Snow-Wigd and the Christmas Elves, a December pre-trip!

[SoonerGirl]

-OK, Sunday is doable! I'll talk to DH and see what he thinks.

-Glad you enjoyed Wicked

-Harper is one adorable pumpkin!

-Where did you get the window clings? Target? I've been hoping to find some cute Disney ones for our window.

 

[Happydog]

LL you better go get those stocking right away!! Word has it that all Targets around the country are shipping their stockings to Kansas since a particular store patron is buying them out in every area store...

JUST kidding WigD!!!

LOVE these photos! Great Turkey bags, and a cute pumpkin is your pumpkin!

SO glad you enjoyed Wicked! It is a great show! Nice hoodie, too!

I have to still post my Halloween pics! Talk about being holiday-conflicted!!!!

I can't tell if I should be saying BOO, Gobble, or Jingle Bells!

 

[wigdoutdismom]

I probably will end up picking them up. My Target still doesn't have all the Christmas stuff out. BOO!

I also love the Popular song. It's just great!

I liked the Popular song too! I really took a fancy to the pink "popular" t-shirt, but after spending $65 for the hoodie, I thought that needed to be enough!
Marc just told me that our Target had a few Mickeys and 1 Minnie left. Do you want me to go tomorrow and get them for you?

-OK, Sunday is doable! I'll talk to DH and see what he thinks.

He probably thinks we are all crazy!

-Glad you enjoyed Wicked

We did! It was outstanding!

-Harper is one adorable pumpkin!

Thanks, that little pumpkin is going to give us a run for our money at Disney!

-Where did you get the window clings? Target? I've been hoping to find some cute Disney ones for our window.

Yes, I got them at Target, thinking about decorating windows but then thought the only windows we will have will be out to the balconies with our savanna view. I don't think the giraffes will enjoy the window clings....

LL you better go get those stocking right away!! Word has it that all Targets around the country are shipping their stockings to Kansas since a particular store patron is buying them out in every area store...

Now that had me laughing, we were almost like store stalkers.....

JUST kidding WigD!!!

NOT!

LOVE these photos! Great Turkey bags, and a cute pumpkin is your pumpkin!

The kids had the most fun making those turkeys! That little pumpkin is a sweetie!

SO glad you enjoyed Wicked! It is a great show! Nice hoodie, too!

We had a fabulous time at Wicked! I imagine that hoodie will make an appearance in my TR....

I have to still post my Halloween pics! Talk about being holiday-conflicted!!!!

I can't tell if I should be saying BOO, Gobble, or Jingle Bells!

Wasn't there a Seinfeld about just this thing.....well close anyway. Festivas!

What a great Wicked update -- love the hat you wore and your souvenir hoodie! Not to mention how cute Harper was in her pumpkin costume on Halloween!

 

[shannn]

Great Wicked update!! I have that hoodie. Let me check something... yep, that's the cast we saw in Nashville. Marcie Dodd was amazing. She was my favorite Elphaba I've seen out of the 5 times I've seen that show.

OH, and my favorite song is definitely "For Good." I can not hear it without crying. Seriously, it's rather embarrassing when it comes on my Ipod and I suddenly start wiping away tears. My second favorite song is "Dancing through Life." O.M.G. how I love that Fiyero!!!!

I couldn't believe all of the hats at the performance! At least the witches in the audience had the good manners to take them off when the performance started. I guess at a show last week some gal left one on the entire time....
We thought Harper was a precious little pumpkin!

Those gals were incredibly talented!

I'm going to become much more familiar with the music from the show, I loved it! The entire cast ( : Fiyero) was fantastic!

 

[Happydog]

Let's plan to meet up at 7:00!

SOUNDS GREAT!!!!!

Can't wait!!!

 

[wigdoutdismom]

SOUNDS GREAT!!!!!

Can't wait!!!

We just need to decide on the meeting spot!

 

[vamassey1]

Loved your Wicked update. I loved that you dressed. I don't think I would be brave enough for that. It's coming to New Orleans in March. Michelle and I may go.

Harper is just too precious. I can't wait to see the pictures when ya'll get back from Disney.

Your student's turkeys are perfect. I miss that kind of stuff as the kids get older.

I'm going to steal your idea for the window clings. Michelle and I are going to look for Mardi Gras clings. They start putting out the decoration before Christmas here. We're planning on bringing beads too. I have tons!

 

[MeMom]

Harper had a great time playing with the paper sack the residents had given her. The candy wasn't of much interest but she loved rattling that bag.

Such a little doll! I know you guys just sit around and watch her for entertainment.

And she, like Bella, plays with crinkly bags for entertainment.

I bet the residents of the assisted living home just love seeing her! Don't you just know they are flooded with sweet memories of times past when they see those precious little children?!?!? My grandmothers always lived at home, but I remember that both of them loved, loved, loved when I took the kids to visit with them.

I like your paper bag turkeys. Cheap, simple, and cute.
I never did get around to doing those spiders earlier, but I may have the time to do these. We've started another round of DIBELS this week, though, so who knows. It seems like when we're not testing for one thing, we are testing for another. Rarely is there a break from some kind of testing and writing down numbers in boxes.

So glad you enjoyed Wicked. Gotta have some fun stuff going on in your life, and that sounds fun!

I hope my Target has the Mickey window clings. I have given them a week, so I'm going to check in again today on my way home from school and see what they have added since they've taken out the Halloween stuff.

Have a good Monday! I'm sure you will enjoy sharing your Wicked fun with the other teachers now.

 

[jenjolt]

OMGosh!! MUST HAVE THAT HAT!! Something tells me that down here in SEC Gator country (gag me) I won't be able to find that but oh...what a hat!! Tell Baylor he's lucky to have such a great santa hat because I would be totally tempted to steal it from him!!!!!!!

Oh what pictures of Wicked! I'm so glad you guys had such a great time!!! I have two favorite songs from the musical, Defying Gravity, which oooh gives me goosebumps I have it on my ipod for when I go walking and No Good Deed Goes Unpunished, you can just hear the anguish in her voice during that song!!! LOVE IT!! So happy you guys had a great time and I'm going to find a way to see that show sometime!! BTW Totally love the Wicked outfit, the hat is awesome!!!!

Harper is way too cute!!! Have to agree with everyone else...cutest pumpkin EVER!

 

[jillyb]

Glad you enjoyed Wicked. Love your hat and that's got to be one of the cutest pumpkins I've ever seen!

 

[Lady Lallie]

I'll keep checking my store. I'm going to go either tomorrow or this weekend so if I still can't find them then I might take you up on your offer! Thanks!

 

[PracPerfPatricia]

Anita,

so glad you enjoyed Wicked...can never watch the Wizard of Oz the same way can you......I loved it...

such a cute little pumpkin...

I saw those stocking at our Target...they only had Minnie...but a lot of them for some reason...no Mickey...maybe they are sending them all to Kansas...

Love your student's turkeys -love, love Thanksgiving...just about food and family......and the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade...

 

[SoonerGirl]

He probably thinks we are all crazy!

Well I can tell you that he thinks I am crazy for my disboards/Disney obsession, so I'm sure he thinks the rest of you are too!


I went to Target today and got some of those window clings, I got the Fab 5 one and the Cars one - thought the boys would like Cars better than Tink....

I was also able to find a couple of those tins in the $1 spot Thanks for posting those!!

 

[MeMom]

No tins at ours, but today there were several Mickey and Minnie stockings, Cars and Tink stuff, and some Winnie-the-Pooh ornaments and stockings. I'm doing the cash only thing right now, weaning myself off using the card too much, so I came out with only a $3.99 Toy Story ornament and the $1.99 clings. It was fun looking at everything, but it was also nice to walk out without putting anything on my card. Even one dollar is harder to give up when I am looking at the green stuff as opposed to swiping the card.

 

[wigdoutdismom]

Loved your Wicked update. I loved that you dressed. I don't think I would be brave enough for that. It's coming to New Orleans in March. Michelle and I may go.

Be sure to wear your witch hat.....

Harper is just too precious. I can't wait to see the pictures when ya'll get back from Disney.

I'm sure she's going to be memorized by all the Disney magic!

Your student's turkeys are perfect. I miss that kind of stuff as the kids get older.

Those turkeys are so darn funny!

I'm going to steal your idea for the window clings. Michelle and I are going to look for Mardi Gras clings. They start putting out the decoration before Christmas here. We're planning on bringing beads too. I have tons!

Mardi Gras will be very fun to celebrate at Disney.....if you don't mind me asking.....how'd you get those beads?

Such a little doll! I know you guys just sit around and watch her for entertainment.

She's a very busy little girl that's for sure and she just loves her Uncle Baylor!

And she, like Bella, plays with crinkly bags for entertainment.

I thought of Bella when she was playing with that bag!

I bet the residents of the assisted living home just love seeing her! Don't you just know they are flooded with sweet memories of times past when they see those precious little children?!?!? My grandmothers always lived at home, but I remember that both of them loved, loved, loved when I took the kids to visit with them.

They do love to see the children come in, well, children and dogs..... My mother is quite possessive of her company!

The turkeys have a cup of uncooked rice in a baggy in the sack and a recipe for left over turkey and rice around the neck.

So glad you enjoyed Wicked. Gotta have some fun stuff going on in your life, and that sounds fun!

We sure did! It was amazing!

I hope my Target has the Mickey window clings. I have given them a week, so I'm going to check in again today on my way home from school and see what they have added since they've taken out the Halloween stuff.

Keep an eye on your mailbox, I sent a package your way.

Have a good Monday! I'm sure you will enjoy sharing your Wicked fun with the other teachers now.

Now they can all talk without ruining the ending for me!

OMGosh!! MUST HAVE THAT HAT!! Something tells me that down here in SEC Gator country (gag me) I won't be able to find that but oh...what a hat!! Tell Baylor he's lucky to have such a great santa hat because I would be totally tempted to steal it from him!!!!!!!

I'll go and check back at Target and see if they have anymore KU Santa hats!

Isn't that music just wonderful? I have fallen it love with it!

Harper is way too cute!!! Have to agree with everyone else...cutest pumpkin EVER!

Awwww thanks! I just wish the Minnie costume would have fit!

Glad you enjoyed Wicked. Love your hat and that's got to be one of the cutest pumpkins I've ever seen!

Thanks, it was fun wearing the hat and we agree on the little pumpkin!

I'll keep checking my store. I'm going to go either tomorrow or this weekend so if I still can't find them then I might take you up on your offer! Thanks!

Just let me know.

Anita,

so glad you enjoyed Wicked...can never watch the Wizard of Oz the same way can you......I loved it...

Very true and especially painful coming from a Kansas girl.... What a great story!

such a cute little pumpkin...

Thanks, we think she's pretty cute too.

I saw those stocking at our Target...they only had Minnie...but a lot of them for some reason...no Mickey...maybe they are sending them all to Kansas...

Hmmmm, maybe, it was Minnie that I was hunting.....
Glad she turned up!

Love your student's turkeys -love, love Thanksgiving...just about food and family......and the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade...

I love Thanksgiving too!

Well I can tell you that he thinks I am crazy for my disboards/Disney obsession, so I'm sure he thinks the rest of you are too!

I'm just glad that I got my dh to drink the DIS koolaide!

I went to Target today and got some of those window clings, I got the Fab 5 one and the Cars one - thought the boys would like Cars better than Tink....

But what about you? I'll just bet you could have used a little Tink!

I was also able to find a couple of those tins in the $1 spot Thanks for posting those!!

I'm always happy to enable another shopper!

Ha, you were posting when I was posting! I don't blame you one bit for not wanting to put it on a charge card and I agree that the green stuff is hard to let go of. I guess it was a good thing the dollar bins weren't full of Disney goodies.
Tell Jill to keep an eye on her mailbox too!

 

[Happydog]

We just need to decide on the meeting spot!

Okay, that sounds good! So I made a few tweaks to my ADRs a couple weeks ago -- so long ago I can't remember, have to go dig through my notes and look at my spreadsheet -- something makes me think I bumped my ADR up... I have to double check. Then I say we just pick a place in DHS? Somewhere before the queue to get into the light show? I can't wait to be there!!!! Just talking about it with you makes me realize it is really coming!!!!

 

[wsushocker]

I'm just glad that I got my dh to drink the DIS koolaide!

I don't remember drinking any Koolaid but I do recall a bite mark!
