DIS Dads DDC XXVII: Penguins in Paradise!

[mm1971]

Welcome to the group and yes we do a bracket. I think Chris (DisDadDoc) set the past ones up. He is playing at WDW right now but I will ask him when he gets back.

CJ found us. Quick everybody hide. Hey nemie. Ended up staying home for vacation. Ds had stomach virus.

My belt is still too tight. So I think I failed the test.

I'm with you. ALthough it is getting better.

I passed. DD passed. Foster son who is now 20 passed. Butt kicking family photo to follow

Congratulations to all of you!

What is this welcome to the group business? I'm off the boards for a bit and suddenly I'm forgotten? I feel like Mr. Toad's Wild Ride.

My Apology Tour

At least you were kind while insulting me.

Watch out for that CJ guy, he's trouble.

Here ya’ go.
Now you can look up to see who it is…

If you really want to

I still haven't found a face there...

Maybe I should watch award shows.

If Barry is bringing the booze, I'm on Team Sparrow. Still room on the couch?
!

Welcome aboard Team Sparrow. The couch has now become a sectional. It looks like James will have a grat cheering section, but not such a great running with section.

make up it can really change how you view a person

I couldn't find any makeup. I guess I was looking in the wrong place.

And here I thought you wanted crontrol over the entire process - from manufacturing to servicing.

I am fine to control all the profits from it - just none of the work.

Morning guys. Girl Scout Cookie truck arrives this morning so I am going to help unload and sort out cases of cookies for the troops. Just can't seem to make progress on the grant proposal and maybe if I am nice the ladies will share some cookies with me.

Was at the mall today and they had a huge cart full of cookies and about 2 dozen girls under age 10 chasing down every shopper that passed. Good luck getting the ladies to share their cookies.

Morning all...

See we closed another one...
With a Star Wars reference...

Nice!



Stat Time (dissect at your leisure):

My total stats are wrong. Normally wouldn't care, but I am clearly ahead of CJ on total count. And yes CJ, no need for the "mine are quality posts" stuff.

 

[mm1971]

Ok guys we have gotten some quotes in. We are looking for at least two more dads to join in with us.Randall commented on possibly stopping in but not golfing. Pllease contact Don or Myself to let us know if your interested. Paul has also shown some interest

If the dates work I would love to join you guys for some golf. Add me to the list. If it is a weekend or non school days, I would probably bring the family.

 

[mm1971]

So I'm about 48 hours till we head to Disney for the Princess Half Marathon. DW wound up making a Rapunzel costume to run in and I cobbled together a Flynn Rider costume out of thrift store stuff. It's supposed to be 90 on Sunday though so I'll be running in shorts not khaki pants and boots.

Pictures or it didn't happen.

90???

And I thought the 1/2 was hot. Better start hydrating now.


(and I agree with Barry, we need pics!)

Yes, pics and good luck in the run. 90 is pretty hot. stay safe.

I don't see any makeup.

 

[declansdad]

Woo-Hoo! Congrats! Hopefully the engine room will be maintained before you go.

There's some guy out on one of the other boards that tells me DCL is the best cruise line in the world so I'm not worried.

How long is the cruise, and what are your ports?

 

[declansdad]

That's what happens when Canadians keep winning the post count. The takeover continues.

Yesss

 

[declansdad]

How long is the cruise, and what are your ports?

4 nights on the Dream with stops in Nassau and Castaway Cay followed by 4 night in Kissimee with the in-laws. We plan on taking them to MK for their first time to WDW.

 

[DisneyDaddy-O]

I was gonna post the pic but I was trying to be a 'good' boy.

Me too!

 

[declansdad]

Off to basketball, later all.

Checking in.
My DW and I are still planning to fly out to Yuma, AZ, in mid-March to visit friends and to attend the airshow in El Centro, CA. We might also spend a day in San Diego. Of course, this all depends on how my DW is feeling in another 3 weeks or so.
If anyone is wondering about the future of the Navy's Blue Angels.......so are we! If the budget cuts go through, it doesn't bode well for the Blues, the Thunderbirds or the Golden Knights. As of today, the Blues are still planning to fly a full airshow schedule this year. For updated info, you can check their official website or their FB page.
I'll check back when I can. Everyone take care!

Well, 'we' have decided to move our trip to WDW from Thanksgiving 2013 back to June/July 2014. Something about a thing called a 'budget' or some nonsense. I thought part of the experience of going to WDW was financing it, but she seems to think paying cash is better.

At least we are still planning a trip, albeit over a year from now.

 

[DisneyDaddy-O]

Canadians on top twice in a row. It must be a full moon.

or it's cold, snowy and have nothing better to do...

I know the feeling, we were hoping to sneak down in the spring, but our mortgage got in the way!
Now we have to wait until Oct.

Evening men

 

[BigTikiDaddy]

Evening guys...first day went well I think, didn;t get to do much more then the basics (cash and stock) boss was preoccupied with the auditor all day. Quite tired tonight though

First thing was first, marked my two weeks for Disney off on the vacation planner.

Morning Guys,

another storm day here for DW and DS. We are supposed to get snow and freezing rain throughout the day. So far it is more rain.

Come on cruise!!

Ugh, just cold and windy here today. Ready for winter to be over.

This morning is off to a fun start. Sitting in the pediatrician's office with DS. Only symptoms are a fever and the lack of desire to move.

Hope he's feeling better soon....

Lack of desire to move is a sympton? Uh-oh, what do I have now?

Morning guys. Girl Scout Cookie truck arrives this morning so I am going to help unload and sort out cases of cookies for the troops. Just can't seem to make progress on the grant proposal and maybe if I am nice the ladies will share some cookies with me.

Cookie season almost upon us! Wooo!

Hey Paul, Tim and Carl!

Welcome aboard Team Sparrow. The couch has now become a sectional. It looks like James will have a grat cheering section, but not such a great running with section.

As long as he doesn't expect us to clap, might spill the drinks, and requires effort.

October rocks though, both the MNSSHP and F&W Festival are then

By asking to try out, that was the try out. Welcome to team Sparrow. I just hope James decides to recruit someone else who will actually run with him.

Sweet. Team Sparrow. I'm all in then. I bleed...wait...what are the team colors? They should probably be something that represents despair AND debauchery.

And I will run...when chased.
