Question For My Family


I was thinking about starting a new, personal blog, a site where I could write anything I wanted. I thought I would call it - CAGE FIGHTING FOR WEENIES - Daily philosophy that will kick you in the groin and gourge your eyes out. Then, when I have a random thought, like, how come everytime my channel flipper hits a cage fighting scene, instead of seeing someone box or kick, there is always one big, sweaty, partially clothed man laying on top of another big, sweaty, partially clothed man. Sort of like -Project Cage Fighting. Yuk!

Future Young home?

(Postscript--done prescript style----I was a little excited when I originally posted this, and most of the pics were sideways, there's a much better picture blog here. Sorry for my confusion. :) )

Ryan and I put in an offer on this house today, and should hear back by tomorrow night. I thought that I'd put some pictures up:


This is a picture from the kitchen looking towards the upstairs:



The first one is of the living room from the fron entryway. The two windows ahead of me are actually matching stained glass windows, but the picture didn't show up as well as I had thought it would.

The kitchen has been completely redone, but is going to need some appliances.

Zip-a-dee-do-da, Zip-a-dee-eh, My, Oh My, What a Wonderful Day!



We had a GREAT time at Disney World!!! The kids did wonderful on the planes with the exception of Brendan's ears really hurting on the way down. Dugan wanted the window seat (both ways) and Daphne colored her little heart out! The kids loved Magic Kingdom. The boys all went on Space Mountain (indoor roller coaster) and Daphne and I went on a spinning ride that goes up high. She loved that one the most. Dugan loved the roller coaster and wanted to go on more. Brendan was happy because he got to drive a race car on a track! They had many of the ol' favorites like, It's a Small World, the Haunted Castle, Pirates of the Caribbean, Snow White's Adventures, the Teacups, etc. They also had a really neat Buzz Lightyear ride where you can shoot at targets and get points while riding in a car along a track that you can turn all around. We went on that ride 3 times! We also went on Splash Mountain (unfortunately for me, Daphne was tall enough!). We got very wet and it had a huge hill (Ben said Daphne's face after the hill was so lit up-she loved it). Daphne also got to meet Aurora, Cinderella, and Belle. That night, we watched a parade with the floats all covered in lights and fireworks. We were there for almost 12 hours! The next day we went swimming and to Downtown Disney. Downtown Disney has a huge Lego store and of course a Disney toy store. The kids loved the swimming and finally, Dugan is comfortable going all the way under water!!! The last full day, we went to Hollywood Studios. That was fun, but Magic Kingdom was better. We went on a Star Wars Flight Simulator, watched a Muppets 3D Movie, saw a high speed car super Stunt Show(Brendan was loving that), ate at Pizza Planet (from Toy Story), met Power Rangers, voted for the season finale winning clip for America's Funniest Home Videos (airs on May 11), and the kid's favorite was a huge Honey I Shrunk the Kids playground.

Here are a few pictures from our trip.

Guess Who?

The Princesses!

Honey I Shrunk the Kids!!!

Outside of the Star Wars ride.
They didn't have the blue Power Ranger so Dugan didn't want a picture.

I can't figure these out


Becky,
I don't know your email, so I thought I would just post this to the blog. I can't figure these out, but thought they were cool, nonetheless. Here is the link to these things. http://www.queenbabybean.com/item.php?item_id=741&category_id=168

It's the ultimate in "going green", no?

I should have looked further. Here is the description:
It really is as easy to use as a disposable diaper. Put it on your baby, wash, dry and re-use. No extra steps. No folding. No stuffing. No cover required.

Funny

I was just browsing on e-bay today when I came across the following patch which made me laugh:
