Amy, I'm going to vote for .

Goodnight Jen.

Daniel has an eye appt..he may need glasses.

How did he make out?

well I just made my down payment to WDW. Its official we are going to disney.

now to keep it a secret from Olivia

why?

So, we're off to Build-A-Bear and then the birthday lunch.

What did she get?

DH just called. He is off today but he had to go in for a meeting (they do that to him ALL the time ). They FINALLY got around to drawing for the prizes they were supposed to draw for on Super Bowl Sunday. Prompt bunch of folks, I tell ya'!
So the prizes were flat screen TVs, dSLR cameras (better than the one DH has now), a suite at a TX Rangers game, all sorts of other really good stuff. So what does DH win? A tent, a lantern and a camping grill. We HAVE a tent that nobody ever uses, we have a camping lantern, and we have 2 HUGE grills on our balcony which I am sure our neighbors just love. We need to get rid of one but DH isn't sure he can get it down the stairs by himself. Anyway, he didn't even bring the prizes home because he doesn't want them. He is hoping to get someone to trade with him, but I bet that won't happen. If the people who won the cameras don't want them they will sell them, not trade for camping equipment. I hate that DH works so hard and he always gets the short end of the stick. He got nothing at the Christmas party because they ran so LATE and so far off schedule, and now he gets nothing for busting his tail for Super Bowl. Kind of sucks.

POST 11,111!​

COOL!

How did he make out?

He needs glasses for distance. He got a cute silver pair. I pick them up in a few days so he should have them for back to school on Monday. So now all of us have glasses except for Sophie.

Did you keep the DDP with your AP rate? It was crazy this morning. I tried to check on the passholder site an hour or so ago & it only gives me Fort Wilderness Cabins as an option!

I've PM'd Kristine. I hope to hear from her soon. I'm getting worried.

Tell her we're all thinking of her!

Amy,
I am going to say "girl".

Then the Hardman's would be like our families.

Our kids have been lucky so far but they are probably going to be in glasses. DH's eyes are really bad as are all his siblings. I need glasses and 4 of 5 siblings wear glasses.



The Cabins are nice if you have a car. REALLY quiet!!!

It's great fun...but Daniel now wants a baby brother!!!!!!

 

[bear74]

why?

Because last time she drove all of us crazy asking if it was time to go yet. We are driving most likely and I think she might drive me on the drive asking if we are their yet.

That is what I grew up with. I was the first princess. After I got married, my parents adopted a 9 year old so we did end up with two pirates. A couple of years after he graduated, he dropped off the face of the earth. We do now have mail communication with him.

I tried looking here but it is too cold to see anything!

The girls are really enjoying going out every 10 minutes for about 15 seconds.

Congrats Terry!

Where's Stephanie? How has she been?

She is doing great. Just has been so busy lately.

We haven't even been able to go out for lunch this week.

Hopefully we can next week.

Glad to hear she is doing well.. Tell her we miss her.

Amy, I predict the baby will be a boy. Or a girl.

 

[Tinkaroo]

well I just made my down payment to WDW. Its official we are going to disney.

We are both feeling a bit better. Alan even managed to make it to work today, so I have the quiet house to myself. I'm pampering myself with tea and honey for my throat. It's still scratchy, but not sore. Thank heaven for Zicam!

Great news!

congrats on the weight loss and the change in your lifestyle, Tia!

Ditto!

Thanks for all the well wishes everyone.

Today, I feel like I'm almost back to the land of the living. After five days off, poor Kevin had to trudge off to work in terrible weather. I was relieved school was called off for Alyssa, giving me one more day to recoup. Unfortunately, I've been doing nothing but laundry. I had washed all the sheets before we left for my mom's, but I could still smell the sickness (gotta love heightened pregnancy senses ), so I washed them all again. I still can't see my basement floor, since I'm a week behind on the regular loads. Fun, fun.

I'm looking forward to eating some real food for dinner. I'm trying out Chanon's pork tenderloin recipe. Smells yummy!

I tried my best to skim the last 60 pages, and it seems the theme has been we've all been sick! Thank goodness this is a short month, and hopefully, we will all have a much better (and warmer) March.

Tia, Happy Birthday to Terra! The pictures you posted were great, and that is so cool that you customized the plates and cups! Congratulations on your weight loss, too.

Denise, I certainly hope you find some answers for John's loss of taste at his next appointment!

Lots of for all the Disney trip planning, down payments, and airfare rates! I'm living vicariously through you all since our next trip isn't until January 2009!

Which reminds me, there are only two days left to make your gender predictions for Hardman baby #3.

Hope everyone is having a great day!

Glad you're feeling a bit better, Amy! I'm predicting .

I tried this recipe on Sunday, and it was excellent! I'm highly recommending this one:

Cajun Pork Tenderloin with Garlic Butter

Dry rub:
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper
4 tsp. paprika
1 tsp. black pepper
1 tsp. garlic powder

2 pork tenderloins
2 Tbsp butter
1/2 tsp. garlic powder

In a small bowl combine dry rub ingredients. Rub thoroughly into the pork and let sit for 30 minutes. Grill or pan sear/oven finish until done - 170 degrees internal temp. Melt butter and stir in garlic powder. Slice tenderloin on the bias and pour garlic butter over.

I doubled the garlic butter, and it was heavenly! Not too spicy, but full of flavor, and very moist!!!

Wow - sounds yummy!

So Jim had a cold that messed with his equillibrium...he will not be dying any time soon. Maybe he'll listen to his wife????

I do believe though that I've now got his cold....why oh why did he feel the need to share???

Oh no, not you, too.

 

[tinker1bell]

WOW the eclipse is soooo cool!!!!

It is almost covered. Hal was just saying he hopes our oldest son was able to get pictures of it.

Terry - please tell Stephanie I said, "HI!!!!" too... I miss her!

You're always too busy for me.
