NYE Western Cruise 2008 - New Thread

[disneykelly73]

OMG.. its like 8 weeks to go!!! Can you stand it!??!!? I know I cant!!!

YIPPIE!!!!

So. How was everyone's weekend?? Mine was relaxing.. or at least I tried relaxing to the best of my ability!

I am dreaming of the Magic, and the fun to be had!!!

 

[Aisling]

Kelly, I'm getting nervous, the cruise is really feeling close now! It feels like I still hae so much to do, but as Mel said, throw some clothes in a suitcase and go!!!!!!!!!!

Kaz, wow your boys have matured so much since that photo I saw of them with the huge Mexican hats on! I'm so glad you all had a good time. I'm about to read your trip report.

Artie, we only have a few pages to go, and then you step in!

Marla, I was thinking about Kara shedding a few tears at the last football game. Bittersweet.

Off to Disneyland my friends.....first time there by MYSELF...should be interesting....

Nan...YES we definitely need to hook up on the 28th - Rus is in charge of making our dinner ressies etc. he's GREAT at that!!! so the two of you can work out the timing etc. & we'll be there!!

B:

Hope your solo Dland day is nice

I'll expect to hear from or to Rus sometime in the future...BUT...Wilson won his race AGAIN this weekend and that has opened the door for us to maybe want to go to another race on Thanksgiving weekend, so I might have to bail (sorry ) unsure at this point, but just keeping you in the loop of what is going on in our minds.

SO...HE WON!!!! This is the 3rd IKF race in a row that he has won. The end of the season has just totally come together for him. It was a wonderful day, full of drama He did terible in the heat race 5th of 5 and then in the main the leader hit his choke so he fell out and then Wilson just picked off the rest of the pack one at a time. The last leader at the 2nd to last corner on the last lap It was so thrilling to see Wilson take the lead from the #1 driver in the series again Because of his great finish and because of how the #2 overall driver finished (last) Wilson was able to move from 3rd overall to 2nd overall for the season. It's been a great time to savor and enjoy all his (& Paul's) hard work. I'm a very proud mama this week Next weekend he has his last club race and it is a pressure filled event. Based on a bad finish last month and a bad situtation (where the kid above him was DQed but they still gave him his points) Wilson is in a place where he has to keep a driver within 20 points (2 or 3 places) of him in order to keep his 2nd place over all for club level. DRAMA until the very end...

OK, i have stayed away from the candy!

Way to go Wilson!!!!!

Have fun Brenda!

Kelly, you are too cute. I can just picture you all excited about this trip.

Marla, I know this may sound crazy, but I miss the weekend football games. I miss seeing everyone.

I have to go write a message for Kelly for the yearbook. They always put a baby picture with a message from the parents in the yearbook for the seniors. It has to be in by this Friday. I'm not good at these things, they just make me cry more!

Have a great day everyone!!!!

Artie, we only have a few pages to go, and then you step in!

As Donald Duck would say, "Oh boy Oh boy"

I promise under my leadership there will be change, I am ordinary guy just like Joe the plumber. I appreciate your support.

 

[disneykelly73]

I am just bubbling over w/excitement for this trip. It will be Brian & I's last week long trip w/o kids. Its our last hurrah.. except, I can not drink! lol..

Yeah Wilson.. congrats.. can not wait to meet the real life speed racer!!

Aisling, in addition to the clothes you are just tossing in the suitcase, you need to pack up Brian. I want to hug and kiss his furry adorable face!

I can no longer watch the Travel Channel's DCL special, since it went w/the old dvr back to Direct TV. I must find when they are putting that on again, so that I can relive. Maybe I should start searching for my old DCL dvds... hmmm..

Monday is almost over for me.. Thank god. Didnt want to come to work today. wanted to SLEEP!!!! This baby is making me TIRED!

 

[disneykelly73]

Artie, you crack me up!!!

What will be the changes that you are proposing? what is your plan for the thread?!?!?! Your constiuents (sp?) want to know.

 

[artman]

For anyone just joining us, it would seem that Kelly is married to Aisling's dog. It's like a horrible episode of The Family Guy.

Artie, you crack me up!!!

My first order of business will be to place an tax on excitement.

I will then institute a curfew of 10:00pm Atlantic Standard Time, so that you people can't talk about me while I am getting my beauty rest.

OMG that's hilarious!!!!!!!!!!!!

For your information, my Brian is NEVER getting married! He's going to be devoted to his mama forever, unlike my other two sons!


Nan, tell Wilson he has nerves of steel!!!

 

[Anjelica]

So I guess I have been replaced as the good luck charm since he won without me being there. I was thinking about going to the Village Bistro at Santana Row on Friday 11/28/08. Chel and I hope you and Paul can make it. Let us know.

No you are not replaced, you just started the good luck or continued it I should say..he won the last 3 IKF races in a row. Of course you are more than welcome to join us in Dixon next Sunday and be a good luck charm It really was so nice of you to come and give him and us your cheering and support

Hey did the tape turn out good? I'm hoping for a copy to magically appear on youtube or in my mailbox any day now Thanks so much for helping with that disc, Paul was able to dup it for the mom that couldn't get it locked or whatever it was called you did to it.

Paul & I didn't want to horn in on your dinner, but wanted to offer a pre-dinner drink(s) and hor'dourves at our place. Let me know if that is ok with you and what time is your preference we're open to whatever works for you.
