12/09/06 Cruise Continued ~ Pirating Bananas DIS Geekorama Part 2 Part 10

[mum of two pirates]

John, you think like I do and....<wait - EVERYONE RUN!!!!!!> ok, where was I...

Of yeah, I stake out right down from Cookies, makes our lunches easier to get to. We need to organize and conquer...I mean, coordinate. We need to coordinate the night before and get on the same page. The kicker will be family members who want tubes and such - that slows us down. Maybe send one or two scouts..I mean, parents...over to pick those up and drag them to the bases, I mean...beach chairs. Plans, plans, already our minds are becoming one...

hi all

sorry havent posted lately. Autumn has not been doing good. She has not gone to school in 2 weeks, Her pain is out of control and we are hoping we have something firgured out by the cruise or Autumn and I will be having alot of down time. Thankfully my family will be with us so they can keep an eye on the other girls.

Alex's birthday is sunday after we return. I would like to surprise her on the ship for her B day. Do any of you have any ideas to make it special.

Also is there anyone going snorkeling on their own in Costa maya?

Thanks

Jill

[The Adams Family]

thanks

Well Tana,

Amy's sister does live in Williamsburg. Just show up at her door.

Hi, I'm Tana from Minnesotta, and I was supposed to meet up with your sister in St. Paul, but we just played phone tag, so I thought I would stop here and see you instead while I am in the neighborhood. Yes we met on the internet.

sounds like a good plan John! I'll be sure to bring duct tape and carry a lot of bags that might be useful for hauling off all her belongings.. just to complete the picture.

Hugs and prayers for Autumn and the whole family. Hope the problem can be solved.
Remember, too, if you do have the down time on the cruise, that there are a lot of DIS friends for your other girls as well. Maybe they can email ahead of time if you're comfortable with that so they "know" someone else before going to the clubs/Stack.

 

[TanaL]

alright you guys, Paul will follow John and Andy and help you stake out our section of the beach. I have pirate flags on sticks you could use to literally stake out a section but the CMs might frown at you.

I'll lollygag behind with the kids for a leisurely breakfast, pics with characters, pick up the floats, etc etc.

 

[TanaL]

Jill -- so sorry to hear about sweet Autumn having so much trouble right now. Praying for a quick improvement and pain relief.

For Alex, you can call DCL and arrange to have happy bday decor placed in the room, and you can also arrange a cake and singing in the restaurant. I would also love to help out if you need any helpers to make a surprise happen!

As for the last week, I don't think you have missed much. There was a slight scare that pirate night had changed to Tuesday, then it appeared that was a one time only thing and really, that's about it. My kids are too little for snorkeling so we're not doing any of that unless they get brave enough to try it while we're on Castaway Cay.

Are you booked on the Castaway Cay catamaran island cruise on Friday?

 

[The Adams Family]

we are doing the island cruise on sunday. as for alex i was kinda thinking about bringing some b day hats and maybe some horns and pass them out to some of the dissers in our area so that one night we can surprise her. she has kinda been ripped off the last few years for her b day since autumn became sick. I can not believe she is going to be 15. man do i feel old now.lol!

 

[mum of two pirates]

What time does the ship pull into C.C. What times does breakfst open up? and what time do we need to be there and what side of the ship do we need to be on to be able to see the familey beach? Thanks


Hi Tana, The big old lime green mickey bus is getting closer and closer.

 

[becka]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

I just got the call from daycare and it looks like Nathan now has pinkeye!

We were planning on going to the zoo tomorrow and now that may have to be cancelled as well.

It has been a long week and with this new development I just feel like crying. Aaron is getting off work to take Nathan home and then to his doctors appointment at 2:30. Even though Allie had pinkeye last week they still won't call in some drops for DS unless they see him and 2:30 was the earliest appointment.

 

[BuzzBoyMom]

Good Luck Karen!

Is that "good luck" as in "glad it isn't me"....or "good luck" as in "I'm available to come over and help?!

 

[BuzzBoyMom]

I seriously would offer to help, but I'm in last minute mode for Halloween costumes for the kids. (Happens every year...)

You're too sweet.

It's gonna work out...and hey - my MIL is here this weekend...soooooo...i really do need something to occupy my time.

 

[BuzzBoyMom]

Really Karen if you need any help...... DD is at a GS event tomorrow PM...

I can't sew but can put together creative stuff.....

Saw another Lion idea that used tulle to create the mane.....

I was researching earlier and saw that one too. I'll try to post a pix if I really finish it this weekend. I got some brown fur stuff...but I can't really find yellow/brown fur. Can't wait to see what I do! As long as I don't mess something up and cut my material and then ruin it...I'll make it work. Just hope no one looks too close at it.

Jill I am so sorry that Autumn is not doing well. My family will say extra prayers for your family.

I can guarantee that if you tell your servers they will bring a cake for her on any night of your choosing.

How old is Alex?


Hey fellow Geeks - Need Birthday Girl Ideas!!!!!

 

[BuzzBoyMom]

Btw have i missed anything important in the last week or two. cuz i really am not going to try to catch up this time.

thanks

I wouldn't recommend even trying. Same old stuff - bananas, coconuts, pirate stuff....


.....just the usual geek stuff.

oh - in case you are scrolling and read....at one point, someone thought pirate night might get changed, but we are now hearing that it is still on Wed. Just didn't want you running across those posts and being to get upset.

Truly - I can't think of anything major for you to know. You just take care of that daughter....and if you need a laugh...go over to the main boards ....check out the coconut and banana posts..... might give you a chuckle since you know our personalities!!!!

That's just so wrong..........

I mean they knew his DSis had it ..... Duh... It's not like it's anything else...

I got pinkeye one year right before new years on a weekend no less .... My dr took pitty on me and called in the drops to the pharmacy instead of bringing my disease into her office the next week and leaving me suffer.

Sorry to hear that Jill. Sending lots of prayers and hugs to Autumn.

You can always get a cake and have the servers sing Happy b-day. It doesn't matter if it is the actual day or not. Other than that, I don't know. There are far more creative people on here than I.

Mostly the same banter. Some are planning on staking a large claim on CC with pirate flags and such! There may also be a race for the hammocks.
