. I'm in the kind of mood that I wouldn't even care if they called school altogether 
. 
. On Channel 5 news this morning they said the blizzard warnings/watches were cancelled 
. So hopefully that means your parents won't have any trouble coming in 
. I'm glad they can be here for Jojo's birthday.....I'm sure she'll really enjoy that 
.

I know....I know.....it came out just RIGHT actually...... It will be fine. Short and hopefully SWEET. And it will make Jojo happy. They are awesome grandparents.
Morning Gals
Just popping in for a minute while DSs are getting ready for school.....2 hour delay today
Chan......I'm sorry about your step dad's mom
Shel.....Are the Segway tours really that fun???? How long do they last??
Kel.....I'm with you on DHs being home during the day......it throws my entire day off schedule when mine is home
I hope everyone has a great Tuesday
Deb
They made it seem like it was a DONE DEAL and IMMINENT!! 
Stupid weather peeps....I am sooo sooo relieved...I cannot even tell you. They had to get here and i heard more snow on Wednesday...now I won't believe anything til I see it....UNLESS they start in on Feb...then I will panic.
hopefully not nervous. I wish we were all going at the same time and could crash.... We would you know.
Hopefully they are wrong about tomorrow's too! 
- single digits!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ) and that seems to be helping. Feel better soon Chan!! 
. I did the $12 cake at Garden Grille in 2006 for my bday and it was good. I guess the EPCOT restaurants use a bakery, not the premade Sara Lee's like everywhere else seems to do (according to the cake thread, anyway). Mine wasn't cold, frozen etc. But those can't be personalized. They are white or chocolate with a Happy Birthday or Happy Anniversary Mickey wafer on it. I will see if I have pics uploaded.
I do have a sore throat!! I feel much better over all though...so it's not strep or anything...probably just hanging wtih too many germy kids. 
...kids like the wackiest places. I was telling SHel..and she doesn't have a Culvers so she doesn't understand. That place does nasty stuff to my system so I usually stay far away.
Cute pic Kristin! That's a Disney DEAL!
I am getting my hair colored today! NO MATTER WHAT....even if I had to drive thru a blizzard to get there I was going to get there....I am glad there's no blizzard though. I was supposed to do it right before Xmas but had something else going on and canceled...so i am over due!
OMG...Jojo's REAL bday is Thursday...so she wants to either go to Around the Clock for dinner (OK I like it for bfast only) or Culvers!
Chan
Just get ice cream and skip the food! I have never been to Around the Clock other than breakfast either. Kids! ) And he said he wants to get Disney Invitation balloons and go to WDW like the commercial!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
If only he knew!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Culvers?!?!
CUTE STORY ALERT: I asked DS what he wanted to do for his birthday this year (very innocently, of course
He's so cute! ...she said it's fine..it's a treat to be here for Jojo's bday. So...whatever the little princess wants. Jojo loves their corn dogs and their cheese curds...omg..such nasty food. Jo is a corn dog fanatic..i had to wait in line at some corn dog place in DCA for 45 min for one for her. And I didn't buy anything for myself! What a mom. 
HI gang!
I have been bogged down by all around sickness! DD3 has a horrible ear infection and ruptured ear drum, I have a abseced tooth that cant be saved, and DH has had soem medical issues that we are dealing with. It has been a crazy weekend!
Off to catch up!
Kristin..... What about putting it out after he is asleep? He would wake up to the surprise instead of coming "home" to it. Could you do that with out waking him up? That is what we did on our trip..... the kids had these mini back packs and i filled them with treats every night and they got to open them on the monorail/bus every morning on our way to the parks. We told them they were from Mickey. Santa and the Easter Bunny come when you are sleeping why cant Mickey?
Are they going to have to pull it?
I made a huge pot of soup this morning now I have time to veg out on the sofa and chat 
He liked the Wilderness one because it wasn't as crowded as the Epcot one. He was one of two in the tour. The Epcot one was actually fun for us because we dropped him off at Guest Services at 8:30 am then waited for rope drop. I had no idea characters came out. It was more of a meet and greet at the rope, no show like MK. Then I RAN with the kids to get Soaring FPs. It was so much fun spending the early morning in Epcot, something we've never done before with the kids. Then at 11am, we met DH at Innovations East or West where his tour ended. I think the guys would really enjoy it. 
We always head towards the opposite end of the park. When you do go, make sure to look up at the entrance and you'll see stormtroopers. DH is always amazed how they last in those costumes in the June heat! I had gotten the Mickey Red re-usable bags from the Disney Store. They're really large. We even used them for Halloween! Feel better.
) but the actual costumed characters dressed as Vadar, Storm Tropers, Jedi Mickey etc.
Kristin: That would work. Last June we had an 8:45 ADR for H&V Bkfst, then saw Little Mermaid then Playhouse Disney then left by 11:30. It was just too crowded and too hot.
The weather plays a huge factor in June. We had really hot days and found the parks just unbareable after 11am.
My kids have NEVER seen the parades. They've seen a little of Spectro here and there, but never the 3pm parade. It's always too hot or too crowded.
I'm hoping this trip to catch the Block Party Bash parade. We'll see....
I think if you gather a lot of info about the SW stuff, you'll be fine. It just seems like a huge crowd near the Star Tours attractions.
We really just do the parks a few hours a day. More time spent at the resort pool and now this trip we're going to the waterparks. We have no detailed plans for the parks. We just wing it. The only time we plan it out is MK mornings. Once every trip we do MK at rope drop and head to Fantasyland. That's about it.
