One became SEVEN?!? How did THAT happen? 4/24 UPDATE

[babynala]

Just wanted to stop by and say hello. I know your family is getting ready to head to Florida with Tracy soon. I hope you guys have an amazing trip. It will be nice to get away with your family and spend time with Tracy.

I am actually going to be heading to WDW on Sunday with my sister's family for their first family trip to the World. I wasn't 100% sure it was going to happen and I will be on their schedule but I will be sure to say hi if I spot you guys in the park.

ENJOY YOUR TRIP.

Listening to Rachel as I type -- AMAZING!

Beignets are available all day. No tours at POFQ. Carriage ride available at POR in the evening that will go through POFQ if you ask. About $45.00 with advance reservation on a credit card required. We enjoyed it. There's a singer in the bar area in the evening, haven't heard him. Plus YeeHaw Bob at POR as someone else mentioned. Outdoor movie in the evening. And campfire someone else mentioned.

Have a wonderful trip! I don't get onto the boards often any more but had to come here and send my best wishes for a great time for your family.

Just watched the girls videos and they both were amazing. Lisa was so cute with her ukulele. Can't believe she only got it for Christmas. Rachel was just spectacular! That seemed like a very difficult piece and she played it so well and didn't let the sound problem bother her. Good to hear you're getting a wheelchair Judy. It's so much better for you to feel good and not be struggling with a bad foot so you can really enjoy Disney. Hope it's getting warmer for you. Our temp finally got above 0 and it's supposed to be warm now, maybe hit 32 today. I just wanted to wish you a warm, wonderful trip. I know you will have a great time with Tracy!

I just watched Rachel's video. Your children continually amaze me with their talent. I know you are so proud of them. Awesome news about your Fairy Godmother. I am very excited to read about your trip.

Beignets, all day. There's the boat to dtd. They have a camp fire and roast marshmellos. We were staying at csr and they let us do the campfire there. Yeehaw Bob performs certain nights at POR. His show is fabulous. He is a master of getting the audience engaged. In fact, he teaches classes on the side how to do that, (not at his show at por).

Thanks Michelle, sorry I missed your call. Beignets all day...yum! I knew about the movies/campfires...when I was telling the children earlier Lisa was Like "I know about that"! Yes, they are all Disney Lovers! Yeehaw Bob looks fun (I looked at Jill's link), thanks for the tips. NOW what can you tell me about the Boardwalk???

Judy,

I haven't been able to follow along much but knew your trip was getting close. Wishing you a magical trip. Hope all are doing well.

Debbie

Debbie, it is so good to see you. Thanks for signing in.

So I finally remember how to multi quote and it only took until you get ready to leave! Now that is some great pixie dust!! I can't believe it is time for your trip!!


Oh my goodness. Definately sending up prayers for Catherine. So glad to hear she is back to school and feels good.



I can't believe you are all getting ready to have your amazing trip so soon! Although it probably feels like a long time waiting. So glad to hear that Emile is doing really well.

HAVE a GREAT TRIP!!!!

I can't believe we are leaving either, I really need another week! I think I am the only person in the world she ever wishes they had a little more time before the trip.

How are plans coming for your trip???

Judy, I have been waiting all day for you to post Lisa's video. I hope you do soon, you leave in 2 days.

Praying for Tiffy and everyone else.

Sorry for not posting it yet, I will right now!!


GAIL, praying you get some rest and Tiffy is sleeping, YOu have a busy day tomorrow, stay safe.

 

[blessedmom4]

OKay, I am posting this and I really hope you will show Lisa some love, this video shows what a polished and accomplished little performer she is...as I said, I couldn't do this at my age, much less when I was 10.

I'll Fly Away.​

 

[blessedmom4]

We ere just there. Beignets are available all day. They are good but messy. There really isn't anything to do. At Por they have boats to rent and fishing and a Carriage ride but I am not sure if you have to be a Guest.

Wow 2 days.....have a great time

Yes, that powdered sugar gets on everything! I figure this might be the closest we get to Louisiana for awhile...David and rachel love to fish, it is something we will miss at GKTW...maybe we will look into that, Thank you for the idea. I think the Carriage ride would be too much for us, we would need 2 carriages...maybe another time! I love all of the tips/suggestions.

Go see Yee Haw Bob over at POR! He is a really funny and entertaining piano player and he puts on a great family show! And best of all its free!

Jill in CO

JIll, Thanks for the link, that looks like a ton of fun! I will make Tracy march around with the kids.

LIZ!!!! That is amazing news!! I am so happy for you. Your sister is blessed to have you along. I TRULY hope I get the chance to meet you again in better circumstances so you might have the chance to see the real me. THANK YOU for letting me know, it means a lot. If you need a place to get away, we have a private pool...which will probably freeze me.

I hope you have an extraordinary time! Safe Travels!!

I love all of the things you mentioned, I think we could find some fun and inexpensive (free) things to do. As long as food is involved, my guys will be happy!

I TRULY appreciate your coming by to wish us well and give us a sendoff!

Thanks for watching them Robin. Lisa has been picking out songs and making them up, she loves that Ukulele. The girls have a long list of instruments they would like to have and a Uke is one of the most economical, especially when paired with an Amazon gift card! Rachel has a natural ability that gets better every single day. I am excited about her show tomorrow night.

I am glad we made the decision for a W?C. They aren't even charging me for the first day!

ZERO! YIKES!!! 6 was cold enough for me. It has warmed up for us and it is now pouring down rain. Strange weather.

Thank you for your good wishes! I feel so blessed to be taking this trip, even if I need more time! I appreciate your coming by.

I just watched Rachel's video. Your children continually amaze me with their talent. I know you are so proud of them. Awesome news about your Fairy Godmother. I am very excited to read about your trip.

You are so sweet! I am incredibly blessed that they found talents that they enjoy and can excel at. I am proud of them and thankful for their love and kindness. I know we will have many fun memories to share when we return! I just hope I can survive the week, the kids had us laughing so hard last time, I can only imagine how badly my sides will hurt after a week!

Awesome Job Lisa!!!! So proud of both your girls!!!


Baby Update: I went to the Dr. today and the baby's heartbeat is good and strong. I'm measuring right where I should be and the baby is staying put for now. I've also officially gained 0 lbs!!!!! I actually think I've lost a pound from where I started but I'll take what I can get!! I still can't believe I've been disciplined enough to stay on the right eating path.

Can't believe you guys are leaving in a couple days!! Have a great time!!! Enjoy the time together and just let everything else go (well what you can let go anyways.)

 

[McDuck]

Just wanted to wish you all a magical trip!!!!!!!

 

[blessedmom4]

TRACY!!!! SAFE TRAVELS as you leave today!!!! You will be in the US and at DISNEY TONIGHT, I can't believe it!!! I just had another idea, emailing again (my fingers are tired)!

I love you Sandra, Thank you! I will show the girls what you wrote.

Praise God for great baby news!! That is awesome! I am incredibly proud of you, I KNEW you could do it and you have!!

Tracy leaves today, we leave tomorrow..how unbelievable is that?!?!?! Thank you for the words of wisdom.

Just wanted to wish you all a magical trip!!!!!!!

Thank you Jennie, we are excited! Or will be once we are on the road and I can go over in my head all the things I forgot to do.

Are you able to give us any update on Bill?

 

[p00h4me]

Judy, just listened to Lisa's performance again, uninterrupted, and she did a fantastic job especially for her first solo performance at the open mic. So proud of her. Billy loved it too! He said it sounded sweet and haunting. She reminded him of a Appalachian girl that just came out of the mountains.

We all went to bed early last night with Tiffy sleeping next to me. I woke up just a little after 11pm when I though I heard something. I found Tiffy off her pillow and sitting on the cold floor. I carried her outside to do her business and Boomer followed us. She finished and I carried her back to her bed. So I got a little more than 8 hours of sleep.

Have a great time at Rachel's performance today and get lots of rest for your long drive tomorrow. Praying you'll have a safe journey and have lots of fun during your week with Tracy.

Tracy, have safe travels as you go to Orlando and have fun at Animal Kingdom tomorrow!

Sandra, great news about the baby during your checkup and good going on eating right! After the little guy joins your family outside the womb, you'll probably have lost more than one pound! So when is the actual due date again? Keeping you in prayer.

 

[gopherdame]

Judy, I don't have a lot of info about the boardwalk but thought I'd add what we did last time. We went through the International Gateway and walked to the right. When we got to the Beach Club the kids took off their shoes and waded in the lake. You can't swim there but they had fun wading and chasing the birds right at me (accidentally). Then we walked over to the Yacht Club and just walked in the lobby. We didn't spend a lot of time there, we just wanted to find out where Beaches and Cream was. Thought I'd mention it with Lisa's fondness for ice cream. After that we continued our walk around and just took pictures and enjoyed the day. I think we did go in one shop. It is kind of a walk, but you can also take the boat that's right at the Gateway and get over to the area and then walk around. We didn't really check out the resorts but that's kind of fun to do if you'd like to. We always say we are going to check them out, but then we end up skipping it. But we did want to see the boardwalk and we finally did.

 

[redomni]

I just got caught up, me and my husband have both had bronchitis all week, so there has been lots of time in bed resting and not to much on the internet.

Tracy, I hope that your nephew is continuing to do well at home and that you have a safe trip to Florida.

Judy, glad you decided to rent a wheelchair so that you can enjoy the trip. hope that ya'll have a safe drive down there. So happy that you get to visit Disney thanks to your fairy godmother.

I hope that all of you have a fun relaxing trip.

Thoughts and prayers to all that need them.

Marilyn

Hi everybody.

I need to ask you all to pray for my mom. She is in the ER. They had to perform CPR. I will keep you all informed. Thanks.

 

[courtneybelle]

Thanks!

I hope my bags make it. I checked in online and got gate # and it is a domestic gate - weird. But i drop my bag at main westjet domestic check in. They scan my bag and didnt say anything.Then I try to go through security and they send me down to the US 'terminal' ( not really its in the same building.)

So now I am sitting in US departures lounge staring through the glass wall at my gate on the domestic side.

Guess they are boarding us here but using the bridge on the other side.
