Awwww...thanks, what a warm welcome!



I won't be scared away by chattiness! I can't wait to get to know everyone.

I forgot to mention earlier, it will be my DW Hazel and myself going on this cruise, unless our then DD 19 changes her mind and decides to join us. My DW and I are using this cruise to celebrate our 34th wedding anniversary which also happens to be 10/24/09..........

Just got back from Michaels - they did have t-shirts on sale!!!!! Regularly $3.99 USD, I got them for $1.89 USD each!!!

I bought 18...enough for all the family (except 1 size 2x, they didn't have any) plus 3 for our MNSSHP t-shirts (if we do it, if not I'll do something else with them) and a few others for miscellaneous projects.

Great buy there Jen!!!

OK birkenstock lovers, someone posted this on the community board. I maybe in trouble!

I've never worn Birkenstocks but I think I might need to get a pair now! They are really cute.

Leyton will be 8 on the cruise. It does look like he'll be in good company!

Nope, I'm from Sunny Florida! Acutally, we live in Longwood, which is a suburb of Orlando. I work for a major theme park in the area, but I can't say which one in a public forum.

Well, my birthday is 10/10 -- can we count that as our celebration??

I think the age break for the club is at 8 and Leyton will be with the other boys in the Lab.

Sunny FL, wish I was there. Especially after seeing the Disney stuff on the Travel Channel this morning.

So, are the "fish" a clue?

10/10 is close enough. Our anniversary is 10/2 and we're counting it. Is it a big birthday for you?

 

[JLDSMD]

You guys are going to have the BEST time on the cruise. We used to be DINKS, but now we're a SITCOM (Single Income, Three Kids, Outrageous Mortgage).

I love the "SITCOM" acronym (sp?).

You sure can, you are a BOB'er for sure!!!

BTW, my DW and I own a vacation home in Lake County, FL about 45 minutes north of Orlando.

Whoops. I'm not all that bright. It would be Single Income Three Children Outrageous Mortgage.

 

[oybolshoi]

Weren't you something else like One-legged-flashing-for-freebies, etc, etc?

I was trying to leave all that behind me ...

Fine:

I have also been referred to as OLNPWBFFFB which is One-Legged-No-Pants-Wearing-Bewb-Flashin-For-Freebies-Brenda


and more recently thanks to our friends at Epcot, specifically at Bistro Paris, I also respond to the names: Benda and Bendy.

You can shorten those to B if you like ... that's easier!

 

[2Princes_&_1Princess]

So, are the "fish" a clue?

And, no it's not a big birthday. I'll be turning (math is not my strong suit), but I think I'll be turning 33!

We're practically neighbors, then! Let us know if you need any help during hurricane season!

If I was your DD, I'd totally change my mind and join you. I'm actually not looking forward to when mine don't want to come with us!

Congrats on 34 years! DH and I will celebrate our 10th anniversary in '09. It already feels like I've been with him my whole life. I can't imagine 34 years (in a good way!)

 

[DISNEYDUET]

[arielhead]

Looks like my family and I are going to be crashing your party!

Can't wait to meet everyone and get acquainted!

Welcome! I'm Tanya and I'll be sailing with my DH Philip and our DS CLaire (14) and DS Remington (9).

Glad to have you join us!

 

[DISNEYDUET]

Looks like my family and I are going to be crashing your party!

I'm Brandee, and I'll be aboard with my DH, Justin and our three little demons, uh, angels: Ella - will just have turned 5, Jackson - 6, and Leyton - 8!! It will be our second Disney cruise, the first being a 4-day Wonder in '07!

I haven't caught up with the groups posts yet, but I can say without reading too far that we want to participate in EVERYTHING!! Sign us up for Tag and Trick or Treating (both giving and t-o-ting!!).

Can't wait to meet everyone and get acquainted!

Welcome Brandee!! I'm Shelley and my hubby is Woody. We don't have any children. This is our first cruise and we just can't wait!! Our little BOB family is a lot of fun. We are very welcoming but a bit chatty at times. Feel free to jump in at any time!

 

[arielhead]

Wow, this thread has been real slow lately At least it's not hard to catch up to

I decided to make a couple more 2-tier cakes for my website today. If I had more room to store them I would make more. I still want to do a At the Zoo cake and an On the Farm cake but I have 6 cakes sitting here now so until I sell them, I think that's it for the cake making

Wanne see 'em?

Cass, Your cakes are beautiful. I'm going to try to make a monkey one (it's my neighbor's fourth child) and a dalmation one (co-worker). I really like the black and white of your cow cake!

Cheryl I live in mine year round! I got my first pair when I was 2. I have 12 pair that I wear now.

Welcome Brandee and Family. In my group is myself, Janice, DH Mark, DS Bryce (14), Mackenzie (10). We are one of the many families from WI, and we traveled in 10/07 with this group. Couldn't ask for any nicer people. Hope you hear more from you.

Those are great. I may have to look into some.

 

[DISNEYDUET]

Hey Janice! How's everyone? Have ya dug out of the snow yet?

 

[Timon]

I'd offer my address, but my brother already uses it because he wants the Milwaukee channels.

Thanks anyway Jeffy

Yep, I'm definately getting "hurricane season" with Ellis . Plenty of cat 5's around our house.

At least Kira has an excuse - she's teeny tiny and doesnt know better...Ellis, however - acts like a 2 year old and then a teenage monster. He actually shouted out loud in the theatre lobby the other day when I was trying to keep hold of his hand cos he'd been tearing round like a mad thing and I'd finally been able to catch him... quote "will someone call the cops - she's hurting me" - I nearly died. A few parents gave me sympathetic looks to show they understood but others looked at me like I was a child killer - a few more episodes like that ...and I might just be

The joys of parenting

WOW, ok, you got me beat At least Kira can't really talk yet

Cass, Your cakes are beautiful. I'm going to try to make a monkey one (it's my neighbor's fourth child) and a dalmation one (co-worker). I really like the black and white of your cow cake!

Thanks Tanya Good luck with your two cakes

Hey Janice! How's everyone? Have ya dug out of the snow yet?

Hey Shelley, long time to hear. Things are good here, in full swing of soccer season. I am coaching Mackenzie's age, (9). Mark is president of soccer club, so trying to get everything organized and refs and schedules finalized and practices....needless to say our lives are hectic. But it a good hectic, the kids grow too fast we have to enjoy it while we can.
So do I see you have a Dying husband??? Good luck to you, I know how dying husbands can be...

Got to run, catch everyone later.

I just read on MSN that Charlton Heston died yesterday. I can remember the first time I watched Ben Hur. I was with my grandfather and every time I watch it now it really makes me miss him. We have truly lost a great American film icon.

Oh what a shame.
