Great update and great pics of the kids -- glad you enjoyed the Crush n' Gusher!

I will have to read DizneyDawn's recounting later! Thanks for the link!

Oh, my gosh, that link to DizneyDawn's story was hilarious! I'm glad the same thing didn't happen to you! Those are great pictures of the kids--Disney could use them for advertisement.

Your super water enema reminds me of the first time I tried to water ski........let's just say it was a two for the price of one sort of deal. I got an enema along with something the reminded me of a "summer's eve".

That sounds unpleasant.

Great update and great pics of the kids -- glad you enjoyed the Crush n' Gusher!

Thanks.

Great update We were supposed to go to TL this year, but I took it out of the plan becasue DS (5) is not into the whole water slide thing. Maybe next year

My kids are fish, they swim all the time, they were looking forward to the water parks the most before the trip.

I love that there is always something to put on the "next time" list!

Sounds like fun!

Sounds like fun!

Not even close to fun.

I took pictures though, so I can do a mini trip report for our excursion later tonight.

Oh, no! That wasn't the response we were all expecting! Can't wait to hear why it wasn't fun.

It wasn't fun because I HATE shopping. I can't stand just looking. I either want to go and buy or not go at all!

It's my problem with being impatient!

Here's my confession: I HATE shopping, too. If I have a list and know EXACTLY what I am going for, then I have no problem. Having to wander around and look at a bunch of choices -- I can't do it -- I get all panicky, overwhelmed, and sensory overloaded.

Maybe, that's why I like shopping at Disney -- the exact same things are in every store so I have time to process everything.

That is me exactly. Having my camera and thinking of it as a trip report helped a lot though. I even have food porn for you all.

Yeay! I love food porn!

My mom wants me to go to IKEA with her next weekend, and while there are quite a few things our home could use, I don't think I can do it. That place really sends me over the edge.

IKEA and lunch were the best parts of the day.

Today Aunt Pat and I went to look at furniture for the new house. This was not on my list of fun things I wanted to do today, so she promised me lunch.

First stop was IKEA

Aunt Pat tried out a couch-

I saw this and thought it would look cute in Daisy's room-

We really liked these bar stools-

The chair Daisy wants for her room-

Loved this table and the chairs-

This is the couch I liked-

If IKEA didn't provide arrows, would anyone find their way out?

Time for lunch. We went to The Cheesecake Factory.

Got our buzzy thingie-

While we were waiting I had to take this picture of this poor man left in the entry way holding his wife/girlfriend's purse.

We got seated and our waiter brought our bread.

I ordered a banana daquirie.

Aunt Pat got some sort of fettuccine thing.

Mine was a chicken salad sandwich, soup, and salad.

Dessert was strawberry shortcake for Aunt Pat.

Carmel macadamia nut cheesecake for me.

Aunt Pat made me go to four more furniture stores after lunch, but we didn't find much that we liked. We did find one other couch that we thought was nice.

Then we finally got to go home!
