We are psyched about the Dolphin!! The rooms look AMAZING - we actually got a AAA online rate! It was even lower than when we called and asked for one -

has anyone ever stayed there - any tips?

I haven't even watched much and I was shocked! I don't think I've ever heard the auditorium that quiet.

I think everyone was shocked by the bottom two. As soon as they announced them, the auditorium shut right down.

$4.99 a pack

jen did you go to the VOA Target?

I got the boys ones there - didn't you say you couldn't find them - they were not with the princess ones - they were in the action figure aisle!!

I wasn't looking for those, but I was at the Springdale one after going to the mall. :goodvibes
 

Congrats May trippers on the Dolphin upgrade. Are you just trying to continually make us more jealous? ;) :thumbsup2

Goodnight everyone!

You are just realizing this now! :confused3 Now you know why Theresa kept complaining about all the pm's from me. I'm sure I also contributed to Deb's mailbox getting so full!!! :rotfl:

I have another tee of each color ordered for each of the travelin' pals. I'll send them off to the pals when I receive them (hopefully in a day or two). I'm also still waiting for the white tees.

I hope you enjoy him as much as I did getting him ready to go!

Yup!! I had almost 100 and all but 4 were from Vicki and they were about Pal Mickey. Now I have 20 and again the majority are from Vicki, mainly checking to see who has control of the brain. :teeth:
 
I have to make a proud mommy brag!

Christopher has almost finished his second week of swimming lessons and he's been doing great except for swimming across the pool (I'm not good with distances, but this pool is much wider than a standard pool). He can do it but would always panic. This morning he told me this was his nervous day because he was going to swim across the pool today. I talked to him about setting a goal and that he should reward himself if he makes his goal.

Well, he did it!!! He got up for his breaths and quickly got horizontal again. He flew across the pool! His coach and I knew he could do it if he just got past the mental part of it. She gave him a little medal and told him he was the first of they boys to be able to do it. He was very proud of himself!

He also jumped off the diving board and swam to the side. He did this all last summer but the fear overtook him and I had to bribe him with an Icee to get him to do it again but now he thinks it's easy. We decided to let him join the swim team next week.

Speaking of his coach, Clare I think of you every time I see her. She is from England. As far north as you can get without hitting Scotland is how she described it. She has that beautiful accent that (for me anyway) sounds very similar to an Australian accent. She's an awesome person. I told her about you and your "Clarisms" (did I spell that right Amy ;) ) and I mentioned Bob's your uncle. She laughed and said she totally confused her American husband when she said that because he really has an uncle named Bob.

Hi, all. Kids had a great day at 'Art in the Park' (their field day which was all arts and crafts). They made sand art, tie dye shirts, hermit crabs out of large pasta shells, sun visors, flower lei necklaces, clay butterflies, and tornado bottles. They had a pizza party too. The weather held off (it's raining now with storms coming tonight), so it was cool even. Found out one of their good friends from school will be going to K at their school next fall. They are very excited.

Glad to hear it was a good day!!
 
Kate???!!!! Are you out there???!! Are you going to make me beg??!!! :rotfl: Where are my pictures? Please can I see at least one picture of Julia and Nick with Pal Mickey before I go to bed??!! Plllleeeeeeaaaaassssseeeee!

I wish I had a cute little kid. I would take a picture of them the way Chuck taught my girls to ask me for something sweetly. Imagine if you can: a cute little blond girl with her hands together (almost as if in prayer) in front of her face, with her head tilted to the side just a little, looking up at you with an angelic look on her face and the saddest little eyes saying "Pretty Please"!

Find out at the beginning of your stay if the boat launch is open! When I stayed at the Boardwalk last year, the Swan/Dolphin boat launch was being repainted and the boat wouldn't stop. That means buses!
Isn't that where Shula's is at? I heard they have AWESOME steak!
