Yay !! It's 11 Months till Our Cruise ​

How are you Suzanne ? What have you been up to ?

Well it's been fun and games over here today. My little town Nuneaton, has been on the local and national news, as we had a tornado hit about 1/2 a mile away from where we live. We were all woken about 6.15am, and there was torrential rain and it was so noisy too. I jokingly said to Paul that a hurricane had just gone by - but it wasn't till hours later that we found out about the tornado, as trees had been blown down and there was a lot of debris about

Thankfully no-one was hurt, and it didn't affect us at all

Hello all
This will be our second cruise. We did our last cruise in august as well we did the land and sea)just doing the 4 day cruise this time it was to much last time. I am michele, hubby is jeff, daughters nicole 16, sarah 14, and son austin 11 will be doing a cat 3 midship. We were so spoiled from the last suite we had to do it again. i just have to put in a few more hours at work now to pay for the extra expense. Hope to get to know u all a little bit better as the cruise approaches.

I always like to have Christmas organised by the beginning of November, which I'm pleased about now, as I've got my trip to obsess about

Afternoon Mandy
You have inspired me to start christmas shopping a little earlier this year. I am going to hit the disney store tomorrow and maybe hot topic for my older daughter. The disney store is more for my christmas gifts to me though. Hehe.

Bye

Evening Michele (it's 9.40pm over here)

My girls love Hot Topic too, I had to order them some T-shirts for Christmas on-line

Have fun shopping

Hey Suzanne, it's great to hear from you

I can't believe that it's only 5 weeks till our trip, it's coming round so quick, so thank goodness I've got Christmas sorted as I would be panicking now

What are your plans for today ? I think hubby and I will head off to a shopping mall for a browse (I'm not planning on buying anything) - but that's about it

Have a great day

LOL Suzanne, the only thing left for me to buy is the Surfs Up DVD that comes out in a couple of weeks But as I've got my Christmas trip to organise - all my time (and money) is taken up with that

I'm hoping to buy my Christmas tree over the weekend, and I'm putting it up next weekend

Good Luck with getting those other 100 pressies

Have a great weekend girls, have you got anything nice planned ?

 

[mandymouse]

I thought I'd share this with you

We are holding a Secret Christmas Decoration exchange over on the UK Community Board and I received a lovely DLP Mickey & Minnie ornament, a little bottle of White Zinfandel, a couple of Crimbo Yankee Candles, a pack of Belgian Chocolate Stirrers and a little box of Lindor Choccies

Aren't they fab ? I'm thrilled to bits and very lucky

Happy Thanksgiving to my friends in the U.S.

Have a great day everyone !!
