12/09/06 Cruise Continued ~ Pirating Bananas DIS Geekorama Part 2 Part 6

[TanaL]

Tana - I just realized that you must have joined us while I was at the beach. I didn't properly introduce myself...hello...I am crazy and my name is Brandi. I also was very rude in not welcoming you....so....

Unlike my Dis twin (Becka) I do not know how to post lots of cool smilies. Well I guess I could figure it out but since I am on dial-up things like that are very time comsuming. You will just have to enjoy the generic Dis smilies.

Anyway...I am glad you have joined our fun group!

Thank you Brandi, for the welcome and the smiles!! Hope you had a good time at the beach!!

Halloween....I realized I never got a good pic -- it is a tinkerbell, of course the wings are in the corner and Haley was "pixie dust"....her glitter sign is in the corner also! I was a pirate and DH was Jack!

V, I have never seen someone do pixie dust for a costume before, that is just adorable!! they are both such cute costumes!!

Lisa,

Does DS like any other books like Harry Potter that put the magic back in?

Jerry Springer on Dancing with the stars....

Halloween: We don't usually have the trendy outfit of the year but the kids have always made their choices (and they have to decide early since I make costumes-CRAFT WARNING FOR BECKA) Sometimes the big sister decides what the younger ones will be. Last year Hannah wanted to be Glinda the Good Witch so she decided that Walt should be the Tin Man.

Other choices through the years have been Belle, Sleeping Beauty, Tinkerbell, devil, witch, princess, monkey, cow, bunny.
This year I'm making a Little Bo Peep for Hannah, and Captain Feathersword for Walt (you'll be seeing this on the cruise).
Pal Mickey: Sorry, can't help on that one.
JunieBJones: don't enjoy 'em, DD8 likes them. She's read the one and still loves the characters with no problems. Think about it: Don't we all get that magical feeling and talk to Mickey, Tigger, Belle, whoever? I still get excited when we spot a favorite and can't wait to meet them.

You MADE those?? That is incredible. So beautiful!!! I can sew but just straight lines... like curtains. Those costumes are gorgeous!

OMG...DH just saw that picture and asked...where is Eliza Bean on that pic. DUH...she was inside of me!!! He said "Oh man...It seems like she has been here forever!"

AWWWWW!!!

 

[klineyqueen]

I am happy. I just saw a promo for Boston Legal. That will be starting next Tuesday at 10 EST. That will be after Dancing. I told Tuesday will be my TV night. There will be no time for any sort of pricing!

 

[goofyforlife]

Nope! But that needs to be switched too. I'll do that tonight.

Yes Lisa.... and you have my DH's name as ANDRES on the manifest list....

It's Andrew. (yes i know the s is near the w on the keyboard )

 

[TanaL]

We are going on Thursday night as well. This will be our very first MVMCP. We are all excited about this! We are going on Thursday for the same reason as you! We want happy kiddos on Saturday!

I thought I had the perfect plan but just found out about the Little Ones Extra Magic Hour at Magic Kingdom on Friday, now I want to take the kids to that and it's at 8am. Keeping them up until 11 or 12 on Thursday and having them back at the park at 8am might not be wise. But we don't want to miss a minute!! HMMMMMM. Your kids are younger than mine -- are you going to try to do both?

 

[kimerinc]

BB is almost over.... Howie is mad!

I love seeing all your halloween photos! DH sometimes actually dresses up for halloween. He has a superman costume and a zorro costume. I have noticed many of the disney spouses dress up. What do you all dress up as? Lisa, do you and Mike dress up as Cinderella and Prince Charming? John does that mean that you dress up as the sultan? Amy that would make you....(don't feel bad Ariels mom is "not there" either....) Dr. Hug would be fozzie bear so Angie would be....

Can you see the thought process here...

Kim

It will be a cold day down under before DH will dress up on Halloween.

 

[kimerinc]

ok, now i know who won..

 

[waltsgirl]

I agree Kim - I am about to enter the iPod video age anyway - even though no full screen.

Don't tell Amy, I ordered a new 80 gb black iPod . . .

I also LOVE the new iTunes, and can't wait for iTV!

Sophia may get a pink nano for Christmas!

John1

Like I didn't know this was going to happen!

 

[lbgraves]

So do they, or don't they open up more slots at the 75 day mark??

No, they do not open up any more slots at the 75 day mark. They hold 50% of the Palo resies for onboard booking but no excursion slots are held back for boarding.

Your kids are younger than mine -- are you going to try to do both?

We won't be doing both. We are getting an Annual pass for this coming year starting that Thursday. We are going to the AK that day and doing DTD. We are spending 3 days at the parks after the cruise. For the first time ever we are not going to try and kill ourselves.

So you need to be a disney mom that where the dad "is gone". There are not very many of those! Mostly the mom is gone. Can you count the gorilla in tarzan? why are all the moms gone?

 

[klineyqueen]

It will be a cold day down under before DH will dress up on Halloween.

That is a bummer.

 

[lbgraves]

Lisa,

Kim

They both love the movies & I have read the first two books to DS. We have the rest, just didn't get to read as much to him with DH gone. I have to start that up again.

 

[klineyqueen]

Good Night Everyone. I am off to work on some Sudoku!! See ya tomorrow.
