well, since no one else is going to say anything, I guess I will.

This weekend was quite active. Saturday I got up early and went for a pretty long walk (up to Town House Hill) then I picked up the Boy at Mom's and he walked back with me. We saw 3 otters playing on the Mill Pond. After that I don't really remember what I did except I must have had some coffee, and I cleaned some. Oh yeah, I took a really long nap. Then I made stir fry (pork, broccoli, carrots, onions, peppers, special herbs, spices and sauces). Then I made a cake for the Shorey boys and went over to Delmon's for "2nd supper" (yes, I ate like a hobbit) but I didn't have much. Who could resist Togue chowder (not me, especially when Delmont is cooking). The cake I made was one of Aunt Dena's recipes shortcake with applesauce in the middle and a delicious brown sugar frosting. A VVG time was had by all (despite my Pittsbug team losing).

Sunday we all got up and went to Bangor to Brunch, we had jambalaya, bacon, grits, eggs, bagel pizza's fruit, coffee cake and beignets. Oh and Cafe du Monde (coffee from New Orleans that has chicory in it). It's WONDERFUL. I was vvg and only had fruit a little jambalaya and one piece of bacon (though I did have one Mimosa and several cups of joe).

After that we went to Old Navy and fought with the kids and bought clothes. We came home and I repotted some tomatoes and planted some impatiens. Watched BBall, golf and Harry Potter and went to bed.

There. I did it, I would think you could too....

man are we losers....

No posts in a month????

oh god.....LOL

Day 3: Animal Kingdom

Amy: My favorite was the Dinosaur ride. Leigh bought us lunch at the Rainforest Cafe---Thanks, Leigh! You were with us in spirit!

Isaiah: I like cake. I like cake. Cake. Cake. Favorite ride? (hum) Safari

Maddy: We are SO going on Everest again.

Amy: Never

Isaiah: NEVER!

Today my highlight was the frozen coke at Animal Kingdom and the safari, where we actually saw a LOT of animals. Also, we went to Epcot and watched the fireworks. They were pretty great. Tomorrow we're hitting the movie studio.

Epcot

Today we all went to Epcot. I think it's fair to say that the highlight of everyone's day was Soarin'. If you haven't done it, look it up. I thought Amy was going to smack me when it started because she's afraid of heights...but it was fun.

Maddy--Soarin' is really really really cool.

Isaiah--I like pie.

Amy's taking GG back so she can't comment.

Isaiah was a shopping FOOL today. He insisted on going into EVERY gift shop in World Showcase. We're all going to bed now. Tiyad.

WDW

Today we ventured out to the Magic Kingdom after Amy picked up GG. Here are the kids reviews:

Isaiah: I like pudding cups.

Maddy: I dunno. Just "wow".

GG: I had a wonderful time. GG got free ice cream because (I THINK) I bought ice cream for everyone else but she wanted to buy her own...so when she got to the guy he just said "it's on me" and I think he gave me a dirty look. Nobody stepped on my toe all day so it's a good thing. The fireworks were good.

Well today we hit several highlights of the MK. We went on It's a Small World and I think they have changed the end a little...doesn't seem as chaotic. We also went on Pirates (loved it), Haunted Mansion (worst crowd of the day), Country Bear Jamboree (Amy and Maddy agree it's just like being at RK's on Thanksgiving), Maddy and Isaiah LOVED Space Mountain. And we went on Splash Mountain, where I promised Maddy she would just get a little wet, but as soon as we went around the first corner we were ambushed by a log coming down the big drop--and ALL the water on one side landed in OUR boat. SOAKED. For the rest of the day. We saw the light parade and the fireworks, which the kids loved both. We ate ice cream and popcorn and we're waiting for pizza because we haven't eaten since lunchtime. Tomorrow, Epcot.
