Where are all the Louisiana WDW lovers? UPDATED 1ST POST WITH DATES!

For all of you: We are driving to WDW in August and I am trying to come up with some new ideas to pass the hours upon hours of drive time. I have a 12 year old son and a 22 year old daughter (who loves to play games with her brother....bless her heart:lovestruc) We'll have a portable DVD player so that'll help pass the time and they each have an MP3 player. Just looking for new ideas. Can anyone help?

what about the nintendo DS or playstation version... I believe both are set up so you can play games at the same time against oneanother. My DD21 loves the brainteasers until DS16 beats her scores --lol. They have both always loved mariocart together but I have never seen them play alone or with others (must be there game). If I think of anything will let youknow. I had not even thought about their entertainment:guilty:; too busy thinking about DS2.
**Oh! by the way I finally posted a few pictures, thanks for your help**:yay:
 
Jefferson....or maybe Plaquemines in Belle Chasse. We don't have housing yet.
Belle Chasse has a lot of really nice subdivisions. Good Luck with the housing... you may want to do a little research of areas to stay away from... things are different since Katrinia... Jefferson Parish and Orleans are great places...but, some of the surrounding parishes are a little nicer...like St. Charles Parish and St. Tammany have excellant public schools if you have a family...
love the area have family in each of the above parishes all are great with a little research
 
Hi everyone!:flower3:
As you can see by my ticker we have plans to go at the end of September. Plans may change, now that my boys will be going to a parochial school next school year. This will be the first time paying tuition other than daycare.:eek:
I've already warned the boys that we may need to cancel. I think DH is most disappointed. Oh, by the way, we are from Hammond.

which para school have you decided upon? DS2 has a few years to go but I don't think he will be attending CCS. I believe we will be looking into a para school, or private school. The funny part is we moved to Ponchy to use the public schools and get away from paying tuition. Not impressed with the reconstruction of the tangi public schools.We are thinking about St Joseph or Lake Castle in Madisonville.
 
Umm...Hi! :wave2:

I'm not a DIS newbie but I'm going to be a Louisiana newbie soon!

30 day mark, huh? :cool1: That is going to be fun! So you're going May 24? Are you going to be out of school by then?

We've got our kids in Holy Ghost. I've heard great things about St. Joseph b/c it's a small community school. Good luck. I totally understand the stress of picking a school even though your DS is only 2.
 
I know alot of families at Holy Ghost; great school. St Joseph is suppose to be back on the upswing since they replaced the administration.

Who put that schedule? The last day a HALF day on a MONDAY? And isn't that Monday Memorial Day? Why is there school at all? :confused3

We get out June 26....44 more school days. :headache:

So today I booked a moving truck!! :dance3:
