Three Days


THREE DAYS UNTIL WE FLY TO THE HAPPIEST PLACE ON EARTH!!

We have made our reservations for the Yachtsman Steakhouse - woohoo! I am including a picture of the restaurant, but I couldn't find a great one of the aging room, where you can select your own cut of meat!!

Even borrowing a suitcase from Kelly and starting to pack it, I can feel the adrenaline pumping. How lame am I? But you love it. I need to find a scale just to be sure we dont go over the weight limit. Plus I have to figure out what Brad will do for a carry-on bag.

The first thing we are doing is going to the Magic Kingdom, getting our complimentary "Newlyweds" buttons and buying Mickey ears, Bride-and-Groom style. You know you love it.

Four Days


FOUR DAYS UNTIL THE MAGIC!!!
Teehee, still the count-down eager beaver. Gonna do it every day. No sense in pretending I won't.
This picture is of one of the two pools at our resort. This is the Grand Slam pool and, as you can see, it is shaped like a baseball diamond complete with home base.
The percentage chance for thunderstorms has gone down for that week. Most days it is 30% likely it will rain a bit (down from 60%). According to my dad, though, that usually happens. Light showers in the afternoon to cool it off are common, at least from our previous trips. And seeing as how I dont remember it, it must not have ruined our fun or anything. If nothing else it will be a good chance to sit down for a snack/drink.

Five Days


FIVE DAYS LEFT!!!


I bet you are going to get tired of this count down, but it makes me smile every morning, which is sometimes hard to do.


Arrangements are being made for Kelly to "house sit" while we are gone. All she really needs to do is get our mail, but this way she can have a place to herself for a while.

We will take a disturbing number of pictures, so be prepared.

Creepy...

I have these ads on my blog (and if you click on them, I get money!...so...you know...click them please). They form connections to something they find in my blog entries. I recently wrote about my experience with puppets at work, so I have seen several puppet related links. This morning, the link at the bottom of the page (when I checked) just said MARIONETTES.

Not acceptable.

I can handle puppets, generally, but marionettes freak me the fruit OUT! They are unnatural and created by Satan and his evil gypsy women. Have you ever seen "Are You Afraid of the Dark?"; it was on Nickalodeon (sp?) when I was a kid. There was a cree-ee-eepy episode where this evil gypsy woman would con kids into her evil gypsy cart and turn them into tiny, wooden puppets, whose faces were stuck in a perpetual scream of horror.

Again, not acceptable.

That Sound

Did you hear that sound? That great, loud, cracking sound?

That was my heart.

In light of the Hurricane watch over the Texas coast I decided to double check the 6-10 day forecast for Orlando, which just two days ago was bright and sunny. Now look at it.

If it is rainy and stormy the whole time I will... over react in a very dramatic way. Honestly, it will be ugly.

Six Days

SIX DAYS!!
LESS THAN ONE WEEK LEFT!!

In one weeks time Brad and I will be on a bus to the Animal Kingdom; that's right, at 8 in the freakin' morning! Even if I wanted to sleep late, it's Disney World - who can sleep?

Wish me luck thinking about ANYTHING else this week (like my job)...
