Just stopping in between Vet Appts for the dogs. Kozmo has to be muzzled when we take him!! He is SO protective of me! I always thought he was just being mean, but she said as soon as they took him back, he was a totally different dog! They bring him back in and he starts growling again! Daisy is much easier. She's just there for the party! LOL


Going to make chicken fetaccini alfredo when I get back.

I think we need brownies too....mmmmmmm

Very cool, Candy! And you can share my siggie as long as you stay over in the National League. All bets are off if you're in the World Series though!

Hi guys! I found you again!!!

The cruise question about what to bring in your day bag...... Alcohol! LOL!! A few little sips before the cruise couldn't hurt right?

We will also be dressed up for pirate night as well! I can't beleice that I can get my husband to wear a costume on board, but he does and we have lots of fun!!

Kritter, we have stayed at the Beach club before and we have loved it! The pool is great! The sand bottom pool and the water slide are a nice touch on a hot day! We stay at Boardwalk most of the time since that is where we own most of our DVC points. We have stayed at most resorts on property. The EPCOT resorts are our favorites since you can walk to EPCOT and Disney Studios or you can take the boat if you want to.

Well, that's it for now. My oldest is big on soccer and has practice tonight. She just finished her homework. At least she got a 100% on her spelling pre-test yesterday so we don't have that to study for. Her words were unbelievable this week. She is in 4th grade and here are some of her words:

rhombus
trapezoid
parallelogram
quadrilateral
exclamatory
interrogative
declarative
United States of America
Cuyahoga ( this is county we live in in Ohio)

Glad I'm not in school anymore. I wouldn't have passed it! LOL!!

Have a great day everyone!

 

[WDWCrazzyCunninghams]

Hi Julie!! Good to see you again!! Sounds like her math teacher is in kahoots with her language teacher!! LOL (or are they one in the same?) Good luck with soccer!

Gina, I finally had a minute to look at your cakes! Just beautiful!!!!! You are so talented! I think you need to make us a pirate ship cake for pirate night! LOL Might not travel too well though!

Be back later!

I agree!

Hey Kristin...Have fun at the PTA meeting. Talk to you later!!

Well, that's it for now. My oldest is big on soccer and has practice tonight. She just finished her homework. At least she got a 100% on her spelling pre-test yesterday so we don't have that to study for. Her words were unbelievable this week. She is in 4th grade and here are some of her words:

OMG I wouldnt have passed that test either!! WOW what are they thinking with those words. Its a good thing that we have spell check on the computers these days, there are many simpler words that I have a hard time spelling so I cant imagine those!!

Hi there Kristiin,,,,, we've never stayed there but have heard amazing things about it. We plan to try it in the near future. I'm sure you'll love it.

Good morning all!

Doing by bi-weekly check-in! LOL. Hope all is going well as we count down to our cruise! We had some exciting cruise-related news this week. My sister took in a foreign exchange student on a week's notice because her host family backed out at the last minute. Anyway, she arrived from Germany on Saturday and started school Monday. And...

She's coming on the cruise with us!!!

We are all so excited. She is 17, same ages as my DD and DN so it will work out great. It will be like taking my little kids to Disney for the first time. I can't wait to see her face when she see the Magic!

We have to find her some summer clothes since she didn't bring any but if that's the worst problem we have, we can manage. She has already gone through my DD's closet and has dresses for formal and semi. Heck, she's doing better than me!

Anyway, wanted to share our news! Have a great day!

When did you get her added to your cruise reservation? I tried about a month ago to get my nephew (age17) added to my reservation and Disney said that could not add anyone else in that age group to the cruise.

Any medications you might need, just in case your bags don't get to the room in time. I assume you're coming on board with clothes you can wear to dinner. Again something to keep in mind in case your bags arrive late. Camera (of course). Can't think of anything else off the top of my head, which is weird cause when we board, we always seem to be dragging a whole lot of stuff with us

I bring everything that I will need for one whole night just in case luggage gets lost: toothbrush,makeup etc., and one change of clothes.

Just changed my April trip to stay @ the Beach Club anyone stay there???!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kristin, that's great that you were able to change at 7 months out!!! Beware, once you stay in the Epcot area you may never want to stay anywhere else!!!! The Beach Club is wonderful!!!! I'm still partial to the Boardwalk LOL, but if I had a 2nd choice...

 

[gometros]

so close, but I have to pack up to catch a train for home...

 

[BigRed1]

ok another

Cruise Question:
I have some cute Jeans that have the Disney Characters on them,They look pretty dressy (well I mean like Im imagining Cruise Casual to look like....but everyone says that Jeans are NOT recommended for the dining room right?? Im just trying to decide if I should even pack them...One has eeyore on the leg and then the shirt is a collared shirt with eeyore on it...the shirt is pretty dressy but still I dont want to offend or be taboo on the ship by wearing Jeans in the dining room.

So question is: Has anyone wore jeans and a nice shirt in the restaraunts or is it not preferred??? I know that on the "Wonder" we wore jeans and a nice shirt each night except the formal night but it was only the 4 day cruise and no one on there really dresses up that much even for formal night. I have really nice Dresses for Formal and Semi Formal and yes I even have some dress pants and dress capris that I can bring but in the rare case that I would like to wear some jeans for comfort maybe once or twice that I wouldnt seem so out of place(Yes I am jeans and t-shirt type girl).

Thanks in advance for any help

There have been very heated debates on this subject, not here, but on the main boards. You might consider changing into your jeans after dinner. But it is your vacation, do what you are comfortable with, and don't worry about it!!

When did you get her added to your cruise reservation? I tried about a month ago to get my nephew (age17) added to my reservation and Disney said that could not add anyone else in that age group to the cruise.

Cancellations I would guess...

 

[gssmks]

Gail is your day today going any better??? I know that you were not feeling the best the other day and I am hoping that you are doing better today. I know that you are busy...but I wanted to make sure you were doing good

Yes! My day has been so much better. Thank you for asking. The rest of the week, I will be working all day at the church processing Angel Food orders. And, I just keep remembering: WE LEAVE IN 27 DAYS!!!!!!!!

You guys make me so hungry talking about all this delicious food. We ran through the deli at our local grocery store and picked up dinner.
