That's exciting for your family. Your family is very talented.
Music is a HUGE thing in my family. My mom's cousin was a singer and she sang at our wedding, my mom played the piano, I majored in music though I don't really use my degree in my work but I still sing, then there's this cousin...well, it's my cousin's daughter, so like...a cousin once removed or something, she's the casting directer and I guess Disney asked specifically for HER. And she's also casting a Jimmy Buffett musical and Charlie and the Chocolate factory the musical (or maybe that one's finished? I don't remember). Then on my dad's side, my dad can't carry a tune in a basket, but his dad played the violin and some of the cousins play piano. Now my daughter is into musicals. She got advice to move up to the production group this year, but she's decided to take a year off because she was feeling too pressured and wants a year with no extra-curriculars, but she's only 10 and has a great little voice, so I wouldn't be surprised if she does something with music later, too. It runs in the family.

I love Silver Springs, with the ladies in the beautiful dresses, and the water skiing show.
Hey Bets, I think you are thinking about Cypress Gardens (the current location of LegoLand). Silver Springs has the crystal clear springs and the glass bottom boats. Cypress Gardens, from what I understand have been continued by Legoland because really it is a historical part of Florida... long before Disney ever showed up. No more water skiing show though, I think.

Cypress Gardens is just south/west of Orlando and Silver Springs is up by Gainesville, Fl. North/West of Orlando.

Ouch! :in pain:

Time to get you a bigger bed. Or side rails. ;) Have fun. :)
I found my pillow, with my head on it, on my nightstand a few days ago. Last night I had a dream about losing money I had put away for Christmas present's for the kids and grandkids. I was swearing up a storm, not being able to find it. It was a very naughty dream. I talk in my sleep, I wonder what hubby heard?:eek::rolleyes:;)

I did get mixed up. Went went to both, I loved the glass bottom boats, too. I'm getting worried, it seems I'm getting mixed up more often. At least I haven't put my shoes in the refrigerator!;)

Don't do that... it will give you cold feet and you might never dare to do anything again. ;)
Give yourself a break though. We all confuse one place with another. We know better, but, at the time we see one name and our brain picture goes to something different. You and I are lucky, so many people now days never leave the confines of the Disney property and are completely unaware of all the gems out there just a short drive away from the Mouse. They wouldn't know Silver Springs from bed springs.

My DD got that talking in your sleep from her Dad. Entertaining.
