Our Trick AND Treat- DD's Surprise Bday Trip! 11/4 Get Movin'

[jenb1023]

2 1/2 years??? Oh no! You are handling that WAY better than I would have. I need this camera to last more than another year!!! I'm house-hunting right now. I think Randy will divorce me if I tell him I need a new camera.

Well, my camera takes a lot of abuse and it still works I am just a photo snob and get irritated when I get out of focus photos. I ordered the XSi from Amazon and it will be here tomorrow. I only needed the body since I have a bunch of lenses so it was $575. I didn't want to spend the money but I refuse to go on our NYC trip at the end of the week and have some of my photos not turn out.

You just need to move to Central PA - houses are cheap here!

Is Aisling getting excited about NYC? Jordan is so excited - it is her first trip to NYC and she has wanted to go there since she saw Enchanted. We are taking the train in Friday morning and going to AG to buy her first doll and have dinner there. Saturday is Little Mermaid. Then, of course World of Disney somewhere in there and whatever else. Then we take the train home Sunday afternoon.

Oooh you must be getting so excited. Aisling isn't too excited yet because we still have another week and a half. Plus she still doesn't know that we are seeing Little Mermaid. She thinks we are just going to stay in a fancy hotel. I wish that we were going for two nights now. By the time we get there on Wed, we don't have a ton of time before the show after we check into the hotel, change, have dinner. We plan to go to AG Place on Thursday morning at opening. I would love to do the photo studio shoot. Now I have to pick out outfits for Aisling AND her doll!!! She is planning for bring Chrissa so far (the 2009 GOTY doll). She also has Kit and an Asian Just Like Me doll that she tells everyone she adopted from Korea! Miss Claudia has gotten to go to lots of places (including AG Place Boston a couple of times) and Kit got to go see Grinch the Musical so Chrissa gets to go to NY!!!

Don't forget to give me a review of the XSi!!!

Aisling had dance pics on Saturday. I took some photos while I was hanging around the studio. So here is another series of pictures that have nothing to do with Disney

Those are really cute! I wish I had more pictures of me when I was little doing different things. I know Aisling and Dallas won't have that issue.

Our parents didn't have digital cameras...they had to PAY for the crap pics!!!!

I think about this all the time and I bet I would save a ton of money if we didn't have a digital camera! Now I take 5 or 6 of the same darn thing and take them just to take them but then I think I must print them out!

Love the dance photos! She is too cute!

Oh see...I never print them out. I put them online for people to see and never print them until I'm ready to scrap them. Which means that I don't have any actual prints from the last 2 1/2 years!!!

 

[jessica52877]

YIKES! I am in need of printing some out right now. I only do it about 3-4 times a year but won't erase anything off of a card until I print them! That would be why I have about 7 cards sitting here and no room on any of them!

I put mine on Kodak Gallery and I save them on a flash drive. Plus most of them are on Photobucket too!!! I figure I have them saved enough!

So Aisling knows that we are going to NY but doesn't know that we are going to see Little Mermaid. This morning she says to me. OH NO, MOMMY. Do you know what we forgot? BROADWAY is in NY! We should take Daddy to a show for his birthday!!! All I could say was: That sounds like a good idea

Oh, that is just so cute. Thinking of her Daddy on his Birthday.

 

[Diamondintheruff]

So sweet of her. Of course Daddy would want to go to broadway for his birthday. Not a football game or anything silly like that.

How great is it that your DD even knows what Broadway is?

Great colour for your dance outfit.

Actually my football coaching husband has a secret love of Broadway shows!!! I thought he was just humoring me when we were dating but he actually loves them. He WANTED to see Little Mermaid (probably for Ariel's assets but whatever!!!)

Aisling knows what Broadway is because we always tell her that she belongs there. Also her dance teacher is trying to get her into acting.

Glad you like the Vegas showgirl costumes. They are tapping to "I Want Candy" and holding fake bright pink cotton candy. Going to be interesting

Kristine I made it back over to your PTR! Love all the pixs. Will remember now since updates will pop up in my user CP!

My XSi should be here today so I will let you know what I think.

I take tons of digital photos and download them onto my laptop. Then I sort through them and delete the duplicates or bad photos and upload the rest to get printed at Costco. Now getting around to scrapbooking them is a whole other story!

My DH actually likes musicals too but I don't think he is too excited about the Little Mermaid. Though Ariel's "Purple Bras" as Jordan calls them might sway his opinion. I love that Aisling wants to take Daddy to a show for his birthday!

Two more days for you right?!?! Getting excited?

 

[Tnkrbelle565]

I forgot to mention my other big news (which will only be truly understood by a select few)...my inlaws bought a new house. In 3 short weeks they will no longer be my next-door neighbors

I would make this my Facebook status but since my MIL friended me on FB, I no longer have that as an outlet for inlaw discussions So I'm sharing it here!!!!

Now I have to figure out how many times I HAVE to bring Aisling over a week to visit?????

WOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I am so excited for you!

A week? Really? How about how many times a month?

We are leaving tomorrow! Jordan is so excited she is telling everyone she sees that she is going to NYC tomorrow! Guess I won't be calling her off sick from school then.

Well, by the dancing bananas I am guessing this is very good news. So, congrats! I friended someone on FB before I knew how exactly it worked so now I can't complain about some of the issues she causes on my wall. Although my parents don't live next door, they watch Jordan every day M-F for me since she was 5 weeks old. Next year, she will be in school all day so they won't need to watch her at all. I know they will want to see her at least once a week and probably more. I am thinking I now have free evening babysitters - woo-hoo! Good luck figuring out your visiting schedule!
