Welcome to the YaYa's: YYotC at Castaway Cay

[alabamaalan]

Good morning Y'all-Y'alls

Lainey, you could always do like we do. Forget reservations, go to a value resort, and take lots of Pop Tarts and Vienna sausages.

Now what were you saying about white trash?

 

[Poohnatic]

Lainey, I'm with you on this one. We fly by the seat of our pants. Guess we'll be eating at the resorts more than at the parks, since we don't typically know a week in advance what we'll be doing.

The table is missing a retainer clip. Part is ordered and the repairman will come back once we get it. I've been extremely impressed with Haverty's all around

Kevin just told me 'belts make the world a better place." He found his. All of his pants are too big or too small, and just doesn't understand that when you're a kid, that's what's going to happen. He's a real prima donna about clothes fitting right.

In my cleaning, I found my coupon for a free movie from DMC. Guess I should pick one out!

Wound up cleaning up and decluttering where Luis' stuff is. Boy is it making a difference Just got back from dinner with Lily, Amanda and a few WISHers. Nice time out and I know Lily got pics

Yuck on another mouse there, Nancy! I hope you don't have to deal with anymore for a while! And I say go for the PPV! I thought it was a cute movie (as did Luis)

LOL, Alan... I already would do the pop-tarts, but don't care for vienna sausages unless they are "cooked" Yes I do eat with them

Suzanne, hope you get your table fixed up! And glad I am not the only one who doesn't like it. I know it says World Showcase only, but I think they are sorely mistaken with this one. I loved to go to sit downs at lunch on a moments notice. Marrakesh was my favorite place to eat as well I hope they change their minds on teh food thing soon!

Not much else going on... probably going to snuggle with my honey and call it a night sicne we lose a nights sleep.

 

[Poohnatic]

Where IS everybody?

 

[kimmar067]

...To help promote the WDW "Pirates of the Caribbean" re-opening in July, the attraction will sponsor a "Where's Jack Sparrow?"
contest. The new Audio-Animatronic figure will be relocated on a
daily basis and hidden in a remote, but visible location. All
guests who spot the "Hidden Sparrow" will be registered to win a
family evening at Downtown Disney accompanied by actor Johnny Depp
himself...

.........

...Also:FREE dining is coming back at Walt Disney World! Yes, for stays starting August 13 - September 30, you can get the Magic Your Way Plus Dining package for the price of a regular Magic Your Way package!

...yup, and I'M GOING......

you suck!!!!! I wanna go but mom said I have to take the kids! I wanna go and have fun!! oh well, there's still november!

Elaine...do they do things differently in Ohio? We only lose an hour of sleep on the east coast...you all lose a whole night's sleep???








You couldn't pay me enough to eat vienna suasage...i gag feeding them to the kids!

Had a nice day here, went to my brother's house for neice's birthday! it was fun but their house is not kid friendly and I'm paranoid about ethan and jar getting into things or touching something they aren't supposed to. So I was a bit tense most of the day! The cakes I made for the party turned out really good. I'll post pictures tomorrow when I have time.

Oh and I talked to the resident ding a ling and she said she had a great day. We are meeting at 1 tomorrow for lunch, sot that will be fun...we can pass around all the hugs!!

Good night gang,
tara

 

[helenabear]

I was snuggling in bed with Luis, Suzanne, not sure where everyone else was Although I did realize we do have a few Ya Yas MIA this weekend due to other reasons... but still...

Have fun planning your trip, Kimmar!

Oh hush, Tara Luis hasn't had a good night's sleep for a while so honestly neither have I (he keeps me awake) He keeps complaining about allergies but won't do anything about them

So... I meant to say hour after not having a good night's sleep the night before

Sounds like you had a nice day though!! Enjoy your lunch with Bethie!!!

We're off to church, then lunch with friends... after that I will probably take it easy or work on the family room some more. Then we have dinner with the family and church again.
I like quiet weekends

 

[Poohnatic]

Morning, all.

Kids are happy, playing the Gamecube they got back yesterday. Neil had been banned from it for months, took it from our closet w/o permission, so it was at my friend's house until yesterday.

We're headed over to stepdad's later. Taking him out for a belated b'day dinner, although he says he's taking US out to dinner, lol.

Uh oh, Ed's watching "Bob the Builder".

Tara, have fun with the resident ding a ling!
Lainey, I don't know what that's like, having someone complain about an issue but not doing a thing to fix it
Alan, pop tarts and vienna sausage? Yuck. My kids are deprived, there are no pop tarts in this house. The temptation would be too great for Neil.

Hope everone has a nice sunny Sunday.

Suzanne

I just thought maybe you Ohioans did things differently.

I'm up and getting ready to hop in the shower to go to lunch. So you guys have a good day!!

[Meriweather]

Hope the walk went well for our walkers.

Have a great time with Beth, Tara.

Elaine sounds like a good day.

Suzanne.

I will be painting all day. The rooms are getting bigger, so it is going to take longer.

 

[helenabear]

Hi y'all! We're in our relaxing mode until we have to go to my sister's in a couple hours.

We did get some things done in teh family room, but it looks like a tornado hit it (Lily did get to see it before we "tore it up") So I am getting happier with it. The hutch is still upstairs But we are making progress.

Wow, that is a smart way to do punishment for the Game cube! I bet the kids were happy to get it back.

How was lunch, Tara!

Good luck with the painting Nancy, I hope it doesn't take you too long!

Have a nice day everyone! I might not be back until tomorrow

Just finished......going to take a shower and do some laundry.
I will put the room back together tomorrow. I have decided I am getting too old for this My back and shoulders are screaming.....and I couldn't move the stereo by myself

Hope everyone is having a much funner day than me......but I see movies in my afternoon

 

[isyne4u]

Hi gang,
Back from lunch with Beth and Dave and some shopping. We had a nice lunch at Applebees and chatted for almost 2 hours! Ethan did make a grand entrance however, about 15 minutes before we arrived he fell asleep. When i woke him up and took him out of the car seat I stood him up on the pavement where he promptly did a face plant. I forget that when he first wakes up he lacks balance...about 20 minutes later we realized he had a big bruise on his forehead and then a scratch appeared on his nose. So poor kid took a beating. But I do have to say that Jarrod was a good kid. He didn't make me threaten him with bodily harm once!!

After we got home I went out to Michael's and AC Moore to use some coupons I had. Got me some stickers, a refill for my sticker maker, and a new set of sizzix letters. Pretty cool stuff.

Now I think I'm gonna wake mom up and see if she is up for some scrabble!!

Have a great afternoon all!!

tara

 

[kimmar067]

you suck!!!!!

...Elaine...do they do things differently in Ohio? We only lose an hour of sleep on the east coast...you all lose a whole night's sleep??? ...

Hi, Honeys, we're home!! Had a wonderful time at the bell festival--stayed in an Embassy Suites hotel that felt like a Disney resort. Our 2-room suite faced the 10-story atrium and it was just sooooo like looking out over the lobby of the WL or AKL. Fantastic free buffet breakfast and manager's reception (happy hour) daily--really nice to relax with a free glass of wine or 2 before dinner!!

Lunch with Tara was a blast, as usual. LOVE those folks!! We all had our cameras with us and not a single pic was taken. Can you believe it??!! But big hugs were exchanged and we ate enough for all of you.

Suzanne, sorry to hear Kevin was feelin' poorly yesterday--hope he was better today! Gotta agree on the smart move in placing the Game Cube OUT of the house. Sneaky little buggers always seem to be able to find the hiding place when you take a favorite toy away. How's YOUR recovery coming?

Liz, the Accord is SUCH a nice car!! I think leasing is an excellent idea for you, but I understand the dilemma with the house loan. Sounds like being without a car for work is going a long way toward helping you get to know your co-workers better, though. Way to go, finding another Disney fan! Soooooo cool to get the call from John Bingham!!!! What did he say about his shirt??!!

Nancy, this last 6 months or so have shown me quite a few things I am now getting too old for, too! Frustrating as heck, isn't it?! Darn body just doesn't want to cooperate. Hope you've been able to just take it easy and relax those sore muscles. E-town sounded good--did you decide to watch it?

kimmar, that pic was just beautiful!! He may be E's cabana boy, but I sure do like to look at 'im--never too old for that!!

And that goes for Disney, too, Auriel!! NEVER too old for Disney. Might not walk as far or do quite as much any more, but don't think I will ever lose my love for the magic.

Hope you can get some sleep tonight, Laine! I know how this silly time change always affects you and I have to admit, I don't particularly like it, myself. Morning just comes too dang early, now!

Lily and Amanda--where are the pics??!!! Looking forward to hearing about the marathon soon!

Laundry calls.......and I really need to get some foot elevation time. Bare concrete floor at the bell festival didn't do my knee any good, I'm afraid. Can't ring bells sitting down, either.

 

[Poohnatic]

Evening, honeys!

Opened Neil's strattera tonight and OOPS, only one pill left...so I had to go fill it at 9pm!

Went to Macaroni Grill with Stepdad. Caught up on a lot of happenings. Big news is that he's looking to move back to NY sometime in '07. Gonna miss him, but we're the only ones down here and step sis and younger sis and their families are up there. He's going to hate the cold. I had to drum into his head that if it got too cold, there's a bedroom at my place.

Waiting for my offer package...and I'm not too good at saying I can wait!

Bethie, I hope you took a nice soak (and that the water heater cooperates!). Glad they gave you the presidential suite!

Tara, hope that Ethan's boo boos go away soon. Yikes, that sounds like something I would do!

Kim, you haven't run it by DH yet?

I'll check back in the morning. Hoping I get a phone call!

Suzanne

 

[helenabear]

Very quick hi... tired... mad love to you all! Catch up tomorrow

 

[Poohnatic]

Can't sleep. Ugh, this always happens after surgery! Although there's more going on than the post anesthesia insomnia!

I got my offer package! I meet with the owners later today (eep, need sleep!) to go over it. It's more aligned with a restaurant GM's compensation package. The numbers look good and the goals achieveable, but the base is a little less than what I make right now.

I have to take a leap of faith on this. I'm not a risk taker where this stuff is concerned-but I am this time! Heck, I've been figuring out ways to generate business and what the flyers should say. I may even play with the publisher in my sleepless state and bring them to the owners tomorrow, lol!

Morning!

Had to get up at 4:30 and take Junior to work! No baby today and the boys go back to school, so maybe I can get a nap in.

Had a busy, but fun weekend. Sat. was my nephew's 1st b-day party.

and mad love to all. I'll hopefully ketchup soon!

 

[believe]

Morning...

No pictures from me. My camera stayed in the car. I do know that Lily took plenty. As did Pat that is on the WISH board. It was a very nice day! The weather was cold at first, but was perfect for walking. Thanks for everyone sending prayers on the rain, no rain at all.

Sherry....take a nap for me

Have a great day everyone!
