Hoop Dee Doo Review

So the best way I can think of to tell all about Disney, is to tell one story over a couple of weeks. They are all hilarious and each deserves its own post. I know everyone will be sick of Disney from reading for so long but they really are funny.

So first Hoop Dee Doo Review.

There is an interactive dinner you can go to at the wilderness camp at Disney. You wouldn't go there unless you were going to a show or camping there on the property, so not many people know about it.

Pennie said that they had gone to this show once and it was so funny we had to go. Now the $ is $50 a pop so we went as adults. Katelyn watched the kids in the hotel.

Pennie being the very organized person she is, made reservations the day they became available. This put us on the front row of the action. Believe me front row.

So there is a show that calls on people in the audience and Kelly got picked to say where we were from. They sang about the MOTAB and that was funny.

Then Brent began....

They sang the hokey pokey and a very blond cute girl was showing her leg to everyone. Of course this sent Brent a heckling. Comments like Oh yeah, THats what I'm talkin about, and his dirty laugh were all in effect that night.

The characters broke character at one point and asked Brent to come on stage.

Now Brent is all about heckling but not so much making a fool of himself on a stage (thats my job) but the actors asked him if he would participate and he said okay.

They called 4 people total to come up on stage and play a role, THere was an Indian, cowboy, can can girl and brent the star of the show.

All of the people were hilarious and played up thier respective parts. THen Brent came out twirling and blowing kisses, followed by a rump shaking right in my face just off the stage. I was crying so hard and so was my family. All I have to say is way to go brent and thank you for being such a good sport!

A little bit of Walt Disney World Craig Style

I don't have alot of time right now to update but we had a great time in Disney world. I will update everyone in a few days but sit back enjoy the pics and I will be back to explain every detail (including the too too brent is wearing)

Dolphins revisited.

Okay so 2 weeks ago we got the camera to work at Tip's football game here are some freaking cute pics of the family decked out (ND was playing and they happen to be the same colors as the Dolphins, Everybody Wins!) And some great ones of Hunter posing and in action. Just in case you didn't know he is #20 and he plays on the line



Just a small update. The Dolphins scored they're first touchdown last week. And the week that these pics were taken the Defense (where Hunter plays the best) held the other team to 12 points. The Dolphins have only 13 players and you need 11 to play. Tip sees alot of playing time. But with tired players the other teams get a lot more rest than the Dolphins. Hunter is loving it and we love to support him each week! Love you Tip Dawg.

My little Diet Coke Monster!

Okay so on Thursdays we can make up an hour in our class or get ahead an hour, whichever you need. (I need extra since we are going to Orlando). We are not allowed to eat while we work or observe. We can however drink. I thought to myself "self bring a Diet Coke and you can drink that while you observe today". Now those of you who know me I do not carry cash ever. I take my Diet Coke, write my name on the side in permanent marker put it in the school fridge and go to class. Then at lunch I went to get my coke out of the fridge and low and behold it is gone. I ask you W.T.H!!!!!! Now I don't have a coke, no money to buy a coke and the little monster is coming out to say something I will probably regret.

I went into the salon to observe and of course my face tells everything, where is your coke Katie? So I start on a 5 minute rampage of who steals 1 can of coke. I am so angry my fists are shaking and there is absolutely nothing I can do about it. I know it isn't anyone from our class, because they were all with me. But we do share the building and breakroom with the juniors, seniors, and massage therapists. I am just so angry that I can't get anything that I want to explode. Luckily a girlfriend had heard about it and brought me a Coke from McDonalds so I was okay. So now I had a coke, and needed to repay someone the next day.

My feelings are this, If you need a diet coke, bring one. If you don't have one borrow a dollar. If you would like a diet coke, have no money and have to much pride to ask for a dollar, then suck it up! Do not steal someone elses and put them in the worst mood ever! I am getting over it now and I will not put another Diet coke in the fridge unless it is in my lunch bag, but I had to get that horrible day off my chest. Thank you to Tierra for thinking of my monster on Thursday!

Trip to Elizabethtown KY

So this past weekend we went up to Ky. Brent's brother Mark got tickets to the Rider cup(this is an annual golf tournament that moves every year and it is really popular). Brents brother Bryon came all the way from Hawaii to go to this thing too. Another reason we went up to KY was for Grandma Rosie and Grandad and Hailey's birthday. Now my kids haven't seen cousins for a couple of months so this was a big deal. Abbey, Sarah and Rachel all get along so fantastically and they were so happy to see each other.

The Golf outing..

So the boys went golfing on Friday grandad, and all four brothers and Nates friend Aaron ( i swear he is a nathan clone!) they were having a good time when of course Brent got up to tee off.......

Okay so Nate and Aaron were down the course a bit, Bryon and James were about 20 feet in front of Brent on the side, and Mark was behind Brent (where he should have been). Brent goes to swing, hits the ball and hits a line drive into Bryons arm!! Yes in his arm just above the elbow. If he would have been an inch lower he would have broke the elbow. Now from Nates point of view "I saw Brent hit the ball and Dad double over, I thought Brent hit Dad".

Dad says "When I saw that Bryon was okay I doubled over with laughter"
Bryon says "I am just glad you didn't break it"
Mark says "It's my weekend off so stop hitting people with balls Brent"

All in all they had a great time and Brent will not live this one down for awhile.

Rider cup...

They all had a great time and the golfing was awesome. I really don't know alot of what happend but Brent was glad to spend time with his brothers and dad for a couple of days. I got to hang with Rosie, Maria, Amy, and Maria's mom Dolores. I had so much fun giving manicures, and just catching up with how everyone was doing. It was like we were all back in Rosie's house on a Saturday afternoon just hanging. I was in need of some family time and this was perfect!


So now the horror story of KY.......!!!@@@%$^$%$

Sarah (M&M's daughter) has a friend that lives next door. His name is Collin. Now his mom's name is Dawn, but the previous owner of the house is Terri and my kids adore her. Collin has a pool. My kids wanted to go swimming. They asked and I said no it is getting to late in the season, and we didn't bring any swimsuits. Abbey asked me 4 times if she could go swimming. After the 4th time I told her if she asked again she was in the house the rest of the time we were in KY. The mommies were in the living room and my mommy radar went off. I went outside to check on the kids and low and behold, Hunter is drenched, Caroline is naked, and Abbey is getting ready to get into the pool. DId I not just say no? After a good spanking outside with no parents around might I add (even the owner) They were guided to the basement where they spent the rest of the afternoon in a corner, cleaning up toys, and not playing with cousins the rest of the day. It is so hard to dicipline when you are not at your own house so we told them we would be revisiting this issue when we got home.

Update: they were so grounded until today and I mean no nothing at all fun. toys, video games, movies, tv you name it banned until today. they have been very sorry and after a long talk about how they could have died. a light seemed to click. so that was the bad part of the trip but everything else was absolutely perfect
