October 19th Cruisers again and again... Part 2

[Mickey02]

Good Afternoon!

Cute pictures Stace! The twins looked like they had a very good birthday. Love the ridey toys. I bet Ethan would like that too. I love the cake pictures. And your Mom didn't think they would dig in!

Went to see "Cars" Friday night. It was very cute.

I am going to email everyone pictures of the wedding. Not sure how to post them. Should be able to do it tonight.

Been pricing Disney vacation in September. The deals may be too good to pass up. hummmmmmmmm

Hope everything works out Jeanne. How stressful to have to go on strike. Pixie Dust to you.

Great pictures, Stacey. So much better than ours. I need to talk to you about your camera. I just don't think ours will take that close up of a picture. But then again, you claimed the front for some unknown reason. lol

Barb, you are soooo correct. My prediction was that they wouldn't dig in. They proved this Grandma wrong! So, you are thinking about a Sept vacation, huh? Are they still offering free Disney Dining?

Jeanne, when will you know if you go on strike? That has to be horrible not to know IF!!

Ted took off today so we did a few errands and then ended up going to a movie. We saw "Break Up" with Jennifer Anniston. It was good but bring kleenex if you go.

Barb - I can post the pictures for you if you want me to. I checked my email this morning and did not see anything but just let me know if you want me to post. I can't wait to see the pictures.

I have started to do kickboxing on Monday and Wednesday and it makes me feel so much better. I sleep better at night and just feel healthier. Yesterdays class really kicked our butts!!!!

 

[jiminyC_fan]

I really need to start exercising again (yoga & pilates). My weight is just not stable what so ever this summer. Some of it is definitely ME but some of it I can't figure out.

I was hoping for pictures of the wedding, too. Didn't get it in an email yet either.

Just rented Nanny McPhee and Doogal for the kids today. Hope they are good. If not, a dollar a movie at McDonald's isn't too much to waste.

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Where is Barb today? Putting work BEFORE us, her family? What's up with that?

And then Denine, was she able to fly home or did the storm prohibit it?

Do I ask too many questions?

 

[Mickey02]

Good Afternoon!!!

I have been slacking. I will get the pictures off tonight. Forgot I had a scrap book club last night.

I am thinking of a Sept Disney trip. The prices are incredible right now. We have to book by the 25th of June to get the good rates. I am looking at the 2nd week in Sept.

Sandy-Where did you get the ridey toys? They are sooo cute. The twins looked so cute on them. I bet you are looking forward to the day you get to take them to Disney to meet Mickey. You need DVC Grandma!

Wonder how the weather is in Disney today. Hopefully the storm is far enough away to not affect the weather to much.

If I do book for Sept can you educate me Sandy on how the meal thingy works. Is that what you were making reservations for? Maybe if we are there at the same time we can go to dinner together. When are you guys going?

 

[Mickey02]

Sandy-What hotel are you guys staying in? Are you doing Disney time before or after the cruise? How many days will you be at the parks?

 

[Mickey02]

I get off in 15 minutes. Yay! I really want to go to Disney in September
thinking thinking thinking..............

 

[Mickey02]

making up for lost time

 

[Mickey02]

Does anyone remember Bobby Sherman?

The bluest skies you've ever seen in Seattle....lalalala

Julie Julie Julie do ya love meeeee......lalalalala

 

[Mickey02]

We have not had much rain Sandy. I am remembering you asked me a while ago. Sunday night looked like we were going to get hammered but NOOOOOO

 

[Mickey02]

This is Barb signing off from work.

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Barb, you crack me up. You asked soooooo many questions. Maybe I should call you.

The ride toys came from Target. The bad part is that it looks like they only bought one of each character. They had Pooh, Mickey and the Princesses. Hopefully you can find them. The babies love them.

Disney, we will be in WDW Sept 2-6th BEFORE the cruise. Yes, we were making plans for the restaurants. It is so cool, Barb. You get one counter service, table service and one snack per ticket per day. We don't normally pay much for the food there but this time we are going to go to restaurants that normally we can't afford. Not all restaurants participate and some use two Table service points. If I am correct, the FREE Disney Dining is through Sept. so you should qualify. On the DISboards look under restaurants and then there will be a thread about it at the top. The Dudettes, Heidi and her clan and us will be at All Star Movies. Did I remember everything?

Bobby Sherman??? Of course I remember him. I think I even went to a concert. We got to go to a lot of concerts because my dad was a policeman and for extra money, he would work concerts. Perks, gotta love them.

Ok, Barb, hopefully I did good answering you. Feel free to call me OR I can call you if you need anything else.

 

[DudetteTwo]

They did NOT ratify the contract and voted to STRIKE. Now if they don't negotiate a contract within the next 10 days we strike.

BARB: You need to go down the BEGINNING of September when we are all there. We had a hard time getting some of the dinner reservations we wanted since plenty of people are utilizing the meal package. It is great - you get one snack (like a Mickey Ice Cream), one counter meal and then one table service meal each day!

GRANDMOM & GRANDPOP VAN HORN: I love the presents you bought Joey and Tyler. Also Auntie Heidi got them cute presents too!

I have been having some really hectic days. Car got an oil change this AM, then food shopping, now washing. Nurses, Physical Therapist, Nurses Aide, etc. in & out. Tomorrow I have to go into work from 8 AM until noon just to orient a new hiree to the floor and hospital. I guess I better work all I can since I may be unemployed

Hope you all have a Tremendous Tuesday. Toodles JEANNE

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Oh my Jeanne. BELIEVE ME, I will be thinking of you and sending prayers and pixie dust that you DON"T strike. How horrible.

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Ok, so I have to be a bragging Grandma now. Stacey took the babies in for pictures today and they turned out soooo cute. I will try and scan a "tropical" picture for you to see.

 

[wildernessgirl]

Hi All From Disney! The weather hasn't been real bad. Monday, it rained until 5pm. Today it rained from 12pm to 2:30PM Then the sun came out! AND it was weather back to normal...HOT HOT HOT! The rest of the week should be the same, sunny and hot. The storm took a more northern route and we escaped most of it.

Jeanne, sorry to hear about the strike. Hopefully they can work it out. Don't they understand DISNEY is in the future! LOL!!!

Barb, my brother's friend's father use to sing Julie Julie Julie do you love me ALL THE TIME WHEN I WAS GROWING UP! I know that song VERY well! So disney in Sept? How about cruise in Oct????? We can sit and watch Jerry and the puppet LIKE CHICKEN!!!

Spoke to Denine today. they made it home about quarter to 1am this morning (tuesday). Said they all were soooooooooo tired and Jerry had to work from home today so she didn't get a chance to post.

Well, gonna go. I think we are going to the Studios tomorrow.

TTFN

 

[Pooh_Friend#1]

The babies pictures are adorable.

Julie - glad you are still having a great time.

Welcome Home Denine!!!

Barb - Wow, so many questions...there will be a total of 15 of us for our clan at All-Star movies, should be very interesting. The snacks can also be pretzels, fries, ice cream, chips, donuts, tons of other things. There is a thread about it on the Dining Plan forum on the Dis.

 

[Mickey02]

Good Morning

Well sent out the pictures for the graduation and the wedding but looks like no one got them. I am at a total loss on how to email them.

Heidi-maybe you can help me. I downloaded from my camera into "My Pictures" I set up a file for the pictures. On the left side I have the option to Email file, I chose that option and it brought up the email with all the icons in it. I put in the addresses and sent it. Everything looked like they sent.

 

[Denine]

We are home. We are still very tired. We had an awesome time with the Lauter clan! Julie found out that there was 250 acres of land on fire on Disney property. That explains all the smoke and ashes. I am sure the rains helped tremendously.

Jeanne: I sure hope you don't strike!

Happy birthday to the twins! Loved the pictures!

barb: Congrats on passing your test!

I have CPR on Friday after work and I hate it too.

Saturday we are going for our late night with friends playing cards and then Sunday is Father's Day and I am doing an indoor bbq (ribs in the crockpot). My parents are coming over.

Supposed to be 74 here today with sun.

Back to reality.
