Welcome adisneymama....as you can see we are a chatty group!
We will add your name to our first page.....so, is it you,DH and DD2? Watch out for Jeanna - she might make you bring your relatives !
I am traveling with DH for my year long 50th birthday celebration......we have LOTS of kids traveling with us and have a DIS meet planned.
Also go to http://www.hannomax.com/hannomax/index.html for more planning info.

Hi adisneymama!!! You are amongst a great crowd here and we're all ready to have a blast!!! (Sorry - my 80's upbringing is showing.......lol)

 

[disneydreamer1970]

Welcome adisneymama!!!!! We all love to have fun around here and the more the merrier!!!!!

This is the first cruise for myself, DH (Xsydid), DS (13) and DD (3)!!

We can't wait to meet everyone!!!!

 

[PoohJen]

Welcome adisneymama!!! We're glad you're here!

This is my family's first cruise too - me, DH, DS (7,7&11); it's been great fun planning and sharing the excitement with all our new DIS friends!!! We're a fun crowd!

welcome adisneymama- our group is alot of fun

 

[adisneymama]

Hi thanks for all the welcomes. My name is Debbie, DH is Buddy and my DD is Aubrey. She will be 2.5 at cruise time. We are very excited! Yes, this is our first cruise ever!!!
As for the family, not a chance. My inlaws are not the "grandparents" type and my mom just drives me nuts! Anyway, we did the "family" vacation for Aubrey's bday in May (moms day) and the inlaws made sure to ruin it. We went to DisneyWorld. Thank God they only stayed 2 days. We had the rest of the week to ourselves. Long story, but even DH doesn't have anything to do with them now. In addition to all that mess, my DH was hit by an 18 wheeler in January. Needless to say we are ready for a stress free vacation.

Can I ask if any of you or your spouses will be playing golf in ST Thomas? DH is taking the excursion leaving me and Aubrey to fin for ourselves. Do You think I should try an excursion of my own, just me and Aubrey while he is on the course? Or do you think I will be safe to wonder on my own with her? I have been to Nassau before and would not feel safe just she and I walking around there. I don't know anything about ST Thomas though. Any of you past cruisers have some info on that?

Thanks! I look forward to getting to know all of you!

 

[xsydid]

There is a lot of love on this cruise. I am just happy to know that.
I really think we should all have a group hug while on the ship.
My DW knows im an Angle, and will be well behaived.
Go ahead and tell'em Trish

 

[adisneymama]

Does anyone know of a good place to get a dress for the formal night? Also, are your DH's wearing suits or tuxes? My dh will wear either, but doesn't want to be the only one in a tux.

Hope you all have a good evening!
I so can not wait for this cruise!

 

[GrayFal]

But others are wearing tuxes.....
I sent you a pm - private message....check your mail on this site but clicking on user cp and going to mail....


edited to add - Wow - I have been reading all the weather threads....glad we are going in November when the hurricane season is over.....family friends were on the 8/14 diverted cruise and now there is another threat of Hurricane Frances.
What a bummer for all involved on vacation and for those who live permanently in the area.

Welcome aboard adisneymama

My DH is wearing a tux, we're renting it from www.cruiselineformal.com

I got myself and DD8 and DD4 beautiful dresses, fairly cheap, on ebay. The girls dresses I bought outright for terrific prices, and mine I fought tooth and nail down to the last second of an auction.

We are a great bunch. Some of us have been chatting over a year and can't wait to meet everybody in person. You have found yourself sailing with some really fun people.

 

[adisneymama]

Thanks! I am watching ebay as well. I am an ebay fanatic. I already have a dress for Aubrey. DH owns a tux (he plays trumpet for weddings) so not a problem to bring it, he just didn't want to be the only one wearing one! LOL

Thanks for the warm welcome. I look forward to getting to know all of you and meeting you on the cruise.

Happy cruising!

Hi everyone! This is really a great crowd of Disney cruisers! May I join in? This will be our first cruise and we are soooo excited! I will be traveling with my DH, DS15, DD14, DS9 (who will turn 10 during the cruise), DS7, DS5 and DS3. We also have my DD21, her DH and their DS6mos. traveling with us as well.
We are arriving in Cocoa Beach on the 11th to relax and spend some time on the beach before the cruise. We are looking forward to meeting everyone!

 

[PoohJen]

Welcome mrsmg! What fun to have more friends to add to our group! My DSons (7, 7 and to-be-12) will be glad to hear about your boys being on the cruise!!!

Hey Sarah - how's Mom?! I don't think she's posted in a page or two!

Has everyone settled on their excursions? I still can't make up my mind - I'd love to hear what y'all have planned.

 

[chichihoney]

~mrsmg~ welcome to the disboards we are a fun

~jen~ mom doing good and been busy

 

[adisneymama]

Welcome mrsmg! I just joined as well.

The only exursion I know of so far is Dh is playing golf on St Thomas. I'm not sure if I am going to book an excursion for Aubrey and myself or not. Do you think I would be safe just the two of us walking around on our own?

Have a great day!

 

[disneydreamer1970]

Welcome Mrsmg!!!!

This is a crazy group, but lots of fun!!! As I have said before....the more the merrier!!!

Xsydid....I think that you want me to tell all these nice people that you are an angel...not an angle!!! How can I possibly lie to everyone!!!! I think most people hear have already made their minds up about you!!!!

Have a great day everyone!!

Trish
