MLM5.. aka Judy

Tell Drew he is really causing me scheduling stress!

Yvonne your a genius, we could pick up all the Northern WW there and drag them to Defeated Creek.. that place would never be the same!

I could entertain that area, it's roughly about 7 hours for me to that part of the country, do-able if it gets me some WW time..

well..... we could move it a little bit more North , whats between Flordia and the high North?

I will come find you if need be, you've seen the crazy eyes, I have no reservations about throwing you over my shoulder and kidnapping you for a few days. I'll even leave a note for Shawn and the kids so they dont worry :)

As most of you know the annual pilgramige of Wild Women will begin on Jan 17th (give or take a few days) When you feel the earth rumble a bit unexpectedly, know they are all there and the shenanigans have begun! I sadly do not get to partake this year The kids really do cramp my style at times :) In speaking with a few other ladies, it was suggested that maybe another gathering this year would be appropriate. Waiting a WHOLE YEAR to get back together is WAY to much to ask of any purple blooded wild women :) So I have been thinking maybe the end of June a gathering in Gatlinburg? A cab

so if I'm understanding correctly the problem lies with not getting the gate price when you upgraded? But the tickets themselves were good for admission without paying any more? I'm getting ready to order some universal tickets and now I'm nervous..lol

I can't see the darn pic's for some reason from my work computer, DAMN the man.. I missed you by a day, the little ones and I invaded Pigeon Forge the day after you left, we had a wonderful time to, Dollywood was not a bit crowded and I was happy to find out they keep alot of those propane heaters throughout the park, so even though it was 30 degrees, we really didnt get that cold! I love that area, looking forward to going back at Memorial Day and this year we are doing the 4th there as well. I'll check this out again when I get home :)

YEA! Been looking for this one, you go girl!!

That's good to know, I'm prepping my children now to be productive members of society, I plan to sell everything after the last one is gone and hit the road for good. Some people will not agree with my plan but that is ok. The best thing my parents taught me was to stand on my own two feet.. if they hadn't I'm not sure where me or my children would be today. I had a lengthy arguement about this particular subject with my sister last night so I'm still a little raw from it I guess.. To many people are raising cream puff's instead of functional adults.. :soapbox: Ok I'm sorry, back to the r

What is this street party you speak of? I was just looking at that area.. doesnt it get crazy cold? Dollywood appears to have some pretty spectacular events during that time as well...

Thank you blessings are always welcomed (and strong beverages) :heart:

for your sake i agree.. :rofl2: I :heart: me some Shardi :)

AMEN! I don't get to go very far very often but when we are camping, we are "away" and sometimes that is all you need.. my older ones are 15, 13, 12.. border line.. my little ones however (5,3) still LOVE it and ask to go every day which makes my heart warm :heart: I wish I had done this with my older ones ALOT sooner..

Since buying my trailer in May we have been about 6 small weekend trips.. but I'm still very much unfullfilled and the thought of winterizing and putting her away brings tears to my eyes.. yes I'm a emotional mess.. it's part of my charm really :) I'm wondering how the kids will fair in cold weather camping.. usually my beverages keep me warm :rofl2:

Mark 1 Disney 0 :rofl2:

boo to the caeser!

I'm pretty clueless but I have plans to be there the week of the 4th :) Hoping to see all the fiends I can!

agreed, one of my all time favorites I :heart: this family

This is good to know, I used a mixture of bleach and water on my tent ends thinking it would keep the black stuff from coming back.. no.. no it didnt, it drives me insane!! I didnt think about simple green, I'll give that a whirl

We are a house divided on the barefoot thing, but I'm with your girls, bare is better :) I thinking living in Hawaii for 10 years ruined me on that one.. my youngest boy however has a "thing" about this feet, he must have shoes and socks on at all times.. I have often wondered if he is my child..lol I had no idea that AKL had so many fun things to do, I will definatley put that on my list to check out I don't think we will be doing parks in July, the idea of that kind of crowd mingled with the heat makes me get hives.

OH MY GOODNESS! The pic's of the babies in the leaf's are AWESOME! Those are a couple of cuties you got there and they are obviously having an awesome time! You have tarp skills. In all of my years camping, I never acquired those.. my oldest son calls it the "blue blanket of death".. :rofl3: He might have witnessed a certain mother fighting with one a few times over the years.. maybe..

I'm here I'm here! More pictures please :)

WE DO??? when when when?? I NEED my fall trip to the fort.. really.
