Nice beach house. Not a disney fan either. We went Christmas week. I would have rather been in the Bahamas.

My oldest son works at Disney so we end up there a few times a year. It would be OK if they would go off on their own and let Dad and I just stroll, but they think we all have to be together and it is like a footrace all over the parks to get from one popular ride to the next.
He just opened the new ride at Animal Kingdom, Expedition Everest which is a roller coaster, so I'm sure we'll have to go so hubby and the other 2 boys can ride it...just glad I don't have to pay when we go!!

Your dad was right! I kept journals for my kids when they were little, but I didn't write near enough. sometimes when I look back at them I can't even remember the story as I read it!
Here is my favorite one of my kids:
When Kevin was in 4th grade he and Megan (2nd grade) wanted to walk home from school.. It's only about a quarter of a mile and there are crossing guards at the busy street, so I said yes. I warned them that they had to cross at the crossing guard station, no where else. Well, they made it home alive, I asked how it went and heard "fine". The next day I saw the crossing guard and she tells me how my kids scared her to death because she saw them cross the busy street a couple of blocks away. I went home and was going to kill my son. I said "Why didn't you go up by the crossing guard to cross Main St." Well, they made the street one way so that cars didn't go past the school on that side, and my kids didn't go up that street because "Mom, we wanted to go that way but the sign said DO NOT ENTER"

YEA all we need is the address and the date!
We can have a party when they go to Disneyworld!
You know she's going to need company, it would be
a shame if we let her stay all by herself.

Oh...talking about bodyparts, can't believe I forgot this one. My Mom had her leg amputated and had a prothesis. One day she had gone to rehab, and had the prothesis in the backseat of her car. On the way home she saw a friend out working in their yard, so she stops to talk to them. She is sitting in her car with the door open and the friends 4 yr old granddaughter walks over and looks at her and says "Where is your leg?" my Mom says "It is in the backseat" The little girl just says OK and walks away like that is normal!! It was so funny.
When Mom passed away, we were cleaning out her house and she had 3 prothesis at least (don't know why, she never wore any of them, she could get around better in a wheelchair) anyhoo...we tried to talk the grandchildren into keeping them and making a table out of them for the dorm rooms so they would have something to remember Nanny by! Needless to say they said "NO!" (yes my whole family has a odd sense of humor)

LOL, back then you got spankings, today they just take away your smilies

I'd rather have the spanking...remember when I got too old for spankings...first restriction...I thought...just spank me, get it over with so I can go outside My mother used to use the paddle from that paddle ball game. We'd throw it away....she'd bring another in from the next trip to the store....snatch that elastic and ball right off...won't be needing those My father would swear we NEVER got spankings...he was delusional....every night at dinner....TWO people got spankings. One for mis-behaving and one for laughing cause the other was gonna get a spanking
