Snow to 80 in 8 days–A spoonful of Holiday Cheer (2/5 update Ch 36 - Final Thoughts)

[marvali]

I didn't know they did the Celebrate the Season show in the daylight. I've only ever seen it late at night during MVMCP. Was it snowing on Main Street, too?

Love the Christmas ornaments!

The show was scheduled numerous times throughout the day. It snowed on Main Street our first night, but not that day.

Did you pull a Donald Duck?!?!?!

Very nice Pat! And NO, I spared the rest of the crowd!!!

Oh, Pat, that was a really good one.

Yep, Pat sneaks in a good one every now and then!!!

Oh dear, I hope not! No offense Marv...

Now WHY would I take any offense to THAT???

In other words, you chickened out.
No, actually it was more a case of being all greasy with the chicken and ribs before I thought of it.

I thought that the chocolate cake, premade in a container, at DHS was surprisingly good. After my school bread letdown, maybe it's all about expectations!
You might be on to something there. It wasn't that bad for what it was, and certainly none of it went to waste.

Aw, good job Marv. I'm glad Allison caught up with you guys.

Thanks!

OH BOY.... Marv dug himself a hole on that one Maybe in more ways than one

Hmm.....yeah, I guess I didn't think that one through completely.

Yeah, that was definitely a good one!

but did you notice that he always puts a towel around him when he gets out of the bath, but leaves it open for the viewing when he is wearing just his shirt.

Dan, when I caught you peeking you promised you wouldn't tell that!

 

[marvali]

Hi Marv!
Great update. The castle show looks so cute & so do all of the Christmas decorations.
I love your ornaments that your bought.
Your last picture with the boys jumping is my favorite. I can't wait to see your jumping picture!

Thanks, and yes that is definitely one of my favorites from the trip!

Marv jumps? I hope he is wearing more than just his "Donald Duck" look when he does.

Oh quit getting yourself all excited.....your blood pressure will get too high!

Here all week. I couldn't let that go.

Yeah, yeah, yeah!!!

Marv's away we GALS can play!!!

Oh, like THAT'S a prerequisite......

It would be a good way to clear the Christmas crowds away!

Hmmm, have to remember that one for possible future use.....

That is one of the funniest things I think I have ever read on the boards.

Okay, okay! You obviously don't read much on the DISboards.......

And we are glad you are here!!!!!

Payback is sooooooooooooooo sweet.

You have a very good point.

I thought so too when I read it.

Oh go fry an egg!!!

Translated he has to think of come backs and needs a good nights rest to be on top of the game !!!

You trying to spoon up some trouble around here???

sooooo I see you causing trouble elsewhere......

I think it means at least two nights rest!

He's causing trouble everywhere!

Just thinking of my friends at the sacrifice of my own TR......

Woodn;t be our Marv any other way

What activity did Marv and Ali do when we returned to Kidani for the afternoon? And keep it clean! (I started to mention names, but THAT list WOOD be wayyyyy too long!)

What method of transportation did we use to arrive at WCC?

Did anyone participate in the horse race around the dining room?

Who asked for ketchup at our table during dinner?

Who ended up having to stand up in front of everyone and sing "I'm a little teapot?" (Bonus points if you can guess what the reward was)

After dinner, where did we want to go for the evening? (which park)

What was the main thing we wanted to do when we got there?

I think Ali was still feeling a little punky, so I am guessing you sat on your balcony and relaxed for a bit, then decided that you both needed a little rest, so you laid down. (And didn't do any of that.)

What method of transportation did we use to arrive at WCC?

Let' see... What are they? Bus to TTC, then bus. Or Bus to MK, then Boat or bus. So really, I could choose from those. Hmmm.... The historical weather data says it was 46 as the low, and 72 during the day. Let's say around 5-6:00 it was something like 55? I"m thinking that's too cold for a boat ride.
So, I"m going to say bus from the TTC.

Hmmm... now that I think of it, you might have overslept a bit, and were running late. WHich might have neccessitated a cab. Nah.... I stick with bus in the end.

Did anyone participate in the horse race around the dining room?

Yes, Drew and Jon. Drew wouldn't do it alone, and insisted on company. Jon's a nice guy, so he obliged.

Who asked for ketchup at our table during dinner?

YOU!

Who ended up having to stand up in front of everyone and sing "I'm a little teapot?" (Bonus points if you can guess what the reward was)

Ali. But I'm not sure why. Do they do that at the WCC? I thought it was only a Prime Time gig. She got a cupcake.

After dinner, where did we want to go for the evening? (which park)

The MK had EMH that night. You HAD to have gone back there.

What was the main thing we wanted to do when we got there?

I think you mentioned you wanted to catch the NYE pre-show fireworks, and see the Christmas decorations and magic at night!

Here's my answers though after my last pitiful round (0 out of 10) I'm not feeling overly confident Marvie!

Well, this is a family board after all so I'm going to say that you and Ali spent some time observing the animals from your balcony and then took a nap. Only a nap.

I say you took a bus to the MK and then took the boat over to WL.

Drew participated in the horse race. You considered joining him but realized that those horses aren't THAT big.

You did!

I say you had to sing and your reward was a big round of applause. Or a slice of pie.

I say you went back to the MK for Wishes. Because hey, can you ever really see it too many times? Of course not silly!

I think you're main objective at the MK (other than Wishes) was riding the People Mover and seeing more Christmas decorations.

And to boost any potential scores....how are you today sweetums? Are you doing well sugar dumpling?

Molly, I think you did really good. I think that is worth a couple of bonus points at least.

Animal watching and a rest. No hanky panky

What method of transportation did we use to arrive at WCC?

You drove silly - because using the bus system to get there would have taken you hours.

Did anyone participate in the horse race around the dining room?

Now that you say did any one.... I will say no.

Who asked for ketchup at our table during dinner?

I am going to say you since no one else would do it.

Who ended up having to stand up in front of everyone and sing "I'm a little teapot?" (Bonus points if you can guess what the reward was)

Matt- because he didn't finish his large soda and he had to get out of jail.

After dinner, where did we want to go for the evening? (which park)

DHS

What was the main thing we wanted to do when we got there?

The Osborne lights because I don't see that you have done them yet?

Activity eh? Okay okay keeping it clean. You two took it easy by the pool

Boat

Not this time. Especially Marv because he has a reputation to uphold.

Who asked for ketchup at our table during dinner?

Drew

Watched animals and napped.

What method of transportation did we use to arrive at WCC?

Boat, which is what I did, so I'm guessing you did the same. You took a bus to MK, then boat to WL.

Did anyone participate in the horse race around the dining room?

No. You tried to get Drew to do it, but he said he was too old for that.

Who asked for ketchup at our table during dinner?

Drew

Who ended up having to stand up in front of everyone and sing "I'm a little teapot?" (Bonus points if you can guess what the reward was)

Marv had to do that. I'll guess that the reward was a dessert, like maybe a cupcake.

I'm going to guess DHS.

What was the main thing we wanted to do when we got there?

You wanted to see the Osborne Lights.

Animal watching.

Car, so you could make a quick trip to DHS after dinner.

Yes. The horses at WCC very seldom race without riders.

You did, Marv.

Who ended up having to stand up in front of everyone and sing "I'm a little teapot?" (Bonus points if you can guess what the reward was)

All the men. The reward was not having to participate in the horse race.

Hmm everyone is putting answers in white. Did I miss the memo?

I think it's to discourage cheating! But I think the only one who'd be tempted to cheat is the owner of this TR anyway...

You didn't miss anything Jen. People are submitting their answers in all kinds of ways, but I didn't specify. I even got one answer in a PM.

After reading most of the answers so far, WHY would I possibly want to cheat??? I know all the RIGHT answers.

I sent you an email telling you I was going to do that. Oh that's right, you didn't email me back.

You! For a reward you received a standin ovation and a cup full of tips after the waiters and other guests declared it the finest rendition of "teapot" they had ever heard! Or maybe it was just a free dessert

After dinner, where did we want to go for the evening? (which park)

Magic kingdom since it was just across the lake

What was the main thing we wanted to do when we got there?

Watch the parade and fireworks and enjoy everything all lit up

I sent you an email telling you I was going to do that. Oh that's right, you didn't email me back.

So sorry my Love! You must have sent the email to my work account. I finally finished my procedure reviews and got the last one signed Thursday, so I didn't have to go in to work yesterday. (which explains all the responses and posts I was able to make yesterday morning......from home!)

Was supposed to start the 12 hour shifts this coming Monday to support testing, but things are a little behind schedule so we aren't supposed to actually start that schedule until Thursday now. Since I was supposed to be off then and back in next Sunday, I am going to actually work a normal work week this coming Monday-Thursday, so hopefully I can get plenty of updates done in spite of a week full of Drew's soccer games (every night except next Wednesday). Thankfully all but one of them is a home game!!!

Sounds like you have a busy weekend !!Me on the other hand am "BUGGING OUT!"

Gonna be a busy day today! Got to try and get everything done around the house I haven't been able to get done lately with all the work!!! Supposed to be sunny and 80 later today so I guess I will be in the yard all day doing battle with the grass that has had a whole lot of rain lately..... Then again, it will be a whole lot easier to hide Easter eggs tomorrow if I just let it go a few more days......
