It is pouring buckets here! I wish it was snow. Our Chicago gals are getting hammered with snow. I hope someone posts some snow pictures. Off to shop.
) but the snow will only be double there what we get here (if we get any that is). We'll see.... Right now it's dark and cold and I don't want to get off the sofa! 
A cookie basket sounds yummy. Where did you order from? Cheryl & Co Cookies I heard are really good. I get their catalog.
. I just saw my neighbor driving down the street and she was going about 2 miles an hour 
. . I have yet to decide where I want to eat on which day 
.......I'm slacking for this trip and don't know why . All I know is it's going to be a DISASTER calling for those 
. The people with trips in April/May have been waiting for over a month now.......so they'll have to fight with those of us going in June as everybody and his brother will be calling at the same time . I guess I better get my butt moving and make my list so I can be prepared when the day does come to call . Have fun wrapping presents 
......Shawn is going to love them . 
on the phone lines! Another reason why now is not a good time to do the DxDDP - way too many ADRs to make. I have my restaurant list, but really want to know the EMH. I don't think I'll have time to plan my ADRs around the hours since the hours will probably be released the day I'm able to make the ADRS. I'd rather be on the phone at 7am then waste 2 hours re-arranging my meals and days around EMHs. I guess we'll just wing it... DS1 will not go down for his nap (he's been up since 6:30 am!) He's just discovered presents under our tree and started unwrapping them!!! DS4's school creates a Holiday Store in the gym and the kids get to purchase gifts for their family. It's cute. So last night he wrapped his gifts and put them under the tree. Well, DS1 keeps unwrapping them. We have to leave them under the tree since those are from DS4. We leave the "few" presents from each other under the tree then Santa brings the rest. I keep re-wrapping the ones DS1 unwraps!! How many more days of this???? I said NO SCHOOL! And passed out. ugh....so I slept in today. Lucy and Z are still sleeping.
Now that's early!! Rest and try to nap. Maybe stop using that Starbucks coffee and go decaf until after Christmas I hope the kids "behave" and don't bother you too much today since you had such a rough night. Stay warm and enjoy the lazy day. 
DS4 and DH love ribs so I thought this might be a good alternative to O'hanas. What do you think??
The roads are bad. They just interruped The View with a weather update. I bet your MIL is going to TRY to get you to cancel your trip. Drive safely, lots of black ice. We'll all be thinking of you and your family.
. I think we might try it for our December '09 trip or the following year . . ?? The antics is what made the restaurant atmosphere so cool . I am so disappointed to hear they stopped the nonsense as we were really looking forward to it in June 
. But as for your question about the food........we have never had a bad meal there yet.......and the ribs and pulled pork are awesome, IMO .. Hopefully you'll be able to squeeze in a nap today to try and catch up on all the sleep you missed last night 
. There's not much going on here now as far as weather . The rain stopped and I'm hearing the roads have turned to slush ..
He gave her h*ll because he could tell she has a sassy attitude. That and Kona were actually our best dining experiences in July. I'd def go back. We did the ribs and the chicken...the bbq stuff...corn on the cob...coleslaw....that family style platter thingy...it was pretty good. We all laughed a lot. Poor kid. Oh...I was already awake with stress at 3:45..so no biggie. But I thought that was kinda weird they'd call so early. Looks like the snow just stopped. I don't know how much we have but I can't open the sliders...it's piled up too high!!! My house is darkish because the skylights are covered in thick snow! The kids are bummed because today was their Xmas party day at school.
He is just beside himself. He's dying to go to a waterpark. He watches the Travel Channel special "Extreme Waterparks" all the time! Unfortunately, he doesn't understand that it's a list of all different waterparks and their best slides. He thinks all these slides will be at one waterpark! I'm not sure what antics they did away with. I've read on the restaurant board that it's drastically decressed and not nearly as fun as it used to be. I didn't get the whole story on what the complaint was. We've never experienced the "fun". Last June we ate there at 12 noon. Maybe it was too early for a "show". They didn't do anything crazy. DH got a large glass of soda that was it. Oh and they gave someone a large oversized fork. At least the skillet is good. That's what we're going there for.
Be careful driving... When my kids were little their school had a special shopping day for Christmas also...I still have some of the beautiful jewelry that they bought for me... 
But if my phone rang at 3:45am!!!OMG I would think someone died!! Cant they call at a reasonable hour
At that hour in our house you're lucky if you get a glass of water!! 
Vanessa and Marvel - Hope you both have wonderful trips!!
Marvel have a FANTABULOUS FAN ------tastic trip!!!

Morning
I am too tired to type anything logical so i just wanted to say:
Have a great trip Marvel! Be safe on your drive down!
I think once we get to south jersey and PA we'll have no problem.Marvel: Is your cell phone ringing off the hook right about now??
, it's just easier to say put in WDW. Once their older, we'll explore FL again.
I hope the little guy gets to feeling better soon. Maybe he will sleep all the way down to WDW! My kids never failed to be sick right before a trip....they would sleep the whole drive though...worked for me.
