Hi All....we're back from brunch and had a wonderful time. The atmosphere and food was perfect....but the bubbly was the best part! Here's the pics.

The building we had brunch in:

Another building on the grounds. It was a huge place with many buildings, but not all the pics came out clear.

Here's the scenery from up there:

Deb, Looks like you are having a wonderful time. What is the weather like?

 

[disneylover5]

Deb, By the way, I have not been on DIS much, but I love your tag!! How cute is that? How long have you had it?

Here we all are....me John and the kid:

CHEERS! As a true Champagne Girl we ordered a bottle of Korbel Brut. It was so good.

They heard us do a cheers to me for my birthday so they brought me desert with a candle and sang happy birthday. We didn't ask them to do this so it was nice.

We didn't take pictures of food, but I had a scone, fruit, quiche, bacon, turkey croquet, hashed brown potatoes and a vanilla cake with coconut cream frosting. I brought the cake home with me because I was full. I also brought home a half of a bottle of champagne. Cake and bubbly are my snacks for football today. Ummm Good!

 

[gaylean93]

Deb, you brought home half of the third bottle, right

 

[gaylean93]

You don't have brunch places where the champagne is included? We do here. Most of them are Mexican food but there are a few that aren't. They lose there money with me We had a regular waitress at one of them but she doesn't work there anymore She would leave the bottle sometimes but when when she didn't she never let the glass go empty. We are friends now and we call each other. Guess what, her name is Cindy

Hey Cmon, I drank it all by myself after we drank the champagne that came included with the meal. It's ok, I'm still drinking.

 

[gaylean93]

The air just kicked on. It is 92 today. The thought of feet pajamas is

Phew, I thought you were all talk for a minute there

We are listening to old music and Suicide Solution is playing now

Deb, Looks like you are having a wonderful time. What is the weather like?

Thanks so much Lisa. We miss you!!! We did have a very good time celebrating my birthday on Tuesday.....I'm just starting early.

It's winter here for sure. It's freezing, windy, dark and wet. It's a low of 38 degrees with a high of 47 and with the wind chill it's currently 32. Cold!

Deb, By the way, I have not been on DIS much, but I love your tag!! How cute is that? How long have you had it?

Thanks Lisa, I love it too. I've had for about a week or two.....very recent. I just got lucky.

 

[EllaEnchanted]

Nope, just finished eating and it was time to go.

Have you noticed that I put one of the same pictures in twice when I was posting them? I did and I'm not deleting it. It's the Cheers one with the Korbel.

Only one glass of champage was included and it was really too sweet for me. I still drank it, but then I needed more and wanted the kind I like.


So THAT's where you got the name Cindy?.....hahaha.....just kidding. We had to pay extra for the bottle of bubbly, but that's ok coz we got to keep it. It will be empty very soon.

Nope that's not where I got the name but it did help us become friends. The champagne we usually get is sweeter too which I think is weird. It seems like most people wouldn't get more if it were dry. Well except people like us that like it. I'm glad you are having fun. We are doing chores. I did poor a glass of wine but it seems to be getting warm because I am working soooo hard.

Hi everyone,
Gee, I'm all caught up...on this thread!

Happy birthday, Deb! It looks like you had a nice birthday brunch. Hi to everyone else (I won't name names because it's very likely I'd leave someone out accidently and I don't want to slight anyone!).

I was just reading about the wildfires this morning. I hope everyone continues to be OK. Isn't the smoke bothering you, though? We have controlled burns up here, some more coming this week, and the smoke is very aggravating to lots of people (including me).

Today is gorgeous, bright blue sky and in the high 60s, maybe even 70 by now. You can't beat AZ for beautiful weather! I'm mentally sending some sunshine and warmth to all who need it!

Last week was my youngest sister's 50th birthday. Her friends had a dinner for her so I went down. I was also asked to make a video/DVD for the party, which I did. It was fun to go through the old photos. Interesting that some are talking about backing up photos. I, too, have an external HD always connected to my computer and just last night updated the backup of my photo library. I have some of my photos also backed up to CD/DVD, but not all. I don't have my PC photos on DVD because there's almost 10 GB of them and I haven't taken the time to figure out how to divide them up and burn them. Bad me...

The external drive also holds my iTunes, since it's so big. So I'm having a bigger hard drive put in my computer next week. It has a 250 GB but I'm having a 750 GB installed. I was looking at 500, but the price for a 750 was what I thought the 500 would cost so I went for it.

My cruise/WDW trip is just over 2 weeks away! 3 weeks from today we'll be on board the Wonder! I can't believe it's so close. It's like our PC trip, it seemed so far away for so long and now here it is! I think it's going to be so fun to experience the ship with my friends who haven't been before. On the other hand, I'M going to experience WDW for the first time!

There's so much I want to see and do on this trip and I know I won't be able to do it all. I can start to get a little crazy if I let my mind start running...

Economically, this is not such a good time to be taking this kind of trip, but OH WELL! Who knew, even a couple of months ago, what it would be like now??? The cruise is paid for, most of the rest of the trip is paid for now (just got my WDW ticket in the mail the other day). Good for you, Jackie, making the big CC payment! I'll be doing that this month, too. My sisters and I have agreed to not exchange gifts this year and I can start economizing in 2009!

As I was going through my photos, preparing to back them up, I was overwhelmed by all the blessings I have! Just in this last year, our wonderful TOAL, the DisMeets, Ian & Sukie's wedding, the camaraderie of all of you...I'm getting teary thinking of it. It's coming up on 2 years that we've known each other! Sept. 2009 will be here before we know it! And hopefully I'll get to see some folks when I'm in FL next month. *sniff*

Guess I'll post this now...hope everyone has a beautiful Sunday. I'm going to see the new James Bond movie in a little while.

Happy Early Birthday Brunch Deb!! You really looked beautiful!!

To Cherie, Jackie and Lisa (And Kathe too if you are listening), you guys including me at your table on the WB repo really made the cruise for me. I looked forward to seeing all of you every day! I wish I was going on the Sept. cruise but because of my teaching schedule, I can't. But if I could, I would be there so quick!
