I know what you mean. We haven't been to WDW since October 2006. I go into the nearest Disney store for a fix every once in a while. I need to get to WDW ASAP!!!
Your new siggy is too cute!!
I loved Up!! We have a theater near us that is like that, but DH won't go to it b/c he says the food won't be any good. My response is always, "well the food isn't that great at McDonald's but we go there to make the kids happy." Plus he says that it is too dark and he won't be able to see his food. I think the main problem is that his mom told him they were all booths, and since he is Pooh sized (wears about a 5 to 6 XL t-shirt) he won't sit in a booth.
You should post pics of the cake if you have any. I've alway wanted to try and decorate a cake like that. I told my DH that for either an anniversary, birthday or Mother's Day (like that will ever happen. He never does anything for me for Mother's Day b/c "I am not his Mother") I want a cake from Frosted Art in Dallas. It is owned by Bronwen Weber, and I would love to have one of her cakes.
At ours it's just like going to a movie except they have tables in front of you. The same kind of seating as the rest of the theatre. They just converted half the theatre around a year ago. They also have some theatres that they call Cinema Suites with Recliners and the table next to you, but you have to be 21 to go, so we couldn't take my baby sister. I really wanted to take DH while we were in town last week, but they weren't showing any movies we wanted to see.
It was a bit dark to eat, but it was fun anyways.
The Fork and Screen was fun though, because since we took her during the week it was only $10, basically $5 for the tickets, then we got $5 food vouchers, so it really wasn't that expensive. Near my parents the AMC has $5 tickets during the week and before noon on weekends. The Cinema Suites is $15, but you get a $10 food voucher.
Congrats on being homeless!!! (I think that's the first time I've ever said that.
) I like the way you think, booking a Disney trip to celebrate. I would love to be able to book ours, but DH won't let me until the 2010 packages come out.
I have to go clothes shopping tomorrow. My DH's graduation is this Friday, and I have nothing to wear. I'm happy in just jeans, a t-shirt, and my low top green Converse. I might be able to find something I used to wear when I worked full time for Citi, but I have no clue where all those clothes are. I hate, hate, hate graduations. The only one that I ever looked forward to was my little sister's when she graduated from Tulane Law School. The August of the year she started her 3rd year of law school was the year Katrina hit NOLA. Then in May when they had graduation, both ex Presidents Bill Clinton and George H.W. Bush were the speakers. The presidents and graduates were led in by a jazz band. At the end they had a suprise guest. It was Ellen DeGeneres and she showed up wearing a white bath robe. It was so funny. Ellen and the jazz band led the graduates out second line style. It was so cool and I have some really good pictures from it. The only thing I was suprised about was the lack of security. I had expected a lot more considering two former presidents were there. Anyway, so in a way I am looking forward to Friday, but then really dreading it as well. Well I'm off to get some dishes done. I hope everyone has a great night.
I hate graduations too. I've only been to the two of my own. I only walked this year because I wanted pictures of Logan and I in our cap and gowns. My whole family forgot cameras though, so Logan's parents are the only ones that got pictures and I haven't seen them yet.
Our former/new football coach (he retired, but they rehired him this year because the football program was doing so bad *rolls eyes*) spoke. He didn't say anything spectacular, just stuff about achieving your goals.
OK, I need some serious help here, DH just dropped a bomb on me and I have no idea what to do. This next year will be our 15th year wedding anniversary, which was the real reason for our trip next year. However our wedding anniversary is July 1, and I am not insane enough to take my boys to FL during that time. DH just said, "Hey how about instead of going to WDW, we go to England or Italy without the kids next summer and then take them to San Antonio for Spring Break?" The question is, what would you do? Take the family to WDW or take the kids to San Antonio for a weekend, and then go to Europe for a week in the summer with just you and the hubby?
Could you go during a different time of year, and celebrate your anniversary then?
If not, I would totally choose Europe for an anniversary, especially if you've never been. Unless it would be too difficult to leave your kids.
I agree that this is really a decision only you can make, but Europe would be fun.
