Yo yo yo. Wud up peepz? Sorry I haven't been on but Shauna will tell you that I'm the worst at trying to keep up with everything. Anyhoo....
So, as you know Shauna is at Disney with the munchkin. Dropped her off yesterday at the airport and they arrived safely. I decided last night to stop by my parents house and cook some steaks. Well, as I'm cooking the steaks and talking to my mom in the backyard I happen to look over at the neighbors towards the front of the house and noticed that a branch on their palm tree is on fire. No one lives in the house so my mom and i walk over but then the fir went out. We hear a strange noise and then the fire is back. As we look up we notice the the palm branches are rubbing against some wires causing the branches to catch fire. We got a hold of the police and they got FPL and the fire truck out and took care of it. It didn't become a huge fire but at one time the middle of the palm tree had a good flame.
I got a picture but i couldnt get the flame. you can see the smoke. Thank goodness it didnt catch the rest of the trees on fire and move to our house.
Well, that was my excitement for Labor Day.
Hi Alucard, hows my favorite son in law? hehehehe Thanks for the picture. Your mom told me about that. That was weird, If you guys hadnt heard that, no telling what all would have went up in smoke. Good thing you guys caught it. They said it was the tree branches on the lines making them arc. Oh my. Weird.
Shauna just called, she is doing fine. Im anxious to see her soon. You doing ok without her? Resting alot? Lots of Love, MOM#2
Im finally able to get on the internet...I tried so hard to get on when I got here yesterday but the modem line wasnt working so they had to send a technicion up here to my room today to fix it. Yesterday we hit MK after we got checked in, and it wasnt bad at all...You can tell its pretty good when you can actually see the castle from the walkway without tons of people in front of it 
We rode Small world (no wait, just walk right on) and then Chris just wanted to walk around. I tried to get him to go on the other rides but he said he missed Papa and was a little sad. But we came back to the room and then at 10pm we watched Wishes from the beach here...we were the only ones out there (it was the quieter beach closer to the Lua. We sat on the nice wooden swing (well I did) Chris played in the sand. He liked it because he could see the fireworks without being scared of them 
So we headed back to the room for a new pair of clothes and spent a good hour cleaning him up and helping him to smell all nice 
Then we hit the monorail again for another attempt. We did finally make it to Epcot at about 3pm or so. We rode spaceship earth (no wait) and then made our way over to nemo (again no wait) then after nemo I decided to see how bad the wait for dinner was at Coral Reef (they said 25 mins) so I figured what they hay...Chris LOVES watching fish and that would be the perfect place for dinner. So we got in sooner than that and got placed at a table right there by the glass and Chris was happy that Mr.Ray as he calls him (a huge stingray)was sitting right next to him. He was even happier when the got his drink and he had a plastic dolphin thing with it...that became his new best friend. After dinner we hit "Figment" I mean "Journey into the imagination" and again...NO WAIT. I know that the bigger rides did have waits...not as bad as I have seen but about 45-60 mins depending on which one. But we didnt go on any of those since Chris usually doesnt meet those hight requirements anyways. 
I am going to go back and read and catch up on everyone's posts because I havent done that yet
