Hi all....wow....found the new thread!!! Can't believe you guys chat so much....away from the boards for a few weeks and you guys rack up the posts!!!
Big doings here in NY with the Giants celebration!! Going to be a big ticker tape parade and celebration at Giants stadium. We are outside the city but the whole area is hopping.
Well, let's see what has been happening....DD19 left for London for her study abroad semester early January and we miss her so much!!! Thank goodness for Skype....almost every day we can see and talk to her through Skype. She is keeping really busy and has already been to Wales, Amsterdam and is going to Dublin at the end of the month. Allie is a fashion major and one of her classes in London was picked to work the London Fashion Show next week!! They get to dress models and seat the people, keep the lines moving ect. We are going to visit her soon for a week....back to jolly ole London!!!.
Got most of our cruise plans set.....booked our airfare already...Continental had some great fares out before Christmas for October....
We decided on going to WDW for 2 nights pre cruise and then spend the night before at the Marriott Residence Inn in Cape Canaveral. We booked Wilderness Lodge at WDW.
Only thing really left is car rental and waiting to book Palo, excursions, etc.
How is everyone doing??? Seems like you are all very busy!!! Sorry to hear about all the kids being under the weather with various things....we had the flu come through and hit oldest DD and hubby.....I avoided it luckily!!
I am really going through cruise withdrawl though.....it will two years since our last cruise when this cruise comes around.....I really want to go NOW!!!
Last week took DD to Dancing with the Stars tour for her birthday. It was great...but poor Wayne Newton.....he could barely sing but kept plugging along doing about 3 or 4 songs....his voice kept cracking and disappearing....found out later he recently had throat surgery but I think he should have said something about it to let people know he was recovering....many who don't know his career must have thought he was just a horrible singer....there would be a collective groan in the audience each time he came out on stage to sing. We felt very bad for him but he carried on like a trooper!!!
Then I went to see the Hannah Montana move/concert with some friends at midnight on Saturday!!! I had to see what all the hoopla was about. Well...she really is a great little performer. I enjoyed it.....it was funny...here we were 8 adult friends surrounded by tons of little kids....I was really surprised how many parents took their real little ones to the midnight show...it was sold out but everyone had a good time!
Anyway....just wanted to keep up with the thread.....glad I found the new chapter!!!
