[klineyqueen]

Just so you all know....I am staying up tonight until I am caught up on this thread!!! I can't stand being behind for another second!!!!

Does the amount of luggage you pack stress anyone else out? I just can't pack "light" for a 10 day trip, especially when I have to pack formal wear, semi formal wear, cruise casual, beach attire and shoes for all of the above... oh and pirate costumes. I'm about 90% packed but it just seems like it's going to be such a pain hauling all this luggage from the airport to car, car to port, etc.

I am 0% packed and stressing!!!! I do know what you mean about packing light!!! We will be gone for 13 days and I told my DH that I will do laundry the day we get off of the ship....other than that....pack enough!!!!! Tomorrow night after my music lessons I will start to pack!!!! I will do all of my laundry tomorrow and go from there!!!!

Good idea!!!!

LOL! I think that I have created a monster!!! DD has put the Christmas stickers on the outside of the envelopes to mail along with the return label. She has also put the return labels on the inside of the DIS cards.

Yesterday when I went out on errands she dusted downstairs (as well as a 6 yo can ), made her bed & ours, & attempted to straighten up her room. Of course the chances of being successful with that were slim since I had her possible cruise clothes on the floor & bed. Today when I came in from getting us lunch she was sweeping the kitchen floor. Pretty good job too!

Our newest iPod addicts!

Have I mentioned lately how much I love my ipod?

 

[lbgraves]

Sounds like a plan Carla!

(now I just have to figure out how to filch it from DS, mug the guy who runs the Dumbotron and set it up, and get it to work there, yeah, that's all . . .)

I have a feeling that the guy who runs the DT would love to have the chance to play it as well. It may not have to involve any violence.

I guess I have to buy Dreyers ice cream to get the free downloads. Darn! we will have to eat more ice cream!

OK, consider us warned. He is waiting for a big goof to be posted so that he can respond to it.

Okay, I made my LAST trip to Target (hopefully) for last minute supplies...

Didn't find any garment bags I liked so I am using our suitcase that has a built-in suiter...

We are at: 2 26" suitcases, 1 21" suitcase, 1 rolling duffel, laptop bag, camera backpack, 1 backpack per kid.

Becka - I did see Little Swimmers in stock at Target so let me know if you want me to pick some up for you.

PJ - did you find someone to pick up some Assets for you at Target?

Any other requests??

Hmmm, maybe I should drive across town and check out our Disney Warehouse store for these before we go.

We got them in July. They tend to have off season stuff.
