Who here is not in the "clique" like me? Part 3

[lyzziesmom]

Darn, I just lost a long post. Anyway, I'm so excited... my best friend who I met when we were 14 just called me, we lost touch about 4 years ago and it was so nice to talk to her again! She married her longtime boyfriend and just had a baby 2 months ago - it had been so long that they didn't even know I had Emma! I think the last time they saw Lyzzie, she was about the age that Emma is now. Wow.

Linda, those pictures look great! I love the one of Kenny and Emma - I took almost the exact same picture! Wasn't that so cute when they were in with the stuffed animals? Sadly I will not be doing a Disney cruise this year, so I'll have to live through your pix for now.

Well I need to see if I can get these kids to eat something, I think Lyzzie is getting what Emma has too because each of them has eaten a grand total of 1/2 a yogurt today - combined. The poor things. I need some of Lesa's soup!

 

[MI mom of 3]

omg I'm laughing so hard I'm crying!!!

Well, I have to tell you about the cigarettes. My mom called today and he had to proudly tell his story about telling everyone about throwing her cigarettes away... and retold everything he told you guys at dinner. Then she told him that there really wasn't dog poop in the trash that she just didn't want him to throw her cigarettes in the trash. He got ALL upset b/c then that meant that SHE made him lie to everyone about the poop ohhhh that child... my stomach hurts from laughing so hard at him!

Poor Kenny...he lied without knowing it!! That child has more personality than any kid his age I've seen in a long time!! Did I tell you that when you were checking out Lesa and I went outside to say goodbye to Kenny and Mike. I asked Kenny if I could take his picture because I hadn't gotten to take many...he says, "yes, I know" and posed

Oh NOT good... he peeled those stickers off and CRIED!! He was so mad stomping around looking for those stickers to throw in the trash... it was funny. They just look so cute on!! I'll have to wait awhile b4 he wears them again to forget they hurt peeling off

As soon as I saw the picture with the eye stickers I knew that it didn't turn out well. He kept talking about how much they hurt the last time he had them on. Sometimes we have to suffer to be beautiful!!

Please tell Master Kenny how wonderful it was to meet him.

 

[MI mom of 3]

I think he cleans up pretty nice too I'm sure you heard about me playing w/his butt I told Kenny to drop and he says "she wants me to do them" and he dropped and did them then he told me to tell you "he did them" omg!! This child kills me. Angel he has you fooled j/k. He is a great kid! Him and his "teasement's"

Now you have to tell Mike that you told the butt story...I never mentioned it!!

YM...I'm glad I could help you remember your license.


The boys didn't have really good winter coats this year...mainly because they are teenage boys and are too cool for them. Well after skiing last night they realized that they need the coats so we had to go to the mall today to get them each a new coat. Luckily they are on sale this time of year. Of course the selection wasn't great in their sizes but they each found one that they liked. Matt had to get new ski gloves also. Then a trip to Costco, then Blake needed a haircut...man it's good to be home

Lesa...did you check out the trip report from the Disser who got to stay in the castle Monday night? She has some pics up now. Her teenage daughter is wearing your Mexico jacket. Remember when you are done with it, I have dibs!!!

 

[MI mom of 3]

2x....I'm thinking...so how often do you think we should plan these convention'ears....I'm mean flowers and compliments from clients!

Michele...I left my drivers liscense in my backpack and didn't think to put it back until I read your post and looked in my wallet at work and it wasn't there. Glad your DH and boys came home in one piece. My DH wants to take a family trip sking....I'm like not yet.

If you guys are going again...sign me up!!! I'm ready right now!! Look I'm practicing!!

I don't do skiing...cold dry air aggravates my asthma really badly. Yeah, that's the reason. It has nothing to do with the fact that I am completely uncoordinated!! Matt was telling me that there was a mom about my age in his lesson so I should be fine, and I should go with them next week. Um, no thanks!!

that is awesome you got to talk to your old friend! How cool!! Thankfully w/email I try to keep in contact w/old friends, but not near as often as I should. I thought the Kenny and Emma ones were just too cute! If you need a DCL fix, let me know...I've got thousands of pix starting in year 2000 when I was pregnant w/Kenny Awww I sure hope Lyzzie isn't getting it now!!!

Poor Kenny...he lied without knowing it!! That child has more personality than any kid his age I've seen in a long time!!

He is something else Mike told me you guys went out w/them. I got to see you for a minute but had to check out. I just wanted to make sure they charged me correctly for the ticket upgrades to non-expiration Kenny will pose for a camera anytime He loves the attention, as if you didn't see that already I'm so glad we got to see you guys before we left. It just wouldn't have been right leaving w/o saying goodbye to any of you We had so much fun I can't wait to do it again!!! Yeah, those stickers were a pain, literally I thought maybe he'd handle it better this time...but NOPE oh well. You'll have that

Oh crap, he just busted me... Mike read your post about me mentioning the BUTT story he's like...hey hey hey...wait, let me read that!!!

Glad the found some new "cool" gear that's too cute!

I'll have to find that TR w/them staying in the castle!!! That is awesome

And the stories.....keep those coming as well!!

Well thank you pozey I'll have to download some more pix. I didn't take near as many as usual. I couldn't find my 6 gig card so I only had 2 256mb cards w/me and was afraid I'd run out of memory is that bad or what!

 

[Tinkerbell_Girl]

Hi everyone!

Donna- Thanks for breakfast!

Ashley- I love your pics! You and your mom look so much alike!

2X- What a sweet BIL!

Lin- That's great the TDS is going to have more adult clothes!
Take a pic of your cake! I'm baking a cake for my class and made fondant for the first time today! (I hate the taste of Wilton fondant.) It came out decent.

Linda- I love the pics of Kenny Sparrow and of you and Mike! Teasement- So cute!

I want to hear more stories and see more pics too!

 

[lindakmonty]

Here are some of Kenny w/the characters...

 

[lindakmonty]

The Disney Wonder and the Flying Dutchman

Kenny being silly as usual

a VERY windy day in Nassau! I would have stayed on the ship all together but Mike had never been to Nassau before so I took him to the straw market. It was so windy..people were having a hard time walking straight

Kenny being silly again!

this was in Nassau heading back to the ship

 

[mommyintn]

Angela:: Where are you staying for your upcoming trip; I can't remember. We'll have to live vicariously through you and Amber now!!!
Sorry I missed Ben's birthday!!! Happy Belated Birthday Ben!!!

Donna we'll be staying at Windsor Hills townhome from March 15-22nd then we check into the POLY for 2 nights! I'm so excited!!! Thanks for the birthday wishes for Ben I need to post some pictures from his party he was so excited about being 4 years old!

You guys are killing me with the Kenny stories!! What a little ham, he'd fit in perfect around here

Linda those pictures from the cruise are great hopefully we'll get to experience that someday soon.

2x2 I'm so glad that you had a great trip and that it's noticeable to those around you, now if we could only get prescriptions from our Dr.'s to go to Disney!! I wonder if my insurance would pay for it?!

Lyzziesmom: It sure is great to touch bases with those old friends, it's almost like you can pick up talking without missing a beat and it feels like it's only been a few days instead of a few years!

Hi YM, Lesa, Ashley, Karen, Lin, Yolanda and everyone else I missed!! Hope you're all having a great weekend.

 

[DonnaLeah]

Linda:: Please tell Kenny he didn't lie at all!!! He only told us what he thought was the truth!! It's still a funny story!! I can tell he's like Nathan....used to being around adults. It's like they're SUPPOSED to keep us entertained!!! They may be right!!!


lyzziesmom: How great that you heard from your old friend!! I hope the girls get rested and start feeling better soon!!


Angela:: It will be nice to have all that space in your townhome!! Privacy AND extra bathrooms are always great!!! Two nights at the Poly!! Being on the monorail will be so great!!

Let me know about the next Cliqueless Meet!!! i'll start saving my money!!

Well the guys want me to go downstairs to watch a little of the race with them. I'll check back later.

you'll have to let us know how your trip goes. I can't wait to hear if you like staying at the Poly. As if it can be bad
Yes, Kenny is quite the ham That is too cute Ben is excited about being 4 I didn't take near as many pix as usual... but you'll have that. The weather just wasn't very good. I should go weigh myself. See how much I gained after the cruise we ate way too much. WAY more than usual. But it was SOOOOO good!!! We did the Palo Brunch for the first time. boy was that awesome. The best creme brulee and king crab legs, and shrimp, and steak, and everything else you could dream of!!!

Linda:: Please tell Kenny he didn't lie at all!!! He only told us what he thought was the truth!! It's still a funny story!! I can tell he's like Nathan....used to being around adults. It's like they're SUPPOSED to keep us entertained!!! They may be right!!!

I will tell Kenny you said that I told him that too but he was UPSET w/her He just kills me. You're right, he is so used to being around adults. I'm still laughing about Ohana... him saying "ok everybody, I have to tell you something" They do keep us entertained! I love it that way!!! It does sound like he is like Nathan, being around adults. He sounds like such a sweetheart!!

I just told Mike about the 2 trips a year he said, "I guess you can always see if your x can keep Kenny since he's in school" yeah right!!! I didn't think about that part. DARN IT! Hmmm one trip during school, one trip out of school but if I want to get my rear in nursing school, I better start thinking about that too priorities...

 

[YourMajesty]

Where would we like to go?

Well, YourMajesty, I'm going to attempt to tell one story about Kenny. I may need back-up because I'm NOT a very good story-teller.
Here goes....

Saturday evening was our night to eat at Ohana. Mike and Linda were nice enough to give Ym, 2x2s and myself a ride to the Poly. Kenny had to sit on my lap in the back seat. (We put YM in the middle since she was the shortest. ) Kenny leaned forward and said something to YM; I asked Kenny what he said and he repeated that he thought he needed to pass gas!!! I was cracking up and told him that it had been a while since a little boy did that to me, but I had an 8-year old son......it had happened. He just smiled and giggled and told us it was just a "teasement"!!! So from then on in the trip if we were just kidding about something; we'd say "it was just a teasement"!!
(I may have to let somebody else tell the one about throwing away his grandmother's cigarrettes.)

Donna...one place I wanted to try was the Tangerine Cafe in Morocco....I think it's called a Shawarma platter...that's why there is always a "next" time.

You did a good job with the story. I laughed so hard I almost cried. What added to the humor was Kenny had slightly lifted himself off Donna's lap before his announcement which everyone heard but Donna so poor Donna was a "sitting duck". Good thing Kenny soon "cleared the air" by tell us it was just a "teasement".

If you guys are going again...sign me up!!! I'm ready right now!! Look I'm practicing!!

I don't do skiing...cold dry air aggravates my asthma really badly. Yeah, that's the reason. It has nothing to do with the fact that I am completely uncoordinated!! Matt was telling me that there was a mom about my age in his lesson so I should be fine, and I should go with them next week. Um, no thanks!!

Funny that you mention the asthma. I can't breath in cold air and I get terrible headaches in the high altitude....I'm not looking forward to going. I told DH we need to try spring break when it's not as cold. My DS's asthma is triggered by cold dry air.

Michele...I'm going to post a few more dances for "us" to work on. You never know how soon that next trip might be. I guess we should start sending in those postcards.

Let's dance CHICAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I stole those from our countdown thread...

Welcome back Linda!

Looks like the whole crew is back now!

I LOVE the pictures!! Keep em coming!

And the stories.....keep those coming as well!!

Hey Pozey...I'm going to try to post some pics someday.

Lesa...did the soup help? It seems like February is peak season for winter illness.

If you and your son have difficulty breathing in cold dry air...perhaps a skiing vacation isn't for you I'm thinking a nice beach somewhere I'd be willing to come along, you know to test breathe the air for you; just to make sure it's safe

I like the new dances!! Something new to learn. And just when I was getting the hang of this one The first one might be more difficult, I have no sense of rhthym. The other 2 I think I can handle!

OMG the noises coming from my living room are scaring me!! Nick and Blake are practicing some Kung Fu moves. And I am staying far, far away!! Most of the grunting seems to be coming from Blake. I think I better have 911 on speed dial. He's not as young as he used to be; or thinks he still is

I can't wait to see the pix! You've got me laughing so hard I AM crying!!! omg!!! yes, you're right...there is ALWAYS "next" time

The asthma and not being able to breath sounds so miserable spring break sounds better !!
It was crazy, the further we drove north, I could just feel it in my sinuses! The colder it got, the more it hurt!

Oh...another Kenny story we were driving north...as soon as I saw a decent amount of snow I told Kenny to look out the window...he saw the snow and he says "Yep...we're in OHIO" actually we were in northern VA...but he saw that snow and thought...we gotta be in Ohio!

yeah... test breather..that sounds good

Blake still thinks he's younger and can still take the boys...I think it's a "man thing" 911 on speed dial sounds like a pretty good idea

 

[YourMajesty]

Wow....Angela....I didn't realize you were going back so soon. That will be a long trip. Happy birthday Ben. What "type" of party did you have? My youngest has a birthday coming up. I think we will have a Star Wars theme.

Linda...great pictures.

Donna...what race are you watching?

Hey...I thought you were so nice but offering to come along to test breath the air...goodness girlie you are generous!

[lindakmonty]

well thanks YM I can just imagine when I do break down and buy the dslr camera I really want you guys will be telling me to quit posting them

Oh...your ds's birthday is this week isn't it? Mon. or Tues maybe?

Well the weather was nasty while we were gone...Kenny would have been out of school for 7 days but since they cancelled so much, they only counted 4 If I would have known that I would have stayed down there w/April!!

Donna, were you guys watching the Daytona Nascar show? Mike was flipping between that and the UK basketball game...I've been on here for hours gotta make up for while I was gone as Mike says...get my "DIS fix"

well... I think it's time to snuggle up on the couch for awhile.

Have a great one everybody!

Michele...hope the boys aren't kicking Blakes butt too badly as if he'd ever admit it anyway
