ME TOO!

Note to self: Do not tell Mike what day we're having Brunch.

Although I am not lucky enough to have one of those categories..I am renewing my wedding vows and am supposed to be allowed as a perk to book next weekend. I am ready to go..just not sure it will work!

My DD has the Romance package for their Honeymoon cruise in June, even though they're in a Cat 7, and she was able to book her things at the 105 day mark. You should be fine.

I agree! We had the Roy for the 10nt I know they say it sleeps 7 but.....we got oldest ds & dd (they are in their 20's) their own room (a Cat 8) and then we had the 3 younger children with us. I would NOT have wanted all of those bodies in there to sleep! Eating breakfast together was fine.....



It wouldn't bother me, either! The only reason dh wanted a suite is because he wants 2 bathrooms --- our 3 left at home are 17dd, 10ds & 6dd. We don't want minor children in a seperate stateroom and dh & I aren't going to split up for 15nts! LOL! We have been known to sleep boys in one room and girls in another for a night or two on vacation but, that's my limit!

That's why we did the suites....to have separate bedrooms and separate beds for our teen DD and teen DS. And there are times we split boys/girls too. And we weren't comfortable with them having their own room either.
Now that our numbers are dwindling.....DD has hit that stage where she doesn't want to go (she'll change her tune in another couple years, the oldest did)...we can go back down to a smaller room. I'm happy to save the $$$ for fun stuff like the Spa!!

Thanks! We wanted the REAS pkg but they weren't offering it on the cruise so DH surprised me with the VR.

Yes, and I really try to be more understanding than my folks were. Ya know, the 'ole slap upside the head accompanied by the, oh so compassionate, "SNAP OUT OF IT"

 

[radioclash2]

Happy Monday everyone !!

 

[sk8ingmom]

16 Mondays until TOAL.

I doubt I'll ever get caught up. In-laws still have pay-by-the minute AOL dial up, so no Dising from there. Kid's First Communion went well. We had a nice little party afterwards. Deacon Grandpa & Eucharistic Minister Grandma managed to position themselves in the right place to serve the kids. I'll post pictures later.

From what I recall from lurking -

Monica, I'm so sorry about your accident. I hope you got checked out. I know when I was rear ended years ago I felt fine until about 8 hours later, then I went to the Dr. because I couldn't move my neck.

Rgoer - I'm sorry about your pain in the neck.

I'm excited about t-*****! Thanks Esteri.

Looks like everyone had a blast at Philly Star Wars / Castaway Cay adventure.

Kristina and Laurie - Wegmans, huh? Sounds good to me if they have wine!

Kid Journals - please volunteer on The Pirate Zone. I started a thread on the pre-cruise/LA part of the board & I am not nearly organized enough to keep track of all of this in 2 places. I think all the port days are covered right now, but we need sea day volunteers. All the info, including pages that still need volunteers is in the first post.

Oh, and when I go, just dump me in Cook Inlet. I've always wanted to be buried at sea. I hate cemetaries. Go to the beach and think about me.

Hear, Hear Crew!​

The Quartermaster be takin’ pre-orders for soft goods. Here be how it’s done.

Go to http://thepiratezone.info/zencart

You’ll be needin’ to git yerself a logon and password. Piracy, oops, Privacy is assured. Yer information’ll only be used to git yer goods to you. Any other use is cause fer walkin’ the plank!

READ the first page. Aye. Readin’ is difficult for us Pirates, but there be important information there. So, sit yerself down ‘n READ it! ‘Sides the Quartermaster spent a lot ‘o time puttin’ it together and ye should look at it!

If ye still got questions, ask ‘em. Likely someone else’s got ‘em too.

Jus’ remember – this is the pre-order to git an overall count ‘n set prices. Ye be havin’ to go to the site once more t’ make yer actual order.


Argh!

The Quartermaster

Do we know how the sizes run? I looked at both the first page of this thread and the link you provided but it doesn't mention if the tshirts are more fitted or run bigger. If anyone can let me know so that when we place the actual order I will know what sizes to order

Thanks

Hear, Hear Crew!​

Thanks so much for doing this, Esteri!

My question: are we also doing the wristband ordering at the same time? I thought there was an idea of sending the wristbands with the ts***s?

 

[poohmomof5]

Hello everyone,, its been many many months since I was last on here.. so busy in that thing called life...

Glad to announce the cruise is all paid for and airfair is already booked.

I have been trying to catch up with the posts but thats useless...

Been on the Pirates webpage and reading alot of usful info... thanks to all that made that possible!!!

I hope to be here more often.... but time will tell.

Looking forward to mtg more of you and getting to know you a bit more..

Thanks
Doreen

Welcome back Doreen!

Congrats on PIF!!!

I do so love the Pirates webpage too! I ditto the thanks!!!

Have a great week everyone. My boss is out of town for the week so I am high rank at the office! I love it!!!!! It makes the week a lot more productive. Sad, but true! I went into my calendar and deleted all the meetings I don't have to go to and my week looks so much more survivable!

More time to plan!

We have been known to sleep boys in one room and girls in another for a night or two on vacation but, that's my limit!

We have the same problem!!!! We have 2 teen boys and 1 teen and 1 preteen daughter and little DD3. So we have to split up all the time if we can't get connecting rooms. Luckily we got connecting cabins on this cruise! If we wouldn't have, I don't think we would have gone!

Good Monday Morning everyone! Hope everyone has a great day!

My question: are we also doing the wristband ordering at the same time? I thought there was an idea of sending the wristbands with the ts***s?

Logistic issues make it difficult if not impossible to combine the wristbands with the T-shirts. More details on wristbands to follow....

 

[Esteri]

Thanks

I've got a note into our printer asking for the actual sizing information. Will update the item, and let everyone here know when I get that information. The sizing on the Ladies stuff is already there.

Based on the samples we got - the shirts run on the roomy side.

Thanks so much for doing this, Esteri!

My question: are we also doing the wristband ordering at the same time? I thought there was an idea of sending the wristbands with the ts***s?

I haven't heard either way. The folks doing the wristbands know what I can do for them, but it just might make things more complicated.

White vs. Black T-****?

There is only one place to pre-order t-****, if I want 2 black and 2 white, should I put 4 in?
