[MrsScooby]

Happy Wednesday everyone.

--- oooppss I forgot to hit submit this morning ------

Hate when that happens

wow, you all are amazing! I introduced myself a couple days ago, was not on again until today, and you added over 50 pages to the site! How long does it normally take you guys to catch up each day with postings (obviously showing how much of a newbie I am )

Catch up I would never admit to how much time I spend on this forum

WHEW!!!! Now that I think I have really found the end of this thread...
We are going on the cruise as of today!!!!
There will be my DH, Me, and our DDs ages 17, 15, 12 & 8.
I am going to try to catch up to speed on some of the important things that have deadlines.
Anyone have an abreviated list? Like t-shirt orders, exscursions and such?

WELCOME ABOARD

Well, I had a very exciting afternoon. My son and his school were taken to our CITY HALL and the Mayor gave a proclamation to them re: their Mock Trail Championship of our REGION. They came in 3rd place this weekend. Over 600 schools and over 8500 students competed... It makes a mom so proud... Then we were on the news as well. I got 4 phone calls in a row.. Like my family didnt know I was there as well...lol

Congrats to your DS

I love the flavored ones, not so much the real ones. Appletini, Cosmo, etc is my preference....woooo whoooo.

Mango martinis are my current favorite

I'm still amazed. It can be over 50 pages easily in a day sometimes, especially with the pirate runs. My DW wants to try to jump in, but is overwhelmed right now.

Happy belated Birthday!

I've been practicing saying "I'm 40" for the last couple of weeks as well as the "40 is the new 30" and neither has made it any easier. Tonight my DS (13) asked me if I was going through a mid-life crisis, I asked him what gave it away.

Happy belated birthday as well and thanks to everyone on the birthday wishes! Not sure about a mid-life crisis, but I'm glad we're doing this TOAL! We almost backed out a few months ago due to cost, but I'm glad we're going through with it as you only live once!!!

Monica,

Thank you so much for putting together the excursion lists on the pirate zone!!!

I shared that with my family tonight and it made us even more excited about the trip, if that's possible!

I don't know where some of you get the time to do all of this, but I'm sure thankful you do!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARTY

OK- Listen up folks- American airlines has decided as of June 15th to charge for the FIRST bag checked
Does not say if they are grandfathering exisitng tickets yet. They better!

Bull Hockey!!!!

 

[dahuffy]

How in the heck can you NOT check bags????? I travel WITH CHILDREN I'm not using carry ons for lugguage!!!!!

I don't think I can carry on 2 weeks worth of clothes!

 

[eeyorelvr10]

Hey guys!

Just FYI - tomorrow is Cabo and should be getting in around 8 - tendering starts then - last tender to the ship is 8 pm and tomorrow is also night and fireworks. OK - off to update my blog.

 

[Stepht5]

Yeah and they are Athiests, right??? - ETA- that's the IL's. Guess your Dad can have his nutcracker.

LOL! My family is pretty religious -- we are all Catholic. My Athiest IL's are Republicans. Breaks the mold on that whole *religious right* thing doesn't it?

 

[rillsung]

So do we get snail mail from Disney saying that we're going on the cruse?? How long does that take?

 

[captaincrash]

Please don't set your expectations real high...

If it makes you feel any better M ... my expectations have ALWAYS been pretty low with ya'....

< wink >​

And while I'm at it ... may I offer ...

to everyone I've missed. There are too many pages for me fully cover ging backwards... try as I might I've got somewhat limited time - and I'm a bit confused about what I've covered and what I've not. SO permit me this bit of short cutting and please accept my humble belated well wishes... Oh well... I'm feeling sort of moody and agitated all of a sudden for reasons that shall remain unspecified for now ... so I'm in need of a day-dream like escape = I think I'll go ebaying a bit then return here maybe....

 

[captaincrash]

I don't think I can carry on 2 weeks worth of clothes!

I'm bringing on 1 pair of everything and washing every 3rd day.... maybe.

I went shopping today (Costco) for our Memorial Day bbq! LOL!

17dd had a recital tonight - she's such a cutie! LOL! I forget that she's tall until one of the moms says something like *Is your dh really tall?*
DH is over 6' and 17dd is about 5'9". DH's neices are going to be taller then that since their mom and dad are both 6'!

I looked on the pirate zone website, and I cannot for the life of me find this. Can someone link me to it?

well in that case we should be able to recognize you at a glance- atleast every other day

Michelle, look under "Itinerary/Changes" then "Who's doing what where" then look at the second post by Monica.
