okay, table tilt is FUN!!!! I rocked at that! Well, compared to the kids anyway! LOL I also liked the Hula Hoop! that was fun! I can really see us getting alot of use out of this! Haven't tried any of the 'trainer" things...like the yoga. Connor likes the running....he's jogging along and says, "HI Chuck" "Hi Mario" too fun!!

oh it sounds like alot of FUN...maybe I should get one too? we'll see, maybe this summer!

Hello all!!!!!!
It is very windy out here today!!!!! The wind blew so hard earlier, I thought we were having a small earthquake because it shook the windows a little!!! That's the first thing we think about here in earthquake country when the house makes any noise!!! LOL
Randy is off and we had a nice time just hanging out with each other!!!! We went out to breakfast and then went shopping and bought some shirts and tops for summer and the cruise!!!!!
I hope everyone had a great day!!!!!!!

Hi Candy.....missed you yesterday but we did have a nice chat with Randy!
it must be so nice to spend time just the 2 of you!!! I know we don't get that too often LOL
hope you'll be on later

Evening kiddies

Another work day is done and DH was nice enough that we went out to supper instead of coming home and cooking. He's such a sweet boy.

Not much new here.

About the tshirts, I say we do the mass email and sned it with possible ideas. I don't know how often y'all check the website but i tend not to check in very often there.

And as for the parrot hats, I saw them in my Dollar Tree yesterday. I can pick some up if ppl want to. Or we could mass order them. There are order sheets in the store.

So whatever anybody wants to do about that is fine

And once again I'm left out of the Wii loop. No Wii therefore no Wii Fit. they sold out pretty quick in my store, though I did see 1 woman return 2 of them 3 hrs after she bought them

HI Maureen! we're getting some hats too...Sandra offered to get a couple for us.....it's going to be hilarious seeing a bunch of people walking around with parrot hats on

I just happened to stop in Walmart today when we picked the van up after having it serviced, and as I was on my own, I went to electronics to ask, and they actually happened to have a Wii in stock! So I picked it up, and now am contemplating putting it on a shelf and hiding it till Christmas...

it would be an awesome Christmas gift for the family, don't you think? And over the next few months could pick up accesories/games so everyone could have something fun under the tree besides the Wii for all?

or am I nuts and should come up with another reason to pull it out sooner...

LOL!



Like getting myself the Wiifit to help with the slimming down prior to the CRUISE!

a wii for chirstmas is a great idea! that is if you can wait 7 months I know I couldn't LOL

Candy

Sounds like you had a nice day. Rich has off on Monday but i don't. I will be making time and a half though which'll be nice. Rich has so much vacation time to use its very scary.

Speaking of buying clothes for the trip....
What are you ladies planning to wear for Formal night? Just how many women on the cruise actually wear long gowns that night?

I have 2 of them, But Rich has no tux and we're not renting him 1 for the cruise. Speaking of Rich I want to get him a nice suit since he doesn't have 1 About how much do suits cost these days. We'll likely be getting it from Men's Wearhouse.

I think I will be wearing a gown. It's been in my closet forever though LOL And DH will be wearing a suit I still have to get more clothes for the cruise too...can't wait to do that

watching American Idol. It's amazing how many people call in to vote!

Heidi, it would be hard to keep it a secret for that long!! We had bought ours in October of last year to give at Christmas and it was hard to not spoil the surprise!!!! But I have to admit, it would give you plenty of time to gather all the accessories and games. Our entire family has enjoyed playing the Wii.

Candy, sounds like you had a great day! I love those days....but now that I am working, they are few and far between.

Maureen, glad you enjoyed a nice dinner out!! I haven't made it to the Dollar Store to see what they have in stock...maybe tomorrow...after Connor gets his impressions made at the orthodontist!!

I forgot about that question! I bought a dress to wear to Connor's 5th grade graduation..it's black with big flowers all over it. Colton picked it out for me. I think I am going to wear that. Steve will probably just wear a pair of dark dockers and a suit coat.

My Wiifit just made it in from the garage, but who knows when it will actually get opened! I am trying to pack tonight, which of course, is hard when I have to wash all the clothes first. Then tomorrow night is Indiana Jones, then we are leaving town Friday morning. I probably won't be on much tonight and tomorrow and then not again until Sunday night! Someone send me an e-mail with the new thread when it gets started please!!

[WDWCrazzyCunninghams]

HI Kristin!! You poor thing! Had to get up early! I just have to tease you a bit! I am up before 6 everyday!!! Except for weekends....and the dogs usually only let me sleep til about 7. Sunday was a HUGE exception to the norm!!!!

we had a mix of rain and sun today. Sun most of the morning, which was nice for the kindergarten and first graders as they had field day today. My friend has forewarned me....the field is a swamp! Wear your boots! Between the mud, the puddles and the goose poop, it's a mess!! It started to rain about 1pm....again. Thankfully, it's supposed to be dry and warming up for the entire weekend!!!!!

Besides Erika...have a great trip...is anyone else traveling for the holiday weekend? we are staying put. Steve is working every day but Saturday. We'll be going to see Indiana Jones, mulching, mowing and cooking out! All in one day! LOL He thought about going to the midnight showing tonight, but the boys HAVE to go to school tomorrow!!!! Would be fun though!!!
