We also went to my cousins pagent this weekend. It was for Miss Utah in the Miss USA pagent (the donald trump one that goes to miss universe)

She won too! It was a good weekend. Here is her picture.

Wow Kim, what a week!! Did you at least play the lottery?!?!?!

I was referring to the WallyWorld from the movie "Vacation" with Chevy Chase.
Never heard WM being refered to as that.

 

[lbgraves]

So far so good. The kids are almost out of here! DS wont eat anything so I am hassling with him but DD is ready.

 

[lbgraves]

I have also loved my 30s so far, but your story is wonderful. What a great way to celebrate your special day!!

And it makes memories and anniversaries easier to remember!!

Actually he asked me on 2/1...didn't want it to be a a special day so that it was special itself. When he put the ring on my finger the night of my birthday he said that he hoped that he made me as happy on my 80th birthday as I was on my 30th. Yes, I was in tears by the time he finished.

I tried in vain to get my sister to come with us, but she seetled for a longer and cheaper RCCL cruise to the S.Caribbean. I tried to guilt her by saying she can take her two grandsons with her so their mom could get some peace since it would be soon after she had her third baby. I threatened to tell the grandsons too! Didn't work though. Something about being more than twice as much and been there, done that as to the places we will be going.

You know, we have been to CC and Cozumel but I doubt that this cruise will be anything like our previous cruises.

 

[lbgraves]

Someone has been smiley hunting!!

Yup! I was hunting for the ice skating one and the site I found had some great ones.

 

[lbgraves]

morning! I was able to snag a Palo dinner for my dad. No brunches avail and the CC tour is only showing avail on Sunday.

That was quick! Glad that you got him a dinner.

 

[lbgraves]

Its 6:15am on the first day us lowly 75-day ressie makers can book, and I already don't see any availability for Palo brunches or the Fury Catamaran trip in Cozumel. Is that normal??

Brunch disappeared about 5 minutes after opening at the 90 day mark. The 75 day mark opened at 3 am so whatever was left went then.

 

[lbgraves]

Since its her wedding, I kinda had to go But I have always wanted to go on a Disney cruise, so its not all that bad.

It's so nice of you to make sacrifices for your sister.

 

[lbgraves]

 

[lbgraves]

I guess that I will just take the kids to school then. Later!

 

[lbgraves]

hi V - wondered if you were up too! ya, no brunch - bummer!! I did get my parasailing though!!

does the banana boat book up or can you walk up and get on the day of? kendell isn't old enough and I know he will be disappointed!

Banana boat is one of the popular ones so that books up. If there aren't any openings now, check for cancellations. They do not have more openings on excursions once you board unless people cancel on the ship.

"Steel Magnolias"

Yes! They make a great team! I hated how the first show ended. Too sad.

 

[pyramid2000]

I'm here Lisa..just can't post quite as fast as someone else here...

 

[DSharpe]

ok- it wasn't booked up, and I was surprised....I'll go book something - thanks!

 

[pyramid2000]

Yes! They make a great team! I hated how the first show ended. Too sad.

I was SHOCKED! I liked the show too, but I missed some because I was watching Without A Trace too.

 

[DSharpe]

Brunch disappeared about 5 minutes after opening at the 90 day mark. The 75 day mark opened at 3 am so whatever was left went then.

I was there at 3 and there was no bruch available - that was the first place I went - only dinner was an option...

 

[pyramid2000]

I am so happy today!! There is no turning back now!! We are past the point of no return with the cruise!!

 

[klineyqueen]

How cool! Hmmm...how many are there celebrating b-days onboard?? Lisa, talk with your people!!

My DH will turn 31 on Pirate night!

I was there at 3 and there was no bruch available - that was the first place I went - only dinner was an option...

I was going to release my brunch ressie for CM day yesterday, but I did it last week so I wouldn't forget. I am still wondering why they are having brunch on that day??
