8/17/08 Captain Jack's Repossession Repo Cruise to PC thru TPC Part 4

[lbgraves]

I'd love to get DS involved in FIRST Lego and then the HS robotics one. My company is a big sponsor here in IL, but our school doesn't seem to be involved in it and I am not sure how to motivate them. They brought the robot that won the national championship in the HS (non-Lego) competition to our offices last year (we were the sponsor of the winning team) and my son was so interested in hearing how they built it.

Maybe he will be the engineer I always wanted to be. (Went to school to be an engineer and got sidetracked along the way)

DS will take after his daddy for sure. DH is an engineer...aerospace right now. He graduate from VATech...like his three brother, dad, & GP...with a degree in engineering.

That is SO COOL!!!! I bet that sites like snapfish have things like that available & saving the file in a JPEG format would work out great.

The shipping box had a Walmart return address on it, I'm guessing it must have been done at the Walmart Photo Center.

Now back to my reading.

DD loves Vernors. I've never been crazy about it. Too much ginger. But I do like Vernors floats!

Anybody remember Sanders hot fudge sundaes or hot fudge cream puffs?

You don't have to just remember them. Morley Candy sells the Sanders toppings and I think they offer the sundaes in their stores.

you should see the pictures - yesterday they showed a guy in Mexico, NY shoveling off his roof and the snow was up to his chest!!! QUOTE]


Like My DH always says the only ice/snow I want to see is in my glass!!!!

Thanks Lisa, I actually have to email you my kids age at time of cruise, since I gave you their current ages, sorry for the extra work, they will be 12 and 9.

Silly swabby, trix are for kids!

No need, already updated.

Oh yes!!! He has gotten several compliments. He has worn it on other non-Disney cruises (shhh!!! don't tell Mickey) and has had people stop in the hallways to comment or bring their spouses over to check him out. He doesn't seem to mind the attention.

Laura , I see you have been on the Destiny twice ....I have a funny story to tell all of you ...now dont think I am nuts but we also have been on the Destiny and thought what a great name for a baby girl ...We believe that our DS was concieved on the ship soooo , whne we found out DW was pregnant we were hoping for a girl , we were going to Name her Destiny Michelle , well as luck would have it , we found out during the ultrasound that we were having a Boy ..so now the rush was on for a name ...So what we did was just take the Y off of Detsiny to make Destin and then his middle name is Anthony ...so if you say Destin Anthony together it almost sounds like Destiny .....

So thats my corny story ...I doubt there will be more

 

[lbgraves]

Wow this is strange! I have caught up from this morning and the kids are being quiet & getting along!

BTW, I was going to e-mail you. I apparently was so confused over my son Thomas' age, I must have left him off my e-mail altogether as he is not listed on the site. He will be 11 when we start cruising.

I'm in Wyandotte and they just opened a Sanders! Haven't been yet. Our Strohs ice cream place carries Sanders toppings on thier ice cream. I have a GF in TN who when she comes up drags me to White Castle! I don't go there very often. We went a couple of weeks ago, just had a craving and the next day at work I was suffering! My boss got a kick out of it when I told him we went there. He told me never on a work night only the weekend!

That is an awesome story. Kind of like my BIL and SIL naming their baby Victoria because every time he went out of town he would bring SIL something home from Victoria Secrets.

By the way, we are doing the Destiny again this October. Last year we missed Dominica because of a Medical Emergency on the ship the night before port and they had to turn the ship around and go back to St. Thomas. Unfortunately, unless you were up in the middle of the night you had not clue about this and they didn't announce that we were missing Dominica until it was about time to be docking. Hows that for a bummer.
So we are going to try it again and they have added a few new ports. Barbados ; St. Lucia, WI ; Antigua ; so it won't be a total repeat cruise.

Oh my.....does Destin know this story? I can see him getting endlessly teased if the rest of the family knows all about it. Poor kid.

Be afraid! Be very afraid! Quite is when they do stuff.

Me thinks that the Captain will reconsider this one.
