Canadian Buffoon's Disney With a Teen Vacation - 08/13 - The Wrap

[Thumper_Man]

Jumping on the bandwagon are we?

It's better to jump on the wagon then to get run over by it.

 

[pkondz]

My son has his First Communion on Saturday!

That's tomorrow!
And congrats to your son!

The parents process in with the communicant, and we go up with him when he receives the sacrament for the first time.. I think I'm more nervous than he is about the whole thing! I didn't think we had to process in with him! haha

Relax, you'll both be fine.

 

[pkondz]

Oh the horror - forgot the bonus points! I bequeath my bonus points reminder to Liesa!

Noted.

I doubt he'll allow it.. but goody, goody, goody!! LOLOLOL!

You would be correct. One bonus per person limit.

(I have about as much luck in winning this game as I have getting my DH to let me get a new fridge.)

So! You're getting a new fridge! Congrats!

Okay, so you are a tad behind.
But I can tell you that you are not out of the running.

 

[pkondz]

Try not to be the mom that cries, not that I did or anything.

 

[pkondz]

But who am I kidding? i'll be an emotional wreck!

Could you ask your DH to videotape you and post it here?

Thanks.

The day before I'm being baptized, my mom is out for a run, trips, and falls face first on the concrete sidewalk. So she shows up that Sunday with a shiner, bruised lip, and one stitch in her nose.

Oops! Talk about perfect (imperfect?) timing!

We don't have any family pictures from that day.

Gee, I wonder why not?

 

[pkondz]

It's better to jump on the wagon then to get run over by it.

Or to fall off it.

 

[orangecats2]

Oh the horror! Can I have bonus points? Pretty please with zebra domes on top?

How long do I have for bonus questions?

 

[pkondz]

Oh the horror!

Noted. And.... there you are!
I was waiting for a few people to post and you were one of them.

Can I have bonus points? Pretty please with zebra domes on top?

Sure.

How long do I have for bonus questions?

Not sure. I might post in as little as a few hours from now,
depending on how much I type between then and now.
But it's looking more like Friday or possibly Saturday.

 

[Mrs T 2009]

Could you ask your DH to videotape you and post it here?

Thanks.

No photos or videos allowed.. Father says it isn't liturgically correct, and takes away from the sacrament... SORRY! I should look for my wedding photo of my walking down the aisle. I was a balling mess- and the photographer had to use eyes from another photo because every shot he had of me, my eyes were closed. lol and I had to stop saying my vows I was crying... I hate emotions hahaha

That's good. I agree with him.
If memory serves, we had photos with the bishop...
after the mass.

OMG, that's hilarious!

First chunk of the next update is done.
But I'm running out of steam.
Might be because it's 1:30am.

Oh good. That means I will be home by the time that I have to reply. More time when I'm not thinking about packing up, or rushing off to a park.

It'll be up today or tomorrow,
depending on how the day goes.
It's written, just needs proofing.

And yes, I saw you updated
but I'm trying to get this done first.

 

[TheLittleKatie]

I'M HERE! Phew that was a close one

So, what to do now?
Ruby wants to go shopping.
That means, going into every and any store
that I wouldn't enter if you paid me.

"Hey!" Ruby says... anytime...
"Wanna go shopping with me?"

I just back away slowly
and hope she'll forget I exist.

Hahahah this is also my life with Jamie What is with you men and shopping??!!

When spring comes, she puts all the winter stuff away.
And vice versa in the fall.
I hate that.

This is me too!!!! It seems Ruby and I are the same person.

I considered getting this cool cat gun I found,

WAT.

They didn't have a puppy gun, so we left.

What did I just read?!??!

"Just out of curiosity." I said. "How much is it?"
I figured it would be at least $800 and probably more.
But you never know.
If it was somewhere around the $200 range,
I might consider it.
"It's $1,200." He says.

Why is Hawaii so expensive???!!

Beautiful. Wowee in Maui.

I sees it! And this is a GREAT photo! Looks like an advertisement.

Suddenly Kay let out a squeak.
"What's wrong?" I asked.
"I almost got the bottom of my pants wet!" She replied.

Wow. That would've been tragic!
Getting wet... at the ocean...

A moment later... the inevitable.
"Aigh!"
"What!?!?"
"I got wet!"

Oh, the horror.

Oh no! Sucks that she wasn't somewhere warm where they would dry in an instant.. WAIT.

Say "Oh the horror" for bonus points!

OH THE HORA!

(...Oh the horror! - Just so that I don't miss out on points on a technicality.)

It was like she was involved in an art-heist or something.
"You keep watch while I get the goods!"

I hope she actually said this

Wowweeee in Mauiiii.

Anyone want to relax and just enjoy the beach?
"Yeah!"
Well too bad! We're off to the next spot on our agenda.

Spoken like a true Disney tourist!!!

Woweee.

The teeth were formed during Maui's last volcanic lava flow.
The lava reached the ocean and the waves and wind
pushed the lava into these vertical "teeth".

Every day is a school day at pkondz's house.

We joined them and that was the end to our first
full day in Hawaii.

YAY!

Only one more full day to go!

BOOOO.

Sorry if this chapter was a bit dull.

NEVER.

Hahahah awwwww.

6. TWO.

[TheLittleKatie]

Hi folks. Shout-outs a little later, got stuff to do first.
But wanted to share with ya'll something that happened last night.
Picked up a little something.
Sorry for the pic quality. Low light and using my iPod.
Kay seems pretty pleased with the purchase.

And if you're curious, she's about an 8 weeks old Keeshond.

OHHH MYYY GODDDDD

 

[pkondz]

I'M HERE! Phew that was a close one

Aaaannnddd... there's the other one I was waiting for.
Now just got to get okitty2 to post her answers...

Hahahah this is also my life with Jamie What is with you men and shopping??!!

It sucks the life and soul out of us.
We can play football (any genre) for hours,
but get us in a shopping mall and we're just done.

Why do you think there are benches in malls?

BTW, have you seen this?
Or more importantly, has Jamie?

This is me too!!!! It seems Ruby and I are the same person.

So, you're both likely to hit me
if I say the wrong thing?
(Which is... frequent.)

WAT.

I WANT to know WHAT that word is.

What did I just read?!??!

This:

They didn't have a puppy gun, so we left.

Why is Hawaii so expensive???!!

I believe the technical answer is
because everything needs to be imported.
The real reason though,
is because suckers like me will pay
exorbitant prices for stuff.

Beautiful. Wowee in Maui.

I sees it! And this is a GREAT photo! Looks like an advertisement.

Thanks!

Oh no! Sucks that she wasn't somewhere warm where they would dry in an instant.. WAIT.

OH THE HORA!

Noted.

(...Oh the horror! - Just so that I don't miss out on points on a technicality.)

Nah. I gotcher back.

I have zero idea what this is!
(I mean beside the obvious traditional wedding part.)

I hope she actually said this

Umm.... Sure!

Wowweeee in Mauiiii.

Spoken like a true Disney tourist!!!

Gotta get the money's worth!

Woweee.

You forgot the "Mauiiii" part.

Every day is a school day at pkondz's house.

So you're saying you'd hate
living here with a cold passion.

BOOOO.

Yeah. That's pretty much how I felt about it too.

NEVER.

Aw, thanks Katie. You're the best.

Hahahah awwwww.

So you laugh at a giraffe's demise!

Wow. That's cold, man.

These are tough questions man.

I ain't just gonna give away these prizes!

1. 7:30am!

OHHH MYYY GODDDDD

It's a good thing I'm happily married.
She's a total chick magnet.
Women are actually looking at me and smiling
as opposed to the usual shudder of repugnance.
Frankly, it's a refreshing change.

 

[pkondz]

Slight reprieve for those of you
who haven't posted answers yet.
The update's pretty much done,
but half of it's at work.
I had to take a sick day since my back's
been bothering me so much lately.
But I'll be there tomorrow.
And posting tomorrow.
So dawdlers beware!

[MHSweb79]

Hiding out at my folks' house in Florida, eagerly awaiting the next update! (Can't post on FB anything about being here, not because my house will get robbed (DD is home) but because I have 3 cousins and an aunt scattered around the state that we're not visiting. We'll never hear the end of it!)
Then off for 2 days at Disney- zippety doo dah!
