Happy Anniversary @Lynne G

@schumi that is an awesome tri-fecta celebration. congratulations!! Bubbly for everyone!

i let the girls sleep in today. they were an hour and 15 minutes late. somehow the summer schedules got crossed and after getting the girls all excited to go to princess camp - (picked out the dresses and everything), realized it is NEXT week! I remember they moved it last minute and looks like we deleted the wrong one from the calendar.

all day spanish immersion does not have the same child appeal compared to princess camp at dance school. not to mention - now we are double booked (read = double paid) for next week. i am just glad i caught it before my husband dropped them off this morning! i am hoping the school let us get a credit for the fall - the girls would be crushed to miss princess camp. not to mention is 1/2 the price!

oh - and our electrical box needs to be replaced. no power in living room or master bedroom. so thankful the electrician can come on wednesday. it's old and we knew it was coming - but of course, it has to happen right before vacation.

so lucky i can work from home this morning so the girls could get some extra rest. i dropped off a happy rapunzel and elsa for a day of spanish!

okay - that fart machine though.... bwahahhahaah.

@keishashadow the girls refer to the portofino as the beach pool and ask to go constantly. they think we are going over the 4th even though i keep telling them it is not at disney. RPH has a beach pool too, but for some reason, they love PBH. they have never been to HRH. hmmm. maybe i could sneak a day over at HRH on 6/30 before disney?

Oh no, Chuckers. Not only what a way to end a nice stay, but your birthday! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

What a way to end my Birthday... Driving home from my weekend at my sister's, yesterday, my car over heated on I-90. I, luckily, got into a service plaza only to find out that AAA is not allowed to work I-90 in Massachusetts. So, the state police had to dispatch a tow truck. Seems like my coolant fan is not working. I am stuck in a hotel an hour away from home. The mechanic said he 'should' be able to fix it this afternoon... looks like I'll be here another night...

oh my! that is horrible. and what kind of a bs rule is that? guess the service plaza's didn't want any competition? happy you were close to a service plaza and not stuck on the side of the road!

goND, that's so funny getting the weeks mixed up. I had to double check when the kids are both working at the camp they used to attend. No sleep for my younger one, our schools do not end until next week. Then I am sure, both kids will be sleeping late. That princess camp definitely sounds fun, though my only girl would have not liked it. While she was into Cinderella when little, then Tink as she got older, she never was one to dress up at home, or want to wear costumes out unless it was for Halloween events. Oh well, tom girl she still is. Two weeks, and beach soccer will be here. Still have not heard the price of that. Well, at least the prime time cost of the hotel is already known and paid for. Summer at our shore is so popular that the hotels require minimum stays, that and about a couple hundred kid families come for this beach soccer tournament, so hotel prices are premium priced. And, if not enough money, just found out the cost of next year's club soccer for little one. Oh my, so much for saving money for not having to pay for summer camp for the kids.

Tis getting warm outside, and colder inside.

@Lynne G beach soccer? oh my! that just sounds expensive! my girls LOVE dressing up. They won't wear the costumes tho - because they are itchy. So i just buy real dresses that have a similar look. Disney sells nice ones that I get on amazon for way less - and then they go play in the mud with them. HA! there is also a decendants camp. it is supposed to be for the older girls who don't really dress up anymore and are out of the princess stage - but my girls are obsessed. they are letting them go even though they are way younger. we will see how they like it. they will probably be the only ones dressing up!

i do not remember dressing up when i was younger. of course there were only like 4 princesses then...

glad the weather is warming up a bit and you are in the home stretch for school!

Why are people getting confused by the term "The Dark Side"? Where are these people coming from?

I was confused at first because I thought that the Dark Side would mean Disney when on a Universal board. (And there is a Dark Side to Disney from talking to former and current employees in my neighborhood . . . )

 

[schumigirl]

Universal has always been the Darkside since before I joined here.......always will be.......

Kohlby.......you're not unobservant I barely notice folks avatars never mind what's written underneath..................although some folk I do avoid reading their posts for various reasons so I know those avatars........

A real shame about car issues and not being able to get home yet

Hope the car is fixed soon and you can get back home today

....

Yea totally true

Wdw is the motherland and UO is the darkside
It's been the unknown place since the beginning until others started to venture out and try it

UO can hold its own now and is no longer a one or two day park

It is a total vacation for many

 

[Chuckers]

I am hoping the car gets fixed today... but I got to ride some roller coasters at 6 Flags yesterday, the hotel I am at is nice, and last night the bartender took pity on me and gave me a free slice of chocolate devotion cake for my birthday I am probably stuck here another night tho. Mechanic said he might be able to get the part today and fix it by 5, but not to count on it.
