[UtahMama]

Oh UM i feel for you on the sugar thing. I had a gastric bypass 5 years ago and if i have more than a bite of something sweet i feel as though i am dying!! The first time i had "dumping syndrome" i swear i was dying.

I thought only my two loverly sons had such great manners in fanch schmancy place

Dirty ???

A sugar-sister!

 

[UtahMama]

Look at it this way. At least nobody took their shoes off and started pickin' at their toe jam!!!

Or did they??

Thankfully NO. See? we're not THAT bad!

 

[UtahMama]

I feel all warm and fuzzy because I got my first post reply THANK YOU UtahMama


There are very few who know the answer to that!


The vintage appeal is what I love best


I know it's not always possible with kids in tow, but relaxing is the best part of vacation Besides, some that have had manners training obviously skipped the how-to-have-fun courses.

We have had many years of How To Have Fun courses. Family Fun 101 to be exact.
Unfortunatly, Mama's Bad Mood interfered with what could have been a nice meal. Should I stop beating myself up now?

 

[UtahMama]

finally caught up, took me all day, but I finally made it! Now I am off to work on my own little report! Nite all

Ducky!!!!! Thanks for reading! I'll come read yours when I'm done with tonight's chapter.

 

[UtahMama]

OMG!!!!! I am SOOO glad I decided to wait until AFTER I read this before I had my lunch!

There is spit all over my desk, monitor, and clothes now, missy!

Monique! I love that you came to read and spew! I will only print the nice stuff from now on , I promise!!! Love Ya ,girlfriend!

 

[UtahMama]

UM-I am loving your TR so far! I look forward to reading more!

THANK YOU, daisy!!!
You have FABULOUS taste!

 

[Michele]

Jus' so you know, still here reading. I (unlike some other's I won't mention LOL ) sit here patiently waiting (OK, more like checking the Disboards at least once an hour for a week) for each new installment. Still lovin' it by the way!!!

 

[UtahMama]

Is that all it takes to be a redneck?! Sign my family up! Are you sure you weren't taking notes of our last trip to Red Robin?

It takes a-LOT more to be truly "red"!

 

[UtahMama]

Heh. I left my Mickey Hat on buzz lightyear space ranger spin last month. I had to hang out with the two CMs at the exit for about 10 minutes to get it. They had to run, jump on the right car and grab it before they got pushed around to the ride entrance.
I'm just glad they did it for me. I would've fallen and been stuck between the ride and the car somewhere in the universe.
I wonder how many points you'd get to shoot me?

you crack me UP!

 

[UtahMama]

Oh, I can so vouch for this statement!!!! I am also from "The OC" (grew up in Cypress - West of Anaheim - childhood home of Tiger Woods) and the rest of MY dysfunctional family still lives there!!! Every once in a while I get teary eyed and long for my beaches and mountains and so on. Then I too remember how expensive it is AND that my nut-job sister (and I mean that in the NICEST, most LOVING way possible!!!) still lives there, and I'll take the Florida hurricanes anyday!!!!! Although... I would LOVE it if the annual 10 minutes of cold weather arrives sometime VERY soon!!!

Hee-Hee! I LOVE saying I'm from the O.C.!
Now I'm from the U.C. which CRACKS up the Utahns!

10 whole minutes? Jeepers, hats and mitten time!

 

[HomeSweetDisney]

UM, you ain't seen redneck till you've lived in southern lousiana for 3 1/2 years! I learned a thing or two there

Your family looks like the Vanderbilt's in comparison!

Niiiiiice update. I always get so stoked when I see you've updated. And if I happen to be in a crappy mood I know reading your TR will cheer me right up! Can't wait to read more from you!

 

[UtahMama]

Let's see...where to start? Great trippie!!! I just found it a few days ago, so I have had lots of catching up to do, but I am up to date now! I soooooooooo dig it!

The photo of Cindy and Norah is priceless!

I too read the photography boards here. Great pics your hubby took of POR! We stayed there last February and loved it.

I do have a confession to make. I am a Diet Coke lover. I know, blasphemy, right?

You have inspired me to consider a TR for our upcoming trip in November. (We will be there in 5 weeks!!!) I haven't decided for sure yet. We'll see.

And I can't wait to see more here! Keep up the great work! I am really enjoying hearing about your family's experiences. You are a funny lady. In other words, entertain me some more please!

OH, almost forgot - LOVE your sig!

Thank You for sooo much! Keep checking back!

I 'm so thankful for your patronige!!

Pop some popcorn and grab a diet COKE (Bleck!) and come back tonight!

 

[UtahMama]

Utah and I are hommies, did ya know that?

So my frickin (nof) dysfunctional family is following me... but the plan is to wait until they all move out of California, and then to go back.

Did you ever realize you were out past curfew because you heard the fireworks start? That is one of the clearest memories of my childhood. If we heard them we had to run home because we were already late. We lived up on one of the hills and could see the high fireworks sometimes.

Soarin' makes is homesick too. Disneyworld, and the MK more than the other parks, makes me homesick for Disneyland. I miss New Orleans Square. I miss the bakery being on the correct side of the street too.

As for your Redneck family, we so have you beat. Just wait. We have photos and everything. The Grandfloridian Tea meets the Clampets, part ?? of the Silly trip report. (Shemeless plug)

Compadre! I am a little bit homesick. Maybe I'll take a weekender to DisneyLand.

I can NOT wait for your TR with the Silly's being rednecks! THAT is gonna be GOOoood!

Definitely Now, on with the show

 

[UtahMama]

OK, U/M. This is just weird. Funny, but definitely weird. Sorry.

BDG

That would be very weird if it wasn't being said to the cutest lil'boy ever

 

[UtahMama]

Totally unrelated to your TR (which I love, by the way ), but as a new first-time mother, I currently have an obsession with strollers. What kind is your adorable DD in, and do you like it?

I PM'd you my huge stroller thesis. BUT! Thank you for reading!!!

 

[UtahMama]

First, I have to tell you that I've been loving following your WDW vacation adventure--all 80-so-far pages of it!! I almost died laughing, however, at your description of dinner with the fam at Le Cellier! This was an almost exact duplicate fo ANY dinner we had with my husband, myself, and my 3 step-kids when they were younger. (Luckily, now that they are 23, 20, and 17, most meals are relatively bread stick finger puppet free.) I have to admit, however, as angst-producing as some of those meals were, those are the ones that are remembered with great fondness and giggles now that they no longer happen. Someday it will be, "Do you remember the first time we ate at Le Cellier and Dallen put his breadsticks on his fingers and pretended they were puppets?" "I NEVER did that!!" ""Oh yes you did!!" Sometimes its hard to find the humor in the situation now, but it makes great ammunition later!

I see it now, the humor, I mean. I want to cherish every little tacky thing they do!


Thanks for reading all kazillion pages! It is kinda funny to re-read!

 

[UtahMama]

I am finally all caught up with your TR

You know I just can't be sick (stupid gall bladder who needs it any way). There's always so much to catch up on .... which is great BTW

It's good to see you again! Did you have your GB removed? Sounds painful!
Stick around! There's more fun to be had!

 

[UtahMama]

I get back after a week of no power here in Buffalo and there is only ONE update?!?

I had soooo much catching up to do with everyone else's posts! Seems we like posting more than you do UM!

Please post more! I can't wait for you to "air your dirty laundry"!!!

(And yes...I am here for the duration! Thanks for the great TR!!!)

Hey Cheeky girl!
I'm hurrying as fast as humanly possible. Faster than that even.

 

[UtahMama]

Okay, I am quoting me, quoting you again! I believe your last installment was October 18, 2006. Today is October 23. I think that is 5 days again. We miss you! You and Disunc are my to favorite reads right now but we need to work it out so that at least one of you is posting every couple of days! Then it wouldn't seem like such a lllooooonnnggg wait in between installments! Okay, I will check back tonight.

I'm quoting you quoting me quoting you.
SORRY! I'm going as fast as I can. You can not count on me to keep my word as to when I'll be posting time frame wise because I have 4 kids and aLOT of stuff on my plate right now. Thanks for your continued patience, though! I love when you reply! See, what a hypocrite I am??? When DISUNC doesn't post for a while I'm a mess!!!
