Sorry I've been MIA- It has been a crazy week here. CT was hit very hard by a autumn nor'easter. The wet snow accumulated on trees that hadn't dropped their leaves yet. As you can imagine, the weight, along with winds that were sometimes hitting 50MPH, pulled down numerous trees which in turn, pulled down power lines and poles.
I was working on Saturday afternoon when it started and I had to leave my truck a few streets away and had to walk home under trees that were cracking and falling down all over the place. It was scary. We lost power on Sunday evening and went over a friends house for the night. We were one of the lucky ones and our power was restored on Monday night. Our town, as well as many others canceled Halloween due to the lack of power and the possibility of power lines hidden under the 15-18'' of snow we received. The town did reschedule trick-or-treating for Saturday night.
We had Melody's brother & wife stay over on Monday night, my sister and niece were over most of the day on Tuesday, and my boss, his wife, and daughter were over this evening for dinner. My sister,my brother, my boss, and many others aren't expected to get power back until Sunday. It is a very bad situation... I have a few pictures.....
Our yard Sunday morning 15-18'' of snow-
A few streets near our house....
Juliana hasn't had school since Friday, but she gets to go back tomorrow. She is really excited! She went to the doctor today to get her flu shot and the doctor still sees fluid in her ears so she is on a stronger antibiotic. If this doesn't work then she will have to go to a specialist. After her doctors appointment, Melody brought her to get her ears pierced. Juliana didn't cry getting her shot or her ears done. She is really brave.
I will be back tomorrow to respond to you all... and thank you for the Halloween wishes!

Wow you all got hit pretty bad! My friend is a school teacher in Kensington (Is that a town) CT, and he has been out of school all week! He has new born twins (well they were born in August). I told him if he wanted to make the drive to MA he and the family could come stay with me. So glad you got your power back so fast. We had a dusting here, but lots of tree branches down on my street. One JUST missed a power line! I did get locked out of my house on halloween though. I was handing out candy and when I went to go back in I couldn't get the door opened! I was convinced there was a serial killer in there for a while. I know i have seen that movie before!
What a big girl you guys have! What a great reward for a flu shot too! I hope her ear gets better soon. Ear infections are the worst. I was one week away from ear tubes at 23!

Tim - Your family Halloween photos are wonderful!
but this photo had me cracking up
Was the phrase "Who's your daddy" in there somewhere? 
BOO to scaring the poor boy on BTMRR...but I know how easy it is to mis judge what a kid's reaction will be to a ride. sometimes you just have to deal with the aftermath.
YAY
for Cap'n Anna on the Jungle Cruise
...good think you didn't run into those scary pirates on the ship......she didn't drive you under water falls, did she? (can't watch the video at work. boo)
WOW
did you get slammed!!! We had trees fall & damage sections of fencing in the back but did not get as much snow as you -- about 9" here in NE PA
Glad your family got power back soon. this storm had some wicked hits -- people in my area are still out of power too. crazy! Hope its not a sign of the winter to come!
Well, I was going to be nice since he's a new dad and all, but since he is torturing us and NOT updating with Ana's photo on the castle, here goes:
but this photo had me cracking up
Was the phrase "Who's your daddy" in there somewhere? ....So we thought BTMRR would be the perfect step up.
Now Melody and her cousin couldn't ride BTMRR because they both were pregnant so I had the honor of bringing the kids on the ride. The wait wasn't too long and the kids were really excited. It was our turn to get on the ride and I sat in between Juliana and her little cousin. The ride started and Ana's cousin started getting nervous... he got very quiet. Once we went down the first drop, that was it. He started crying. I was trying to tell him it was ok but he didn't like it at all. Now Melody and her cousin were standing in an area where they could see us on the ride and they both saw him crying. I felt so bad for him. Before we knew it the ride ended and he ran to his mom. I don't think he will be riding BTMRR any time soon.
.......
It wasn't long until we were on our cruise. We were about to go through the scary tunnel when our skipper needed someone to help him drive. The birthday princess was chosen!
~.....
She even received a Jr. Skipper license! Capt'n Ana did a great job!
We had a great ride though the jungle and got in line to fly on some magic carpets when we spotted two scallywags waiting in line.
Dave & Alex spent some time at the Pirates League while the girls were at the BBB. Dave said it was really fun and Alex had a great time with it. It might just be me but I think Dave had a better time with it. LOL

I don't know 1 person who doesn't like Mickey Bars!!!Nope...not a fan. I don't like pineapple and give Mark the pineapple slice they put in my Pina Colada every time. But I like Mickey Bars...does that count?
Thanks!!!!!! It really was a great day in MK.... possibly one of the best.
Thank goodness Juliana got us through that tunnel!! LOL
I'm sure he will try it again... they have APs so they are there often... But I'm sure he won't try it for a while.
I hope Megan liked SM! We haven't been on that for a while...
You never had a Dole Whip????
Yes
you need to go back! 
I've never seen anyone drive on the JC before... it was really cool!

Yes, note to self, always carry Mickey lollipops!
LOL.... She does ask us how many years till she gets her drivers license sometimes....That's such a cute video from JC! So did Juliana end up driving any of the cars from the parking lot around?
Wow. You haven't had one either? Amazing.Alright, I SERIOUSLY need to try a Dole Whip one of these days! I always pass the stand when it's too early and closed!
I know you won't be reading this since you are in WDW.....
If I remember correctly, I think you know this feeling too.
I'm sure you've stole a few PUNnies from here.That one always cheers me up! It must be the quality humor.
She drives through the no-wake zones already... I think next year I'll let her open it up a bit.
Looking back, I don't think there was anything else we could of fit in to this day!
It really was a great MK day!
Oh no, another IASW hater!Hey, BTMRR wouldn't be a thrilling enough ride if some percentage of little kids didn't get scared on it. It'd be like....IASW!
Castle picture? Who? Where? When?So cool that Juliana got to drive the Jungle Cruise boat! I think that's almost as good as her picture on the Castle.

Thank you for the Halloween Wishes!Oh Tim..As always I am SO far behind, but just LOVE your updates! I have never been on the Jungle Cruise when they let someone captain the boat! Juliana must have truly looked like a Princess who deserved lots of Pixie Dust!
I hope to catch up on your report tonight.
Happy Halloween!!
Thank you for the Halloween pics... I'll have to show them to Juliana!Well, I'm not sure Juliana will be able to get out and Trick or Treat after seeing your pictures of the snow on Facebook. But, in any event, I wanted to wish all of you a Happy Halloween.
We get to go trick-or-treating Saturday night... I'm actually off so I'll get to go!

I didn't think to take video... since it wasn't my kid, I was just consoling him.Sorry Juliana's cousin didn't like BTMRR. Had the same experience with my youngest...that's not a good time. But it does make for some good video with which to humiliate him when he gets older!
Is it wrong to say I was a bit jealous? Would of it been wrong to bumb her out of the way and take over?
Now only if it came with a side of bacon...
She was really excited! I love the little things in Disney.
Thank you!!!!! Hope the little ones have been well!
It was a great day, with more to come. The ending is really cool!All caught up here!
Thank you! He really is a great baby. He is growing so fast!

Even with warm temps(it hit 60 here today) there still is a ton of snow on the ground.
She is so proud of herself getting her ears pierced. She showed them off to all her friends at school.
Thank you.
I hope these antibiotics do the trick. I really don't want her to goto another doctor for this.
Did you get any snow from this storm? It is melting, but there is still a lot left.
It was really bad here... still 400,000+ households without power in CT.Tim, I could not believe those pictures when I saw them on FB.
I'm sorry Ana still has her ear infection; I hope this new antibiotic works. And way to go Ana on the no crying for the flu shot or ears pierced.
She is a BIG girl.. I can't believe she didn't cry either.
Yes, Kensington is a town. LOL...
I'm glad you were able to get back into your house- without a serial killer in there!
How were you able to get back in anyway? 
I hope she doesn't need tubes. If this med doesn't clear it up we have to bring her to a specialist. I feel really bad for her.

Thanks... I will have the 'real' Halloween pics this weekend when they go trick-or-treating.
This picture turns up at least once on every TR/PTR I do... it's my fault, I'm the one who originally posted it!but this photo had me cracking up
I felt bad for the little guy, he loves trains (hopefully he still does!!!)
She navigated us through the dark scary tunnel! And did a fine job to boot!!YAY
...good think you didn't run into those scary pirates on the ship......she didn't drive you under water falls, did she? (can't watch the video at work. boo)
Glad you didn't lose power. I hope this is just the end of last winter and not a foreshadowing of what is in store for us this season!!!WOW
Glad your family got power back soon. this storm had some wicked hits -- people in my area are still out of power too. crazy! Hope its not a sign of the winter to come!

LOL I wasn't sure I had the town right, was going off m Memory.....which isn't so hot these days lol. I am going to visit him in a couple weeks.
Still no serial killer found in my house yet. I was able to get in through a side door in the garage. But the key was moved, so it was quite an ordeal lol. Still can't get the front door open.
I feel bad for her too. My brother had tubes twice. Just annoying with swimming. Poor thing. I hope it doesn't get to that point for her.

Have you seen the Subaru commercial with the little girl behind the wheel. I always think of you and Juliana when I see it. I think because I have only been reading your reports for about a year, and I went back to read the early ones, so I have watched her go from a little munchkin just getting diagnosed, to the beautiful big girl that she is now, in a very short time.
