Hey, Ann! I thought I'd check in over here to see how Victoria is doing. I hope she's better. Gotta love those nasty bugs that get passed around at school! Not! Fifths Disease is going around at my kids' school. Oh joy. Neither if the kids have gotten it, thank God! Knock on wood and some more stuff! Anyway, I hope she's doing better.
I also thought I'd mention, since you guys aren't big on veggies, that Garden Grill also uses the fish that is farmed on Living with the Land. Not sure if that is a selling point or not
Actually, come to think of it, I kept that little tidbit to myself because I thought the kids might get freaked out over that. So nevermind... LOL

Now the remaining amount will go into the Disney savings account. Oh, while I was at the Mall, I had arranged to meet someone selling off their Disney scrapbooking supplies off of Craig's list. I got one heck of a deal and I can't wait to use it!!! So that's what's going on over here.......
My oldest is now 20 and finally, she seems less emotional...less cranky... less crazy. She is actually one of my favorite people to be with now. I have my next one about to leave in less than 2wks.... then there is my 15 year old. Yeah... I have a few more years till I stop feeling like I am a horrible failure with him. 
Luckily, I have a 6 year old who is still a joy. 
I cant wait to see some more pages! Also, that Disney jewelry does look really nice! I got a ring from Avon years ago that looked just like an expensive engagement ring, so I really like their jewelry. Since Im watching my pennies until the trip, Ill have to try to hold off on that until later. But I want that necklace!
Im sure Im not the only one who thinks that would be a good idea. After breakfast, we will probably go on the beach there at Poly and lie on the hammocks then take the boat over to MK.
Oh, the shock of such a statement, but its true! Well have to play it by ear for Fantasyland. We didnt really hit that hard last year at all as the construction just made it too congested, I felt. The must dos there are only its a small world (it was closed last year) and Mickeys Philharmagic. I do want to catch the show at the castle, as we didnt do that last time, either. I think Ive said this before that I want to do a whole lot more character interaction this year. Victoria may be too old for it, but Im certainly NOT! 
Even JetBlue is that price. Im thinking of having us drive down to Manchester, NH to pick up a flight from there, but its really not much of a savings and wed have to stay at least one night in NH, probably on the way home. So now Im on Facebook trying to win 2 airline tickets, but thats not looking too good. You would think with all the friends between myself, Victoria and Peter, we could get a whole mess of people to like my wall post on Cheapairs FB page, but it hasnt happened yet. Oh, dont mind me
..Im just whining again! 
That feels good to say!!!
Also, one of my siblings and I both had health issues when we were younger because of things we inherited from our parents. Thankfully we are both healthy now as adults, but I was a very sickly child. Never once did I blame our mom or dad for passing on their genes to us! So don't blame yourself about having health issues on your side of the family. If anything, family health issues have taught me and all of my siblings that we need to work on being as healthy as possible. But none of us understood that as teenagers, so what you are proactively doing with Victoria is fantastic! The Wii Fit is a great idea! I've been thinking about getting that or the Kinect for Xbox for our family so we can get up and move while playing video games. The summer camp idea is also very good. I know for a fact that my kids would sit in the house all summer and play video games and use the computer 24/7 if I didn't make them go outside. What's going on with kids today? I used to WANT to play outside! I guess it is the temptation of all of this technology! 
and feeling so hopeless. He, in typical man form, told me not to cry and that I would make it all work out fine. After about one hour, I decided to put my big girl panties on and start really looking into our options. First of all I looked into flights on Southwest out of NH. Now there’s was nothing good as far as prices for our already booked dates, so I had the system look for flights for the entire month. I found an online special of $77 one way per person. 
I thought well no way was I going to be able to make this work as one flight landed at Orlando at 8:40pm and I just think that’s a waste of a day!! So I kept looking and looking and trying to figure out should we stay the night in NH the night before just to take an early flight, etc. etc. Then I researched the parking garage rates vs hotel parking….blah, blah, blah. I finally decided (with the ok of Peter, but then again, he would probably say ok to ANYTHING I wanted by that point 
Besides, I really only want to unpack/pack once during a trip so I’ve decided that we will be driving. The NH airport is 2 hours 17 minutes away from my house (per Google) so I figure if we leave by 5:30am we should be all set. I really didn’t know how close the airport in NH was to us. 
). I was still not getting my hopes up because hey, it’s free dining, the rooms may be all taken, etc.
