Isn't that the whole "leave and cleave" thing they talk about during the wedding ceremony. I was too busy looking googly eyed at my bride during mine, so I might not be remembering it correctly.
Of course it is... but some of us have quite the patriarch of a FIL... and marrying his little girl meant that somehow he had the right to continue his role as head of the household into my household... ummm, excuse me? While some of us have a MIL who pretty much expects to be included on any outing that the grandchildren go on... And some of have a wife whose MIL and FIL both have expectations about this holiday and that holiday, and, and, and... let me just say that moving out of state helped break that cycle fast. As long as we lived in the same state... there was no getting around it all, no matter how vocal we became. So yeah, the leaving and cleaving intent was / is there... but if you have double sets of Frank & Marie to think about... don't live across the street from them!
Make it so they have to get on an airplane to come visit - and then need to go back home again after a week or so.
It happens to the best of us.
Yes, yes it does.... no what did I come in here for?
Greatness! This may deserve a spot on the front page of the thread!
Kinda what I was thinking
Well, we found out today that my father-in-law will be requiring a triple or quadruple bypass. Surgery is scheduled for Monday. DW is really upset and DS is old enough to know something not-so-great will be happening to grandpa.
Doctor said he has a strong heart and feels confident that things will go well. Funny thing - FIL had 75% blockage of his heart, but wasn't overly affected. Just said he felt a little more tired than usual. They caught it last week when he failed his stress test at his checkup.
Hopefully all goes well and he is up and at 'em soon enough. Just thought I would post this to ask for prayers and good vibes for my awesome FIL. Thanks in advance.
Oh my, I will definitely be praying.
Wow.
Congrats Stopher on the closing. I especially enjoyed your method using all the pics.
And I say thank you, kind sir.
At the pace set yesterday, look for IX in about 10 days.
Just re-introducing myself here, lapsed member (#149) now back in the fold.

Looking forward to getting to know you all!
see you around..

Welcome back, Pat!
Hey Dads:
I would love to see the new POTC while we are at WDW in May, but was wondering if there is an amc right at DTD and if so, is it suggested to buy tkts in advance? Has anyone had issues getting tkts to movies there?
Yes, it is the AMC Pleasure Island 24. You can see all of their listings, times, etc. online
here Many times with big openings they do have the midnight showings on opening day. For any "big" film, getting tickets in advance is a good idea, even at DTD since many locals go to that theater. It's by the West Side entrance, near Planet Hollywood, extending down into the West Side, with another entrance across from Wolfgang Puck Cafe.
That sounds exactly like something I would do. Or have done.
Me too.
on Prayers. Hope that things go as well for him as they did for my FIL this week. He had surgery on Friday to reattach his colon, fix some hernias, and a few other things, and was told that if everything went well he might be out in a week to ten days. He was sent home this morning.
That's great news. 
im rotten with names, as some of you all ready know.
if the name dont come to me real fast, i just dont use a name.
cool1: still got the touch
) 1 light coat with the taping, and a light skim coat afterwards, hardly any sanding
, Guess all the Auto Body work i've done when I was younger paid off
This is a skill I haven't quite mastered yet. 
You could hear the ball bouncing around in it.
