My next definite trip isn't for 2 years so I understand! But hopefully I can squeeze in one in 2010! Or I might croak! I'm already going through withdrawals!

 

[aaaateamsgrandma]

Connie, have a great weekend. Hope things go well for you tomorrow. It is not easy I know. I put Austin's new proofs on my thread. I am going to go eat lunch, yes I'm late and then do housework before the game.

Enjoy the rest of your day my friend.

We went to eat seafood tonight ;ymmmm!(didn't have to worry about the older kids--Ashton slept through the entire meal; woke up as we were leaving--so we had to stop and pick up something for him) we went to the new Target while walking around I asked Ashton what did he want to dress as for Halloween (thought I had found a robe for Sorcerrer (sp) Mickey no luck! )...ready for this answer



Ashton Martin too cute!!

Gwendolyn has been texting all night...
she has decided she loves us after all Joe's brother (who is her age is driving her nuts), Joe's sister and boyfriend became engaged last night (which Gwendolyn thinks was tacky that he did it on the weekend of her brother's wedding). She said she is not comfortable around his family at all--she does not like their ways
and here she thought she did not like being around us

Night all! have a wonderful weekend...
stay warm Ginny!!!

Your story about Ashton wanting to be Ashton reminds me of a Halloween when Tyler was about 3. Amanda wanted to be Raggedy Ann and Tyler said he wanted to be a bunny. I bought all the stuff and got them ready, putting on the makeup and the costumes. Amanda was too happy. She thought it was funny how she looked like a doll. When I put Tyler in front of the mirror he started crying and screaming to the top of his lungs............................."GET THIS BUNNY OFFIN MINE FACE". I almost wet my pants. I don't mean to sound cruel, but it was the funniest thing to me that he actually thought he was turning into a bunny.

Ok enough about how bad a Mother I am. Boy, could I tell some stories about Tyler..............

That is great. Ashton Martin. I love it. Little ones are so darn cute.

Also great about Gwendolyn. Sometimes it takes this sort of thing for them to realize what they have isn't so bad. And that's a good thing. It also may open her eyes what's ahead. It's hard to separate one from family. Seems like they always fall back into that which they know.

Poor little Tyler. I bet if you told him that now the big boy who is almost 21 he would just flip. I love little ones thought processes.

You girls were up way too late.

Have a good day. I'm on to housework

That story is so cute!!! this mind of a three year old is going to make me bonkers!!!! my sweet child has become a whinning nighmare he whines all the time...he doesn't like chocolate milk anymore, all he wants is "tool-aid" (so, I lace it w/Apple juice--saw me do this won't drink the tool-aid,now) wants to help me cook, wants to choose the televsion program, etc...independence is trying to rear an ugly head here

I'm thinking of either converting his last year Peter Pan costume to Robin Hood (everyone thought he was Robin Hood anyway! )or just a halloween t-shirt and letting him be Ashton Martin!!

 

[longing2Batdisney]

Danny and I have been talking over the weekend! As many of you know we have to go to the this summer!!! I was part of the agreement of going back to Disney...well he tells me Friday; let's just put off Disney for a year or two NOT GOING TO HAPPEN!!!

So, I pull out the big guns....

well, you know if we go in Nov like I planned; I get to see it for Christmas and you and Dayne can do the Petty Driving Experience (surprise spoiled ) BUT, back on track!!!!

So, we are going November 2010!!! the week after Christmas;
I am planning ALL THE BIG PARKS in the area!!! all four WDW, US/IOA, and Seaworld!! and Danny and (hopefully) Dayne will be going to the "Richard Petty" Driving experience!!! and as I mentioned before we are going to add DDP to our trip (SO, maybe we will get lucky and free dining will be offered again next year!)

so, our plans for 2010!!!!
June--FWB
Aug---FWB
Nov--- DISNEY and other parks!!!

I would like to add a road trip to Memphis in the spring to see their zoo! ladybugmom lives there and posted her pictures from a recent trip; and here I thought Aud Zoo was awesome...they don't have anything on the Memphis zoo from what I can see! I had thought about getting an AP to the zoo and aquarium but I may plan a trip to Memphis instead!

I really hope I'm not over planning on our limited vacation budget and I really hope Gwendolyn doesn't try and get married this year (I don't think so, I really think her eyes were opened about him and his family this weekend!!!and she has some thinking to do! )

Sorry! I know repeating old info but I came close to losing it...I can't wait to book my dates so I can say it is officially done!
Later!

 

[aaaateamsgrandma]

Yay, good plans for you. That is so exciting that now Danny is on board. I hear what you are saying about Gwendolyn.

Now that Don says he is going to retire next December I know no vacay for us. So that means we can't meet at FWB. I'm taking the money I was spending and getting his work shop done. It has to be done before he is done working or he will be bored stiff and I would never retire. We know that's not going to happen.

I'm making meat loaf for dinner and fresh homemade rolls. They are smelling delish.

I'll try to catch you later.

Give my Peter Pan a late day hug and kiss.

Ginny

Peter Pan went spend the afternoon at mom & dad's. We brought him during half time; I am suppose to be frying shrimp...a last hoooorah to start our diet...I have never been this heavy in my life! Danny said I need to get off the computer (which he is right!!-I need to cure my addiciton )

Just finished watcing the Saints game; Danny went out to cut the grass! so I thought I would come on for a quick visit! Still waiting for Gwendolyn & Joe to get home...they should be pulling up any minute...

your menu sounds delish...homemade rolls how awesome that would be divine with my shrimp!!

 

[mickeystoontown]

Hey Connie,

Sorry I haven't been around the last few days. Been really busy. I know that you wanted to keep the Richard Petty driving experience a secret but sometimes you have to pull out the secrets in order to make things happen. At least, you know your vacation schedule now!

Have a good one,

Lisa

I would love to have shrimp. That is my all time fav and crab legs. Aust just called to get the menu to see if he had a better offer elsewhere. He decided he would come. What a kid. Diets start here too. But not a week from Monday since Sandi is coming this weekend. I am making homemade cinamon rolls next weekend. Yummo.

Glad your little girl is almost home.

Hey Lisa, Hope you've had a good day too.

I heard Carribean Beach Club is very nice. I might try to stay there next time. It is not too crowded and not too too hot the ending of September\beginning of October. No rain; it only misted for about 20 minutes one day with the sun out. It cooled us off and it felt good. I would book it around Columbus Day Weekend as it is crowded then.

 

[Glite]

Oh, forgot to mention. The value resorts will only let you have 4 per room; you would have to either get 2 rooms next to each other or upgrade to a Moderate Resort.

Thanks! Glenn
we are leaning toward a mod!! CBR is on the very top of my list...I need to find out if they have king beds available?!?
and yes, if all of us go we need two rooms...that is how we did it in May ASSp we were suppose to have adjoining rooms but it was not meant to be...it was not bad we were on the same floor and in the same bldg.

 

[leamom2princesses]

Hi Connie! Hope you've had a nice weekend. I'm glad you talked Danny into going next year. Wish you didn't have to unveil the secret but if that's what it takes to lock in on your trip then so be it.

Have a good night! Joe is going back to his normal schedule tomorrow so I'll have more time to DIS now.

 

[Glite]

You probably did already, but if not, go ahead a booked it and put down a deposit or pay it. That way DH can't change his mind about going.

Don't you just love it when you can't do anything right anymore ? Tyler and I was BIG buddies until he got to be about 6. Then he became the child that has to argue about EVERYTHING, and he is still that person . Dallas still is my buddy and I hope that never changes.

I would do the same with the costume. Even though I was suppose to be a witch at MNSSHP everybody thought I was a pirate . I'm not too sure what we are going to do for halloween this year.

 

[princess_momma]

Oh I wonder if I can schedule my 2010 trip for when you are down there! November would be perfect! Thats when Landon's birthday is!

 

[longing2Batdisney]

Kimmy that would be awesome!!! if you could plan you your trip same time we go!!!

I am so excited that we will see it for Christmas!!! if you do maybe we can plan a meet when the guys go do their driving experience!

 

[aaaateamsgrandma]

Good morning Connie. Yes, I checked. It still is. Late moving this morning. Made it to work on time just not motivated now that I am here. We have sunshine. 2 whole days now. We might get spoiled. I think it is to hit 76 today. Don turned the furnace on yesterday morning. It was 52 in the house. Now we usually keep it 62 in the winter but 52 was a bit nippy. I wish I were home now. I'd open all the blinds and windows and fill my house with fresh air.

Hope you have a really great day.

Give my main squeeze Peter Pan a big hug and kiss.

Ginny
