Hi everyone,
just got back from Epcot for the food and wine festival. My tootsies are very tired!!! It was very good, lots of weird foods from other countries, my oldest son met us there which was nice because I dont see him very often.

Kelly, guess we will see you bright and early that morning. At least they have coffee and pastries in the theater for customs for those who have to arrive early. We always seem to have the early time for customs each time we do the eastern.

well I am off to watch the Magic go past the web cam, I will check back later.

Just saw tahe magic sail past......really makes me want to be on that ship NOW!!!!! But now we are soooo close

Going start dinner in a little while, then I think this evening I will start with getting some of my summer clothes moved into the other room, where our luggage is... Sounds fun.....

Tomorrow morning driving into Chicago to visit my dad and go out to breakfast with him. Thats my exciting plans for this weekend.

Hey wait, next weekend may even be more exciting. I think we are going to start winterizing the yard.....put all the summer patio stuff away....bla bla bla
I always hate doing that because I know that winter is just about here and all that cold and snow....burrrr I hate it.

Ummm Kathy...any extra bedrooms at your place....you may have winter company...

It has mickey curtains, bedspreads, wallpaper borders, clock, curtain rod with mickey hands on each end, disney character pictures on the walls, mickey pirate flag on the wall, Toy story characters decorate the dresser, mickey waste basket, and 3 piece mickey glass jar set on the dresser when I hide goodies for the grandkids when they come.
Your welcome to it!! You even have yoru own bathroom, which I have not got decorated yet, but I will work on it this winter.

Good Afternoon Everyone ,
Today me and DH went out without DS. He was with my in-laws. He was very good. Me and DH missed DS while we were out. It was very weird to not have him with me becuase he always is !! We went to Applebee's for lunch and to the Mall for Christmas shopping. Since we got home I have been of the sofa resting my back. It has been bothering me so much theses last few days. I think it is from lifting DS's infant car seat in and out of my truck!!
Tomorrow my Mom and Dad and sisters are coming for dinner. My Mom and Dad bought DS a Jeep walker. Well the Yankees are LOSING again !! Have a great night everyone!!! Going to make apple pie to get rid of some more apples!!

 

[mom x4 grandma x4]

Lynn,
Hope the pie comes out good.

Not enough posts to day to make our daily quota
Shame on all of us

Ok, tomarrow we need to do some extra posts to make up for this or I will have to get out the WHIP!! It is a long one so nobody is safe, not even me

Not going anywhere tomarrow, so I should get an early start on posting.

Good night everyone,

Kathy

 

[LindaBabe]

Well, we're almost off the page so i had to get up to post!

Lynn, have you tried doing core exercises? They take about 15 minutes and I can vouch for the fact they helped me - the book is The Core Program, by Peggy Brill. (No, I do not get a kickback!)

Our Souper supper came out really good - we had fun and it was easy - with yummy apple crisp and vanilla ice cream for dessert. I wish I had some more right now!

Sleep well, dear friends, and dream of sailing away . . .

 

[mom x4 grandma x4]

Have a good sunday everyone!!!

Kathy

Good morning Nanas!

Where is everyone??? (Besides Kathy!) I actually slept in a bit this morning!

Lynn, sorry about the Yankees. Too bad they couldn't at least take it to the 9th inning of the final game of the Series to make it more exciting. On the other hand -- Tiger fans have to be ecstatic since it wasn't too long ago that their team was in the cellar. (DH is a Cubs fan so you can see where I'm coming from!)

Huskers won last night, but not in a very convincing fashion. They need to start playing better.

Gotta go get breakfast ready. Be back in a bit! Need LOTS of posts today!

Good morning everyone, rise and shine
Today is Sat. so it will probably be quiet on this board today. I find all of your strange eating habits interesting. I"m just not brave enough, maybe on this trip I was forced to eat liver when I was a kid, now that's enough to make anyone want to run away from home.
Does anyone know what scrapple is? I'm not even sure I spelled it right. Hope you can figure it out. I had a friend who ate it all the time and she tried to get me to try it. I didn't like the looks of it so I refused her offer. When I asked her what it was she said she'd tell me after I tried it. Never tried it so I never found out.

Have a great day We are hoping for cooler weather today.
Pat

YEA FOR SCRAPPLE!!!! You're talking my neck of the woods now! Scrapple is best sliced thin, fried crispy and swimming in syrup. Yum. Yum. It's a combiation of meat by-products (for lack of better terms) and pressed into a loaf form which you then slice and fry. No different ingredients than hot dogs. Very PA Dutch.

 

[mom x4 grandma x4]

YEAH!!!!

Finally someone else is up and posting this morning

I was beginning to wonder about everyone.

well I am off to walmart to get DH some pants and red mulch for fixing up the flower beds today. I know he will appreciate that!
I will check back when we return,

Kathy

Good Morning All ,
Today I slept in which was a nice treat since I am up early everyday with DS. Today my family is coming over for dinner. I am making Chicken Parm. Yummy !! Well Kathy my Apple Pie came out really good this time!! DH liked it alot !!! Well I am off to fry up my Chicken cutlets and get DS dressed!! Talk to you all later!!



Cheri: Thanks, but I am glad that the Mets made it at least one NY team is going to the playoffs!!

Linda: Thanks I will have to checck out that book. It's from DS infant car seat to just so heavy for me!!!

 

[fourfoxesinpa]

WOW! 1 month and 2 weeks. That's SO exciting!

The Foxes made our cruise chain last week. We counted the days and made a paper chain with that number of links. On each link we wrote something that we're looking forward to on the cruise. Little and big things like Mickey Bars, Wake Up Call from Mickey, Palo, Rasul (although my kids have no idea what THAT is! ), decorating the door, etc. Then, each morning, we tear off a link. It's fun to see the size of the chain decrease.

I am throwing more things on "the pile" as summer clothes are slowly weeded from drawers and closets. Did the Wal-Mart trip and bought new toiletries so there's no last minute packing. We're leaving first thing in the a.m. after Thanksgiving so there won't be any time for that. I'm tempted to buy new unmentionables for everyone too so I can have the bags ready to go the weekend before.

Ladies, have you figured out formal night? How dressy is everyone getting? I hate to wear the same dress I did last cruise because our pictures will look the same! Our stores don't have the holiday dresses out yet and the summer leftovers are really picked over. I can't find a thing!

For the count, here are 10 nanas...

Need to go pick up DD from a sleepover. JOSH - She's at a friend's house off 796 down your way. I'll wave!

Have a great Sunday all!

 

[woogal]

I'm here Kathy ... barely some kind of front must be coming through and messing with our sinuses for the past couple of days. Oh and we just saw the extended forecast and the "S" word was mentioned for Friday . I'm just not ready for this!

Yesterday ended up being busier than expected ... lunch with Bill's brother (he was in from NJ), dinner with my sister, visited a kennel for Guido, but instead found the PERFECT pet sitter! She's actually a vet tech and has been for nearly 20 years. Both she and the kennel said with him being so old, it would be better to keep him in his own environment at home. So now I need to sit down make a spreadsheet of visits during the week, call in a few favors from friends and family for additional visits, so I'm sure the BABY is taken care of properly! (Did I ever mention he was spoiled???).

Catch up with you later

Now, now. No eluding to Four Letter Words on this Family Board! That is the WORST four letter word I know!!!!!

 

[fourfoxesinpa]

OK, so who's officially linked with Woogal for late dining? I need to tell the other Foxes exactly what they're getting into!

10 more for the cause...

OK, I'm REALLY getting off now to go get DD. Happy Sunday.

Morning All,
Just waking up this morning I still have that nasty head cold and its starting to wear me down. We went to DS school fair last night and had a nice time. Now I am getting DS ready for he and Mike are going to the Saints game this morning. He is very excited since its his first time getting to go to one. I plan to do a little shopping today and then we all head to the fair tonight again.As for formal night I am wearing a black cocktail dress. I have the same dress from last years cruise too plus I wore it on our alaskan cruise so I wanted something new for the pics and really have o use foe another long black dress.
Wendy

PS my shopping is for scrapbook stuff, I really want this new gadget called the Cricket which is like a computer that prints out all these die cuts and letters.

 

[disneediva]

Jaime we afre Woogal linked and so is Bob and Lisa if you go to the online check in at disney cruise. com when you go to the part that lets you put up a credit card you will see a list of people linked together.
Wendy

 

[woogal]

Jamie, I knew you'd understand the significance of the "S" word. I DON'T WANNA WEAR A COAT!

But onto your question ... the late dinner links include (and hopefully I'm remembering everyone) ... Wendy, Bob, Sarah, Tonya, Cheri, Renee, the Four Foxes, and me and da mutt.

Wendy, I didn't know you could see the links online. So you have the whole house to yourself today? Shopping, crafting, girly stuff? I wanna come down and play, too!
