Good Morning Cruisers!!! Only 57 days till we set sail!! Only today and tomorrow before my school year begins - boy, am I glad I can down the 57 days with this sitting on top of me!!!!! I am SOOOOOOOO looking forward to this cruise!!!!

57 days and still no cabin assignment for us! I should have known I was too impatient to book a GTY cabin!

 

[kamgen]

Good morning! I guess I better kick my butt into gear or I wont fit into my cute cruising clothes!!! LOL!

Jen- we will stay in our group, but we are going to add Tikimimi and Tikimack to our list personally since they are such good friends of ours And I promise more than dryer sheets, even though they do smell nice!

Wow!!! we're getting close guys.
Jen... When doing the FE spreadsheet may I have a list of both groups 1 & 2 because I'm doing for everyone. Thanks

On our Member Cruise, the person organizing the FE list passed out a list of the names and cabins at the meet we had on the ship that first day. This way all changes for GTY cabins and such were noted at the meet and we could make the adjustments and check to make sure everyone's information was correct - just an idea.

Its been kind of a slow rainy day here in South Carolina. So we've been dreaming about our cruise and getting in the spirit by putting together some FE goodies! We're having a blast - and the kids are loving it too!

Only problem... we may need an extra suitcase to haul it all! Uh oh!!!

Been getting serious about the FE gifts today - I think I have it figured out. Jen, since cut-off is tomorrow, does that mean you'll post a final list tomorrow or wait till Monday?

Well, I am having problems with the final one since I wont have room numbers until the gty people get them. Can those that are on gty status give me the categories? I guess I can do that or just randomly put them in a group. I was trying to make it easy on everyone and group the decks together so no one is going all over the ship to drop off their stuff.

Well wouldn't ya know it my little one found my FE box of goodies, and her eyes lit up like the Magic Kingdom at night. She was so excited about her find. Good thing I bought one of each of the children items for her.

I am proud to say however, after I explained to her what they were for and that they were gifts for our new friends on the boat she was ok with that and added toys from her toy box to my FE box ).

Note to self- put the box up, next time might not go the same way... lol

Jen, funny story,
when I first start looking through this site and forum, I saw that you mentioned Jordack several times. I thought that he was your husband that you gave your Honey Do list to, to make all the graphics and magnets.

I found out today, that he is not your DH, but just a cool guy that makes magnet designs and other cool stuff... (so embarrassed... I got him thinking he was your DH a FE gift.

Hi Jen! We're in a GTY category 10...

Since I opted to do something for every stateroom,I think delivering the FE gifts to everyone will be my motivation to walk all over the ship (something I wouldn't usually do). So it can be a good thing after all

Hey Jen - just wanted to let you know that we got our FE in the mail yesterday and looooove it! I am studying for the CPA exam right now, but after that's over (August 21) I am trying to work up the motivation to start a pre-trip/trip report and will post pics there.

Cannot wait for this cruise! My husband and I were able to travel a LOT when we first got married, but in the past year Baby Alex came and travel has become a little more challenging. Add that to the fact that my husband had to travel a bunch for residency last year. So in short we have still travelled a bunch in the last year, just nothing for FUN. Since our vacations will be cut back, at least until Alex gets a little older, they mean so much more to us. I'm not complaining, I love my son and cannot wait to show him the world. I just wanted to explain how much this trip means to us!

Oh im so glad!! I am sorry it took so long to do. People kill me waiting until 2 weeks before their cruise to say "oh I GOTTA have it!" grrr anyway, thanks for being patient. And I know how you feel about not being able to travel much. I was never a big traveler but Florida was a once a year thing until my daughter came. Since then we have been to Florida twice and Gatlinburg maybe 5 times? This one is over the top for us and extremely special. But since I seem to be having more money now a days (no school payments and a second job), then travel is going to be MORE frequent. There are many trade offs being a mom. And I am sure you know, as every parent on here, it is sooooo totally worth it.

 

[JenGC]

sorry double post. I have seen that error message a lot here lately

 

[honeymo78]

Stephanie... Are you still not hanging a FE? I'm working on something right now and was just wondering. Thanks

I think we'll have something. DH isn't 100% convinced but I'm working on it.
