Hey all!

We spent the day at Cedar Point on Saturday. Kaleigh loved it. The park was actually very clean. Of course there was no magic, but it was still fun.

Spent the day in the yard again yesterday. I think I am done for now except for maintenence.

Sandy: I don't even want to see snow.

Today will be a quiet day.

I have been on a wild goose chase trying to find personal items for Tyler. You know that he is on the special diet but along with that it requires specific sunscreens, shampoos, conditioners, hand soap, body soap, hand sanitizers and the list goes on. I traveled this whole town as I wanted everything NOW because he is having a very rough time. I found some and the rest I found on drugstore.com. Phew, I feel better now.

Denine, I loved all that snow. We didn't have to shovel it......lol.

I forgot to add that we are staying at the Swan for 60.00 less than what I could get the Hyatt for. I am really excited. We figure we can go to DTD and do some shopping. I think we get in around 5. I am thinking about contacting Faith as they can get us into MK for free. I just hate to take advantage of them.

Didn't check the board all weekend. Just checked it and I am really concerned about Tyler. I would have called you Sandy! Nonstop?? Between that and knowing about the little girl you must really be stressed! how is he? How are you holding up?

Sandy Can't give you enough!

Heidi- You need this too.

How is Stacey? Bless her heart. I bet she is relying on strength she never knew she had.

Barb, you really know how to tug at my heart. Thank you so much for thinking of us. It was hard knowing about that little girl and seeing him. I pick my cuticles when I am nervous and seriously every finger I have is bloody and scabbed. Then at the walk yesterday there were so many teams that walked "in memory of....". Man, that was the kicker!! Stacey took the weekend off. Ted and I pretty much had the kids full time. Love you

 

[wildernessgirl]

To the VanHorn's!!! I know things are hard right now, but you all are very strong and I KNOW Tyler and all of you will work through this. Sending you LOTS and LOTS of pixie dust your way!!!!

Well tomorrow is the last day of school for the kids! Actually it's just a free day with a picnic and games and a final "farewell" to their friends they won't get a chance to see until next school year. It's a great "bonding" experience.

We are all packed and ready to go!!!!! I've just got to pick up the house so we don't come home to a huge mess. The luggage is packed and ready to get loaded into the car for Wednesday!!! I got all our clothes into 2 big suitcases!!! Anna Marie is taking one and then I have a med. size one that I'm taking somethings down that we are going to leave down in the lockers. So on the way back, Anna Marie's suitcase can fit into this med. one so we will be go for everything.

Denine, OK you got your lard done, so now what's the excuse of not coming for a visit? You just don't love us anymore!!!

Well gotta run! Have a good night all!

TTFN

Oh Julie, I am so excited for you!!!! If the house doesn't get picked up, don't stress. Go and have fun! I always clean thoroughly before trips too but this last time I couldn't because of my foot. I still had a good time!! WOW, you are some packer. I can't believe you get all that into such few suitcases. Even with the locker I am shocked! Bless your heart, thanks for the pixie dust!

 

[Denine]

Julie: I hope you guys have an awesome time. Have a margarita for me! Maybe I got the yard done, but my house is a mess.

Sandy: I had no idea Tyler had to have special toiletries as well. You guys are a great support for Stacey and her family.

Barb: Welcome back from the weekend!

We may actually get a baseball game in tonight!

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Denine, good luck with the baseball game! We might get hit pretty hard with rain this afternoon. The clouds are brewing, it is humid and the coloring is weird. We had a tornado not to far from here on Sunday.

Julie, have a fantastic time. Think of all of us. LOL

 

[wildernessgirl]

Hi everyone! Well I have a kindergartner, 3rd grader and a fifth grader!!!!!

Makenzie got her straight A's again!!!! Garry got all A's and B's (from this teacher, that is great! She's a piece of work). We had a BLAST at the parties today!! They really had a good time. Both classes had pizza and treats and played outside. I've gotten more sun the last 4 days (plus last sunday from the Indians game) then I have had in a long time! I've got a pretty good tan going on right now, I almost look like I belong in Florida! LOL!

We are all packed and loaded and ready to go! Our flight leaves at 2:25pm tomorrow and we will be there around 4:30ish. We are already checked in at BWV's and the airline as well. When we get down there, our room keys and folder will be ready for us and we don't have to wait in line at the front desk so that is a neat perk! We are soooooooo looking forward to this vacation! We will have the laptop so I will post from down there. I will try and post before we leave tomorrow. I'm gonna give Heidi a call when I get down there.

Well, that's about it for now. I will check back in later!

I hope you get your game in Denine. Hey, did you give your Owners Locker a name yet? We named ours, but I'm not sure if I'm gonna keep the names yet.

Sandy, any updates on Tyler? How long will he have to have the special shampoos and stuff?

Barb, I hope you will give us an update on Ethan and Kara soon!

Hi Sally, Susan, Jeanne, and Bonnie!!!

TTFN

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Julie, no surprise with you and a tan. You always have a gorgeous one. Am I jealous? You bet I am!!! Brag, brag....such a short flight. Four hours for us. Yuck! Good for the kids and their grades!! Tyler will be on the toiletries for as long as he is on the diet. Hopefully without jinxing and saying too much........so far so good since switching.

 

[jiminyC_fan]

BYE JULIE AND FAMILY, WE WILL MISS YOU! Have a great time.

 

[Mickey02]

Heading off to bed. gotta get up in 4 1/2 hours. BLAH!

Julie Thank you so much for the horse. You made my day!! Have a great time in Disney. Congrats to the kids on the great grades!

Jaymee leaves Friday for Qatar. I am trying real hard not to think about how much I am going to miss her.

How is Tyler?

Until tomorrow......

 

[Mickey02]

Good Morning!

Last one to post last night and first one this morning?? Wow! I'm impressed. Where is Heidi? She usually posts first.

Heidi- I have to go back and look for your trip report I must have missed it. I bet you guys had a really fun time!

Only a couple more days till Jaymee leaves. She is at the sad stage right now. Once she is gone it will be better for her. Missy & the kids and Tiffany are all visiting her right now. We are planning on going there in October when she gets back for a couple of days. Then Disney in December!!! YAY!! We also have some friends that will be there at the same resort at the same time. Should be a SUPER fun trip.

Ethan missed his first T-Ball game because he is in Nebraska. He was so cute at his last practice. They got shirts and hats. Ethan has never worn hats before and really didn't like them. After the practice we went to Penneys and I bought him some new shoes. He did not want to take his shoes or hat off to go to bed. Missy finally convinced him he could not sleep in them so he had them right beside his bed all night. In the morning he came down half asleep holding on to his hat and shoes asking Missy to put them right back on. I can't wait until next Monday when he will get to play.

 

[Mickey02]

Ok I get it now. Heidi must still be gone. Guess I will just have to wait to hear all about her trip.

 

[Denine]

Barb: Cute Ethan story!

Julie: Congrats to the kids and their grades! Have a safe flight!

Kaleigh finally got to play a game last night. She did great!

Supposed to rain today.

I may go to a library program this evening on container gardening.

Kaleigh was already missing school so I got her a bunch of science books out of the library when I signed her up for summer reading. She loves the Magic Schoolbus books.

 

[Denine]

OK, I am moving up in the world. I just joined Facebook.

 

[Mickey02]

WOOOHOO DENINE!! Now if I just remember how to spell your last name.

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Hi guys,

a sunny morning leading into intense storms this afternoon.

Barb, you are too funny. Heidi comes back tomorrow around 6 at night. It is raining a lot in FL. It rained at CC as well. Oh my gosh, I loved the story about Ethan. It was soooooo cute. Hang in there with Jaymee. If you need someone to talk to you can call on me! Your next WDW trip sounds like a blast.

Denine, Facebook, huh? Wow, you ARE moving on up. Ok, so I have only been on a couple of months myself. I find it to time consuming and really don't get on much at all.

 

[Mickey02]

Good Morning!

Quick post while the phones are slow.

Bummer about the rain. Glad they were able to spend a few extra days in Disney.

Thanks Sandy for the support, you are awesome. I talked to Jaymee last night said she is getting grochy she is usually always happy, I feel for her. Glad Missy and Tiffany are there with her. Fun sister time for them. Louis is working a lot so Jaymee would have been alone a lot of the time.

Julie-Thanks again for the horse, I love it! Hows that Disney trip going? Are you guys meeting up with Heidi?

Denine-Got your request on Facebook. YAY!!! Another way to talk! I LOVE doing the Farm. It is so fun building a farm.
