Nan, your pictures are gorgeous! I know you have more...share please!

Wait til you all see what I âm putting togethér for our cruise shirts! You're gonna love em! I've come up with a front and back design that includes a hidden Mickey.

I still have room at our nc house the first week of sept. Aisling, the invité is out there. Brenda, wanna come east a week early? Mom, we have lots of empty beds our second week down there.

The last week of august is our first week. The house is gonna be filled with twenty somethings that week. Rose and my kids will be there with all their friends.

I agree, Nan, loved your pictures. Had to put my glasses on I thought there were twins standing there.

Speaking of pictures, Colleen, love yours. Looking forward to San Diego pictures.

That's my girl - we will have great shirts.

Also, thanks for the invite to OBX. Would love to go; but, won't have any vacation time left. If anybody from this group goes they will absolutely love it.

WELCOME home Jill - hope (KNOW) you had a great time!!! Did you get your new HP book too? Since DH & I both had to work today - he was too tired to go car shopping (said i could go by myself if i wanted to) - so i've had most of the afternoon to start reading mine...he wants to watch 'boxing' later swo guess i'll have all night to ready too

Hi All! Hope everyone's having a great weekend.

Nan - loved the Hong Kong pictures. Looks like you had a fabulous time!

Tig - can't wait to see the new cruise shirt!

We're on a countdown! We leave for DL on Friday. Grim took Friday off, so we're leaving earlier in the day than planned. Wish us luck with a 10 month old in the car for 5 hours!!

Hope everyone enjoys their Sunday.

Bye for now,

Hi Brenda,

Yes, we had an awesome time at WDW. Just imagine - the oldest in the family - and - the youngest in the family. (Although, she keep telling me to behave) I liked the after hours. since we stayed at a resort they let us stay later. You get to ride the rides that normally the line is two years long.

No, I havn't gotten the HP book yet. I will get the audiobook & probably listen to it on my next road trip.

We did see POTC & HP movies while at WDW. Also, really good.

 

[tiggerwannabe]

I wanna see pictures!

I know you have some mom

I'm sitting here with penny on my lap in the shade enjoying a vodka and oj

John and me had a nice weekend, two days at the beach and a day at home.

Dede, how is piper in the car on a normal day? My son loves the car, britt couldn't stand it. I know you all will have a gréat time and hubby will take lotsa pictures. I took a few over the last couple days that I will share over the next.

I have the logos almost ready just gotta put thèm togethér.

I've been reading my passporter guide to the cruise line! Gréat book! Next year will be void of side trips. Only my nc trip and the cruise on next years agenda.

Oh yeàh, and a magicmeet in between.

Gotta get to dinner,
Ttfn,
C.

OK OK, we have 2 ride pictures (tower of terror & dinosaurs) the rest are photopass. I will print you a set.
I'll photobucket some in a couple of days for the rest to see.

Well, today I decided after work, since I have to go to the bank I'll go to the local mall & pick up HP.

WRONG!

The mall that once had 2 bookstores now has none.

I guess I'll wait another day & take a bike trip tommorrow to the Barnes & Noble a few miles farther away.

I gave my 94 Chry LeBaron to Tiggs son (my DGS) & he & his sister got pretty good use out of it.

When my lease runs out on this car (April) I am thinking about a convertible, perhaps a Mustang. When they first came out in '65 I fell in love with it.

Oh yeah when i was 16 & looking for my 1st car....ALL i wanted was a '65 classic pony mustang....but never found one

I drove a couple of sporty cars yesterday - but stayed with a sedan...for the room & the ride....Ryan should get quite a few years out of the Acura...it's 8 y/o old but if he can make it last at least these last 2 yrs of hs - that would be a good thing...

 

[tiggerwannabe]

I have the perfect souvenir...

We ran out of papertowels earlier, I opened a drawer and found a pile-o-napkins and gave em to DH. He took one look at it and said, "ooh! Disneyland!"

 

[bride2007]

Good Morning Mateys!!

We are on the 2nd page so I'm giving us a bump.

My older son's first car (truck) is a red Chevy. He still has it and just put a new engine in it. He wants to fix it up because it is his baby. My younger son got a Jeep Wrangler and took it Four Wheeling and threw something and he also needed a new engine. He then proceeded to get a DUI and hasn't been driving for a year. KIDS & CARS!!!!!!!!!!!!

OHHHH - i don't even want to think about that day....but really glad on how STRICT the law is these days...so different than when we were 16 - 17 - 18...etc

Sounds like he'll enjoy DL your next trip out...has he been before?

 

[JadeDarkstar]

morrning mateys how are we all doing today. its rainy here and I like rain I wish it would be cooler in stead so humad.

 

[tiggerwannabe]

Yes, I think he'll enjoy DL

No, as far as I know he's never been...

He enjoys a good amusement park, we've been to many and always have a good time together He's my biggest kid and as I always say, the one that'll never grow up.

Gotta love it!!! Dale used to have this button that said "Why Grow Up?" SOOOO true isn't it???? Well that will be a lot of fun for you to take him there!!!

 

[trinibjill]

Just remember this

Once young, forever immature

Now that's my motto

I now have in my possession HP on CD. I am going to transfer it to my itunes - put it on my ipod - and on my driving to WDW on the 3rd of Aug I will listen to it.

Now you say how can I go all those days without listening to it/ While at the bookstore I checked out page ??? (somebody told me that was where the page is on Harry) found out what I wanted to know & I am ok with it.

Hi Jade, wow, I didn't think it ever got humid in Arizona, even when it's raining!

I've been avoiding this thread with all the talk of cars. I just spent a small fortune repairing my Caravan and Chad's Neon...oil leaks that turned out to be bigger issues. And the gas prices, OMG, it's out of control. So when I see talk of cars, I run the other way!!!!!!!!!!!

Brenda, you mentioned your interest in Cabo...Chad and Louise are actually in San Jose del Cabo(sp), and LOVE it there. He called a few times, and maybe I can get him to write a TR when he gets home.

I'm really bummed about not getting decent airfares out of NYC for our December trip to Universal. I really can't see spending over $500 a ticket. I keep telling myself if I have to, then I have to. But I don't want to. And none of us wants to drive, so that's out. There's still time to hope, though.

Nan, I forgot to tell you...when I was looking at your Hong Kong photos, I noticed how elegant your mom looks. Did you say she's 80? She's a very lovely lady.

 

[CADZNYCHC]

Jill ~ that is PERFECT!!!

Aisling - boy we've missed you!!! Keep checking those airfares....hopefully you can find something a little more 'reasonable'....(don't rates drop for future trips after Labor Day....i think my TR told me that once - i'd wait till then if you can) GOOD LUCK!!!! Would love to hear what Chad & Louise think of the Cabo San jose area....
