Dancing around the world~One pole at a time~~~Return of the prodigal trip reporter...

[lilpapsgirl]

I'm really glad you have started your TR, Cherie...I can't wait to read more!!
I am also glad that you got your kitchen done. Your backsplash looks beautiful.

 

[winkers]

It's so YOU, Dahling....

I miss Four For A Dollar, too!


Kathy

ahh, that's their name! I couldn't think of it and was too lazy to look for it!

:
The kitchen looks great!! I love the double oven! does it come in handy? Another question,,,,,,,,why on earth did the contractors listen to your MIL on the kitchen design

gonna go to bed now,,still have to read Djays little story/fairytale. and the new installment. will get to that tomorrow.
I love Ethans cake! great job..he got so tall since I last ''saw'' him!!
I`ve had my share of Blue and Gold dinners.

I love my double oven! It's great to bake cookies...it goes so much faster!
The kitchen fiasco is a long story and shoots my blood pressure up just thinking about it.
Ethan is almost a head taller than everyone else in his class, and he's close to catching up to Hunter!

Hi Cherie, love your pictures and story telling. My son is a sophomore in college now, so no more scouts. The Eagle Scout project was the most time consuming, but when it is finished I was so proud! Love the cake and your beautiful kitchen. You are so much fun to read along with every night!:

Evan will be doing his eagle this summer and I'm not looking forward to that!
I'm glad you're enjoying the report!

One more pole down. Oh so many more to go.

That hat was too cute on you!! DJ was fairly stylin' too.

I love hats, but I always feel like a dork wearing them.

I love Beauty and the Beast too. I am still bummed out about Four for a Dollar being gone . I am glad you didn't get your picture out for the see thru guy ! The hat pictures are so cute. The Swingin in the Rain picture was priceless.

did I mention that shorts guy obviously was not wearing anything under them?

Every time I see a pole, I will think of you...

The cake turned out very cute!

Cherie's first pole of the trip!!!

Maybe you got a late start because you were still on West Coast time?

I bet those seersucker shorts were quite a sight!

there are poles everywhere in disney! I had never noticed that before.

I am shocked sometimes by what people will wear to Disneyworld

I'm frequently shocked by what people wear all the time!

The cake turned out great! And it fits in nicely with what we were talking about on my PTR yesterday. Food coloring makes for interesting visits to the bathroom.

yes, it does! With the amount of food coloring I used, there's probably a few boys with blue poo today.

Sad to say but I have never seen The Beauty and the Beast show there.

You haven't seen it???? You must go next time!

Quick thinking on the cake. I turned out great. Danielle is doing her first year of Girl Scouts and tonight we have to work the Cookie Booth.

I love your back splash. Your kitchen looks so warm and inviting. When can we come to dinner?

Love the pole dancing! How many more pole to go?

I'm so glad that the boys don't sell cookies! i hate fundraisers!
:you're welcome for dinner any time!
I didn't keep track of how man poles..

Wow the cake looked cool was that all you? I am not that creative

I had the basic idea and Ethan picked out the wheels and extras

Funny YOU should metion that- I learned a hard lesson on Jordan's thread. I was sipping my coffee and SOMEONE posted a cartoon of a guy wearing a thong -WINKERS- And as to not spit coffee on my computer, I tried to hold it in and coffee came out my nose- Lesson learned!

well, that's one way to clean out the sinuses

Unintended peep tongue!

Love the backsplash.

I'm sure it was a little harder to get up to hit the parks since you were still on west coast time too.

I didn't notice the tongue before!

Does that pole dancing smiley have a butt crack??? That is one of the funniest things I've ever seen!

I think it does!!

That is exactly what went through my mind as I watched it .... yes I sat there and watched it do its thing, while laughing of course!

And I do believe it does !!!

I had to watch it a few times because at one point the hands look like something else!

At any rate, clearly none of that happened and you swung and sung! Love the pics!! Looks like a very promising start to the trip.

the swingin on that pole was d.jay's idea!

I am late but I made it here. Our computer has been with the geek squad ( long story ). THANK YOU SOOOOOOOOO much for the postcard Grace was so excited she slept with it for her nap that day and also that night. I told her that the princesses missed her and want her to come visit them at Disney World. You are so sweet. I wish I could have been there to meet all of you in person. I can't wait to find out how the trip went. I love your new kitchen. I might drop by to drink coffee with you one day. LOL! You never know...............

Laura! I'm so glad you got the card! I had fun doing it and I'm glad Grace loved it!
Drop by any time!

The cake is adorable. I need to bring in some pound cakes and let my class just decorate them next time I get the urge to "cook" with them.

What a great morning a DHS! It's definitely difficult to take a laid-back approach to touring, but sometimes it's nice.

The shorts must have been quite a sight

I love the pink Vera and pink Minnie t-shirt combo

I can't imagine cooking with a group of kids!!!

the shorts should have come with a warning!
I loved my new Vera too!

 

[GreatBiscuit]

for relaxing.

on the short wait times at DHS.

on girly shorts man.

on the hats

on the pole. (For reason which will become even more obvious in a few moments.)

 

[Underdog369]

Hey Am I the elderley lady!!!

nope! That would be my mom.

I would have hoped you wouldn't have had to pay for something you never agreed upon. I don't want to rub anymore salt into that wound so I'll shut up now.
It looks so beautiful, I'm excited to see the floors and back splash!!
I know you'll be really happy with it. I was wondering what company you all went with for windows? I've been thinking about doing our windows and wonder if I'm willing to give up going to WDW after our next vaca there to do it. Hmmm, let's see....do I want a house with lower electric bills or WDW again in a couple of years??? Hmmmm.....

One of three for the windows: Local company named Ziggys, Home Depot, or Lowes. I am 95% sure it was Lowes. We had to special order them.

I mean,,I`m very sorry to hear all this happened to you. it must have sucked..who am I kidding!!



Never thought of it that way!

**************************
The kitchen looks great!! I love the double oven! does it come in handy? Another question,,,,,,,,why on earth did the contractors listen to your MIL on the kitchen design?!! especially if its not her house and she did not hire them, and why would a good contractor actually put the stairs there anyway! I would put the blame at 60/40 for that one!

gonna go to bed now,,still have to read Djays little story/fairytale. and the new installment. will get to that tomorrow.
I love Ethans cake! great job..he got so tall since I last ''saw'' him!!
I`ve had my share of Blue and Gold dinners.

Regarding the "Swinging in the Rain" picture, I may be the enabler, but Cherie started the whole pole dancing thing. I just made suggestions of which poles and where.

 

[Sleepingbooty]

Oh, Cherie - I LOVE your backsplash! Those inset tiles are gorgeous - very Arts & Crafts style. They would look right at home at the Grand Californian!

I never got to see Four for a Dollar, we didn't make it to that show the first couple years we went, and now its too late.

 

[rentayenta]

10 am? No plan? Are you trying to kill me?


Top of the page too!!!

 

[Klashy]

Love your backsplash, it's gorgeous!

On our last trip my family decided it would be a relaxing vacation. Yeah, I'm not one for relaxing Disney vacations, too much to do! We never made it to the parks before 9:30 and it drove.me.crazy. But a fun time anyway. I am with you on getting one of those flags!

 

[DisneyJo]

How did I miss you'd started this???? You need to pimp better

I'm loving your new kitchen and wow Ethan's hair has gotten long!

It sounds as though you're having loads of fun already but then you always do

 

[englishrose47]

Okay I sleep , I work and I miss 4 yes 4 pages !!!

See Cherie DJ is the ENABLER!!! He "suggested " the Pole !! First hand I know how persuasive his Suggestions are!!!

Loved the cake !!They sell Pound cake at the Dollar Tree Hmmm I need some ideas to do one for The Easter Tea at the Group Home !!!
Love the Back splash !!!!

 

[winkers]

great minds think alike....or is it deranged minds?

the tile turned out better than I had expected!

!

nope, just testing to see if you're paying attention.

I feel almost disoriented if we aren't there at rope drop...I'm just not on my game.

I guess I need to practice my pimp skills.
His hair is way too long, it's getting cut tomorrow.

I guess you shouldn't be sleeping or working.

I thought you make triffle for your work tea?

 

[GreatBiscuit]

All great minds are slightly deranged. It's the price we pay for genius.

I do make Trifle but I can make cake too !! Actually I thought they might enjoy decorating a Train!!

are you trying to have a status change from manager to resident?

 

[Liz]

Love your "swingin' in the rain" pics! And your little purse is so cute and matchy with your cute top! I would be having a hard time with a rest/relaxation vacation but the older I get the better it sounds!

Your kitchen is lovely by the way! I bet you are so glad to have it finished!

 

[*Seanaci*]

We seem to have that affect on many and yet we are really soo boring straitlaced , shy etc etc
As for drinking coffee while readin the Dis it is NOT a good idea !! Also you need to alert the Local Paddy Wagon not to respond to calls from your family that YOU HAVE LOST IT!!!!!

Lol. Yup. That's me. My husband knows when I'm cracking up laughing, I'm just DISing.

They won't call the wagon, they know I lost it a looong time ago

*nods* Same here.

Well, I survived pack meeting.

since my kitchen isn't put together yet, I bought some pound cake from the bakery and Ethan turned it into the blue and gold express....

He had a lot of fun making it and I came out with fingers dyed blue.

Looks great! The cake and the backsplash!

Okay I sleep , I work and I miss 4 yes 4 pages !!!

See Cherie DJ is the ENABLER!!! He "suggested " the Pole !! First hand I know how persuasive his Suggestions are!!!

Lol. I'm glad my husband isn't that suggestive. I'd be in big trouble.

 

[carrieannie]

did I mention that shorts guy obviously was not wearing anything under them?

I missed that part!!!!

 

[englishrose47]

good point
