Has anyone been to those Japanese places where they cook the food right in front of you?? Like in JAPAN in EPCOT?? Well has anyone taken LITTLE kids there??? DH and I have a fave restaurant here in town that is one of these places and we've never taken the kids (well it's obvious why, you can tell Gabriel is a little menace). Recently we were thinking that maybe now it would all just captivate their attention and they would actually pay attention as to be frightened or anything like that??? Any opinions?? Thanks!

Yes, SARAH loves these places and she loves to eat with chopsticks. That being said, I think we have only brought Sean once. I would say, try it out on a not so busy night and see how it goes. At least around here, those places are CRAZY on weekend nights, but on other nights there is nobody there!

CDplayer=DVD player story: Sarah's princess DVD/VCR is kaput thanks to her brother... who knows what's in there!

Would this really be a birthday present to CAT???? She needs a night off once in awhile!!!!! Me on the other hand.... could use a birthday now and again to get a present! LOL LOL LOL

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

Steven's sister has a 3 yo DS and a 1 yo DD. Her DS is a terror! Like this Sunday, we all went out to eat and her kids were acting up, so she had to take them outside so they could run around! I feel kind of bad for them though, she hardly takes them anywhere. They are always cooped up in the house. Maybe that's why they have all this energy!

I actually agree with you. I think the kids who act up the most dont get out much - hence its like this huge RELEASE to them AND they never learn HOW to behave out in public.

Just my opinion....

 

[Patsfan7]

When my kids act up I bring them outside to kick their butt! J/K

Tia - ok I'm not sure if it's funny that they think you're a "non" pta'er...or if it's scary that no one has ever questioned MY mega involvement in the dang thing! Exactly what does that say about me????????

If only the other PTA Moms knew what a party girl you are! You live one of those double lives. &

Alright, The change is out, but there are still a couple pennies wedged in the actual dashboard...and it gets more fun, the vents of the passenger side also have about 5$ in quarters in there!!!! I kept wondering where all my toll change was going, but just assumed Sal raided it for the soda machine at work!! grrr.... CD player better work!!! I hate the radio....but then again maybe this would be a good time to mention sirius radio to Sal???

Hey there's an idea! Tell him you have enough to almost buy the system from all of the change you found in the dash and cd player!

YEAH - Im going to bed

NOT THAT!!! Im getting a cold - Im wiped! So sleepy!

Uh - huh likely story Miss Cat!!!

 

[CathrynRose]

But they made the yearbook.

My son's the little guy - far right.

Oh, and the R in the middle. That's Bryant. My BFF who is coming to POP in 22!!!!! days - thats her son. They live in Indiana...he doesnt even GO to North!!!!!

Im so proud.

We took DD with us at Teppanyaki. They just seated her away from the hot part. Remember my deadly mushroom story? I was more worried about her getting charged with attempted homicide for flinging a mushroom at the lady seated next to me.

haha thanks! The place we go to has enormous tables around the stove, so we are nowhere near the hot part. I'm just afraid of them being scared or something like that. We're not planning to go until next month for our anniversary, so we will play it by ear until then!

Hi gang,
Whats doing?? Something is driving me nuts!! I can't seem to get an Adr for Ltt at the MK, this is one of our most favorites places to eat. I'll keep trying and i'm sure something will turn up, i hope.

Am i the only one that hated that castle cake?? I think it looked horrible! I can't be the only one, That did not like it, can i??

 

[Tinkerbell_Girl]

Good Morning!

PJ- I kinda liked the castle cake!

 

[Patsfan7]

Am i the only one that hated that castle cake?? I think it looked horrible! I can't be the only one, That did not like it, can i??

I think that everyone except me hated it. I loved it. It may have been because I was in awe of all the work that went into it. BUT you know who I feel bad for are the people that were there during the building of it and the tearing down of it. I have never seen pictures, but there must be doozies out there of a half pink castle!

(That castle is the one that was there when I got engaged to the man of my dreams... maybe that's why I liked it?????) We went to a wedding at the Wedding Pavilion/reception GF, and they got all those night time pictures in front of the castle. I thought they were super nice. (the marriage I don't think lasted as long as it took to get the pics though.... so sad!)

Morning! more rain expected here today! Blahhh! we we are headed to the library to get some fun stuff and for story time later on in the day it's cute! They read a story, then do a craft coordinated to the story and then they have a little snack. I love watching them listen to the lady read! too fun!

Then i have to get over to the grocery store and get some more milk and some stuff for dinner tonite, I'm thinking I will make a meatloaf and some garlic mashed potatoes!

Hope you all have a great day!!!!!


CASTLE CAKE: 50/50 for me. I hated it at first, but throughout our vacation, it grew on me! In the end I thought it was a pretty creative idea!
