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.
Booked a flight to Orlando for Father's Day Weekend (also the last week of Star War Weekends), Did this last year, I will be the 1st to tell you it sure beats having a BBQ where you end up grilling and doing a bunch of party preparing on a day that was meant to honor you:confused3

See how much that AP has saved you? :lmao: :lmao:
 
Unfortunately, the little bast*** has wormed his way into a permanent residency. If the kid moves off campus next year, she gets to bring him to NJ. Once she is out of school, the dog goes wherever she goes.
Well, you can always just FedEx him up to Jersey. He should make the trip if you overnight him... :rotfl2::rotfl2:




Saw something interesting on Diners, Drive ins and Dives last night. Bacon donuts. A vanilla glazed donut (glazed on both sides) with one side dipped in crunchy bacon bits. I understand the American Heart association is applying to the Geneva Convention folks to have it banned.
Now that is a brilliant idea! :idea:

Did they say how long the lines were to get one? :confused3
 

I know i'm late to the party, but I finally found Dexter on Netflix and finished season 1. What an amazing show.

That is a great idea. We are still supposed to arrive that week, but nothing still booked. I'm looking forward to when this vacation is over, so that we can start with APs.

Let the games begin. Enjoy your (almost) last weekend of football for a while.
 
Afternoon all. Hope all you convention goers had a good time it was fun following the progress.

As I had posted on FB, My FIL has been diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer and given 4-6 months left. DW is naturally torn up over this. We are in town working on the slow process of getting things in order. He is resigned to his fate for the most part. For my part I'm just trying to be DWs rock.

Another downer is that this throws all plans into disarray with a real good chance the August trip won't happen now as our funds are needed to deal with anything which shamefully has me feeling pretty low. Waiting another year seems intolerable, which makes me feel crappy since I know others wait longer. Going to keep thinking up a plan but not sure yet what to do.

Oh yeah caught whatever stomach bug DW had last weekend. Fun fun fun lol
 
Double Carp! How could GB lose that game? Barry, I am slapping you upside the head next time I see you. Just because.

Now all I need is for the Pats to win. May need to have something to do Super Bowl weekend.
 
Thinking of changing the channel. At 8:00 TCM is showing "To Kill a Mockingbird." It is better than "They Shoot Horses Don't They?" that CBS has on.

Continued prayers here as well.

What a comeback by the Seahawks, which means .....

Feel free. I probably wouldn't notice with this gut punch I'm dealing with right now.
 
Morning guys,

Waiting for the Duck to check in. Hope he has recovered from yesterday's debacle.

I'll be in WDW for the game, if you want to come watch it with me? :confused3

Tempting. Now if you could get Jim to come down...
 
Howdy fellow dads, feels weird that I haven't posted in a few days. The cell service at Grand Californian stinks!!

Had a great trip and great races! Had fun meeting up with Sean McTupper and Richard Grady, we had an awesome lunch at Ariels Grotto (yes we did have kids with us, but no Jasmine so we didn't do a DisDad Princess pic). Sean and my DDs had a great meet up as well, they really enjoyed riding California Screamin together!

At LAX now on the way home :( and for the Disdad Nsync fans, I was in the same corral as Joey Fatone.

I'm here. I'm dehydrated from all of the wailing and crying :sad1:

Congrats to the Pats fans. I really, really, really, really hate your team.
 
Morning Guys,

Hope things are well with everyone. Brent, sending out thought and prayers for you and your family.

We had another middle school basketball tournament this past weekend and once again went 2 and 2 to win the Bronze medal. My top 6 guys are capable of playing with the rest of the teams but we are pretty thin after that. Middle schools here use an even play system so he can create some challenging matchups. DS continues to play well and they all seem to be having some fun so that is good.

We do have one boy who has never played competitive basketball before and he is obviously way behind everyone else. He scored his first basket, I think maybe ever, on Saturday and the boys and parents went crazy. WE ended up giving him our player of the game award and there were a few tears from him and his dad. It didn't take an hour for him to share it on Facebook. It makes me smile just typing this post.

Have a good one everyone.
 
Hope everyone had a good weekend. Happy Monday and MLK Day. At work, but REALLY tired after getting home around 1:30AM this morning. Patriots game was a lot of fun. Pretty much went as expected. The best part is my seats are covered so was warm and dry throughout. Went with DS to the game, I really enjoy all the great games we have been able to see over the years. He'll be 15 in March, has been spoiled with championships by all teams and has really grown into a great kid. I know....must take after his mother.

DD's team won by 12 over the weekend. She hurt her finger and it is swollen and black and blue from the tip all the way to her hand. She sat the whole second half was it was really sore. DS's team crushed both teams they played this weekend and his team is now 8-0 on the season. My 7th grade team was down 12 in the first half. We only allowed 8 points in the second half to pull out a 3 point victory. A great weekend of sports in our house!

Saw something interesting on Diners, Drive ins and Dives last night. Bacon donuts. A vanilla glazed donut (glazed on both sides) with one side dipped in crunchy bacon bits. I understand the American Heart association is applying to the Geneva Convention folks to have it banned.

They have those at Honeydew Donuts around here! Shared one with DD a few weeks back. It was REALLY good!

:thumbsup2:thumbsup2 Beats any BBQ I have had. Spending Fathers Day in WDW would be awesome. Have fun.

Hey Randall. Looks like the Ravens are losing their OC. New offense coming to the birds.

There is a rumor that he does not like Manning all too well. Will be interesting to see if Manning comes back to Denver now.

Let the games begin. Enjoy your (almost) last weekend of football for a while.

It was a fun weekend. The last 5 minutes of the Seahawks game made up for the ugly 55 minutes leading up to it. I actually feel a little sorry for GB, they deserved to win.

1) Prayers being sent for FIL and your family. Not sure of the specific situation, but DW cousin was given 3 months due to cancer 10 years ago. Aggressive treatment and he is cancer free now. Stay positive and fell fee to lean on us if you need support.

2) Bummer about the trip. I hope it all works out and you get to go.

3) Sorry your not feeling well. Get better and stay positive.

Your wish has been granted. Patriots win!:rotfl2::rotfl2::lmao::lmao:

Ummm, yeah.......Not so much.

At least we can talk about deflating the footballs for the next two weeks.:sad2::sad2:

I'll be in WDW for the game, if you want to come watch it with me? :confused3

If you pay for me, I'll come.:thumbsup2
