Happy Monday Everyone!

I will try to come back on and do some replies later but for now I just have a couple of minutes to check in before I have to get going to work.

Thanks to everyone for all the good luck wishes....our half marathon went really well. DH and I finished in 2:17. I will honestly say that the first part of the race was great for me but the last part really challenged me. There were some hills at the end that really kicked my behind! I am still happy with our time because last year we finished in 2:22 so at least we are improving.

Recitals went great as well. It is always kind of sad when the dance year comes to and end but in 2 weeks the kids will begin summer dance and it all starts over again!

School ends on Wednesday for DD and DD. School for me ends on Friday but I have about 2 weeks of extra projects I will be working on in June so I don't really "finish" yet. DH has to go until next week.

Jen, great job on your marathon!! I sure wish I could run!! Randy has been running. He wants to do the 5K at CC. I wish I could join him in the run but I just came to the conclusion that my ankle won't let that happen.:sad2:

SO glad the recitals went well!
Hopefully these next couple of weeks of work go by quickly for you so you can enjoy some time off with the rest of your family!
 
Hey Candy,

Were you guys able to get bathing suits??

You and I can sit and chat while we watch everyone running the 5K!!
 
Hope everyone is enjoying their Monday,.

We only have 9 more days of school here but who is counting. Two of them are half days so that will be nice. Who knows maybe, the school year will be over quicker than I think if I have to have foot surgery!!:lmao::rotfl2:

:hug::hug::hug: DO NOT even think about NOT CRUISING with all of us !!! :grouphug:
NO WAY we could let you stay home !!!! :hug:

Stay positive :lovestruc and you will be on the Dream :love:
... before you know it !!!!!

Lol I've done my part to help the British economy this weekend , but Dave needs to do his part still! ( he hates shopping, especially clothes shopping) we are having the ' do I need to pack a tie argument at the moment.

What do you guys think? We are doing Palo & Remy . If I get him to buy a new suit and a couple of shirts would he ok without a tie? I looked up on dcl website and it does not say a tie is compulsory ( even though I would prefer him to have one)
:mad:
He says it really spoils his evening:rolleyes1

What do you think? Arghhh lol

Helen, I think if the tie is not required, then he should be ok without one. What you might want to do is pack a tie, just in case, and he would only need to wear it if asked to.
 

Hey Candy,

Hey there Kristin! No bathing suit yet! We are going to go out and look today. We are spending the day with Amber and the kids!

Are you done with school for the day?

Ha, you ain't gonna see me running! You'll find my butt in chair or on a float!


Hi erika,
I asked on the main cruise thread forum about this. The reply I got said you paid $20 and you get to taste 4 or 5 different champagnes including the signature one for pink! :love:

think we are going to do it!


Yummy!!!!!!!!! I just wondering how I will be feeling after that LOL! I wish you could share a tasting, pay as a couple and then share the samples. Seems like a large amount of alcohol for 1 person.

Hey Erika, I'm thinking I'm going to be doing the same thing!! LOL

Are we going to be up on deck 11? Is that the right deck on the Dream! I'll have my bottled water in hand!! LOL

Ditto! Way too hot to run and since I have plantar's faciaitis in both feet, my running/walking days are gone (not that they were really ever with me, but a girl could try occasionally ;)).

Pixie dust to you, Kristin. Don't even think of not going. You'll just be EXTRA pampered on the ship.

LOL, heck yeah!! Not sure if that's the deck or not, but we'll find it. We need another lovely picture of our bottle filled table. Who else is gonna come with us to fill it up?

Definitely!! That was so much fun!! Randy will be there!! Is Steve going have a bag o' beer?? LOL
We need people to come and contribute to filling up that table with bottles!

We will have no trouble filling up a table with bottles. My DH is a bit of a beer snob (since spending almost 1 year in London a few years back). He plans on bringing an entire carry on full of "good beer", like Chimay, Dogfish Head 90 min and not sure what else. He's even packing his special Dogfish glasses because you can't drink beer in the wrong glass...:rotfl2:

Last cruise I had Shirley send a basket to the ship with the beer and glasses, but her prices are getting a bit steep so we'll be carrying them on ourselves. ABC liquors in Cape Canaveral has a bunch of the beers he likes. We didn't have a problem bringing beer into public spaces, even his bottles. I don't drink beer so I still order beverages from the bar and the wine package or bottles at dinner.
 
:rotfl2: Dave could borrow a GRUMPY tie from Marco !!! ;)
My DGH has plenty of Grumpy ties and also many ties with VERY SMALL Mickey Mouse icons ...
Even on formal nights ... :confused3 NO WAY that I can talk him into wearing a serious tie !!! ( I'll never ever wear a business tie :mad: while I'm on vacation , DGH states every Summer !!!)

:idea: BUT he happily wears a tie with a Disney theme on it !! :woohoo:

OK... I no longer consider MY hubby a beer snob. :rotfl: Yours has mine beat. Since we're taking a rental car, maybe we'll have to stop for libations before the port. Hmmm Even MORE to think about.

wow I have plantar faciatis and noone I know has heard about it.

LOL - I know what you mean - I did a wine tasting on our last cruise and at the end of it I was very giggly.:rotfl:

I am so in for the champagne tasting!!! See you there.

Thanks, great idea about thinking of myself on the Dream. Only thing is I might get sad thinking about it in case I can't go. Not sure I want to be going if I have to be in a cast and all....

Kristin, I hope you don't need surgery. If so, I'm sure you will have plenty of volunteers to help push you around the ship! :thumbsup2 Plus if you are going to WDW after the cruise you can do a whole park in half a day, I had a hurt foot and was in a wheelchair several years ago and it was amazing how fast we were done with everything in the park. We just kinda looked at each other and were like what do we do now???

Ok, so dummy me, trying to convince myself I didn't have to have the vinylmation signed. It's not working :rotfl:. So, to prevent me from digging through a gazzillion pages, anyone want to fill me in on the current status on where, if anywhere we can still get them??

Here's the thread I started about where to get them..... http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=2730396
I just got mine in the mail today, I can't wait to have it signed, good luck with your search!

Laura have you seen this Grumpy tie? http://www.disneystore.com/ties-silk-grumpy-tie/mp/1284268/1000299/
The best part is that it's on sale!
