Frances sent me an email - I think we may be catless by the time I get home...
" The cats may be dead by the time you get home. In 2 hours they broke 2 ornaments and kept me awake attacking the tree. Diz ate Donald Ducks arm off!! It's mainly him. Plus they totally destroyed the wrapped present. I think we will have a minimalist and eco friendly Xmas this year. A bare tree and unwrapped presents!!!!!!"

Which is EXACTLY why our tree is in our sunroom and the door stays closed so the cat can't get in!! He's only allowed in if he's being held. It is sad we can't keep the door open and totally enjoy the room, but it is nice that the heater that's in there makes it the toastiest room in the house!

Thanks for the reminder... it's time to watch the antics of the Griswold family once again!!! Watch out for the crunchies in the Jell-o mold!

Our cats, Magic and Wonder, kept pulling the curtains down in Mom's room. Good thing we live rural since we never put them back up. Fortunately Mom is a good sport about the windows!!!!!

Sorry to interupt the chit chat but I actually have a cruise question. Since this is a different itinerary than the normal cruises is there any special info about excursions? Where do I go for that info? I know some of you were making plans for non-Disney excursions when I first checked in to this board 5 years ago (okay maybe it just seams that long ago) but what is the official timeline for this stuff. And while I am asking cruise questions....Are there many options in the kids clubs that combine the age groups? At cruise time we will have DD8, DD7 and DS4. DD8 has said on many occasions since our last Disney cruise that she doesn't want to do the kids clubs or only wants to be with her sister there.
Thanks

That reminds me of the guy on the Blue Collar Comedy Tour....is it Bill Engeval? (sp)

He's on tour, and his wife calls him to say the dog pooped in the living room. He says "I'm in GEORGIA! What am I supposed to do?" And tells her to cover it with a paper towel until he gets home....by which time the livng room will look like it's full of tiny little tents, people camped out waiting for tickets to a Garth Brooks concert!

nah, that was the lounge lizard - the one with the scotch in his hand...But, Bill Engval does have some hysterical spouse bits and his vicadin story is great!

Welcome back!!! - I just checked the Disney Cruiseline website and with the hurricane altered itineraries - there are now Costa Maya shore excursions posted which gives us some idea of what will be offered through Disney -

I don't have an answer to your Kids Club question, though...from reading perodic threads on the boards some have had success aging up or down in the various age groups since your girls are so close in age.

You're not interrupting!! Glad to see you're back!

I'm probably the least qualified to answer this, but don't want your question to get lost in the shuffle...

In terms of Cozumel excursions... who knows if DCL will even be back there by then... its still a pretty big mess! The Costa Maya DCL excursions are listed on the Costa Maya page on DCL's website...

Other than that, I can't help you out... I'm sure someone else here can. Stop in again soon!!!

Angie,

I stopped by the dance store today to get Maggie her dance bag - the ballet box is the one that Irene found...

http://www.movementconnection.com/browse.cfm/4,2608.htm

It is a "Princess Aurora" - and it does have "Princess Aurora" written all over it - of course, not the REAL princess Aurora...She found it cheaper - my store had it for $22...

Sure! It's just been awhile. I'm old, and forget stuff like that...... Just ask my wife!!

 

[McFamily2]

So what are the options if we don't go to Cozumel?

I'm lobbying for Belize!!

So what are the options if we don't go to Cozumel?

I've been wondering the same thing, but I'm not going to worry about it right now. That's extremely difficult for an obsessive/complusive planner like me. I'd love to hear some feedback on the Costa Maya excursions, too, before making any decisions of whether to go with DCL or book something on our own.

Perhaps the first ever triple play at Castaway Cay. (Okay it doesn't really rhyme but it looks like it should)
