thanks for making me feel like HoMeR SiMpSoN

Well I've got all the favors bought for my Mom's birthday party bags! I hope that everyone enjoys them, I've had so much fun making them. And i've got my Mom's birthday present bought, It's sooooooOOoooo Pretty, ya'll are going to LOVE it when you see it! I think it's really special.

Once I get the December trip paid off with my parents, I'll start saving for Food and Wine Festival Next year.
For sure I want to do the Napa Rose Cooking Class. { I need to get my DH to upload all those pics}
And I want to do the French Dinner and Japan depending on the dates as I will be coming from TeXaS.
So i need to save $1300. That's if they don't go up in prices. I'll save $1500 just to be safe.

YEAH! Dawn and Little Churro are coming to the Japan dinner! I am very excited for Miss Sally's b-day lunch. I am sure the goody bags are fabulous, your goody bags always are. I hear you about saving. I have $$ saved for Breezy & I to do some really cool excursions on our Disney cruise, but I need to save for the Grand in Dec with you guys. The hotel, tour, meals, a bottle or two of Magicale. It all adds up! Then the girls trip a few months later. It never ends!

 

[fairykin]

Oh these are BIG party favor bags! They have to be extra special for my Mom's birthday. She always did without when I was growing up so I could take ballet and go to dance camp. So I love getting to make things special for her.

Ooohh You are right Linda! I need to save for the GirL's Only triP.

 

[Stacerita]

Regarding the whole bottle of Rosa solo....been there, done that. I still have one bottle left and the cute little split that Donna gave me at the Grand. Saving it. Why does Taylor not like PJ's? Quite frankly it's the only decent pizza we have found in the IE. I miss Round Table.

Well, my father, Taylor's pop, works for Pepsi. The founder of Papa Johns used to work for Pizza hut, which Pepsico owns, and there was talk of stolen ideas and such. So pop told Tay, and ever since then she refuses to eat Papa Johns. Shes crazy like that.

Stacie.. Bob and I were laughing and saying You are like me.. I think Birthdays should be week long Pachanga's!
You party with your friends.. then You party with Your family...Then you party with friends and family who couldn't make the first two get togethers.. Then you party with your work friends.

A week long party is nothing. My brother does one better, he parties the entire month.

a month long party could be dangerouS!
FuN
But DangerouS

A week long party is nothing. My brother does one better, he parties the entire month.

When I turned 30, I partied for an entire month!! It was so much fun!!
One of the best parts was almost front row to Rob Thomas (I didn't care to much for Alanis Morrisette).
But it was a lot of fun!!

How are you girls doing tonight?
I am so sleepy! I still have a crap load of papers to do for my class
tomorrow.

Yep it sure can be a little bit of both!!

Yes it can. And my liver can't take it.

How's Frankenstein coming along?

Heck, after a week in Vegas, I doubt I could party a month.

 

[fairykin]

DebbieLouWho... you get to go to some of the Best Concerts!
I personally want to go on record as endorsing the Month Long Birthday Celebrations

AlrightY SweetBabieS, i'm off to SLeePy town.
Cold medicine kicked in.

I was just talking to my Mom right now about how much of a pain I was in high school and now that I'm older how I've grown to appreciate her and all she has done for me. It took me about 19 years to figure it out, but better late than never. I love my Momma.

I just found out what a Pachanga was like, last week. And yeah, I'm 1/4 Mexican.

 

[fairykin]

Ahh..You're a good daughter Courtney! I can't wait to give you a big hug whenever the girls trip is
Really really gone to sleeP.

I'm ready to hug ALL you girls!! It's going to take half the day for all the hugs to go around!!

Dawn is a sleepy monkey.

 

[Boo Bear]

I'm so excited to celebrate with Miss Sally too! I can't wait to meet everyone!

Vicki, I'll be praying for your mom!

Laurie, the twins are just so adorable! Love the hair.... and speaking of hair...

I got a new hairdo today! I got my bangs thickened (meaning more of them) and blonde streaks. I'm showing a pic so nobody get too frightened, I've been fighting pneumonia too and feel like poo. This is my "about to go to bed" look. For some reason people think I'm a mean person when I look like this.

The hair is cuter than this, but I had been in bed for hours finishing up the Lost season 5 episodes so it's smooshed down. I'll get a better pic soon but I was too excited to just go to bed without sharing.

The pleurisy seems to be getting better and my coughing is pretty much gone (thanks to wonder syrup)... fever is lower but still there, but my energy level is higher than it was yesterday. Magic antibiotics are my friend. I feel like I've been incapacitated for ages but it probably was just a few days.

Night Divas!

Ahhh, that makes sense about the Pepsico thing. Gotta stay true to pops. Gotta love it.

And Bridgette, you are so cute! Love the serious look with glasses. And the do is really nice. I like it, a lot.

Actually-when I got to the park at 5 p.m. they were allowing parking in Mickey and Friends, so all was good. Took the tram in and it was cool.

First course was the best--a mushroom risotto! YUMMY!

Second course was an ok salad.

Entree was osso buco with polenta and asparagus (yuck). But also some onions that had been roasted in balsamic--those were good!

Dessert was panna cotta (yuck) a cookie, some berries and something I can't remember.

But it was a lovely evening but COLD. We were at table 1 and there was no heater over us and it was windy.

Hmm, I have to say this doesn't excite me. I love great Italian food, but you've got a lot of yucks there. A good Osso bucco is a thing of beauty, did they serve it with long tiny forks? What was yucky about the asparagus?

Panna cotta is my least favorite Italian dessert and I would hate to be cold... for this kind of special meal, they couldn't bring in more heaters? Am I the only person who expected the meal to be more adventurous than this?

Happy Thursday to you all!

We are going for a week in July and staying in Curry Village in a tent cabin...just Mr. CA and me. I know I will be so ready for no tv, no phones, no internet, Bob and a good book is all I'll need!

We leave for Vancouver early in the morning from Burbank. I love flying out of the Burbank airport it is small and so easy..

I Burbank airport.

Your summer plans sound so relaxing...ah....

You guys have fun! We leave a week from tomorrow for two days in Vancouver and then the Alaska cruise. We are taking Theresa's advice and buying HOHO Trolley tix. They are good for two days and we get to see everything that way. And good for you going to the gym. The closest I ever get is when we do DL, I always call it a "gym day".

Hah, I just had my gym day today - my pedometer says over 18,000 steps but I think I didn't clear it from the last DL trip.

Are you going on Princess? We did the Alaskan cruise out of Vancouver a few years ago and loved it.

So, we have four comfirmed for next year. We only need two more for a full table of DisDivas!

I really feel that you must really like the genre of regional food and corresponding spirits to get your moneys worth. Other than some bizarre behavior of one event guest, the evening was really, really enjoyable.

What did I miss?

And i've got my Mom's birthday present bought, It's sooooooOOoooo Pretty, ya'll are going to LOVE it when you see it! I think it's really special.

It better be, because Miss Sally is very special.

A week long party is nothing. My brother does one better, he parties the entire month.

That's my joke too. It's my birthday month I say. (when it is)

I got a new hairdo today! I got my bangs thickened (meaning more of them) and blonde streaks. I'm showing a pic so nobody get too frightened, I've been fighting pneumonia too and feel like poo. This is my "about to go to bed" look. For some reason people think I'm a mean person when I look like this.

Night Divas!

I love the haircut!!! Very chic.

So I just got home a little bit ago from a day at DL with Stacielee and Michelle. Stacielee's younger daughter and her friends decided once mom had her own tribe, they would just go do their own thing.

We did Buzz several times. Stacie hit a new high!!!!!! Her score was so high, the counter on the car dash couldn't display it.

We had good guns.

I bettered my score each time. Last one for me was over 300,000. Of course this doesn't come close to the Mistress of Buzz, the Queen of Lightyear.

The weather was perfect and mild. We were going to eat at Carnation but it was closed. Then we walked to the BBQ but even though there were plenty of tables, the wait was 30 minutes! So we ate dinner at a place that Stacie and I had never eaten in before; Michelle had. It's the outdoor place in NO square by the train station, near Haunted M., where usually a little ragtime band plays. Fun to try new places in DL. Stacie took a photo of her cake that she'll upload when she returns.

The funny moment of the day was when I was going to buy some small figures. These are in bags so you don't know what three figures you're going to get. I pointed out the ones I was hoping for. Stacie starts feeling the bags. She says, this one feels like the Haunted car you want. Then Michelle feels and says, "This one feels like the Daisy witch you want."

I buy them, go outside and sure enough, got the Haunted car and Daisy! Amazing what you can do with a little help from your friends.

Dl also has a special now -- if you spend over $50, you can buy a bag for $20. We were pooh poohing that until we saw how good it was. It has wheels and it has a telescoping handle. It's black and says Disneyland on the side. The size and shape is like a gym bag. I got one but then found it didn't fit in the small locker I had, so I carried it all day...

We did Star Tours and got to sit in the back row - definitely the best spot.

Saw lots of strange outfits; Beth would have enjoyed the people watching.

We left as the park was closing (sometime after 9) to get ready for grad night. It was just as well, as we were all dog-tired but happy.

I can't wait to help celebrate your mom's birthday! Looking forward to seeing your pics from the Napa Rose Cooking Class!

Everyone have a great weekend! See you soon Sarah!

 

[fairykin]

Ya'll are all so sweet! We are going to have a HaPpPy time in October!
And we will take lots of fun pics for those who are not getting to go, so they can share in the happiness.

Bridgette... how Cute!!! Doesn't a new hairstyle or color put a bounce in your step?! It does for me.

Now... of course if I had pretty BeLLe hair like WendyLouWho... i wouldn't touch it. I saw it with my own two eyes... wendy just FaFiNkA blow dried her hair and it was all silky perfect!
I came home and told my DH, "Guess what, Wendy has Belle Hair, she just blow dries it and it's Perfect NaturaLLy!"

Well it's the weekend!! What is everyone doing this weekend?

 

[jordansmomma]
