What do you guys think?

Wow :eek: That sounds like a very full itenerary. I hope that you can keep up the pace and see everything that you are planning to.

Have you guys seen the video of Turtle Talk, with a behind the scenes look at how it works? It's a really great video, if you're interested! It's got a complete show (which might be the best I've seen), as well as video clips during it of... "backstage" :)

Very nice video. Chris, Colby and I enjoyed it. I thought that things were very different behind the scenes :confused3



fruit - strawberries
veggie - corn
meat - steak
treat - chocolate

so I may or may not have a broken wrist:confused3 Right now my thumb is splinted....at the very least I have contused my bone at the most I have a fractured wrist. I got vicodin and an order to come back in a week when the swelling has gone down. He took pity on me and ordered the vicodin when I told him it was my writing hand:rotfl2:

:headache: That's not the best news. I hope that the vicodin helps. Maybe it will clear on its own when the swelling goes down.

Well, thanks to my wonderful husband and youngest daughter, Bernadette's Disney tapes/CD's and a check are on the way to her. I boxed it up and they dropped it off for me. Amy's window clings are also finally on their way.

Tammi & Deb, Chuck is making sure your pictures get packaged properly and will send those by Friday. He has the stuff needed at his office. I've been worried about mailing them because I just didn't have anything sturdy enough and I didn't want to have them get bent after all the time we spent taking good care of them when we got them.

I think that is everything I'm supposed to send now. I'm holding onto Elizabeth's AP pin until I get the second one.

Am I missing anyone?

Very cool. I plan to frame them and hang our Disney prints/ photos etc in our hallway. Let me know how much I owe you.

Wow. I don't know that anyone else said steak but you & I. I've seen lots & lots of chicken and one pork.

You and I matched the first three and I went back and forth between chocolate and vanilla ice cream. I finally chose vanilla ice cream because I could have a strawberry sundae once in a while. When I was your age, chocolate would have won hands down. I was a major chocoholic. It doesn't agree with me in large quantities any more.

I look forward to seeing pictures of them hanging in the hallway once all the work is done.
 

Does anyone watch John and Kate plus Eight? I'm wondering if I could pull off her haircut. It looks great on her and seems like it would be easy, I just wonder how I would look with it :confused3

is there pic somewhere online of it??
 
What little reprieve I got from the vicodin is starting to wear off....I am going to try and read a little and go nighty night!

May everybody have sweet dreams!!

I wish they would have shown how Crush's lips sync to what the man is saying. It's amazing.
 
Found a question on the cb that I thought I'd ask here.

If you only had one food in each category to eat for the rest of your life what would they be?

fruit - watermelon
veggie - green beans
meat - chicken
treat - chocolate oatmeal nobake cookies
 
Hi all...Just wanted to pop in for a minute. It's been busy around here and since it's been beautiful outside the kids have wanted nothing other than to be outside. I've also baked 3 cakes so far with one more to go. My cousin's graduation party is Friday night and she asked me to make her cake. I also made one that I will decorate for Emma's last Brownie meeting tonight. I figured I also make one for all the parents too. That one is done but it turned out so good that I am going to make it for my cousin's party as the decorated cake is pretty small.

And tomorrow is Emma's field day at school (Eric and I are helping out- me in the morning and him in the afternoon) and in the evening Emma and I are camping with her Brownie troop as part of their bridging ceremony. My mom is taking Mo and Lucy to my cousin's party as Eric has to go to Emma's soccer practice.

And an update on Molly: She has been fever free since Tuesday morning. She complains every once in a while about her mouth hurting but seems fine otherwise. She saw her ENT yesterday and had her ear tubes pulled out. We also pushed for allergy testing and/or a sleep study. The doctor said her nose shows no signs of allergies- it's not irritated. He agreed that she sounds very congested though and thinks that the sleep study will give us more answers. I have a feeling that she will have sleep apnea, Emma did and Molly has pretty much the same issues. It frustrates me that she is always congested and we can't figure out what the cause is.


I hope everyone is well. Sending :hug:'s and :wizard: your way.
 
The boys are off to school. Hunter has a field trip today and he was very excited. I made sure that he was well medicated for his foot issues and dressed in plenty of layers as it is in the 30s now and will be near 80 this afternoon. He wasn't thrilled with all the layers, but he'll thank me later. Nick had the runs last night and he is very nervous that it will come back at school, but the concert is tonight and he wants to go so he went to school.

I will start painting pretty soon. I'm hoping to get a lot done today :wizard:
