Wow... so many posts... I don't even know where to begin!

Favorite Disney Princess Amanda ~ Yes I want the bag. I told Mekayla last nigth over dinner that she wasn't gonna' get one like mine after all and she cried! Actually cried! So yes, I do want the bag! How much do I owe you now...$34,000.00 & a Drink? Tell me what you want for it and I'll paypal you again, I have your address still. Mekayla will freak out!
Maybe I can get it embroidered with her name on it before the cruise!

My tattoo will not be gone before the trip ~ it might be gone by this time next year (hopefully) Yes it is sensitive to sun, so I wear hats. I will be the one in the ballcap all cruise! Verandah Man's picking me up a Twice the Magic hat tomorrow ~ I can't wait to get it! I think I have a different Disney Cruise hat for each day now!

Mekayla and I got bumped off our raft and I landed on some rocks ~ ouch! I sucked up half the Willamette River, so four more days of antibiotics for me! EEEWWWW!

I wanna' play tag, so we're cabin 6507! I would give the rundown on who we are and where we're from but ya'll know ~ and for those of you who don't, you will soon 'cause I am a "Chatty Kathy!" O.K. back to work for me.

Hi All I was at church camp last week where I was a counselor of five girls from the ages of 6 to 8. We had a good time but man am I tired.....

It looks like there are a lot of new people now, so I guess I need to introduce myself also.

I am Amy - and I will be 33 on Sep. 2
dh - brian 35
ds - 11 dd - 8 ds - 6 will be 7 this sunday
We are from Michigan

This is our second disney cruise but we live at disney, last year we were at disney for 30 days with the kids and the year before we had the kids there 27 day and we were there 30 total.

Brian is Trades ( Millwright) at Ford motor company, so we may not have a job when we get on the cruise......
I am a full time mom and a photographer, I freelance for newspapers and today I took my first senior pictures. It rained so we could only do inside so instead of being totally nervous once I have to do it again with outside pictures.....

I'm not sure of our cabin(s). But I will post it as soon as I know.

If anyone has all the info. on everyones names and cabin numbers, where our meet will be and info. on tag will you post it so we can print it out?????

Have a great day guys, I am going to download the pictures I took today now and get them up on my website so the parents can see them.
