here our a few pics from our HOLLOW-ween night. it was sort of depressing.. Granted we have half the homes empty due to forclosing but then others didnt have their porch lights on so it was 1 house lite then four non trick or treating houses. By the end of the night (bout an hour) J was exhausted.

P decieded he was too big to go trick or treating (due to they didnt have the costume he wanted... I tried to be creative and give him ideas to make and help with but ... everything he said no to. so he sat at home with E and passed out candy.

J's 1st stop... our house LOL as a star wars space troopr

me the devil made me do it

E coming to "rescue" J and carry him home, I ran home to go potty LOL (btw it wasnt cold at all... in the low 80's not sure why he had a hoodie on LOL)

Arin.......Great news

I guess this is the real reason why you never showed up @ Carlos & Charlie's

Love this picture!!! I guess you were able to get your pictures uploaded on to your machine!! Can I get some for my scrapbooking weekend coming up in 2 weeks????

Forgot to note - we had absolutely NO (nada, zilch, etc) Halloweener's last night. We moved into a new place Nov 1st last year and it's part of four townhomes that sit back behind another large house. Since we're not right on the street, I thought maybe we wouldn't get very many children but since we are the end townhouse and I had my light on - I was hoping a few would venture back. At the very least, I thought the children in the last two townhouses would stop over but my son said they left in the car before I got home from work! I thought I heard them come back later (while my light was still on) but maybe they were too tired to stop.

So now I have a bunch of candy!!! And no resolve

Hopefully I can stay pretty much away from it until Monday when I can take it into the vultures at work!!! When I brought my candy home from the MNSSHP after the cruise, my youngest son picked out what he liked and I took more than 1/2 bag to work. It was gone before lunch!!!

I have the about half of the pictures on 2 CDs. Well, the second memory card I should say. I'll bring that down with me tonight. I'll try to have mom get the second CD done next week.

Arin - CONGRATS!!!!!

Thinking PINK!!!!!!!!! (okay, I know it's really magenta but pink just doesn't show up very well).

Thanks!

Look who brought home a souvie!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!

Guess those REAS packages really work, huh?

Actually, I think I may have brought on a stowaway

Are you going to name it

Caymana
Cozumela
Caya
or dayatsea

NICE!

WOOHOO CONGRATS!!!!!!
**note to self forget getting the REA's package next time**

OHHHHHHH I was hoping to announce that sort of news but it didn't happen for us (I guess Tink got lost on the way to our cabin and stopped in at yours ) CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm sure you will have your own news soon enough

OMG Arin
Thats wonderful news...better yu than me

THINKING PINK!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, I am so not one of those rare girls who enjoys being pregnant

Congrats!!!

You brought home some Magic of your own, awwww!

Sounds like you had a little too much adult time on VACATION. Congrad and I will send positive thoughts that she is female. lois

Thanks for all the good vibes

Congrats Arin

Guess that means no more cabin for 4

That was one of my first thoughts, "well, this will make family vacations a little harder and more expensive" AND "does this mean I have to get a mini van?"

​

very cute, thanks.

Congrats Arin! Sending pixie dust your way for a girl.........since we have kids the same age and gender, I can understand why you are hoping for a GIRL!!


Crissi

I'm glad there is someone who understands. I love my son just as much as I love my daughter, but he is a challenge to say the least. I need some pink, princesses and butterflies in my life again

Oh, that's awesome news!!!!!!! Congratulations, Arin - and family.



Our 3rd one was a .... surprise, too. We refer to her as "proof God has a sense of humor." LOL!! We never expected another one. I was almost 39 when I had her .... and she's a girl! Heck, I had no idea (and still have no idea!!!!) what to do with a girl!!! LOL!!!!

I was scared that I wouldn't know what to do with a boy......but it all works out.

How exciting! Congrats to you and your family!!!! Do you know your due date yet?

Arin.......Great news

I guess this is the real reason why you never showed up @ Carlos & Charlie's

Nope, it was really the sunburn. We still regret not making it there that night

 

[anc22]

Due date is June sometime, I have an Ultrasound on Nov. 14th and will find out for sure. Either way, I will probably have the baby early. I tend to have GIANT babies (Madison was 10 lbs and Chase was THREE WEEKS EARLY and still 9 lbs!)

I feel for you. Mine were 9-3 and 9-4! I'd look at them in the nursery and they were the only babies that looked like they were a month old already!!!

Kids can be such an issue with costumes! Jonah was an issue because he coudn't find *exactly* what he wanted.


I think the horns are fitting ....


By the end of our evening, we were wearing hoodies. It was in the low 40s last night.

I have the about half of the pictures on 2 CDs. Well, the second memory card I should say. I'll bring that down with me tonight. I'll try to have mom get the second CD done next week.

My pictures took up 1 1/2 *dvds*! Yikes.

I was scared that I wouldn't know what to do with a boy......but it all works out.

Ah, but I had 2 boys first - and my girl was 9 1/2 years younger than my (then) youngest! WOW. That was a shock.

Oh my - for both of you!!!!! My biggest was 6 lbs 15 oz. My 3rd one was only 6 lbs. I canNOT imagine having one that big!!

Hello all - bumping us up to page 1........anyway........anyone else have Halloween pictures to share?

Sorry I haven't been posting as much this week but I will probably be off and on for the next 2 weeks or so. We have a lot going on, finals coming up for school (we are both doing our MBAs), work is kind of crazy and to top it off we are moving. Things fell into place super fast and we are moving east to a new state - the good news though...we will only be about 40 minutes from Mickey's house - probably my second favorite place in the world apart from the cruise ship. Top that all off with trying to get ready for a vacation with my sister and

Sure do miss those nice calm, quiet days on the ship right about now!

Alright back to the books

 

[alleluia5]

Hey all - just saw this on another of my threads:

We just disembarked from the Double Dip Halloween cruise (it was fun, but the weather/seas were horrible for the first four days), and I have some news. This is straight from the Shutters staff who I talked to on Friday PM - Photopass will be available within two weeks. It will be for the onboard photos only, beach photos will have to wait - they are trying out some facial recognition software in the future for this.
Hopefully someone can give a fuller report on this in the next two weeks or so.

Happy Halloween to everyone!!

Anyone still have in their "braids"? Natalie still has a few, Gabby is down to 1.

I took mine out two weeks after we got home; they still looked great but it was time. I was thrilled they lasted as long as they did!

Hi everyone, haven't checked in for awhile. I hope everyone is doing well. We just found out that we are expecting baby #3! This was sooooo not in our plans, but we are still happy. Send pixi dust my way hoping for a GIRL

Congratulations! What a blessing. Here is some pink pixie dust for your little daughter (YES, DAUGHTER)

Yes, technically I brought a stowaway onboard too last year, just didn't know it!

And to answer your questions above....yes, and yes!

And you look AMAZING!

I had read somwehere too thaT THE CRUISE right AFTER OURS had a trial system of this going on. Humph. Maybe if they had started it for us they wouldn;t have lost all of our pics of Sarah. But I digress, I am so glad to see them finally getting onboard with this idea (pun intended!)

OK -who else has Halloween pictures to share???

Crissi

I Do! I Do!!!
Here is our little puppy:

And all three...Brendan is Some weird version of the Grim Reaper, and Savannah....well I don't have to tell anyone here who she is. Actaully the big kids...those are their costumes from last year too. They didn't really want new ones.

Love seeing all the pics, everyone! The Halloween ones are so cute and Amy the buttlerfly and flower pics are gorgeous!!
I'll throw in some OT pics too since I have them right here...yesterday was Savannah's second competition...The girls got third place (even with a failed dead man stunt)...

She is fourth and third from the left in both of these, respectively:

In the center:

This has to be my favorite pic....love it!
Savannah is in the bottom left just above the girl doing a somersault (she is doing a kartwheel)

 

[Buckeye Gal]

I'm absolutely loving the pics of everyone's Halloween photos! The kids look awesome! (You too, Drea! ) Keep them coming!

Jen, please pass along my congratulations to Savannah! That's a great accomplishment!

Amy, your butterfly photos need to find a contest to get into! Seriously!

 

[anc22]

Yes, technically I brought a stowaway onboard too last year, just didn't know it!

Um, yeah, if I would have known, there would have been no DOTD's involved

And to answer your questions above....yes, and yes!

I have never pictured myself as a minivan person, but the new VW Routon looks pretty great

And you look AMAZING!

Why, thank you
