Great pictures! Your grandchildren are adorable, and that bear... *smiles* it is unbelievable!
Update on AKL IPO and YBC IPO, Sue is out on a medical leave of absence but with AKL still (I hope she gets better soon!) and Alana is now with the YBC. Andrea is still with AKL's IPO and wrote off the last two emails to me. Don is still there as I posted yesterday to him. Those three wonderful ladies took care of the IPO planning/room arrangements during my first two trips and I can't say enough good things about them!
twinmomplus2new>> I hope you feel better, soon! It is so hard being sick and being a mom to little ones! I remember when my youngest was an infant with my oldest being second grade and all I could think about was just being "home" and having my mom take care of me!
lovesdumbo>> I understand now! I ran into the same thing and couldn't get them to budge. They wanted 50 dollars per ticket to change them so that would have put me at a ten dollar loss when we were all done! Good luck with your airline!
On IPO>> I have always made the contact first, as I just can't wait to "spread the news" so to speak! Poly GVC did sent out the forms in the mail, but something kept me from filling them out. I now know it was baby ankole calling me silently in my sleep!

I have never waited over a day for a response from AKL's IPO and usually it is within hours, last night it was minutes! I think we were playing email tag! Please email them and let them know your heart's desire. They'll go out of their way to try to make it happen! They can't move trees, but they can work some pretty great Disney magic! (I wonder if the landscape crew could help with CRT ressies as they DO move trees?) Oh that was a bad joke!
DD coming over soon to go swimming after work. Maybe she wants her room back? Should I mention how nice it is to know where my makeup is at all times? Naw, I'll just enjoy having her around!
