These are just hilarious!!

I'm glad you guys had a good time!!

 

[ArielSRL]

Love your shirt! And I love the machinations to get the most for your money, with the ticket and the AP and everything.

Keeps his lightsaber at the office. I love boys!

 

[ArielSRL]

i'll probably take the tink one though! i'm excited that they're here......

My AP is the Tink one!!! I guess I didn't think there were other characters too...DUH! Guess I got lucky.

 

[MAGICFOR2]

Your bonfire night looks like so much fun! Luke is lucky to have parents who are always finding ways to make life exciting - I know you will be too!
Thanks for sharing!

 

[winkers]

sounds like a fun time.

i have never had a s'mores.

You poor thing!! Have you at least had a roasted marshmallow?

 

[ArielSRL]

welcome back! hope your school year is a great one!

Thanks! It is going well. Though I am obviously having trouble getting to bed on time!

yeah, ray "borrowed" them. i didn't know until we got to the room that night because he didn't tell me.....just slipped them into the bookbag. i asked him what the heck he was gonna do with 3D glasses anyway???

i don't even know what time it comes on but they play it so often that i always seem to catch it at some point during the week!

The new ones are on at 9pm on Mondays.

go to www.disneyworld.com and click on "passholder". i think there's somewhere on there you can register and then you'll start getting the quarterly updates in the mail.

I swear I think i tried that...but I will check again.

you probably got off at exit 126 or 129 and i'm exit 137, so you were literally within 10 miles of me!

It was exit 129! Wow, I was so close! If I had known ahead of time, we could have set up a Dis Meet. Though I live only about 20 minutes from exit 129, so I guess it wouldn't be too hard to do it some other time...lol.

OMG Dawn, I love that shirt! Where did you get it and when? I want one!

Looked like a great night with friends! I love roasting marshmellows.

 

[MeMom]

sounds like a fun time.

i have never had a s'mores.

Scott, Scott, Scott....what are we going to do with you, friend? How did you get to be a grown-up without experiencing the joys of s'mores?!?!?

We've gotta have a big old Dis family bonfire someday and get this man a s'more!
The thrill of roasting the marshmallow to a perfect golden brown, the luciousness of the melting chocolate, the challenge of keeping the graham cracker from breaking when you do your smooshing together... one of life's great little pleasures.
Start that fire back up and open up another pack 'o mallows...quick!

Dawn - thanks for sharing your evening with friends. I know the kids had a great time and the adults did as well.

 

[2xcited2sleep]

first off.....an updated countdown!!!

You are getting really close now!!


The bonfire looks so fun. I love that you had your mickey shirt on! I'm going to have to keep an eye out for that in the stores in October! It's adorable!

after that john (evelyn and alex's dad) got out his light sabers for the kids to play with. ray has one too, but he keeps his at his office. don't ask me why!

Because you never know when you might have to defend your workplace/galaxy against the Sith?

 

[AussieAngel]

Aw, how fun! Hot dogs and smores! Mickey Mouse shirts! Flying axes! Seeing photos like that makes me wish I lived in America! Well, maybe not the flying axes.

Our campfires really only feature lots and lots of beer, and drunk men.

Speaking of which, DH bought me a Peanut Butter Cup tonight!! Yay! We have a "USA Food Store" here in Melbourne near where he works, and he sometimes treats me to some Reese's. Hehee.

 

[FauntleroyFAN07]

great updates, glad you were not hurt at the fire...


i think ray was just trying to collect on your AP if something happened to you.

 

[MA pigletfan]

WOW...
my cookouts aren't ever that exciting!
Super cute pics as always dawn...you guys are too fun!

 

[lmillercrew]

WHOA lumberjack Ray. Look out! Don't you have to have a license to swing that axe? (I think I spelled axe like the smelly stuff) k, um... ax. I never said I was the brightest tool in the shed. I love the light sabre show. It's almost like the water pageant at MK. Maybe next time you could play music and the kids could give you a show. What a great time. It's good to have good friends that you and Ray both like. Like sometimes I have a good friend, but my DH isn't "friends" with the husband. Glad to hear you didn't get hurt. That would've been horrible!
A little over two weeks to go for you

 

[Wonders10]

Dawn - I have to know where you got that shirt! It is so super cute!

 

[hlrababy]

Your getting so close on your calendar!!!

I love the pictures! I can't believe Ray almost hit you with the axe!!!

I love, love, love the picture of Anna eating the smore's!

 

[punkin413]

Because you never know when you might have to defend your workplace/galaxy against the Sith?

Kind of scary about the ax!

Other than your near death experience it looks like the bonfire was lots of fun!!!

we had fun......sans ax.

Looks like you had a great time last night! I love the picture of Anna with the smore! If I were her I'd kill you for posting that!

oh, anna totally doesn't care at all!!!! she takes pictures like that on purpose. you're lucky she didn't make me take a picture of her with stuff all in her teeth - that's what she usually does!

Thank Goodness you didn't get axed in the head!

I miss bonfires...we can't have those here in the desert!

Looks like you guys had a great time...thanks for sharing!

Now how about that P and P Party update?

i'm workin on it! i *may* get it up tonight. if not, tomorrow for sure.

sounds like a fun time.

i have never had a s'mores.

scott!!! you MUST try s'mores as soon as you can! the real thing is SO much better than the s'mores they have at '50's prime time cafe. they are so rich, so i can only eat one at a time. i have to have breaks in between servings!

Oh my....you didn't tell me about this part of the story and you thought you had a headache over the last few days

I'm so glad you guys didn't have an accident

yeah.......i forgot to mention that! maybe i was trying to erase it from my memory.

Love your shirt! And I love the machinations to get the most for your money, with the ticket and the AP and everything.

Keeps his lightsaber at the office. I love boys!

yeah, the light saber thing makes so much sense, right???

My AP is the Tink one!!! I guess I didn't think there were other characters too...DUH! Guess I got lucky.

yes, you did! my AP is the incredibles.

Your bonfire night looks like so much fun! Luke is lucky to have parents who are always finding ways to make life exciting - I know you will be too!
Thanks for sharing!

anna is ALWAYS doing fun stuff with him. i think it's cool but i told her if i kept her pace i'd be a very grumpy person! i like having my time at home....just quiet time. but that's just how they are! i plan on doing a good bit of activities, though. that kinda thing is a long way off!

OMG Dawn, I love that shirt! Where did you get it and when? I want one!

Looked like a great night with friends! I love roasting marshmellows.

believe it or not, walmart! my sister called me right before her trip and told me that walmart had some really cute disney shirts, so i went up there the next day and got that one. that was in early july....not sure if they're still there or not. if you can't find them you might try the clearance rack.

Scott, Scott, Scott....what are we going to do with you, friend? How did you get to be a grown-up without experiencing the joys of s'mores?!?!?

We've gotta have a big old Dis family bonfire someday and get this man a s'more!

Dawn - thanks for sharing your evening with friends. I know the kids had a great time and the adults did as well.

i know! i told him he really needs to try these! and the s'mores at '50's prime time cafe don't count - they're not as messy and not "real"!

You are getting really close now!!

The bonfire looks so fun. I love that you had your mickey shirt on! I'm going to have to keep an eye out for that in the stores in October! It's adorable!

i actually got that shirt at walmart, believe it or not!

oh, i don't know........beer and drunk men sound like fun too! cool that you got a reese's. funny the little things we take for granted here!

great updates, glad you were not hurt at the fire...


i think ray was just trying to collect on your AP if something happened to you.

you may be right! maybe i need to take him off my life insurance policy???

WOW...
my cookouts aren't ever that exciting!
Super cute pics as always dawn...you guys are too fun!

thanks! i'm sure your cookouts are fun too!

A little over two weeks to go for you

yes, we are very lucky when it comes to anna and chris. we both enjoy spending time with them! we've actually known anna since like '99 when we all worked at chili's. we had kind of lost touch with her and then when we were building our house in 2004 i got invited to her baby shower (when she was pregnant with luke). i was following the directions to her house and as i got closer i realized that her house was in the same neighborhood we were building in! ever since we moved here she and i have gotten SO close. it's really nice to have such a good friend so nearby....and it's great that both our hubbies have fun together!

Dawn - I have to know where you got that shirt! It is so super cute!

walmart! yep, wally world - it's true! i got it in early july so maybe you can still find one!

Your getting so close on your calendar!!!

I love the pictures! I can't believe Ray almost hit you with the axe!!!

I love, love, love the picture of Anna eating the smore's!

anna's such a goofball! she totally did that on purpose. i have some BE-AUTIFUL pictures of her with food in her teeth, too!

 

[DisCanCan]

I love you Mickey Peace Shirt! It is soooooooooo cute!!

P.S. And ofcoarse your tip report as always.

 

[Beana9802]

thanks! oh, i love steel magnolias. there's no telling how many times i've seen it. ray loves it too. he doesn't admit it but he does. he loves the scene where drum answers the door and it's ouiser with her dog and he goes, "ouiser, you look like hammered sh*t." and she goes, "drum eatenton, don't you speak to me that way" (or something like that) and he goes, "okay, you look like regular sh*t."

looks like anna enjoys her sweets!

It's just a gesture...we're not feeding Drum 'til the end of TIIME! (I could go on forever)
Anna...I totally am not laughing at you, I am laughing with you!
