First, I’m sorry for not updating more often - life’s been moving faster than my fingers can type.
Second, I’m sorry for not updating the photos on Flickr… that’s a bit out of my control right now. You see my computer crashed - BIG TIME crashed. I have it back now and all data was saved (except the balance in our bank account); however, i now have a new OS (Leopard for those mac users out there) - so all new applications, etc. minus the one i need … Aperature. So i’m waiting now to get the application and get it loaded - once its loaded i’ll have a backlog of pictures to upload to flickr. fun stuff.
So here’s a picture of JT as Oompa Loompa from a few years back. It’s still the most popular photo on Flickr for us - i remember researching for that costume and there wasn’t much out there on the internet … so that explains the popularity.
This year JT is going as Popeye (the original) - the costume was made once again by JT’s Mammy and Aunt Sissy - it looks AWESOME!!! HE LOVES IT!! He’ll even be wearing Daddy’s white cap from the navy (and yes, it fits JT’s head perfectly - we’ll call Daddy PIN HEAD from now on).
Mommy and Daddy are going as Olive Oil and Bluto … get it? the little love triangle?? Genius, pure genius. haha
To top it all off, we’ll be trick-or-treating at DISNEY WORLD!! We planned the vacation a while back and JT is so excited about it he can hardly stand it. He knows that Mickey Mouse is going to make him pancakes and that we’re going to eat dinner at the castle AND we’ve been trying to prepare him and prevent character fright by telling him that Mickey Mouse is HUGE, super SUPER big … he holds that hand up way over his head and repeats it “Goofy is THIS BIG GAHMER. He’s really big.”.
We found out this week one of his classmates in preschool may also be at Disney for Halloween, we may try to hook up with them during the trick-or-treating. Gahmer is going with us to Disney World too - she hasn’t decided on what her costume is going to be - but i think secretly, she’s excited to get dressed up and let go. That makes me smile.
While in Orlando, we’ll also try to find and break bread with Kim’s Aunt Mary… who’ll be walking her way to the finish line that weekend for the 3day Breast Cancer Walk. You can see her personal page here if you’d like to make a donation: http://www.the3day.org/site/TR/Walk/TampaBayEvent?px=1767460&pg=personal&fr_id=1190&et=GwZ5g5Mm4e6813I7URRZfw..&s_tafId=6190
Well, that’s it for now … gotta go make a bologna sandwhich for the man, otherwise he’ll break our bank account eating out on high dollar lunches. Also need to see what’s going on with JT … he spent the night at Gahmer’s last night since he went to pumpkin patch with her, Uncle Kevin, Tater and Mater late yesterday afternoon.
