Absolutely!
Welcome to the group. It looks like you guys have lots of Disney Cruises under your belt already!

I added your family to Page #1-Post #1.
When you get a chance- please post your state room numbers and I will include that as well. That will be needed for the Fish Extender exchange.

OK- I have a question for everyone...
what are you wearing for New Year's Eve?

I understand that the Wonder does not have a formal night.
But I have also heard that New Year's Eve is considered "formal" anyway.
Is anyone dressing up for NYE? Tuxes or suits? Cocktail dresses or gowns?
Or just the usual dinner dress code?

My youngest son just bought his first suit- so he plans to wear it at least once (we are going to Palo one night also).
But DH and DS#1 may need to beef up their wardrobe if we go dressy. (They need to do it anyway- this is just a reason to do it now instead of later )

What does everyone have planned?

Last year for New Year's my sons wore a shirt and tie, I didn't want to pack suit jackets. We'll do the same this year. I wore a black dress. Some people were very dressed up, others not at all.

We just got changed to main dining. Add us to the fish extender list-we are in
6511-Joe and Betty(my parents)
6510-Blake and Katie-my son and his girlfriend
6512-Beth, Sean and Brandon(12)

Are most people doing something for each person in the room, or one gift a day-just so I have an idea of what to get
How many cabins are participating

Hi Beth. I added your info to Post #1 for the Fish Extender.

Right now there are 10 families listed on the cruise.
SIX have said they want to be a part of the exchange. I have PM'd the other 4 families to see if they are interested.
At the moment, we have 9 staterooms involved with our 6 families.
There are 26 people in all:
15 adults
4 "kids" over 18 (18, 19, 19, 21)
1 teen (14)
2 "tweens" (11, 12)
4 kids (5, 6, 7, 8)
1 dog (Shadow)

If all of the others join in that will add up to 19 more people (11 adults, 1 "Kid over 18", 2 teens, 1 tween and 4 children) in possibly 7 more staterooms)

I am a total newbie at this. From what I have read on other threads about the Fish Extenders, everyone can do whatever they are most comfortable with. The list on Post #1 will help people decide if they want to do a gift per room or gifts for each person. Names and ages are there if you want to personalize items. Give a gift once on the cruise, or every day!
This is not supposed to be more complicated or expensive than the cruise itself!!! But do what you can or want to- be creative (there are TONS of great ideas on the boards here). Bring something that represents the cruise, where you are from, Disney or something entirely different!

Anyone have any ideas?

What is okay to get as a gift for Shadow? Our dogs are big on treats, but picky, and only one enjoys toys much. We'd enjoy getting something for shadow too, but want to be sure it is okay.

I have been wondering the same thing! Thanks for asking.
I definitely want Shadow to be a part of this too!
