I have been so busy. I guess I have missed a lot. After school starts back it seems like I don't have time for anything else. Things just get really crazy. As I was reading everyone's threads to try to catch up on what I missed, I was thinking how much we all seem like family when most of us has not met yet. I think that is WONDERFUL! I am looking forward to meeting everyone. Well, I have to go. My dd has 2 reports due on Wed. and she needs the computer. Oh, you know the vacation we took this summer to Arizona...my dd gets to do a power point over it for her class. We are very happy for her. We are ordering Prickly Pear Cactus Candy for all the kids in her class to go along with it. She is excited as well. Take care everyone and I hope I get to talk with you soon!

Alright, I finally have some pics here from Cabo (I had to do something in between the last minute school shopping and the 10 loads of laundry I need to wash before the first day of school tomorrow). Rather than post pics of the house, I will just give you a link where you can see it...

Now, here is us at our dinner at The office...

This is my husband and his brother trying not to get washed out to sea at the beach by the house...

My BIL and neice snorkeling...

The Ofiice Rambo (aka the shot guy)...

The girls in their matching outfits (my dd's that I had to have custom made), my dd is the tall one...

And the lovely shop that is right next to the dress shop I had it made at...

And this lovely site was on the walkway to the public beach we went to, 2 miles from the house we stayed at...

 

[elgerber]

And one more photo, this is my family last year, spending the day with Torismom and family (minus her dh who was busy finishing their new house, but who WILL be with us this October, right Jenn?)...

 

[kritter]

Erika,

I love the pictures all of them.. I love the outfit your daughter has on....

Your family is sooo very beautiful.....

 

[Coffeemate]

It is nice to hear from you as well. The Prickly Pear Cactus Candy comes from the Prickly Pear Cactus. They extract the juice from the cactus and make the candy as well as brownies and other goodies. It has a different taste from anything else I have tried. But with the right brand tastes pretty good. Take care.

Erika...too funny!!!

We stayed at Dreams Los Cabos and it was only about 4 or 5 miles from that beach (towards the airport)....we went snorkeling at that beach on Wed or Thur.....the catamaran from Cabo was there with a snoreling excursion but we just parked and walked to the beach.....you could not miss that van and the guy who lives in it was taking a nap in it when we were there!!! What a life!!!

Erika and MJ,

Hi Everyone,

I don't know if you have been following the Magic back from the Med, but she arrived in Port Canaveral on Saturday and then took off for an Eastern that same evening. Today she is in St. Maarten. Hopefully this web link works for everyone. Just click on the St. Martin button to see that view. It looks like a beautiful day there. Hopefully we get the same beautiful weather on our trip.

You can save this link and then use it tomorrow to view the Magic in St. Thomas.

I hope the first day of school went well for everyone. It was a hectic morning for us but we made it through. Currently we are counting down to our quick Wonder cruise in mid-October!

 

[torismom]

Erika and MJ loved all the photos. It was fun seeing someplace new!!(not the best pic of me though. LOL I have the funniest look on my face)

We are back from WDW and had a great time. It was hot. The heat index was brutal. LOL We had horrible service at Spoodles but the food was good and Le Celliar was still the best.

Kritter I saw the info about the bounce back when I got home. We were not given anything when we checked out or while we where there. we would have booked. Oh well.

Jenny , welcome from another "Jenny" My son will be 7 when we cruise. What is your sons name? I am glad he will have someone his age!!

Hope everyone enjoyed their Labor Day!!

 

[pinkygirl]

just a quick hello to everyone, been a while since I came by. I received our free disney cruise dvd today and watched it 3 times already
My son tried on the new pirate costume we got him for the cruise next year and it looks so cute on him I just can't wait to find one for DH and myself now. Today was my son's first day back at school (grade one) and he was a little sad when I told him I had to go ( I had to hold back a few tears myself ) but he was really happy when I picked him up later that afternoon. Hope everyone has a wonderful week! BTW I love all the beautiful pictures everyone has been sending in from their trips.

 

[kritter]

Jennifer,

Where did you stay at WDW?? Sorry if you already told me ....LOL!!!
Got any pictures to share??
The bounce back offer sounds great. Sorry you did not get it offered to you...



Pinkygirl,
Glad to hear your sons day went well. The twins started today tooo..

Hope got off the bus crying since the bus driver said to the kids, "I hope I can remember how to get you all back to your houses?" So she started crying along with a few other Kindergarteners. Not the say to kids who are soo very small on the first day.

I will post some pics. tomorrow..

 

[pinkygirl]

kritter.....AH what a naughty thing to say to little ones, I know the busdriver probably thought it was funny but not to little ones. Hope she didn't cry for too long. Can't wait to see your pics, wish I could post some too but I don't think I can yet maybe cuz I'm still a newbie perhaps? Anyone know?

 

[kritter]

She did better today.

Here are some photos..
