You know...I really think that is a bunch of hooey...a hurt ankle is like a sick visit...would they make him wait two weeks for an earache?QUOTE]
I agree...I think they do what they want
Linda: Wow Kenny got $100 from his grandma for Xmas? Lucky boy! My grandma still gives me $10, $5 for my birthday. Actually on Xmas she sends $30 for me and the girls but she still sends it to my mom - and she's the one always telling my mom she needs to let me grow up! Oh I'm sorry that you don't know what Kenny did for Thanksgiving. I hate not knowing what my kids are doing, I feel like I should know everything they do all the time! It was very hard for me when Lyzzie started daycare, because suddenly she was gone all day and I had no idea what she was doing or learning. Wow your trip is coming up really soon!
Lyzzie is coming down with a cold, at dinner tonight she even said she was going to stop talking because it hurts her throat too much. That lasted about 40 seconds!
I tricked Lyzzie a good one
sorry you lost your post!
yeah, mom does something different every year. a few years ago she gave me $200 toward the Harley motorized motorcycle for him... he loved that! She doesn't buy for anyone but the 4 grandkids all year...that is cool. like we need anything at all anyway. we tell her to save her money! even our kids don't want for much. I tell her to get something much smaller but she don't listen. stubborn!
she stopped talking for about 40 sec!
wow, that was an awesome trick! she'll LOVE it!!! that is so cool!
Nathan did say that since he had a chance to just sit and watch the team play, he noticed all the things they were doing wrong.
His ear is much better and he made it through school just fine yesterday.
I keep thinking I need to glue her butt to a chair, but I get a mental image of my 78 year-old mom walking around with a chair stuck on her bottom.
How about some Eggs Benedict from the Yacht Club Gallery?
That is great maybe he noticed some mistakes and can learn from it

I can't wait til Kenny notices things like that too

glad his ear is feeling better. Now a pic of your mom w/a chair glued to her bottom would be hilarious! Glad her leg is feeling better ! wow thanks, that looks fantastic!
She says she's going to stop working after the holidays and is planning on watching the baby.
Linda, wow $100 for Kenny! At least he was willing to lend it. My little brother refuses to let anyone even see his money. He locks it up and then asks other people to buy him stuff.
I am ready to scream at Mike's company.
On a good note, I am loving all the Rainforest baby stuff I am finding. The only thing is that I already decided on Disney/Star theme, so I can't get the bedding. I do think I will be getting some accessories though. The Rainforest stuff reminds me of Rainforest Cafe and that's kinda Disney, right? It could also be AK related.
oh that is too cool! I would have loved it if my grandma could have watched Kenny! But...do YOU plan on her watching the baby! Its funny how others just start making plans on their own
Oh, he's not stingy....he knows better! I'd kick his little booty!
total bs w/Mikes company

yeah, like he's sitting at home

I feel for you guys. I'd seriously loose it on them!
Oh..where is the Rainforest baby stuff??? that would be so cute!!! Definitely Disney/AK related!! Very cool!
Well my January trip is a no-go.
sorry lyzziesmom...but it sounds like it wouldn't have been as much fun w/them all coming anyway. some people just don't "get it"
we leave in 17 days

I'm so excited!!!
Now I'm trying to decide if we should fly. Kenny REALLY wants to fly. He doesn't remember ever flying... and I found some incredible rates...would only be maybe $500...but decisions decisions....its so nice having our own car...but that 16 hour drive UGGG!!! we'd spend probably $250 in gas...
there was something I was wanting to tell you guys...what the heck was it
oh...Sat. night we went over to our friends to play cards. Her dh had to leave Sunday for Afganistan

so...we sat around and had a blast! I'd never played screw your neighbor before

and left, right , center.... we had so much fun. there were 15 of us all together. the men play poker and stuff like that...and us women played dice and a few card games...they were drinking like crazy...I only had one. I'm not a big drinker. Esp. going from one kind to another...watch out. I'd be sick instantly! but we laughed so hard and carried on 1/2 the night. I wish we all lived closer! that would be so much fun. Maybe if we have a Cedar Point meet
