I thought she did off of Ebay or something. It was rediculously cheap too if I remember correctly.

Cool THanks!! I haven't been a real Ebay shopper, but I got some of the Mickey Postcard Dresses for the girls (one that I saw our BoB friend, Becky wearing in a picture with Heather) and I'm starting to become a fan!!!

Thanks for the heads up on looking there!!

After all those questions I posed about the Paradise Point tramway, I went ahead and booked it with Disney. Well, then I read on the thread that Heather started that the tickets are non refundable, so I think I am going to cancel and we'll do it on our own. In total it'll be $6 more for us to do it that way. I'd rather do that then decide I am too tired after the Trunk Bay excursion, or not interested anymore, and feel like I have to go because the tickets are non refundable......

Wow - we've been chatty tonight!! Next Sunday night is my LATE night (east coaster) as we get to make shore excursion ressies and Palo ressies (us first time cruisers!!!!)

Heather and Karen are going to be so happy with us!!!

Maybe she'll post what type she got and where she got it from.

While I'm thinking about this, I wanted to say to all the Bobers: If you see Rob and I on the ship or on excursions, please say hello even if we don't say hello first. We are such a large group that I know I won't remember names/faces and I surely don't want to seem rude. On KK1, I think it was Janice who spoke to me one day and I couldn't remember her name; I was so embarrassed and just pretended to know who she was. I am vowing not to do that this time around, so please excuse me if I have to ask your name more than once. I would love to blame my bad memory on the brain surgery I had last year, but alas, I am just forgetful.

As a side note and kind of ironic, Janice and her awesome family, as well as Rose and June, are our tablemates this time around, and I am so glad.

Maybe we need more BOBers to send pics of themselves to Cass.

That is a great idea. I am usually too afraid to ask someone if I know them. So, please just walk right up to us. i will try to be better about being forward also. Good idea paige.

And, if you don't want to talk to me.........just act like you have no idea what BOB is. Or the Dis boards.

Becky - I just posted this above, but I found the dresses on ebay that I asked you about - matching!! They make a men's shirt in the same pattern, but the only one out there now is $79.99. I'm waiting to see if someone posts a "gently used" one (I'm not above getting hubby a used shirt!!)

I bid on one in my size, but got outbid at the last minute and now the only one in my size went up to $49.99 - so I'm waiting to see if the seller will lower the price (same guy I bought the girls' dresses from).

I'll try to remember to take a picture of them in the dresses and post them here tomorrow (they are sleeping now!)

We are waiting until we get there too. Not sure about the timing either. I know we're scheduled to be back at 2:10, but things can always change. Plus, I'd like to see how much time we'd have up there before dropping the cash.

Now if we can't get to Trunk Bay (all St. John excursions were cancelled on our first Eastern), we'll do Paradise Point first and then go to Meghan's or Sapphire.

Based on the size or our group, that will only leave a handful of people who don't know who the BOB is.

I'm off to the shower.

Nite all.

The way I understand it,you buy the ticket and it lasts all day. You can go up and back as many times as you want and stay up there as long as you want. There's a restaurant and bar up there....

I'm headed out too. My show is on.....

Goodnight everyone.

Hey Lori - don't you go tempting her with Charlottesville (nice mountains, curvy hills, pretty view, etc)...- I'm trying to get her down here to the Richmond area! LOL



Yay!! Can't wait to see the pics of the family with the new puppy - he was SOOOOOO cute!!



I just talked to Dave and apprently HE wants to do the MNSSHP - SOOOOOOOOOOOO excited!! Now I"m off to book a room and the tickets!








I too am painfully shy at first (beleive it or not) and I think that buttons are a great idea!! I can't beleieve how much work there still is left to do!!

I LOVE Paige (and all that comes with her) so I will stoop pretty low to get her to move here.

I will take some pics tomorrow night. Right now she is asleep on the couch beside Alex. Julia and Scott aren't home yet. Jackson (the new puppy) is actually a really early birthday present from my mom to Julia. She has been begging for a puppy. i have the video camera ready for when she walks in the door.

Well - I'm headed to bed!! I've had the computer on all day today, I need to get this laptop off my lap!!

TTYL later all!!! Goodnight all!

Yes, but I'm concerned about not having enough time to do it or really enjoy it. It will be one of those last minute things.

What city are you in Joanne?

These are Destin.

The first kker I saw isn't a Bober, but we were both trying to get our luggage squared away, and I had my kids, and I think she had her kids and parents, so we just exchanged pleasantries.

The first kker I saw in the terminal was Karen. We were both in line to check in, so we just kind of gave each other a wave. She probably doesn't remember that, as she was squealing so loud. Kidding, we were all very excited.

The first kk hug I got was from Sistah Goose, Nancy.

The first kker I met on deck was Jeff and the first kker I met in the bar was AFEG!

The first kker to ask me for assistance was Cinnamike. He was asking us to help him dissuade Robin from buying some jewelry; I think I just laughed in his face. Go, Tart Annihilator, Go!

The first KKer I saw was Jeff. Then Suz inside the terminal. From there it all a big KKer blur. I loved looking around and seeing familiar faces.
