Glad you enjoyed your party Kathy! I bet it was a blast!! After being in Barbados for my 27th bday I told my DH I wanted to go back for my 40th. Well, after being on the cruise, I think I changed my mind! But I want to be a really special cruise...to Hawaii or something

Tim: I would LOVE to see the snorkeling ones you took! I was really impressed with the coral and plant life there. That's awesome for your wife to come home to a suprise bonus!

I spent all yesterday evening/night making a photo book on Shutterfly. I should have been preparing for Thanksgiving, but I got a 40% off code in an email that expires today so I had to do it! (BTW it's Book40 then Ship30 for free shipping on top of the 40% off if anyone wants to do it today.) Here's the book, there are just too many good picks to only post a couple:

Hi everyone,

my internet is slower than dial up this morning, so when it finally straightens up I will look at your album Danielle. It wont download it right now. Usually when this happens in a couple of hours it ok again.

Your so organised. I am still getting over being tired from 2 weeks of vacation. LOL!!!

Today I am making cream wafer cookie dough for Thanksgiving. Its a good dough to make ahead of time then cook off wednesday. I also have an apple pie to make and fruit salad to take to DD's house for turkey day. So thats not alot to do but I still like to do all I can ahead of time.

Anybody here have special plans for the holiday ??

Back when my internet is working properly so I can look at the ablum and post a few more photos myself.

I threw a bunch of pics into my photobucket account but it's blocked here at work. I'll try and get more up tonight/tomorrow. My digi-cam mask (Liquid Image) worked decently, will get some pics up that I took underwater. Apparently, I hadn't mastered the aiming of the lens so half of 'em were cut off. Still got a few good ones though.

No major plans for the holiday, my mother in law lives with us and my entire family is in AZ (where I'm from) so it'll just be the immediate family getting together. I'm still trying to recover from the cruise, looking forward to relaxing this weekend.

Hi Matt,

I will be sure and check in this weekend in hopes of seeing your pictures.
Greg di dthe inderwater photos one trep too. He too had a few cut off and a few good ones. I think practice is the key to that since the water and fish are moving around you plus your moving too.

That just means you need another cruise to go snorkeling again to have another chance to practice.

Danielle,

Those are GREAT pictures, and what a neat idea to put them in a photo book. Sounds like you got a great deal, too. Anyway, the pics are really really great, and will make good memories.

Matt, I sent you a PM, but basically just said that I mailed off the video and pics of Colt and Ryan's 3-on-3 game today. Sorry it took me a week to mail it, but it ended up being a crazier than planned week last week.

But you should get it by the end of this week or early next week.

Looking forward to seeing the pictures, Matt!

Kathy Looks like we are getting similar weather as you... cold, blustery, and it was in the low 30's over the weekend and still cold today. We were supposed to get some snow, but never did (at least where we live). But we have a new storm coming in tomorrow, so we need to brace for lots of wind and rain! Of course, Thanksgiving in Seattle would never seem like a real thanksgiving without a huge windstorm with threats of power outages.

Hope everyone is doing well! Can't wait to see more pictures.

Ok here are a few photos from the week before the crusie at WDW.

This is the Rock N Roll section of The All Star Music where we stayed on the 3rd floor.

At Epcot right at the entrance is a mock up of the ship for the food and wine festival

Me at Hollywood Studios sitting on luggage. Yes it was windy so not a good hair day. LOL!!

The parade at Hollywood studios. The Toy Story float.

a couple more parade shots.

me with a couple of friends.

A family shot

Greg and Peter are in the boat coming over the drop.

Near the pool at the resort

 

[mom x4 grandma x4]

We were by the Piano pool off to one end so it was quietand not crowded at all.

This is the Western music rooms. The boots are 3 stories tall.

See how large the drums are. I am standing at their base.

The 3 Cabiaellos, cant spell that but its Donald and his 2 Mexican friends from early cartoons. They are in the middle of a huge guitar shaped pool. They squirt water on people. The neck of the guitar is for kids and handi cap access, then the fret part of the top of the guitar is for toddlers only in swim diapers. Its actually a cool pool made with everyone in mind.

Food court

Store at resort.

Ok, more another time.

Thanks for sharing your photobook, it came out really good

I normally do one too, or else my pictures tend to sit on my computer for ever!

Kathy (GMA) I enjoyed looking at your pictures too, it has been a while since i have been to the "World", so good to see pictures of the parades etc.

Kathy (LTR) glad you had a great 40th birthday party, did you were your dress again?

Kathy is Seattle getting high winds today too? 80 mPH on our coast and maybe 50 MPH here this afternoon along with the rain. At least it will be warmer today. 55, not bad.

Hi Claire,

Yes, I did wear my birthday dress again!! This time, though, I got my hair done by the gal who always cuts my hair. She did a great job!! So, I was all decked out from head to toe. It was super fun!

Oh yes.... we have LOTS of wind! It woke me up several times in the night last night. It's still very windy this morning, and pouring rain (it's pouring right now as hard as it as in St. Thomas... only thing is it's COLD rain... :sad2 ).

But, it's our wind/rain storm time of year, so this is normal weather for us.

Thanks for all the great memories, if you have my email feel free to use it and if you don't feel free to add me on facebook.
