Any Magic Halloween Cruisers 2003 out there?

["Ginger"]

Thanks Andy, I knew they could find me some how.

 

[KEH]

Ginger, it doesn't sound as if we would have much time between the lifeboat drill and the sailaway to get together. I think the promenade lounge was the original idea for the meet. What does anyone think - should we meet in the lounge to get Carolyn's name tags and then head on up to deck 10 to join Ginger or should we just aim to meet on deck 10?

Karen

 

[carole88]

I vote for meeting on deck 10. Since this is our first cruise, we don't want to miss the sail away.

"Ginger" (I just noticed the quotes on your name) - Do we call you Ginger or Cecelia?

 

[KEH]

Yes, me too.

 

[paulmc80]

Poohbush - Yes, my wife is in the military. And I do very dearly miss her. (even though she picks on me. well, maybe because she pics on me.) LOL

 

[NADTWINS]

Ginger,
You mentioned that you will have a two way radio. I am thinking of getting a pair or two so that my wife and kids and I could keeep in touch on the ship. How well do they work on the ship? Are they worth getting do they work well inside or just outside?
(yes belive it or not another husband, Not a card player but I my arm could be twisted to drink a beer or two!) Could you also let us Know what to put in the goodie bags just candy(no peanuts)or litle nick nacks?
We got our docs. yesterday, I got a kick out of reading the contract in the back pretty "slick" !

 

[dzneprincess]

NO NO NO! I refuse to call you anything but GINGER! You are not Cecelia..................

GINER GINGER GINGER....

GOT IT?!?!?!?!

 

[buzz&woody'smom]

Me too Dena but Cecelia is a beautiful name But Ginger and everyone else I plan out putting candy and little Halloween prizes" in my bags....................

Tiffiny and yes that is Tiffiny AKA Buzz& Woody's Mom or this year I guess PeterPan& CaptainHook'sMom

I tried some things on 5 year old DS for cruise semi and formal nights and he looks like a little man

 

[Poohbush]

Tiff, why the frowny face for your "little man?" Is it cause he's growing so fast?
And my MIL is recovering from her surgery. Her spirits are good, but we're all sort of waiting for the day when the whole idea of her having breast cancer will sink in and hit her hard. She'll start chemo after the cruise. Thanks for asking.

paulmc80, what branch of military is your wife in? My father is retired Air Force, and my FIL is retired Navy. Both me and my DH are used to the military life. Sometimes it feels strange to live in one place for more than a few years. Just seems like we should be on the move anytime now!

Emma, I know what you mean about the excitement! Less than a month now til the cruise! Yippee!

Hope everyone has a nice weekend!

 

[buzz&woody'smom]

Hey Poohbush-Yes he is 5 in Kindergarten and all grown up, sometimes when I go pick him up I do a doubletake bc I can not believe how tall and little boy like he is. He is wearing a suit and a little blue blazer with oxford etc. and it just shocks me that he looks like a tiny version of my DH. Luckily I have my 2 year old DS that I can still dress like a baby, that is a big baby. He is 2 years & 3 months and I had to potty train him bc he was in the biggest size pampers there is 6! He is 35 pounds and over 36 1/2 inches

Prayers for your MIL and I hope our cruise is just the relaxation and distraction she needs.

I have skin cancer and was diagnosed 5 years ago when my oldest was 5 weeks old. Cancer of any type is a ugly experience but really it can make you appreciate life and each day more. My DH's Grandmother has terminal lung cancer and is 80, she is in the hospital right now and not suppose to make it thru the night. Everyone say a prayer that she is in peace please.

Paulmc80, my DH is a Marine Officer with 18 years in and probably a minimum of 2 left maybe 5...........thanks to your wife for serving this wonderful country

Tiff

 

[Poohbush]

Tiff, a prayer for you and your family.

Call me Ginger.
Nadtwins we have Cobra 2 ways. So far no problems using them aboard, in or out of the stateroom. You do have to locate a channel that works for you and your partner, meaning one that not already being used by another family on board. Bill and I have different taste with it comes to doing thing on board this way we can keep up with each other with roaming the whole ship looking for one and another.

You don't even have to twist my DH's arm to drink a beer he brings 2 cases of his favorite brew with him. I can't complain cause I bring a blender and my own fixins. Actually, we are not big drinkers but on vacation I do enjoy a few frozen drinks a day. We save big on bringing our own. Don't get me wrong I'm not cheating DCL they get it from me in the way of Bingo and other things.
I vote for deck 10 too. We could all look for the Dolphins.

Hey!!! You all have a great day. I'm off to work.

 

[mdvasquez]

Hey everyone its been a few days since Ive posted and as usual, you all have been chatting up a storm!

Tiff: prayers for your MIL and for you and your DH to get through this tough time.

We got our amnio results back and every thing came back normal!!YEA I did not want to hear what the sex of the baby was over the phone while I was home by myself, so we still don't know what we have.

Nadtwins: We have 2 way radios as well, and bring them everytime. Ours were not a real expensive brand, but still work quite well on board. They don't work from deck 10 down to 2, but my daughter takes one with her and whenever and wherever she is going from one place to the next, she manages to get in touch with me to let me know. We also use them for the first day when we are making ressies everywhere!

I also vote to move our meeting place to deck 10 at sailaway, that sounds like fun.

My DH was in the Navy for 4 years before I met him. He is a little shy about meeting new people, but LOVES to talk to military people!

GINGER: Adriannes stateroom for TorT is 5012.

Well, the humidity has finally hit us here in FLA. Sept started out very mild this year and I thought we would get away with no humidity, but boy was I wrong!!

Well, thats all of my news for now.
Dena

 

[paulmc80]

Thanks for your listing of the ToT list Ginger! It looks great.

Poohbush - My wife is Army (well full-time Army Reserve actually). She has about 17 years in full-time now and just that bit more to round it out. Reason why I'm here and she's over there. I work for a children's services program with the courts here.

buzz&woody'smom - Hey, what a coincidence. I shop at the Kaneohe Marine Corps Barracks right here near my house. Got to say, its one of the most beautiful places on this island.


We're anxiously looking forward to the cruise! Should be lots and lots of fun!

 

[Masonpips]

A quick hi to some of my friends from last year! Looks like you have the TorT going strong (WOW, tons of folks!). We will be at the Radisson on 10/31 eagerly waiting for you guys to get off the ship for OUR TURN! We're doing a little Halloween party of our own, looks like we'll have 20 kiddos or so!

Hope you have a BLAST and congrats to mdvasquez!'

ENJOY YOUR CRUISE!!!

 

[KEH]

Hi Debbie (Masonpips) - good to hear from you. Why are you not on our cruise? How about next Halloween? We would love to see you again. Hope your cruise is great too but there may be some marks on the deck and rails where we have hung on refusing to go.

Weill I don't know about Karen, but I definitely plan to be aboard the 11-01 sailing as I willbe scouting out the perfect stowaway spot the whol 7 days I am on board

I can't believe we are getting so close! We are so excited here! I keep thinking I am done shopping, and then I think of something else I need. Does anyone else's spouse think they are a bit looney for all this planning?? Last night,my smart alec DH came home from work, saw me on the DIS and said, " Well whats new in the World??!!" Me " Well I am reading the cruise boards" him in a mock shocked voice " You mean you have a different board from the park to the cruise??!?!? Dont you run out of things to say?!?!"
Thats ok tho, he will get his
Want to hear something funny? I was really "gotten" good today by my CRAZY coworker!

I have not had anyone ask to see my lisence for some time now. I used my Disney Visa today and the lady asked for picture ID. I showed it to hear and she says, OOPS you got a little something on your picture hun, did you husband do that? I looked at picture and my coworker drew a MOUSTACHE on my picture!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It wont come off!!! I was so embarrased, he says it has been that way for a month, and I know I have used it within the month! Who knows what other cashiers had to think! LOL Thats ok tho too! He also has his coming too!

I just thought you all would get a kick out of my humiliation! LOL

 

[Verandah Man]

Hmm, you just gave me an idea!!! LOL!!!

What a riot!!! LOL!!!

 

[dzneprincess]

Ok evil Andy, that post was not meant inspire evil intending husbands or coworkers It was meant to give some of my fellow disers a laugh at my expense


I had better call Hazel and give her a warning
