Good morning

 

[KBerly]

Welcome home, Anne Marie! Love your pics. TFS.

Tom, your dresses for Leighanna are really too cute! You could definitely go into business making them for others!

Amy, I those Pan costumes. Too cute!

Hello everyone!

I'm just popping in to say "hi!" My last visit here was Tuesday (I think) and I can't believe how many pages have been filled since then! I have a lot of reading ahead of me tonight

How do you guys do it?

I told my DH about all the great new friends I made the last time I was here . . I thought he'd laugh at me, but he thought it was really neat! He's such an amazing DH!!!

Maria!

I thought for sure that our posting mania had scared you off! You'll catch on. If you need to, ask for a recap. Someone will post it and voila - you're all caught up! Good to see you post.

We do get in our "stalker" modes!

Yeah - that too, Maria. But, only to make sure you're okay.

Deb, hope you finish the deck today so you can enjoy the holiday on your new deck!

When I turned on the computer today, I had a whole bunch of PM design requests for designs I had to get done first!!

Your DISigns are awesome!

I am meeting a friend for drinks/appetizers at 4:30 tomorrow. She is a lovely girl, but I am a little nervous about her motives. We met doing charity events. She lost her job with the non-profit due to budget cuts, now she is selling some kind of "wellness products". I don't want to buy any wellness products. I don't want to sell them, either.

IKWYM. I had a friend who sold things and every time I talked to her, she asked me to host a party. I hate going to those parties. I certainly don't want to host one. I never hosted one for her. I hope that your friend doesn't pressure you.

My DD wanted to figure out what we are going to do for Thanksgiving.

I really like the idea. We could go to a nice place for dinnner, still do the Black Friday shopping and then off to crop.

that this works out for you, Steffy.

Kim- Did you get that nap?

Yes. Yes I did.

 

[KBerly]

Good Morning, DDA!

The boys and I are going to do something fun today. Maybe putt-putt. I told them no videos, no toonies, no computer. So, I'll catch up with ya'll later tonight. Have a great day!

Anne Marie - Cute pics! I am glad your flight home was OK!
I don't think I would book to go home quite that late because I don't like to fool with checking our carry-ons with Bell Services. DH's rule is that he MUST have one complete day to rest after WDW, but we usually come home in the early evening of the day before his "rest" day. Our flight left MCO at 5 PM and we were home by about 8 PM, but we gain an hour crossing to CST.
When do the kids go back to school?

The girls go back on Wednesday, & Daniel goes back Thursday. We did need yesterday to recouperate. Everyone here is toast. We got the kids to bed early last night so they could get a good rest. I got Daniels bus assignment & he is expected to be ready for pick up at 7:04am! Thats going to be a tough one to get used to but I guess we have no choice. He needs a lot of sleep so I'll have to put him to be by 7-8pm. That's if I am not running around driving Katie to dance or acting. By the way, Daniel loves your DS. He had such a great time talking with him. He is still talking about his new friend.

Great pictures Anne Marie!

Thank you!

Good Evening!


Welcome back Anne Marie!

Your pictures are great!

Thanks!!

I got Leighanna's Chef Mickey dress done today!

One more outfit done for our trip!

Still have a couple of more to get done!


Where oh where is my ticker?!

I really need to see how close I am getting!

Tom, your work is amazing!!!! I mean it, you should sell those!!

Anne Marie, welcome home!

Great pictures! I can't wait to see more.

Our trip is only three months away!!!

Thanks Amy, hope your kids are feeling better.

home Anne Marie!!!

Thanks! I wasn't THAT sad leaving this trip because I know I'll be back in October.

Glynis,
Love the back to school pictures.

Anne Marie - I loved the pictures! Your children are beautiful.

Elizabeth - is DS playing the drum line from the Charlie Brown theme (probably better known as "Linus and Lucy")? If so, it probably IS the same thing over and over!

Well, yes, but we have it on CD and I know there are more than 12 notes! He just plays ding ding ding, ding ding ding, ding ding, ding ding ding ding. I should make him listen to the CD and see if he can pick out a bit more of it than what he is currently playing. I would prefer that he figure out how to play Zip A Dee Doo Dah. There was an auction on eBay one day that when you clicked it a xylophone Zip A Dee played and it was lovely!

Robyn - What a fabulous recap! You are on top of things this morning. I am not sure I WANT to call my Ex's, but I promised to take Brother out. Since I am pretty sure nobody else keeps their promises to him I want to make sure I do! Have fun playing Putt Putt!

Janet - We have those stupid celings, too. And our ceiling in the living room slopes so one side of it is about 14 ft. high. I haven't figured out a good way to reach up there, so it is pretty dusty!

I need to get the laundry started. Ick. I don't want to do laundry!

Bob and I are going to spend this gloriously gorgeous day in Richmond on a James River Canal Cruise!

Kristin will go with us and then we will head to dinner at a favorite spot in downtown Richmond. They have quite a diverse menu but their beer list is 14 pages long! The staff is a little quirky, just like us!

The thing we love about this place is the strip of ice that runs the whole length of the bar. Since we like our beer ice cold, this is a real draw for us!

Anne Marie - I loved the pictures! Your children are beautiful.

Thanks Elin! Enjoy your day in Richmond.

 

[jackskellingtonsgirl]

Elin - That sounds like fun! Enjoy your day!
I am attempting to finish unpacking, and at the same time I am sort of pre-packing for December. December will be carry-ons only, so I need to remember not to put the carry ons where I can't get them! I also need to remember not to put any liquids in there unless they are in the designated TSA approved baggie.

 

[PNO4TE]

Love Leighanna's new Chef Mickey's outfit, Tom! And your ticker is back

 

[PNO4TE]

Glynis - Hugs to Jacob! Poor thing!

Tom - That dress is the BOMB! I LOVE it! We will have to hire you to be Princess's personal seamster (is that a word?) when she gets ready to go on her first trip! I can't sew a button on without sustaining injury.

well, I figure if there can be a Teamster, there can certainly be a Seamster!

 

[PNO4TE]

Thanks Elizabeth!

I prefer the word "tailor". Sounds a little more masculine! Not that sewing yards and yards of ruffles is masculine or anything!

I suppose you could be the DDA Tailor, instead.

 

[PNO4TE]

Kevin is in touch with his feminine side...he does hair now.

That was a bow from one of Matthew's birthday presents.

Matthew is finally growing some hair. Please excuse his messy face...this was a post-breakfast picture.

Love these as usual, Amy. I can certainly tell they are related to you and Kevin! You all look so much alike and the smiles are dead giveaways!

 

[babytrees]

Elizabeth - is DS playing the drum line from the Charlie Brown theme (probably better known as "Linus and Lucy")? If so, it probably IS the same thing over and over!

that's what I was thinking.

Cassidy's part in the field show is irritatingly the same thing over and over...and really high too!!

 

[PNO4TE]

Okay now to get some sleep Morning DDA

Good morning, Jennifer! Thanks for checking in with us... we were worried like little mother hens.

Sorry that Olivia got the chicken pox from the vaccine. Kathrin got the measles from the vaccine the day after she was born! Had to be put in isolation.

 

[PNO4TE]

OK - off to the grocery store and then to Richmond. Enjoy your days, friends!
