicole! Would any of the girls like to start their own thread? My Nicole has expressed some mild interest in getting to know some of the other teens going on the trip, she was a little lonely last time.

I read Mandy's Trip notes from her last cruise and she mentioned wearing a hat so others could find her. There is a site called Cafepress.com. We could make a shirt design and upload it to cafepress and then anyone of the group that wants to could order a t-shirt, there are no minimum numbers or any thing, no obligations and it is free to upload an image. Let me know what you think!


What is a fish extender?

Here are our family stats for the record

Diane ( 44)
Tom ( 45)
Nicole (16)
Rebecca ( 12) gymnast
Samantha ( 7)
SIL Lynn ( 40 something) Single
MIL Shirley (60 something) DVC member for about 12 years
FIL Bob ( 72) They are the wonderful people taking us on our second Disney cruise!!

Welcome Heather!

Does any one have any pets? we have 2 Tibetian Spaniels and 6 cats!!!

WOW, 6 cats! We have a bunny named Chewbacca and a fish named Capt. Jack Sparrow.

I asked Tori about a teen thread and she thought it would be a good idea.

Lost is on here. Not sure if I will watch or record it. Tomorrow I will be traveling so I'm sure I'll have a ton to catch up on when I get home.

Hope Becky has a great sleepover.
