[biroberts]

Ok, call me stupid. How do I get the Buccaneers sign under my signature?

Thank you Lauren (Mrs. Gumdrop) for making the fantastic "Buccaneers Take the West" sign!! I love it.
Also, thanks to JanDave for making the spreadsheet! Awesome! It looks like we have a great group!

To get image in your siggy you save the graphic to your computer and download it to a site like Photobucket and then add the IMG code to your siggy. Can anyone else make more sense of this. I can barely do it muself. Lois

any idea when tickets go on sale?

I think they go on sale next month when the "official" calendar comes out. You can get them at Disney online, or go to the Disney store (I think!) and purchase them. We are thinking of staying at either Pop or All-Star Movies for the 2 nights before the cruise. We have stayed at CSR for both our big trips to WDW, and really love it... but budget is calling for a value this time! We are planning to do Sea World and DTD for sure, and I am considering MNSSHP. I just need to decide if we are going to be too tired to enjoy it or not.

To add the image I:

right click on the image and go down to properties

left click on properties and highlight the AddressURL

while highlighted, right click once and click on copy

Then go to USER CP and click EDIT SIGNATURE

Click at bottom of your signature, or wherever you want it to go, right click and select paste

Add [/IMG] to both the front and back.

Click preview sig to make sure you've got and you shoulod be good to go.

If that doesn't work for you, we'll try something else.

SCHOOL'S OUT FOR SPRING BREAK. Now, time to relax and get some things done around the house.

The one thing I need to do next week is to go and get our passports.

Hope everyone has a great weekend.

Any one affected by the storm that hit Alanta Ga? It just doesn't look good. Lois

Gena, Let me give you a big AMEN on spring break!

You guys have been so busy. Thanks for all those who are working "behind the scenes" to make up the sig. pic and the spreadsheet.

Honestly, I don't even know where to start with excursions. I have a tendancy to just sit back and not do anything, but I don't want my laziness to keep my kids from having experiences, so I'm going to seriously look at what's available. (Of course, lack of funds will play a BIG part in it, lol)

And WOW, thanks for the reminder about MNSSHP tickets. I hadn't even thought about tickets going on sale so soon. I'm wanting to take my family the Saturday we get off the ship. I'm thinking that will make disembarking not quite so sad. We can get off the ship, go spend the day at the resort , do MNSSHP and drive home the next day.

Well, I'm going to go workout. I've have been sick this week, so I've not been to the gym at all since getting back from DC. I've lost 10 pounds since I started working out, and to gain that back would just make me cry, so I'm going to get my lazy behind off this computer, lol.

Talk to you all later!

I trust he was not one of the 30 reported to have been injured. Living in the midwest I know first hand the kind of damage a storm can do in a very short time.

Will check back in later. LOis

Thanks again for the picture Lauren!

We have nine days left until Spring Break. Everyone pray that I can control my fourth graders until then. They are killing me!

Hello all-
I have been looking around the DIS tonight and have been reading alot about Fish Extenders. Has anyone thought about Fish Extenders? I know, I know, we still have over 6 months to go but my theory is it's never to eary to start planning.....
I have been reading tons of posts on them and it seems like such a cute and fun thing to do!! (I got alot of great ideas from DIS'ers who have participated in this in the past )
I have been looking around at Fish Extenders on ebay and have also been comtemplating on making my own. Has anyone ever had Fish Extenders on prior DCL cruises? I didn't know about it on our last cruise so DH and I didn't participate.

I started three fish extenders more than 1 year ago. Maybe I can have them done for this cruise. I only need 2 of them now. Lois

It's funny you should bring this up, because I have become fixated on Fish Extenders. I have whole color scheme picked out based on Goofy! As a novice quilter, I think I can cobble something together based on the guidance I've seen on other threads. I would love to hear what others have done.

 

[MommaluvsDis]

I'm all for doing the FE thing! I will be happy to do the list and delivery schedule if everyone wants me too.

 

[glindamood]

Hello everyone! I hope that everyone is having a nice weekend. Sun is shining here and it is a balmy 23 degrees! Certainly not what I experienced in Orlando this past week but it is nice to be home and sleeping in my own bed.

You all have been busy. LOVE THE LOGO - great job! I have mangetic paper so I can make a few signs for our door. Thanks for the spreadsheet Jan - another great job!

Well, I have laundry to catch up on and I guess I need to figure out something for dinner (and then get it thawed out).

Mommaluvsdis-thanks for offering to do the list & delivery schedule!! You're the best! Please add me to the list-I'm in!!
I love the idea of the FE and think it is the cutest tradtion, ever! I am in the process of getting my FE. I saw some on ebay & have decided to purchase mine.
I have also started to get my list together of the goodies I'm bringing. I have some GREAT ideas!!!
My husband looked at me today like I'm nuts-he said to me, "Jack, do you realize we cruise in OCTOBER??????"
Well, its NEVER too early to start planning. To me, planning is just as fun as the cruising itself!

 

[momm2four]

I want in on the fish extender thing too. Who knows? Maybe this summer, I'll actually grab me a hot glue gun and fix up one, lol. Do we let the organizer person what we're going to bring ahead of time or is it a surprise?

Anyone else going to the Halloween party before or after the cruise? One thing I'll do differently from the last time I went is to eat something quick instead of doing a big sit down meal. We went to the Liberty Tree in 2005, and while the food was fine, we paid over $130 for six people to eat...or I should say for 3 people to eat a meal and for three people to eat about 4 mouthfuls of mac and cheese. Not worth the money in my opinion.

Talk to you all later!

You are awesome Denise! I want in for sure.

 

[glindamood]

We are in on the FE's as well so add us to the list Denise. I saw mine yesterday as a matter of fact so David and I are all set but I will need to do something about one for Ben and Kristie but until I have a final 'we are going' from them I am not making one. I looked on eBay and there are a few (all appear to be made by the same person, just different fabrics) but much pricier than the one I purchased. Maybe I need to begin frequenting the local dollar stores to see what I can come up with.
