Hi Ladies!!
Sorry I wasn't around yesterday - but I PACKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well - I didn't pack EVERYTHING - just my stuff (and Ant's), and I do have some things that I left to the side that I will use between now and then, but, I made a list so I don't forget!
So - I have a question - who is getting 'dressed up' on dress up night? And how dressy are you getting?
Ant has decided to wear his pirate costume from last halloween for pirate night - so, good for him! I have to get Dominic a shirt to wear and Carm too! I have something for myself - a shirt I got last year in WDW.
Anyway - all of my crap is on the bed in the spare room. I found some stuff in my closet/drawers, some more stuff in a tote that I brought up at the beginning of summer, and some stuff that I bought - and I returned A LOT of things too! So I am DONE - all I need is some kind of coverup for my BIG bathing suits!! LOL Oh and MAYBE a new pair of sneakers so I can exercise on the boat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YEAH RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I got all of Ant's stuff together too - he was EASY! I just need to get him some new underwear/socks and a few tanks/shirts to go w/bathing suits and he is DONE!
Carm has to do his own - and I just have to go through Dominic's - he need A LOT more than Ant did. So, hopefully I'll get through his things this week so I can hit the stores!
Anyway - enough of my rambling.....
Mandy - WTG on the 2 pounds! It always seems to come off easier when you aren't obsessing over it, right? 4 weeks and airline tix - this is coming SOOOOO fast! It will be 4 weeks from Tuesday for me!!
Michele - WTG on the 4 pounds! It was great talking to you this morning - so much easier than typing!!
Sandy - hope you are having fun at the dismeets - can't wait to hear about it when you get back~
Danielle - good luck w/bball this weekend! Have fun shopping!
Jen - have fun w/your camp cleaning! Just think of all the bahama mamas you are earning! LOL
Suz - WTG on the tan! I need to get out there too! LOL I just hate being outside!!
Veronica - where have you been? How is the birthday plans coming along?
Betty - you were right FI was great! We wound up signing up to become members for the year. The pirate exhibit wasn't what I thought it was going to be (and I mean that in a good way) - you know me, I walk in signing "yo ho, yo ho a pirates life for me" - but it was nothing like that - it was very interesting!! We are actually going back tomorrow w/my mom to check it out! You should meet us over there?!?!?!?!?
I will post some pics from our Franklin Institute/Philly trip - we actually went to see the Liberty Bell too! Quite the tourists we are!! Mind you I live 15 miles from Philly and have never seen these things!!
I will upload to photobucket and send some in a few!
Hope everyone has a great weekend! We are having some friends over tonight for a little 'gathering' - so, it should be fun - and the sangria will be flowing!
