This is going to date me!

Who remembers the New Mickey Mouse Club? Not the one with Brittney Spears,Justin Timberlake or Keri Russel. The 1977 New Mousekateers with names like Todd, julie, Kelly, Lisa, Nita, Curtis, and Mindy. I remember arguing off and on for years with my younger sisters about the New Mickey Mouse Club. They always insisted that the one with Brittney and Justin was the new one. But I knew I watched it as a kid. Not only did I watch it, I got their record for my 7th birthday and played with Nita a few times. Even with all that they didn't believe mine was the original New Mickey Mouse Club. There was never any physical proof that I could find. Until Now! Now that I have Learned how to browse on the internet, my case has been proven!

Not only did I find this picture but a petition to get Disny to release a DVD of the episodes. Yeah!!!

Can you find the one that's not an Ashcraft?

Do you see him? That's right, It's DONNY OSMOND!!!!!We went to Build a Bear at Downtown Disney tonight with the DelBello cousins. Gian spotted him, Amy stalked him, I intruded on his family night and introduced him to my whole family, Amy took the picture then I took a picture of her family with him. He was very nice about it but I think we may have drawn too much attention to him since he and his family left very quickly afterwards. Thanks Donny for a Picture to remember. By the way, the kids had a great time tonight also.

Halloween Catch up

As the end of the year approaches, the panic of catching up on the years events has set in. Please bear with the out dated posts. Halloween was busy as usual. School parades, ward party, youth dance and trick-or-treating at Grammy and Nanas houses.
