Laura,

The Door Signs are AWESOME!!!!!! I truly think you should start a business!
I may ask you to make a few signs for me for my future cruises...of course I would compensate you! Naturally, under tha table...lol

You are VERY creative!

GUESS WHAT...

We HAVE OUR DOCS! They arrived on Friday!!!

WOOHOOO!

I have been shopping ever since...lol.

[oscarmoraz]

Finally it's less than 2 weeks until the Cruise!!

We did get our docs this week - YAHOO!!! (finally)

The suitcase comes out this weekend so I can start packing.

DD (the DJ) is planning the tunes for the car ride over so I can program my iPod.

We are not going into Nassau (unless we make a very very quick trip to a liquor store for Bahamian Rum - that's it). The boat should be pretty quiet and enjoyable.

On Castway Cay we are doing the Catamaran Snorkeling excursion and the Banana Boat rides. Since we have cruised DCL before we have already done the snorkeling in the lagoon, the bike rides, the massages and the kids club so we wanted to try something new. I did read somewhere that one of the bars on Castway Cay has BOGO martinis so I won't miss those!

We'll be at the "meet" at 3:00 so we'll see everyone there (and here on the boards until then).

CONGRATULATIONS...

Is it safe to say we are all able to do the DOC DANCE?

Hi Driver,

How is the packing going? I started shopping a little more yesterday...but K-Mart was having a "Fall Frenzy" and alot of the toys were 50% off...so I was detained...lol. We spent 3 hours in the madness. At least I have made a dent in our Christmas shopping. But I have to get my butt in gear and get moving on finishing up on the Disney items!

Please let us know where to find the BOGO Martinis on CC.

Laura or anyone, will there be a slumber party for the children one evening?

We are at the final count down stages!

Here is a picture of us taken last month. The guy in the red shirt is my father in law.

I was out shopping last night. I found the cutest pirate costumes at the Factory Card Outlet! The toddler size was only $9.99, Timmy's was $14.99, and mine was $22! :cool1: I will be modifying mine! I guess we are going to be pirates after all! Tim still refuses to wear one. He did pick up a shirt for MNSSHP that says... I am Scarier without a costume. LOL!

I just can not wait! We are flying down the night before and staying at the Raddison at the port. That way the kids can sleep in a little! Last year when we went to WDW, we woke them up in the middle of the night as we had an early flight. They were miserable all day! We did not want to do that again! :rotfl: We have a 10 AM shuttle to the port. I can not wait![/QUOTE]

Princessh, Great picture of the Family! I am hoping I can remember everyone’s faces...however, Laura you have a great idea about hanging out at CC! We are game. I am sure we will see each other at poolside while in Nassau!

Great Deals on your pirate attire, princessh! I need to get on the ball with this as well! So grateful for the internet! :wizard:

Will your children be dressed in Disney costumes at the port? We are leaving the choice up to Sierra...so I am guessing she will be...lol. We are also packing her bathing suit in our carry on luggage so she can enjoy the pools after lunch.

We were planning to leave at 5:00am, same day…but you make a very good point about being miserable/tired the remainder of the day….ok…another item on my plate…lol. :cool1:

So glad the plans for Cherokee fell thru! So much to do.

Laura,

Those outfits are way too cool! Good eye! Would you mind if I copy your idea on Abigal's for Sierra?

I would like to find a Pirate Cape for Troy as I am not sure I can convince him to wear striped capris...lmao! Me, I have no problem with it though...lol. I may enjoy being captured...

[oscarmoraz]

Unfortunatly, not strip dancer!! We booked through DCL and they arrived UPS.

Better Luck next time...maybe...

 

[oscarmoraz]

I just thought of something... just tossing this out, and no one has to catch it... lol

But.. I was thinking since a lot of us are hanging out on CC... maybe we could hang out together..... I mean, we would be at the beach sitting next to strangers anyway.... why not a familar stranger?? We could call it a Castaway Cay Cluster! We are not really together, just hanging out.... Ooooh I see another door sign in the making......

I'll shut up now! Hee hee I had to check how many times people ahve posted to this thread. This current post will bring Cindy and I to a TIE! LOL Boy oh boy I have a lot of time on my hands with the girls at school!!!

DH nixed the store bought costume... He pouted and said I thought you said I could wear sweats, a t-shirt and sandals.... So he will be going as Mr. Smee.... LOL I just need to get to the paint store to get a blue that matches the sweats, and then paint a lot of strips!!! lol

 

[Laurabearz]

I just had to add we are doing the SINGLE DIGIT DANCE!!!! We leave for the Contemporay in 9 days!!
WOOOOOOO WOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOO!!!

 

[princessh]

Ok, I am finally getting around to posting a few of my door signs. What a busy weekend we have had!

 

[oscarmoraz]

Gosh I am amazed at all of these signs...they are brilliant! I am soooo green! lol I have never seen anyone make them on any of my other cruises. What a treat!

Ok, so fill me in on the secrets...after designing the door signs, just print them out...anything more?

Ok,
Minnie Mouse outfit...purchased
Pirate outfit for Sierra...purchased
Disposable camera...purchased
Many Disney outfits and items...purchased

I still forgot the ink for the printer and the magnets!

Tomorrow...organizing Sierra's suitcase!

Enjoyed seeing your double digit dance Laura!

Everyone Have a Good Evening! My feet are killing me…lol.
Cindy

PS Laura love your idea about the paint store!

 

[Laurabearz]

Cindy... The door signs are a DIS thing. Although I am going to make a few signs for my Carnival cruise.

oK... I am logging off... I have to get up at 530am tomorrow to try and get an IllumaNations cruise for our Dec trip!

 

[Laurabearz]

I just had to pop in and say......... I GOT OUR ILLUMNATIONS CRUISE FOR DECEMBER!!! A harder ticket to get than Breakfast at Cindys!!!

:::::: Yawn :::::: I have to wake up gosh darn early for the next couple of days to try and get a better day for us. The cruise I booked was for Sunday Dec 18th, but I would prefer mon or tues for cruising LOL But just like with Cindys... you have to work your itinerary around when your lucky enough to get it!

Now I have an hour before the kids have to get for school..... not enough time to go back to bed, and I am too tired to do anything but veg. LOL

 

[driver]

I am going to be embarrassed to hang my signs on my door! PrincessH and LauraBearz have such awesome signs!! Where did you find your clipart?!

I definitely won't be posting pics here - you'll have to walk by our door for a good laugh!

Oscarmoraz: The BOGO martinis are on Castaway Cay at the Head's Up bar from 10-1. I will stop by there for sure in between my excursions. The banana boat ride should be really fun after visiting Head's Up!

No pirate's costumes for us. We will be wearing our Tampa Bay Bucs shirts for our pirate outfits for the party.

Talk to y'all soon!

 

[Laurabearz]

If you GOOGLE Disney Clip art... a bunch of sites pop up.
