CONGRATS On the Tournament WIN!!! Your DD has got to be excited!!!

and now that you have reminded me, Yes, I did read your posts about all the excitement at work. (and the birthday thing too)

was she happy she got to play?? missed layup and all??

she was very happy-she actually got to play and it was a good series of games-the final game was against a very tough team and they didn't think they could beat them-BUT They did and by quite the lead(6pts!!!)

see she's on a 5th grade/6th grade team-and they don't usually play the 5th graders too much because of this-6th grade Tournament(bad coaching ) but this time at least she played all 3 games (even if one was for 4.9seconds)

I thought so!!! good planning-my DH would never suggest anything like that-we haven't been away ALONE!!!! in the entire +20 yrs we've been married and he just laughs when I suggest something like that-but one day we'll do it

Pulaski Day?????

DH only likes to go when its cold here.....

and I have been asking/ telling him I want to go in August with some of my (single) girlfriends that are going and he said "that would be fine its too hot then anyway"

well, as we were sitting talking about the trip, and dates and such.... he was getting a little jealous!!!

then his brother called about the skiing. and after we had the dates for that --- he said "would it be possible to still get a room at disney???" ---



I knew I loved that man!!!

anyway since it fell on a three day weekend for Pulaski day (polish american who was the father of the US calvary-- big holiday in Chicago) we knew it was a go!!!



We've been married only 3 years, but have been together for almost 11. and most of our vacations have had at least one kid with us, if not both. (except for two disney trips-- one of which was our honeymoon)


I'll send some of that pixie dust your way so your DH will pick up on the hint to go somewhere ALONE!!!! (with you )

thanks- it was a great weekend for her

YUP!!!

I told DH I would pack light since it was just the two of us, but as I look at the weather and 4 days... its getting to be a heavy bag again

Its always nice to get away in the winter when there is NO SUN and its COLD!!!

It will probably feel warm to you.

that probably made her MORE excited about basketball!!!

I'm glad you get to go Pam!!! it sounds like a great time

and as I sat here-I do have to say-way back in the pre-kid days we did go on a delayed honeymoon to the French Rivera-since we were stationed in the Army in Germany-it was only a bus ride away(and a gift from my Aunt who lives in Germany!!!) but technically I was 3months pregnant so one kid was with us

I just realized I will be there at the same time you will be there. I am going with a Girlfriend to celebrate her B-day.

it does at first!!! then you get cold just like the rest of you in Florida do when it gets below 40

so did you get that freezing temps this weekend or is it back to being warm

Pulaski Day?????

Its a holiday to honor the "father of the american Calvary" Casmir Pulaski a Polish American helped George Washington ---- way back when

I think its a national holiday but not really celebrated, at least its a state of illlinois holiday... and in Chicago its a big holiday (due to the number of Polish people who live here) we have a big parade, lots of great food and a day off. (but don't forget to pay the parking meters!!!)

not if you guys are still as cold as you have been the last few days!!!

lets hope for a little warmer!!! I'd be happy in the upper 50's or warmer!!!

if I only have to wear a sweatshirt or so--- no heavy coats. (been there, done that!!)

It got cold last night but I think tonight is the big freeze warning night. Especially for Strawberry and blueberry growers. BIG WORRY NIGHT FOR THEM.

I think it is going to stay cold until mid-week than warm up a bit.

You might be okay. We don't seem to keep the cold weather for more than a couple of days. It has been so freaky here lately with the weather.

I didn't wear a jacket today. But the wind blows and makes it feel cold.

We are staying at CSR. And I think she wants to hit all the parks. I told her to just tell me what she wants to do and I am there. So all the planning is up to her.

 

[tubachick]

gonna be leaving in a little while.

going up to Lake Geneva (WI) for Dinner with both kids (and DH too) but wanna get out before the evening rush.

were only about 20 minutes to the WI border so its not too bad of a trip.

well, I am an MGM girl, so we will definately be there, then we want to try to get over to AK to see if we can get on EE. then the rest is up to the weather and relaxing. We do have ADR's already so we'll be floating around the rest of the time. If you find out any other info on where you'll be .. we can try to "bump" into each other.
