2006 DVC Member Cruise - SSMC06 - October 22, 2006 Part 2

[cgcw]

Ok that's just a little scary. Luckily that has never happened to us (our place is too small to get lost in)!
Glad everything was ok but I might have had heart palpitations!

One would think our place is too small for that to happen also. No upstairs or basement for us so there aren't a lot of option.

One of the longest moments of my life.

The other would be our first trip to Hilton Head. We went to the beach and Cameron asked if he could go into the water. Okay, I'm standing there with Walker, no problem. Gary's putting sun screen on and can't see a thing without his glasses. Next thing I know, I look up and Cameron's moving down the beach with the current. I'm trying to get Cameron's attention -- no luck. I'm trying to get Gary's attention -- as now I'm heading down the beach with Walker. No luck. So, I'm torn. Do I leave my 1 year old to try and go after my 5 year old. Or, do I try and take my 1 year old with me -- knowing he's going to slow me down. Eventually, I picked Walker up and ran him back to Gary who then took off to retrieve Cameron as he's quicker than I am.

Very, very scary. From then on, we went into the water together.

Jeff I'll be happy to be an angel!

 

[Diana Lyn]

Jeff I'll be happy to be an angel!

Me too! I totally don't look anything like Farrah though!

The other angels were Kate Jackson and Jaclyn Smith. Sabrina, Jill and Kelly. We used to play Charlies Angels when I was a kid, so I know all about them. I was always Sabrina. (Kate Jackson) We also used to play Dukes of Hazzard and I was always Bo Duke.

 

[Diana Lyn]

Sounds like a plan to me! Plus we can celebrate my birthday

If we're celebrating, I'm gonna have to find a babysitter!
Think I'll start with a couple of Twisted Teas before chat. If I don't make it into chat.....I'm passed out at the keyboard!

***T Shirt Information***​

The votes have been tallied up and the front design winner is........D!!!!! By a huge margin I might add. With over 20 votes. (Not counting Curt's since he was disqualified for double voting! )

For the back design:

OK. I know I had said I wanted to get the store up and running by April 15th, but I wasn't thinking April 15th was Easter weekend and we're going down to NYC and well, I don't want to rush through it if I don't have to. So if you guys don't mind, I'm postponing our Grand Opening until next week. But the hard part is done. The decisions have been made. And all I have to do is upload the images and pick out the products for sale!


Once again, I appreciate everyone's opinions and thoughts so feel free to pm me with anything about the shirts. These aren't MY shirts, their OUR shirts and I want to make sure everyone is happy with what the group decides!

 

[alikat99]

Thanks for all that you've done with the t-shirts, Diana!!! I can't wait to see them all!!!

 

[alikat99]

Ok, since Diana did an update on t-shirts, and Cindy has recently done an update to the early dining list, it's my turn to do an update on the kids list.

If you would like your child/children to be added to the list, please PM me.

Before I post the dining information for the evening in hopes of getting some more responses from those who check in on the weekends, I have a trivia question.

Out of the list of people below, who has the lowest confirmation number. As in, who was the first booked from this group for this cruise? Anyone want to guess????

Dining Information for the Cruise ​

Here are the people I have who have indicated they would like to sit together for dinner on the cruise. This is for EARLY dining only. I don't believe anyone has offered to coordinate a group for late dining. If anyone is interested, feel free to go ahead.

If you are not listed and would like to join us, here's the information I need you to send to me in a PM. Your last name, first name, DIS name, confirmation #, cabin #, how many in your party, how many children - if any, and if you have a preference as to who you sit with.

For anyone who has a request for seating, please send me a PM and I'll make a note of it. By now, maybe you have an idea of who you would like to spend your 4 nights of dinner dining with -- or who you wouldn't like to dine with. I can take those requests as well.

[WDWLVR]

My guess is Amy

 

[alikat99]

I thought that there was someone else in chat that morning that got in before me.

 

[Diana Lyn]

my guess is amy too

 

[iluvdisney]

I'm going to guess #1 Mouse and Capn Hook since they got the room that I usually request.

 

[rsschneck]

Amy, she got a SPH room and they are the first to go!

 

[4Gus-Gus&Figaro]

Wow, I guess having diabetes is all that bad.

I have a new group name for the cruisin' diabetics: Jeff's Angels

"My name is Jeff and these are my girls..."

Sure - I'll be an angel. Though, anyone that knows me will attest to the fact that I'm not exactly angelic (No comments from you, Stacy!). There weren't any redheaded angels, though, so I'm not sure who I could be...

 

[4Gus-Gus&Figaro]

I've never had creme brulee, either. In fact, I didn't even have the souffle at Palo. I got the custard-fruit-thingy ~ also very tasty! I did sneak a bite of Curt's souffle, though, and it was awfully good...

 

[WDWLVR]

Good morning everyone - had a fun time in chat last night!

Good morning everyone - had a fun time in chat last night!

I had fun too!

Hey curling friends---(well, I should have said Hey Curt!) I was watching the Disney channel this morning and saw a clip of the new movie The Wild. There's a scene in it where the giraffe and lion are curling using turtles! It's so funny. Of course, I doubt most kids are going to get how funny that is. Probably most adults too!

Chat was fun and the time went by so quickly.

I hated to leave but I really needed to get Walker in bed. I think he's getting a bit hyped about Easter. Between coloring eggs, helping to make a jello mold for Sunday and packing to go to his Aunts for the weekend, he's more than anxious.

We are out of here after Cameron's baseball practice today. Heading out towards Steve & Colleen to Wilmington for our big weekend away. The kids adore going to Gary's sisters house -- she makes it a lot of fun for them between cleaning the horses stalls (yep, they love to do it ) to catching frogs in her pond. They really look forward to it.

Have a Happy Easter everyone!!!

Since Cindy shared her stories about her almost lost children, I thought I'd add mine. When my twin DD's were two, we were going through the whole "riding the potty train" thing. It was summer, so I just let them run around the house in their underwear. It made things easier if you know what I mean. Anyway, our house had a screened in front porch, with the mailbox on the outside of the screens. I would lock the door to the sidewalk so the girls could go outside and play on the porch whenever they wanted. Well, I had just taken both of them to the bathroom and was helping Rebecca get her panties back on, when her sister, Anna, ran out of the bathroom and onto the porch without her underwear. I thought, "No big deal. She can't get anywhere. However, apparently when Ken went out to get the mail, he must have forgotton to lock the screen door, because she was no where to be found. I picked up Rebecca and started walking around the neighborhood calling her name, but couldn't find her. I thought "If I have to call the police to report her missing, the first thing they'll ask is 'What is she wearing?' and I'll have to say NOTHING!" Finally I walked between our house and the neighbors and saw her across the back yard. We had a chain link fence around the yard (also locked) and she couldn't get in. I ran over there, picked her up, and took her into the house. As soon as I put her down in the kitchen, I looked out the window and saw my mother's car pulling up to the curb. She would have DIED if she had known that her granddaughter had been running around outside, unsupervised, in her birthday suit!

I missed the fun in chat last night - got home too late - the grandbaby's parents took me out to Carvel for ice cream! Carvel was my favorite ice cream place in NJ when I lived there for the first 20 years of my life and now finally they have one here!!! Also the local IKEA store is looking pretty good - hopefully will open sometime in the summer - I can't wait!!! And best part is that the two are in the same parking lot!

Am I crazy or what getting so excited about Carvel and IKEA?????
