DIS Name
First Names of everyone in your travel party
Ages of any corresponding kiddos
Cabin Number

Additionally, I made name tags for all the DISers on my last cruise so we could easily identify each other. I am happy to do so again.

Any other info you guys want on front page? Do we have a design, name, or meet?
 
There are a ton of us Texans that are SO excited for this sailing!!! We are booked on Deck 5, and can NOT wait! I moved my Thanksgiving Fantasy sailing to this one...I LOVE the Magic, and I will be so thankful to be saving on airfare!

Let's get this thread active!:cool1:
 


Anyone else booked for Thanksgiving 2012?
:sail:
I'm so thrilled we can do this cruise sans airfare!
So now the hard part...wait a year and a half and don't tell the kids!
:ssst:
 
we will be there too,the long wait will be hard ,but all the planning will be fun!!
 
ok,you guys have been on many cruises, this is our first,I need lots of help.I have lots of questions!!But I am so excited!!
 


We are here :goodvibes
Myself, dh, dd(will be 10) (ds will be 4)
From DFW area :banana::woohoo:

That will be our 7th Disney Cruise. We are in Deluxe Oceanview Room
 
We live in Northwest Arkansas and will be making a 10 hour drive to Galveston for the cruise. The drive isn't a big deal for us though because we are use to driving 9 hours to my sister's house in Round Rock, Texas.
 
My family will be on the Thanksgiving Magic cruise. Yippee!!:yay: I'm so excited that I will be able to drive less than an hour to get to the port.

This will be the very first cruise for us. It will be me, DH, and our two children. DS will be 7 years old and DD will be 3 years old at the time we cruise. We are booked in a Cat 5A.

Hey. We still love you! You don't have to be from Texas. Arkansas is such a beautiful state. I bet several come from there on this sailing... And I imagine Oklahoma too. But it is unique and exciting that 'ol Mickey' is sailing from Texas! :)
 
Hubby and I will be there too! It is hard to wrap my mind around the date, Nov. 2012. I keep thinking it is 2011. However I have Spring Break 2012 and June 2012 cruises booked on The Dream. I booked them when the first bookings were available. Can't believe I will be cruising 3 times in 2012 whoo hoo:banana: Once with adult daughter and twice with Hubby! I've been pulling for a Disney Ship out of Galveston since I first heard the rumor! So Happy! The Galveston cruise should be my first as a Gold Castaway Club member. Hopefully Galveston will add some cruises that are not 7 nights and during the school year so I can cruise out of Galveston more often.

Welcome! My DS will also be 7 years old! :rolleyes: I'll also have my sweet DD who will be 12. Our first ever Disney cruise was actually when she was 3 (like your DD) Oh how the years fly by. That is a big reason I think vacations and time together as a family are so precious. :lovestruc
 
We will be there! I am so excited! This will be the first cruise on DCL for me and DH, and the first cruise ever for our kids (will be 20, 15, 11 for the cruise). We have been talking about booking a Thanksgiving cruise for a couple of years. When I found out about the Magic coming to Galveston, there was no way I could pass it up! There was some confusion and frustration dealing with the TA, but we got a 4E. BTW, we are from the Austin, TX area (btwn Round Rock and Cedar Park).

:woohoo:
 
Hi!

We booked yesterday. We live in the North Austin area. I have done 3 DCL Cruises. Hubby has done 1. I have The Dream booked for March 2012 (Hubby and Me) and June 2012 (Adult Daughter and Me) so if all goes well I should become Gold CC with the Galveston Cruise.

Hubby and I will be making Konk Koolers tonight to celebrate! The recipe is on the CC website.

I have sailed on The Wonder twice and The Dream once. This will be first time on The Magic.
 
We'll be doing the Pilgrims and Pirates pirate:cruise with y'all! Driving down from north of Houston, so super close.

I guess it's too early to start planning my door decorations...:rotfl:
Won't stop me, though!
Just one and a half years, that's not too much, is it?

Hey our kids are almost the same age! DS will be 6 at the cruise date and DD will be three (almost 4)!

That's neat.

I can't wait until Easter, then I can make the chocolate soufflé from Palo to celebrate!
Does anyone know what kind of schedule we can expect on board with the holiday and the new itinerary? Special dinners or theme nights or anything?
