The financially irresponsible WDW trip! [June 25th: p.45, posts 668 & 669]

Hi Deb

I'm another newbie to your TR, but I absolutely adore it. Your style of including the good and the not-so-good makes me feel like we're old friends. Keep on telling it like it is, because we've all been there done that! Your boys are very sweet, the way they look after little Alice, and she is an absolute doll baby. Those blue eyes! To die for.

I've read all your updates, but not all of the posts in between, so I may have missed it if you ever said where you were from in Ireland, but I have a guess. Hubby and I live in Florida, but we work in Ireland about a fourth of the year - we're there about 4 times per year, for about a month at a time. If I'm right about your city, we've been there several times. We base in Dublin when we come, but we travel around the country a good bit. I'm actually wondering if you and Grumpy might know some of our musician friends from the second largest city in Ireland

Anyway, like everybody else, I am now anxiously awaiting your next installment. Keep up the good work!

I just spent a little bit of time last night and a lot of time tonight reading your whole TR. Very entertaining. All your pics are great but the one with your daughter and Eeyore is sooo adorable. I loved your boys' costumes. I have two older boys like you(12 and 11) and two younger ones also (4 and 1) but (sigh) no girl for me.
My son will be 13 in a few weeks and I can't believe it either. I will be a mom of a teenager. WHAT! Very weird.
Anyways I am patiently waiting for another installment.

Creeping back in... on my knees... begging for forgiveness.

I'm a bad bad TR writer.

But I have a really good excuse for disappearing for weeks on end..... um, ....... well.... I would have a really good excuse if I could think one up.... Basically it's just been really really tough finding time to get on the computer (even for work) with the kids off school. I've not had a whole lot of work lately actually and it's when the pressure of work is on that I'm at my best on the DIS

Anyway, I haven't forgotten about Disney World (how could I?) or my TR... I thought a different type of holiday (i.e. our trip to France) might perhaps dilute the powerful craving I constantly have for WDW but, alas, no. Great and all as our French trip was, I still want to get back to Disney. I promise I still remember some, er, a lot, of our trip so the TR will get underway again soon.

Thanks SO much for the encouragement and compliments. I'll write some replies soon. :wave

In the meantime, here's a few photos of our holiday in France to tide us over til I get back to my TR chapters.....

The town of St Goustan in Auray, Brittany

This beautiful place was called Vannes

Vannes again

Aha! Looky closely and that is the same as in France in Epcot's Boulangerie Patisserie! So, you were thinking of WDW the whole time!

DM I was thinking the same thing when I saw that picture. The first thing I saw was that.
Disney minds think alike.

Ok, no more family vacations until this is done. Although my wife is tired of hearing about the fun Wayne and Garth and Grumpy are having. I was telling her this story and she looked at me so seriously and said, "Who the heck is Grumpy?". I died laughing.

"I don't see why I should have to carry my OWN case".

We've been missing you! Glad you are back, and all is forgiven (or at least it will be as soon as you update )

I love Alice's hair. She looks so grown up. It's adorable.
