Alohaaaaa!!! Let's do the hula!!!!!! TR LINK ADDED

Hey Heather:goodvibes,

So sorry to hear Hollie is sick! My own 3 were sick last week with a touch of the flu as well. Every 2 days, someone new was sick!:sick: Hope she feels better soon and can enjoy her b-day. A Lilo & Stitch party sounds cool!:goodvibes
I was so glad she was feeling better by the time the party got here. She was still tired and a little ill, but no fever! yay

Your plans look fabulous.:thumbsup2 Although I'm bummed because we literally are leaving that Monday the 7th for home and you're coming in that same day! I'd have loved to try for a meet.:goodvibes
Awww man!!! Well, I wish we could be there the same time! I would have loved to have met too! :(


How cool about Universal and your mil's friend! I'm sure Hollie will be tickled with all the character interaction there, so fun! I'm so torn because I really, REALLY want to do the Wizarding World of HP this upcoming trip but I keep thinking it will still be too crowded. But we have a day we're planning to spend at the resort anyway so maybe we'll just hop on over to Universal! Did you see the new movie yet? It was amazing!:goodvibes
I think Hollie is gonna love the character interaction there! She loved seeing Scooby and Spongebob the last time we were there so if she gets a little VIP action, she is gonna think she is so cool!! lol
Yes, I loved it!!!!! I really want to go and see it again!


Lucky you, planning another trip for September! Adults only sounds heavenly, not that I don't love my kids but ahhhhh, the freedom to walk around and see what I want sounds sweet!

We're due for some snow as well tomorrow, my oldest DD11 has been watching the weather like a hawk just hoping for it.

I am gonna enjoy that adult only trip, but I will miss my girls like crazy!!!

Oh wow, did you guys get snow???? LOL I don't blame your sweet DD! I would be watching the weather too!!

Feel better soon, Hollie!
A party when she gets back to school sounds like something to look forward to after all the other partying has died down.

That is what I figured. She will like it when its not so crazy around school :)

Yay for getting extra perks, even though it is at that other park.

Have fun planning and dreaming about your wonderful winter trip. I know that after all of the holiday hulabaloo, it'll seem like no time until both our trips will be upon us. :cool1:
LOL..I know too bad its the "other park" lol

I am ready for that winter trip! I just love the mountains!

I keep saying I am going to book our summer trip on the next payday, but every time I do, something comes to grab that deposit money. :headache: This time, it was paying the tax on the car I just bought. :sad2: I've gotta get in done in the next couple of paychecks, though, or Pop might fill up without us for the 4th of July. :eek:

Enjoy your time with Hollie at home. Hope she is better and has a fun Christmas party tomorrow. :santa:

I sure hope they don't fill up before you get your reservations :)

Hope Hollie feels better soon! Did your work close today or do you have to head in? They called school for today -- the roads were sooo bad. My BIL was stuck on I75 for five hours last night trying to get home.

Aw, thank you Jackie! Oh no, we were open! I went in an hour late! This will make you laugh. I started to pull out of my driveway and I started sliding!! Straight down our hilly driveway. I was literally screaming at the top of my lungs, "Please Lord don't let me hit my Christmas decorations!! Save the light up Candy Canes!!" lol I didn't hit them, I hit the garbage can and it went flying across the road! lol

Poor Hollie! I hope she starts to feel better by tomorrow so she can join in on the Christmas party fun at school, I'm sure she doesn't want to miss that!

Your plans look fantastic! How VERY cool about Universal! I'm sure that will be a ton of fun!

That weather sounds scary, it's not even that bad here yet! We've gotten a few flurries, but no ice. At least if it keeps up you know you'll know you'll be escaping to beautiful Florida in less than 2 months!

Thanks girl! She got to go to her party. We told her she could leave with us and go home early, but they were gonna watch the Polar Express so she wanted to stay! lol

I wish it would flurry down here and at least stick! lol

Sorry to hear about Hollie. That flu bug is going around here too.
WOOHOO for the bonus perks at Universal. It helps to know someone. :thumbsup2

I wish the flu bug would disappear! lol
It sure does! ;)

How exciting about Universal. I really want to get over and see the Harry Potter World

I do too! My mom still wants to plan her girls only trip with the grandbabies to visit the Harry Potter world. I am excited about it!

I subbing a way bit late in the game but I just have to. Your daughter has the best name ever! :yay:

Hollie

Aww, :welcome:
LOL well, I think you have a wonderful name too!!

I hope Hollie has a fun and exciting birthday!

I just love having jam packed weekends with my kids! Even when it is exhausting I treasure the time with them!! It drives DH crazy when we have so much planned :)

Thank you so much! I will post pictures very soon!

I know, you are so exhausted but you have a wonderful time! Oh my DH gets mad because he is like, "you didn't tell me we were doing this or that" oh yes I did!!! lol

Happy Birthday Hollie

party::bday:party:

Awww, thank you so much! :)

Happy Birthday Hollie! party:

Hope she had a fun birthday!

Thank you so much!! She did and I promise to post pics soon!

Happy Birthday Hollie!!!

I only have a quick moment but I wanted to wish you, Chad, Hollie and Hannah a Merry Christmas! Have an awesome, fun filled holiday! How sweet that this is Hannah's 1st one too! Just think, last year at this time you were only a couple of months pregnant!:goodvibes Boy the time flies, doesn't it? Merry Christmas Heather!:goodvibes
 
Psst, have you seen our weather forecast for Christmas day??? :wizard:

Are you guys having a white Christmas?
Rumor has it that we are.
I hope it is just enough to be pretty
and
not enough to make travel dangerous.




Hollie, you were a beautiful little angel in your program!
You and Hannah have fun with all of your new Christmas toys.


Heather, have a great Christmas with your family!

There are hints of such a phenomenon coming our way! Fingers, toes, everything is crossed around here! We weren't going to tell the kids about the possibility if we could help it (we didn't want them to be disappointed), but Chelsea spotted the "special weather statement" icon on the desktop this morning. She clicked on it, and you could probably hear the squealing in Tennessee! :laughing:

Merry Christmas to your sweet family Jackie! :)
 
We got our White Christmas, Heather, and have the snowmen to prove it! :woohoo: Was Hollie in heaven?


Oh my goodness, she was beyond excited!! She still is. She begged me not to go into work this morning but I had too :(

We built a snow family Christmas day and I turned around and Hollie was kicking them over. I asked her why and I quote, "Well, they said it was too cold out here so they didn't want to stay. I wanted to bring them inside but they are too cold. So, I just mushed them back to being snow so they could be with their family." LOL

I'm wearing my new mickey mouse PJ's and slippers Totally in a disney mood!, thought your disney decorations were lovely, I'm trying to start collecting for when I move out and get my own tree!
 
I must confess that I am completely jealous of you guys having a white Christmas! :sad2: :) We had snow flurries but that was it! But I am so glad Hollie got to enjoy a white Christmas!! That story about the snowman family was hilarious!! :lmao: I can just picture the whole scene!!

LOL...I went out sideways again yesterday!! You would think that coming down my driveway it would just go straight instead of turning sideways, but nope!! lol

Awwww, I have to get me a new pair of mickey pj's! I love disney moods!! :)
Aw, thank you! I love to buy them at the disney store. They are always so cute!

So glad you guys got SNOW! We didn't get it on Christmas Day, but a huge blizzard on the 26th. The trains were a mess yesterday. But Henry had a ball outside! :goodvibes
 
I can't believe we will be in Disney soon!! YAY!!!

I promise to post my pics soon from all the activities we have had going on! But I wanted to update with trip stuff first!

I have no idea how the weather is in February down there. I do know I am packing jeans and then some long sleeve and short sleeve shirts. I can always layer and have a long sleeve underneath it. I am also trying to find a certain pair of boots to take down there. :)
Hollie and Hannah will be easy to pack for! Along with clothes, I have to remember baby food, formula, etc for Hannah. Oh, and her hurricane gel and motrin in case she decides to pop out more teeth! lol

If any of you have any past experiences down in Disney for the month of February please share! I want to know how your weather was down there at that time.

I do have all my ADR's wrote down for us. We are all getting excited! :)

Poor Hannah is sick right now. She has been coughing some and then started sounding wheezy. So, Chad took her to the doc yesterday and they said her ears and throat were fine. Everything looked good except they could hear a little bit of junk in her chest. So, my baby is having to do breathing treatments. Which she hates! :(

Hollie is enjoying her time out of school! She is just running around playing with all of her goodies!!

I am gonna post some pics today!
