Team Focker Watch Chat - the 10th anniversary thread!

I'm betting on the trampoline...........

Me too!

 

[mrsksomeday]

Yes, she definitely does not need to be a rehab counseler--it's a tough program too. Mom got her masters 4 years ago doing an online program at VCU. She loves what she does but says she's done with school! (I was really proud of her tho---she went back and got her BS at age 50 and then her masters after putting all of us thru college.)

She sounds like a great woman!! This will be Bill's 4th college degree, he already has:

computer programming
recreation programming
recreation administration

His masters will be in rehabiliation administration. He is hoping this will get him a job at a special needs camp. He has worked at them before and loves working with kids and adults with disabilities. They really respect and listen to him more than the able bodied counselors .

He says he thinks we should look for camps in Florida, I wonder why .

 

[HomeschoolMama]

Mel- You forgot me.
Hobbit legs?! OMGosh! That had me wheezing/laughing you Leisure Bimbo!
I love the sectional. It's gorgeous.

Kat- Yes, we need pics when you get everything in place.

TE- I will when I get more texts. Right now I can't (Mel) because on our trip to Disney (Mel) I went over. Do I have your cell number? Send it to me, okay?
Are you considering joining the Fockers on the October Ladies trip? We miss you!!!
And, yes, you are obsessed with cheer. You're cheer mom on Red Bull!

Janet- Bummer about the melt down. I'm glad he's setteld down and in bed now.

CE- Have fun drunk, spanish trampolining!

Jodi- Make sure you post pics of the girls in their dresses. We don't dress up for Easter at our church, so I don't get to buy dresses. I don't think I could get the girls in a dress anyway.

Uh... I have to read more to post again. I'm Mrs. Short memory.

I think so too!

 

[CelticBelle]

Oh, carp, D's home. Quick, the picture:

See you all later!

Is it just me or does this room look kinda green? It looks like a lime green DIS Party light.

 

[mrsksomeday]

I think so too!

Jodi, I boo boo'd. I should have asked you before I put you in my signature for last October's trip. I just really liked that picture. It cracks me up that when that picture comes up the one with Buzz does too right below it. If you want me to take it off I will gladly do that. I am sorry, I should have asked first. I just got in button making mode last night.

Who had the focker lanyards I have seen made up? Does anyone remember where it was done? I was thinking about getting some done and don't know the best place to get them.

We don't dress up too much either, but DD7 was in major need of some new dressier clothes for spring/summer, so I wanted to get her something new. Plus, it's always been tradition to get something new at Easter (to symbolize new life and all). I will definitely post a pic on Sunday.

Did I tell you guys that we're going to brunch with the in-laws?? I'm not overly excited about it, but I know it's what we should do. I'm just sick and tired of MIL talking about nothing but the accident and all her aches and pains. It's been close to 4 months now and that's still all she can talk about. The annoying thing is that we give her all kinds of ideas of what she can do to help herself and she refuses to do any of it. So, I'm just over hearing about her "pain" and all that stuff. I'm sure that wins me the DIL of the year award though!

I'm fine with the pic, Tracy! I think it's a great picture! Not a big deal at all!

Speaking of October, I'm going to try to butter Eric up a little tonight and bring that subject up!

Hey there!

ANGIE -

She had a great day at Epcot. They are doing a carnival tomorrow.
She has pics of her GC buys - Pg. 157, post #2355.

MrsKS had to deal with a maniac who got in Bill's face. I would stay away from her and tell her to stay away from you.
Bill's parents are stopping in for Easter. They are eating out. His mom thinks Tracy has a Disney problem. You should let her meet the Fockers! And tell her it's Jo's fault. Do they have the mountain 'home' listed somewhere?

SHARKY is not ready for the bunny. Chocolate options this late in the game are minimal.

MEL did IKEA. Pics above this post. She says the Easter Bunny is bringing her some cleaning supplies. OK, this is just sad Mel. And, are you trying to tell us your replacing funnel cakes with cinnamon rolls?

CE is looking forward to the swarm of relatives that will be invading her space in a couple of weeks. Have some wine and another &!@#^ party, you'll be fine.

V had a donut crisis. Leo is at his dad's 'til Easter morning.

DEB's kids advanced in Karate. Her van has a 'lived in' look that some cannot appreciate. I'm sorry about the job situation for your DH.

JODI's happy about her hockey team. DD5 had a meltdown at Kohl's. She wants to wear bigger girls dresses.

TE got to see the whole family at the same time, at the same table. Hope your dad gets well soon.

LORI's kids won't let her sleep.

JO walked and let the girls cook. They are off for the holiday until Tue. Did you notice TE's desclaimer?

T spent some time on the toilet and lost 3 lbs. I hope you are doing better.

CEL BEL - I bet you hate the smell of Dominos??

DAWN had a problem with the smoky air from the wildfires in the pan handle. Another house showing tomorrow.

KAT's kitty may be on the mend. I'm still thinking of you and Bale.
She and KC get to go to Hawaii. They got the new TV!!

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

The whole reason for my WDW trip is Rockie's B-day. It's on Oct. 2nd. The latest we could get there would be the 1st. I can't make it stretch. Time or money wise. Sorry! We'll just have to plan another weekend in the future. I do appreciate that you guys really would like for me to be there. I feel the love.

I hope everyone has a great weekend and Easter!

Woo hoo, you go do that !!! Anything for Ip Dip right .

His mom is correct, I am Disney addicted and fully admit it. No one will cure me ever!!! She thinks it is crazy that we go there and meet up with people. Wait until I tell her I might meet some Fockers this October . Can you see the look on her face while I am trying to explain that??

Here is the website for the "log home", that cracks me up every time I type that. The bedroom after the pool table picture is Bill's. They built a massive walk in shower, but don't have any pictures of it on the website. His dad also built an elevator so Bill could go downstairs, that man is wonderful.

I was just kidding about you changing the dates. I know you will have a fantastic time. Maybe you can come to Ip Dip 3??

OMGOSH! Kristel, these almost had me soil me drawers!

Oh MY! This story really pissed me off. I'm sorry this happened to you and Bill, Tracy. ITA with Kate.. you truly are his angel.

Uh oh... feel better soon Dawn!

Oohh... Hawaii....you know you could stop in LA for a few and hit DLR. Just sayin'

****************************************
Looks like I missed drunken foreign language night. Someone needs to FB it or something.

I read someone was looking for FOCKER LANYARDS. I know I bought mine from MickeyFan, I think her name is Jen? Yickes, I can't remember. But I'm pretty sure Rosie has some too. I know MickeyFan got a slap in the hand for selling stuff on the DIS, but I'd PM Rosie and see what she's got.

 

[debraW76]

Evening Fockers!
MrsK, there is just no excuse for what that crazy lady did. She went out of her way to harass you and Bill. She sounds lazy to me and wanted Bill to do her work for her. I am sorry you had to go through that. I hope you don't have to deal with her anymore this semester.

Kat, great news about your kitty! I will continue to remember you and your dear cat. Great news about HI

Kristel, Thanks for the update And thanks for the concern about DH's job. I know we will be provided for. I have my moments of worry, but mostly I have faith that my God will see us through this.

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
good night everyone!

Thanks so much. It made me mad too. Bill was my angel first . I adore him.

It was me, I was wondering what company made them. I will PM Rosie tomorrow about it.

Thanks Debra. She is completely lazy, she was trying to get Bill to tell her what assistive device he made for a class project and he wouldn't tell her . She better just steer clear of Bill, he has been calling me "fighter" all night .

You and your family are in my prayers, I hope DH gets good news on the job front soon.

 

[HomeschoolMama]

TE! I forgot to tell you I found a shirt like the one I wanted you to pick up for me! It's the lime green "I've got my eye on you" one!

I just remembered I boguht it! I haven't even worm it. i guess it was washed and put away and I haven't seen it since we got home.

 

[debraW76]

Good morning everyone!

we have a busy day ahead. We have a tball game, then an Easter egg hunt at a friends house, .mama wants to take the kids shopping for new Bibles for Easter, DH is taking the boys to the county fair while I take Chi to see the new hanna Montana movie. Then we are heading up the mountain to stake out a campsite for next week, moving mama's RV over here to start cleaning it and packing.

Did anyone see the woot for today? It is a Disney record set, yep that's right, record as in vinyl? Weird huh?

hope everyone has a great day!!

[ncsjodi]

Morning everyone!

Can I just say that I'm ready to strangle my dog?? I know he's been sick, but does he really have to wake me up three times during the night to be let outside only to stand there and do nothing?? Seriously??? I love him, but he's driving me crazy!!!!

Well, we've got two different Egg Hunts to go to today and then there's the big game tonight! It should be an exciting day! Hopefully it ends well!!!!

Have a wonderful day everyone!

 

[1Princess1Prince2006]

Morning everyone!

Looks like a have quite a few pages to catch up on but it looks like some need to go around.

I am so proud of DR. First he slept in his own bed last night and second he slept with big boy underwear on and had no accidents!!!! Hopefully he'll do the same tonight!

We were supposed to go shopping for Lindsey's Easter dress last night but after the temper tantrum she threw for 2 hours over ice cream cake I decided I didn't really want to take her anymore. So, maybe we can go this afternoon if not she won't have anything to wear. LOL

That's about it for us. Hope y'all have a good Saturday!

I totally understand this, Lori. I took DD7 out last night and we got dresses for both girls. Brought home the one we picked out for DD5 and she was okay with it. I told her that next time, if she figured out how to behave, she could pick out her own dress.

And we have the prom coming up---got her a nice dress at macys that looks great!

Haven't seen Jen in a while, but I know she had to stop selling them (that's where I got mine too).

[1Princess1Prince2006]

Uh oh…it looks like I missed drunk Spanish/German night. Didn’t understand the Spanish at all, but amazingly enough I could understand the German. I guess 4 years did help. Don’t ask me to speak it though.

Angela – Looks like you got a lot of great things!

Debra – Sorry I had to LOL at the van vent. I feel the same way when my best friend gets in my car.

Kat – Such good news about Bale! Yay for getting the new TV and Congrats on the trip to HI. Sounds like fun!

Tracey - I am so sorry that happened to both you and Bill. And OMG that house is gorgeous! So nice that Bill is ale to get around it as well and able to enjoy it.

Jodi – Glad you were able to take DD shopping and got the dresses. I know all to well about meltdowns and in stores.

Dawn – Congrats on the new phone! Hope you’re feeling better today!

Mel – I love that leather sectional! Very nice! And I like Bob’s chair as well.

OK...I think I'm all caught up now. to everyone I missed.

I gotta run! I forgot Linds has T-ball practice at 11!
