Sept 4-8 2005 Wonder S.S. Member Cruise! Part 3

Ohiominnie - ahhh, the curiosity of the cat! I'd say your kitten has an appreciation for the "mouse"!

Well, I'm hoping he helps rid the house of the mice that moved in when we were on vacation. I have poison and traps out and I haven't caught anything, but I also haven't seen more evidence of them being here. AND the outside kitties have graced me with several gifts on the porch....so maybe just being home flushed them from the house.

The joys of living in the country....

JoJo is a very cute costume! Thanks for everyones response. This year I will have a Little Mermaid and a Harry Potter in our house. Morgan is really into Harry Potter! No more cute Disney costumes for her....

We put off reading HP for a long time. Now we've been reading non-stop. I'm reading them outloud to the kids. Yesterday I read for close to 6 hours in order to finish the Prisoner of Azkaban so we could watch the movie. (book was better)

We put off reading HP for a long time.

Btw, I was one of those moms who refused to let my kids read/hear any HP stuff b/c of the witchcraft and sorcery. Now that they are older and know that's NOT the way to go, we're cool reading them.

Although, I MUST say, these books are SOOOO well written. The kids hang on every word. Once I tried to stop right in the middle of a chapter (I think during a Quidditch match) and there was nearly a mutiny!!

Jenny, she is an adorable JoJo!

Emma's hat doesn't even come close to going on, I can't even wedge it on her head. I know she's a big kid, but her head is WAY too big for this hat!

Good luck with that hat! I think they should have made the hat a little bigger. Allie can still fit into the costume but now the hat doesn't even come close to fitting onto her head!

The books are really good! We are looking forward to November when the next movie is released.

Gail - I will have to send you pictures when it comes time to set up my Christmas stuff unless you and John are in for another ride down to see it in person! You think I had "stuff" on display when you came by for your Cruise goodies???

Sure we'll take the ride - it was only about 40-45 minutes. We'd love to see your Christmas decorations. We leave on Friday Dec 16 for our cruise and WDW stay. Will you be decorated before then? Since we will be leaving the week before Christmas, I'm only putting up one tree this year.

Oh, I forgot to tell you. On Thursday when you got back to Port Canaveral and you called my home phone (thinking you were calling my cell phone)and left me a message - my daughter left it on the machine for us to hear when we got back. She said "I left this message on the answering machine, because some strange lady was looking for you in a parking lot - didn't she know you and dad were on vacation?"

Amy I am going to try to get the photos downloaded tonight and mailed out. I will be out of town this weekend as my Grandfather passed away today and I honestly had forgotten about our deadline. My apologies... they will be there soon!

Don't stress!! The deadline of 10/1, is just to let us know that you want to be involved. The actual deadline to get the pics to us is 10/15. So, if you can't get it done before you leave, you've got nothing to worry about.

So sorry about your loss!!!

Oh, whew! I *thought* it was the 15th!! Then I panicked. Is everyone leaving in all of their pictures? I'm afraid ya'll will be bored to death with all of our family shots.

We took out all the pictures from the road, but left in all the cruise ones and our WDW ones as well.

I took out some of our family shots, but I left some in. I figure that I would LOVE to see pictures of other families, because I want to add them to my scrapbook. So, pick out some of your favorite family shots and put them on the CD.

We left in some of our WDW trip, but took out all the blurry ones and the ones we had multiple shots of.

Sometimes the family shots can be the best ones to see. I like the points of interest pictures, but I like to see pictures of people in them too!

I did take one out of me and Cindy at CC. She's sitting on the end of a lounge chair with a konk kooler in hand and I'm in the next lounge chair with my bright construction worker orange bathing suit! Nope that one is not going to be with the rest!!!!
