What a day!!! I've spent literally about 8 hours editing photopass since yesterday! We ended with just over 750 photos! Woo hoo!
Then SIL found the photobook and I've been tinkering with that, uploading some of my own photos (we took 450 pics ourselves!!!) and it looks really nice! Now let's see what she has to say about it...... She put pics in there of just her and DH where I put in a bunch of the kids. Sorry, this trip was not about me and DH, it was about the grandparents and kids this time. Not that SIL and BIL would know - they just used them as nannies - DH and I about lost it a couple of times! Calm down, Kara - deeeeeeep breaths......
OH, I can tell she's ticked off now. I removed a family photo that she put in, because my husband (her brother, the son of the people paying for the trip!) was covered up by someone else. I put in one where their baby was sleeping in the stroller, and she just emailed and said that wouldn't work because the baby couldn't be seen. Yes, he is there, just asleep! This could get fun now.....
OK, the big blowup of the week happened on our last day. It started out with her yelling at her DH all morning. Who knows why, but they basically waited to pack up their car right when we all were ready to head to the bus. Very poor planners, and so inconsiderate of everyone else in our group. Actually, MIL and FIL were fine the whole trip. Just SIL and even BIL which I didn't expect.
Anyway, we had a couple of issues throughout the week. Like they told us they were going to MK on one day, DH, Dd and I went to Epcot (of course!), MIL and FIL left early to go to MK, hoping to meet SIL and BIL. Well, we were getting off Test Track and we see BIL sitting there with the baby. They didn't bother to call anyone and tell us where they were, and MIL and FIL are at MK to meet them!!!!
DH is so mad he doesn't even want to hang with them (thankfully!) so we leave. Get a call a couple of hours later from MIL who says they're on their way to Epcot, and then SIL apparently called MIL to tell her to call us and have everyone meet them in Mexico where they are getting ready to order lunch. No problem, right? WRONG!!! We are at the American pavillion, and start to head back to the WS entrance by Mexico, assuming they are eating at the cantina there. No. We get there, and FIL is about to explode he is so mad. SIL, BIL, and nephew are inside San Angel Inn and haven't even ordered yet!!!! So we now rushed to meet them and have an hour to kill. AND they gave the baby to MIL and FIL cause he was fussy! WTH???? I swear, I'm not making any of this up! BIL said he "screwed up" and thought that was counter service, but DH told me that BIL was mad we weren't eating there..... so it was intentional. I could care less where they eat - it was out of pocket for them. But to call and tell us to come and meet them and then pull that?
There were many issues along those lines, but the big blowup came Saturday morning. DH called his cousin (actually it's MIL's cousin) who lives in Orlando (my US hookup!). They haven't seen these folks since they came to SIL's wedding 8 or 9 years ago. We had all agreed to head to their house around 3ish on our last day for a cookout. DH is on the phone telling his cousin that we're planning to leave the park between 2-2:30. SIL spins around and says, "I thought we weren't leaving until 3! - When did the plans change and why wasn't I told?" DH and MIL tried to talk to her and she blew up (right in line for Peter Pan! I was so embarassed to hear an adult behave this way!) and said that they weren't going to go - because "this is it for DS - WE can't come back whenever we want." Hmmmm, nice slap in OUR face, huh? Apparently we just road trip to Disney every weekend. Then MIL said that was fine and we'd apologize for her. Holy Cow - then she screamed that there was no reason to apologize for her - she wasn't doing anything wrong..... It got ugly. In the end, they went with us, but they drug their feet so we didn't leave the park until 3:00. Then we get back to POP to get our car, and SIL and BIL decide to go inside and use up snack credits!!!!! AND SIL had to pick up a package in the gift shop. Now why in the heck didn't she get her package that morning when MIL and I walked over and got ours? Oh, that's right, CAUSE SHE WAS STILL ASLEEP!!!!!!!
So we waited in the parking lot for them for nearly 1/2 hour. That was just her way of "winning." She's such a witch with a capital "B."
OK, see this look? It's what we got most of the week if we didn't agree with her on something.....
Which is what led to this....
OK, since I've beenplaying all day, I still haven't even showered - and it's 2:30!!! DD will be home soon! Gotta run!
