Oh good, I'm anxious to see what one you get him. I think he will like that. You always want to get them things that interest them at that age. That is the only way they figure out what the really like.
My problem with Doc's is the waiting. My PCP never keeps me more than 5 min in the waiting room. I was his first patient back in 72 when he moved to town. His secretary was my best friend. He was a divorced man with 5 kids. About 10 years ago he married his secretary. She had never married before. I care for both of them.
That is the kind of doctor you like to go to. You get in and get out and since you know him it is easier to trust what he says. That is a sweet story about your friend and the doctor. I don't think I could be married to a doctor though, I have seen too much

Good choice on the car. More room is better for a long trip.
I'm so glad Dale is doing better. I hope he finds the nasal mask less confining than the over the nose one. And you have the freedom to roll over. That is what I missed the most. Everytime I moved I had to wake up enough to re-adjust. I rarely wake up anymore at night. I will admit when we go away for a couple of days I don't take it. My friend does but I get buy a night or two just fine. Always glad to get back to it tho.
I think you made a good choice on the camera. No reason to spend lots till you know if he even likes it. I would have to buy. My cake baking skills lack. Cookies ok but cakes not so much.

Yeah, I think the bigger car would be much better. I even thought about renting one, but I don't want to waste the money when we have perfectly good cars at home. The one thing I like about renting is it saves wear and tear on our cars.
Dale has been sleeping in the recliner. He said it just seems like he is smothering when he lays down and has the c-pap on. I am just glad he is doing better with it. We will work our way back to the bed and laying down with it on eventually

I think Dallas is going to be so surprised with it he won't care what kind it is

. I can bake cakes and cookies, but I am just not the best at decorating them.
Good choice on the car and congrats to Dale!
For the camera bundle make sure it comes with a memory card. I've seen some that dont come with it and then when you take it home it won't hold any photos b/c it's a very required piece of the camera...hahahahaha!
Walmart has some nice bundles and prices. I've been looking there too. B&H Photo also has some really good prices and bundles. That's where I get most of my camera equipment and they're a reputable company that's based in NYC.

Defintiely check there too!
Thanks girl, I am cautiously optimistic about our success

. I know at any time he could go the other way and say he isn't going to wear it anymore.
I think the Expedition has won the contest

.
You are right, I have been checking to see if they come with the SD card, the first digital camera I had was really cool, but it came with a mini SD and I just didn't like that. I would have to use the usb cable to upload pictures and that was just a hassle. I will have to check out B&H, thanks for the tip.
Hi Dana! I'm soooo happy to hear that Dale is cooperating. I hope he keeps it up. Can't wait to see Dallas' birthday cake! You know I love to look at cakes. My first digital was a Kodak and I was very pleased. I hope Dallas has a great b-day!
I have a sweet 16 cake to do this week. The girl wants:
Top layer: Solid Yellow with purple vertical pin stripes;
Middle Layer: Solid Electric Blue with with a checkered design which would be Lime Green;
Bottom Layer: Solid Pink with Orange polka dots.
This one is going to be wild.
I hope you're having a great weekend!!!
Can you say stubborn, mule, hard head?

. Dale has just about put me over the edge

. My cake will NOT look anything like what you do

. Maybe when I first turn them out of the pan, but that would be as far as it goes. I love your cakes, they are all so pretty. One of these days I am going to be that photographer and cake decorator I have always wanted to be. I would seriously love to do that.
I want to see pix of that cake. I know it will have to take all day to do that. I like the pink and orange polka dots idea though. Take lots of pictures.
