Untitled Hyena Chat thread part deux! - The Continuation

Thats good times right there!!

PARTY!!!


You guys should check out camp 6 at Pt. Defiance... It is a really cool old train/logging museum. They have this old logging thing that is huge, and a real killer i guess.. There are only 2 of them left, and they have one. It really neat. You take a train ride around, and they talk about old logging...

I grew up in a logging town. As a teenager I worked at Lumberjack Pizza. I guess it's sorta interesting to me, but I grew up around that kind of thing, so I guess the mystique of it is a little lost on me. Maybe we'll take a trip up there this spring or summer and check it out though.

People are always checking out our car... It a pretty rare model, so you dont see them very often. And its very pretty.

Cool!

I worked with a lady that was in her 60's, her DH dumped her for a younger woman and she was feeling a bit down. One day a good looking older man in a Mercedes was looking over at her when they were at the stop light. He kept smiling at her and she was starting to think...hmmmm...I wonder if he takes this route every morning. Well he finally turned, but not after smiling & winking at her a couple of times. At the next stop light a lady motioned for her to roll her window down. Seems she wore her tennis shoes to drive in and had left her pumps sitting on top of the car!

Are you sure they weren't checking out the imprint of the coyote on the front grill? JK!!

Just had to take the lawn furniture off the back deck and put it on the back porch. It's supposed to rain tomorrow. I hate this time of year, seems like I drag lawn furniture back and forth, back and forth.

How fun... I cant wait til we have that problem..

We're supposed to go camping next weekend. It's the first race of the season at Washougal. BUT....the weather forecast so far is not looking too good. But it's hard to say since it's so far out. By Wednesday or Thursday they should be able to pretty accurately predict the weekend.

Got my menu & packing list ready. I was going to pack today, but no use wasting my time if it's going to rain.

Indeed... no fun hanging out in the rain!

Have a Great Dinner!

How fun... I cant wait til we have that problem..

Yeah, till you have to lug that stuff back and forth. I guess I could leave it out to rust like everyone else. But bbq's & lawn furniture can get expensive if you have to buy new ones every couple of years.

Indeed... no fun hanging out in the rain!

It wouldn't bother me if it were just DH & myself. I have no problem sitting in the trailer, listening to the rain on the roof, watching a movie, reading a book, just enjoying the quiet. But when you have kids with you it's another story! There are only so many Mad Lib books & Monopoly games you can play until they are bored out of their mind!

We've gone to Battleground Lake & camped when it rains. We just take the canoe out and go fishing in between showers, plus when you hike under big fir trees it doesn't get that wet underneath. But like I said, it's not too much fun to be stuck inside in 25' of space with bored kids.

Think I will go finish up the laundry, get a bath and go to bed. Goodnight Everyone!

 

[Alex2kMommy]

Reading backwards... GEESH! Who is Shawna throwing her bra at???

 

[Alex2kMommy]

Good night, Sam.


Am I the last one left again?

 

[Alex2kMommy]

Okely dokely, looks like everyone is gone before 8:30 pm. Oh, how the mighty hyena evenings have fallen!

Guess I'll sign out then, might check back later. Good night!

[Albort]

new parade tomorrow! yaaaaay! ill be there taking pictures!

 

[AZMickeyfans]

GOOD MORNING HYENAS!

Albort, take pictures for us and post will ya?

Logging town? Oh we dont have that here. Guess if you chop down a Saguaro its not good for much! Not to mention illegal.

So, the dance studio did the same spring break as another school district so we do not have dance this week! Next week is our spring break. So I was kind of bummed but now we have 2 easy weeks ahead of us. Its going to be GREAT!

So advice needed here. IF we head over to DL with the cousins Jeff told me to buy AP's for the kids and I. Well, thats over $780.00 AND I'm positive when we dance in June it will be on a Saturday so it will be blocked out. I can get Magic Music days for pretty cheap. Its like $90 for a 2 day park hopper. And I will have to buy a blackout ticket in April. So 2 blackout tickets for me and 2 for the kids is an extra $120 on top of the $780 we initially spent (all not including tax of course). This just doesnt make sense. To go 3 days and spend $900 before taxes on tickets but not be able to go until after the new year again. I would almost rather buy the 1day passes if we go next week and then buy the magic music days. Plus we wont be tempted to run over there this summer and eat away at our WDW budget.

I see Jeff's point because we want to get AP's again next year BUT if we are going on all these blackout dates and probably wont get back there til Feb why not buy them then.

Now I was thinking of buy one in April because I could enter on a Saturday and then it would cost me $40.00 to go in june but I'm even thinking that isnt too smart. We will only be there 1 maybe 2 days in June and not again til Feb.

Good Morning!

I tried Pinkberry's yesterday! Thanks to Pix I knew what to expect. I got a small plain with raspberries. It was good! DBF tried a bite and said "Yeww!" It really does taste like regular yogurt, not sweet at all.

 

[Alex2kMommy]

Good morning, hyenas!
Gray, gray, gray, and a little drippy. Same ol', same ol'.

DS7, as I predicted, was a little hard to wake this morning. When I first tried, he didn't even move, and his breathing barely changed. This was not going to be easy!

But then I took my shower, and was reading emails when DS3 woke and came in for a little morning snuggle. And as I was getting him dressed, DS7 came out of his room, fully dressed!

I must have been a little out of it myself, because I automatically started making two lunches, even though only DS7 goes to school on Mondays. Ah well, now I'm ready for DS3 when he's hungry for lunch.

DH encouraged me to head to Starbucks for a mocha today, but I try not to do that too often, because we used to spend a shocking... no, wait... a SHOCKING amount on that when we were both working. So I try to go only two or three times a week. Besides, that way it's a treat, not an every day thing.

So an International Coffees instant hazelnut for me today.

Hope you in the southern realm are getting some sun today. I miss it! I can't wait to see it again in April!

 

[Alex2kMommy]

OK, I better run. I've just caught up on email, and DS3 just came to remind me that "it's firdy-nine". He just got a cereal box watch today, and is pointing at it like I'm late. Apparently "firdy-nine" is the time to go downstairs and watch Super Y (PBS kids show) with him.

Got piles of laundry to push, too, so best get on that so the boy doesn't have to go commando to school tomorrow.

Hi Sarah, Hi Alex!

Sarah I saw on the other thread that you went to the Aquarium of the pacific. We bought the full priced tickets and were very disappointed.
We had at the time a 180 gallon saltwater tank in our house that we loved. I thought the kids would love the aquarium because of their interest in our own sea life in our house but they didnt. We were all bored and only spent 1 1/2 hours in there and that was probably stretching it. There was this cool aquarium in Chicago right on Lake Michigan that was MUCH BETTER!

Of courst its in Chicago.

Alex, sorry about the coffee. I dont drink coffee. In fact when I was pregnant because I cant stand the smell dh would have to grind and brew his outside. It would make me ill. By the way it will be sunny and 83 here today.
