Kind of weird seeing your daughters photo from this morning while at work. I told Cherie this morning to keep an eye out for you. Wow, another DIS meet and I missed it.
Didn't believe all the talk till you called me
Wait until you meet me! LOL! You may run in the other direction! 
LOL
My dh usually waits until the night before we leave -- and we usually have to leave our house by 2 or 3 am to get to the airport -- to start packing! He doesn't even look over his clothes before then! LOL! I, of course, will already have my siotcase and the kids waiting by the front door......
LOL
Some people just don't get it!
My DH included...
I still remember when we were first dating and I had mickey sweatshirts and a (tasteful! not gawdy!) mickey watch and sometimes wore disney scrunchies when I put my hair in ponytails- that he asked me when I was gonna stop wearing that stuff and grow up.... and I was like uh, never! (and I was right! LOL Although I did somehow stop wearing the watch. Where is that watch? hmmm)
Anyway, I'd love for my entire house to be all disney- but I figure I've done good to even get HIM to wear some disney shirts and just give up trying to get me to stop wearing it. The few Disney things we have (besides Rita's completely Disney Princess pink/white room) is the mickey smoothie maker and my eldest made me a wooden mickey head CD holder which is on top of my fridge (Stephanie- did you see it? LOL) but that's it. *sniff sniff* Maybe when I get old I'll be the old lady who's entire house is decorated with Mickey stuff. A girl can dream can't she? hehe
Atleast he takes me on Disney vacations and doesn't say a word about the KIDS rooms being decorated disney.... and hasn't said anything in years about what I wear..... I guess he's a keeper.
But, the rest of my downstairs is Western (not SouthWestern........ Cowboy Western). DH is in the Leather business and it just *fits* us. G'evenin'
I have my monkeys back. YAY! 2 weeks away was long enough for them to realize that they still like their mom
You guys kill me. My husband doesn't do ANY of the packing and last year I even set stuff out for him to help put in his suitcase and he STILL left it (ask Stacey about him having to beg off an undershirt from her husband cause my husband left the pkg of new undershirts on the bed). I can't let him pack... which is really scaring me since this time we aren't leaving TOGETHER. He's coming in later at the end of the week so he can work that week we're at DL. I'll have to pack what I can for him and then leave a list and pray pray pray he goes over the list to make sure he doesn't forget stuff! Pray with me please. LOL
Oh and no one will run from you! You're a delight.
If they run from you (if that's in reference to talking a lot) then they'll run SCREAMING from me. Consider yourselves warned......... we're talkative- the lot of us (not including DH but even he can get talking sometimes.... especially if it's about harleys or scuba diving LOL)
Which btw reminds me- I gotta get these kids set up with accounts on the pirate zone so they can talk to other kids and get to know them. They took right away to your kids.
Robert has been begging me to see Brian again (as if I'm in control of that? LOL) and Rita keeps asking if Claire is coming over again. LOL I keep telling them maybe someday..... and if not, they'll see them on the cruise! hehe
And Ruby has mentioned seeing Samantha again on the cruise.
I'm all for them diggin your kids..... maybe their sweet dispositions will rub off some on my um.... not so sweet kids. LOL
(okay so they can be sweet. it's summer.... ask me again when school is going because summers have been hard on me last year and this year. I hope it's just their ages and they grow out of this arguing phase... that I hope is just a phase. Lord please let this just be a phase they grow out of!)
And in all those years he has only forgot something once...and it was 2 wks ago when he went to England! LOL! He decided to change suitcases mid way through with packing and he left all of his socks in the 1st suitcase! LOL!
But, the other kids and I are here! LOL!
In the almost 29yrs we've been married I have never packed for dh....
so I have to click the quote button and respond individually- anyone else noticing this? It was on top of the fridge and all you can see from the front is the wooden mickey head that's on each end but you can only see one end. You'd have to go to the side of the fridge to see it's got it on both ends with dowels or whatever you'd call those where the CD's could sit there. I just love it cause she made it, and it showed she knew what I'd like! LOLI didn't see the mickey head cd holder. Maybe next time. I did see Rita's Pink princess room! LOL!
In the old house our den was filled with Disney.... Here it is going to be upstairs. I finished buying frames today for all of our DCL and a few WDW prints. They are going to be hung upstairs in the hallway.
I do have a 50th anniversay candy/gumball machine sitting on the hearth in the Family Room.
Dh just doesn't travel much- he's never gone anywhere except when we all go together on vacations AND he's really really REALLY bad at planning ahead for anything...... even with lists he's not good at it. I'm telling you, I have to do everything (except go to work for the paycheck- so I forgive him LOL) around here... or it wouldn't get done. He just has a bad memory or can't plan ahead or something. I don't know what it is. LOLIn the almost 29yrs we've been married I have never packed for dh....
I don't pack for Samantha either -- I think my kids are around 12 or so when they start packing all of their own stuff.
Thanks for the compliments on my kids -- you must have been too distract to see that Claire is a brat! LOL!
My kids would love to get togther with yours. I'll email you. Samantha is still out of town and won't be home for 11 days....... we are counting down the days.
geesh...... all because I wasn't there to help her REPACK? sigh...) Kind of weird seeing your daughters photo from this morning while at work. I told Cherie this morning to keep an eye out for you. Wow, another DIS meet and I missed it.
I don't pack for DH either...other than the t-**** we will wear to the parks or the tropical outfits for dinner. I did that once and packed the pants that were too small that he hadn't taken out of his closet.
Since it's after midnight EST I'm going to say:
Happy Anniversary Cheryl & John!!!
'ing
It was the first time that I had done that. It is going to take a while before this house is completely decorated........ And most of that furniture doesn't work in this house...... the kids HELP pack (like for vacations and camp/etc.) but I still oversee so they don't forget things either. I keep trying to let go of the reigns and it bites me in the but everytime. Like recently Ruby went to church camp for a week and I let her pack. She had the list of things she needed from the church- so I figured she'd do good, right?
WRONG.
She got everything she needed EXCEPT PAJAMAS. So she had to sleep in clothes. But hey I guess it could be worse. What's bad is she never comes home with everything (this time missing some toiletries, some panties, 1 sock to 2 different pairs of socks, and some BRAS.
