DIS Dads DDC XXXIV: The Original Home Of The DISDads!!!

Dads of the DIS talk about life, bacon, Disney, bacon, kids, bacon, cars, bacon, family life, and lots of other fun stuff! And beer. And bacon.
OK, seriously. I was gone for hours and no one is posting. Everyone must be Christmas shopping.:thumbsup2

I haven't started shopping yet. DW and I did take care of the big gifts for the dds but that's it.

The wife is never a good idea when you are planning to do something embarrassing, when they are laughing and egging you on it might be time to reconsider your decision. Lol

On the other hand ....

I don't know if that is a fool proof method.... she was the one taking the pictures and laughing her butt off remember? :rolleyes:

That's when you know the women are keepers - they acknowledge and encourage our bad behaviors. :thumbsup2
 
So, when we opening those bottles?

No, it's phrased when are Brett & I opening those bottles.

Obviously your mother never taught you to share with everyone.:sad2::sad2:

Not when alcohol is involved.
If you guys were here I'd definitely share them with you both.:grouphug:

My late cousin used to play Dungeons & Dragons (yes, D&D and he was 40 years old) with some of his friends and they each would bring a 6 pack of different local micro brews (apparently there were many where he lived in Colorado). Everyone got to try a bunch of different brews.

We tried doing a beer exchange at work, but we just couldn't get it to work with people's schedules. So I'm just going to buy some seasonal brews for me. :drinking1

It gets quiet in here this time of year...

Speaking of Christmas shopping- I should probably start that soon. :rolleyes:

I haven't started shopping yet. DW and I did take care of the big gifts for the dds but that's it.

DW takes care of 99% of the shopping for the DDs. We bought a new dishwasher as our big ticket Christmas gift. I bought her an ornament from the Emporium when we were there in November.

I need to give my wife some props for that. She's all over shopping. And moving that d*** elf around.
I did automate our Christmas card address list so that she didn't have to write out 100 addresses, so that's a nice contribution in my eyes. AND I'll be cooking the Christmas meal.
 
Signing off. DW is at dinner with the other moms doing a cookie exchange, youngest DD just finished watching home alone and now it's time for a highly competitive game of Disney headbandz.

Yea, but that's why I love her.



That last part is a clue!
Yea, but we like to have fun.

Exactly. :thumbsup2

We drink craft beers every monday night (when DW isn't working and I'm able to go)- it's my night out with the guys.
 
Evening...Christmas madness is in full form, tomorrow should be fun. I will admit, it wasn't a banner day for me, my mood was off. Declined to partake in the Pot luck luncheon, but took a quiet lunch away from the store which did wonders. It gets better after the first year, right?

On the plus, DW got her bonus, which will go towards booking our August trip to the Mouse next month !



I need to get some beer goblets before I crack open the bottles.

Sweet, I hope our buyers give it a look for next year, they need to lay off all the stouts and porters lately...oversaturated
 
Morning dads.
Just sitting here enjoying the smell of bacon and fresh coffee. Had to tell someone who would appreciate it.
 
Morning all. The DW and dds are going out shopping this AM. The money tree is looking bare. The good news is that I will be planted on the couch all day with soccer (Premier League) and UCLA @ UK in the afternoon. Is there also a NFL game tonite? I might grow into the couch by the end of day.

We never did that elf thing, and now we don't need to. I'm ready to not spend money on Gift anymore, but I am overruled. As for Christmas dinner, I'm stuck in divorce outlaw world which means lots of driving to other's houses.

That does smell good. I'm enjoying my coffee this AM.

Digging the new avatar :thumbsup2

I noticed that too. Way to go Randall.

Ahhhh.....the weekend :)

That sounds like a brilliant idea. :thumbsup2

Wives that take care of most of the shopping are awesome! :thumbsup2

Funny thing about our elf, DD decided that she didn't want the elf to move to different places every night because she is concerned that she may end up somewhere that someone could accidentally touch her.

I couldn't appreciate that more. Now I'm hungry.

I also like their Warlock beer. Very tasty. Although I have to admit that it's been a LONG time since I haven't tried a beer that I don't like. You noted store in your post. What type? In Pennsylvania we just legalized selling beer in grocery stores. We've always had to go to a beer distributor. And liquor stores are run by the state.

Your post reminded me throw a few slice in the skillet for myself. DW and kiddos are heading downtown with SIL and cousins to check out the decorates store fronts and other Christmas-y things. Wife let me sleep in on account of my cough\cold.

Morning, Norm. Sounds like an excellent day of sports viewing. That's my tomorrow. I'll head to Church at 8am and then i'm going to the Steelers-Chiefs game with 2 of my buddies. When the weather is cold like this we move our tailgating indoors and will pre-game at a place called the Beer Market. LOADS of different beers and a plethora on tap.

The stupid elf...we did it bc of peer pressure. I don't think that elf influences kids' behavor in the least. my kids are pretty darn good, the only issue that I have with them is when they fight with each other. Everyone else thinks that they are little angels.

DW is all over the shopping. I only get involved if something needs picked up at the store. We have forgotten countless times to move ours. I keep pondering ripping it a part and throwing it in our dog's crate. Doesn't she look like a vicious dog
 
Afternoon Gentlemen,

Happy Saturday and the start of Bowl Mania. Not everyone's cup of tea but my TV is going to get a workout Until january 4th. Made it home yesterday without incident and basically just dropped the bags in the Living room. Still haven't unpacked. Maybe laundry later today.

Have a good weekend.

You had to be reminded to make bacon? You must be sick. Better quarantine yourself infront of the TV until bowl season is over. You know just to be safe.

Good looking dog we used to have a collie mix, great dogs.

0-2. Premier League was just highlights. UK was so dominant it wasn't a game. I just hope the NFL game is decent tonite.

Hope yours is better than mine. It kinda depends on which Steelers team shows up - super passing, super running, or loses to Tampa?

Only except they get used to spending even more money. :scared1: :eek: :scared1: :eek: :scared1:
