You think that is cute?!?!?!?

Ugh...I did a google search for "creepy clowns"!!!! Zack put it up for me...I have no idea how he did it.

You wouldn't like the Boardwalk pool. You slide down and exit into the water out a creepy clowns big mouth with it's tongue hanging out.

I am so glad she said she'd refund me. Now I am worried how the rest of my stuff will wind up looking!!

OMG...You two CLOWNS crack me up!!! I used to walk home from kindergarden everyday to eat lunch and watch the Bozo show! Kelly you are too funny with that pic!!!!

OK, I got an email from her. She just said return it and she'll credit me thru paypal. Thank God. I thought I'd be stuck with that gaudy rag. Poor Tatum would have had to deal with it on her feet every day.

Bozo is going bye bye. Here's one for you to dream on, Praline!

That is great Channing! Glad she was able to take it back!!!!!
Did she make any comments about how horrid it was made?

OMG OMG... I am dying over here Channing...

See your post about creepy clown ...the pic didn't show up on my PC until AFTER I posted what I thought was a creepy clown

I thought you meant the slown smilie you used...

So I go to read my post and start scrolling up and see that DANG creepy clown over and over and over..... Totally wigged me out as he was on a bunch of posts

I am dying over here!!! I can't believe out of the millions of creepy clown we had picked the SAME CREEPY CLOWN... and I didn't know it as your pic wasnt showing up.... OMG THAT IS SOOOOOOOOO BEYOND CREEPY
Night light here I come....:::go to my happy place, go to my happy place:::

Does anyonehave info on the my girl princess tea party? Do the girls get to pick which doll they want or are they given any doll when they walk in. My daughter has brown hair and she has already asked if her doll will have brown hair. You gotta love these little girls!!

 

[arbonnette]

that skirt is giving me a seizure like when I have to watch pokemon with the kids

I almost woke DD up I laughed so loud when I read that.
Channing, the skirt is really bad. Glad you worked it out though. I can spot Walmart fabric a mile away, and when you order customs from ebay many, many, many sellers use cheap, thin fabric.

I hope the rest of your items are as cute as the HM jeans. Would you PM me the name of the seller who did those? Hannah would LOVE those.

Unfortunately, they don't get to pick. They get the blond one and she comes dressed as Aurora (Sleeping Beauty). The Sleeping Beauty outfit is only available at the Tea Party; they don't sell that outfit in the shops, which is nice that it is exclusive to the party, I guess.
The tea party is nice, but if your DD is a picky eater, don't expect her to eat the sandwiches they serve. Of course, mine cleaned her plate. Most of the girls though, I noticed didn't touch their food. HTH!

arbonnette, didn't you just love the weather today?

I got to cut down the freeze kill limbs and start my spring gardening

I love love days like today, not too hot, not cold... not tons of blistering sun... what a great day!!!!

 

[irisbud]

OMG, I am ROTFL at that skirt. Good thing they took it back.

Maybe you should have kept it though. That way, you couldn't get lost in the Easter Crowds

VERY TRUE!!!! You could find her a mile away

 

[safetymom]

Please discontinue the discussion of the skirt. Some of the comments are hurtful and that is not what the DIS is about.

The weather was fantastic. I cut off all the freeze damage from my hibiscuses (or is the plural just hibiscus?) The new leaves are starting to sprout! Of course, today, it is going to turn cold again.

Back on track with GF talk, has anyone taken their children to the storytelling that is supposed to be held at M. Mercantile on Monday nights at 8. I went there and asked about it this month and the two CMs working in the shop said they don't have any such things, only the storytelling with Rose Petal at the Tea Party. I didn't pursue it, or say, "I read it on the DIS!" Just wondering if anyone knows if this is still going on or maybe it is seasonal and not happening when I was there?
Thanks.

WOW! I actually had planned on doing this with SAvannah in June. It sounded cute and we were not going to be in the parks late. I guess I will have to come up with another plan.

I hear you about the hibs... I have 30 so had to trim many of them.... I collect the special designer ones. I lost 4 but they were babies and just couldn't make it. My carolina jasmine decided to bloom this week too I am not complaining because it smells so good but usually my star jasmine blooms first

Currently this is my fav hib I have.... except it hasn't bloomed yet this spring

I thought they still did that story telling as well. I will try and find out and update the thread.

Thanks Kelly, let us know what you find out. I guess I could always resort hop in my jammies

 

[MsStinkerBelle]

I'm still getting caught up on all the posts in this thread.

I'm planning a stay at the GF for Easter next year. Are there any special activities that go on for that? Like easter egg rolls/hunts and whatnot?

TIA!

 

[HMeyers]

called today and got all my ADR'S I wanted ( including LeCellier!!!) . But, for some reason the CM couldn't book Rainforest Cafe at AK. Not a big deal since we belong to the safari club and get seated pretty quickly anyway, but I still wanted an ADR. Is there policy different? Not 180 days?
TIA!!
