4ollies, how old are your boys?

coasterfiend, I've never seen the turkey legs anywhere on the ship but at the pirate buffet. Actually I've never seen them at the pirate buffet either, only in other people's pics! (we've only been on the dessert side of the buffet - my goal next cruise is to make it to the other side! lol)

pakey, you're in better shape than us - we still don't have a flight home yet! Still hoping Southwest comes through with a great deal...

 

[4Ollies]

My boys will be seven in January. They are currently counting down the weeks until their birthday in December. Sounds less than counting days to them LOL.

 

[natale1980]

I just tried to rebook our cruise on Disney's Web page and it came up $3 less then we paid. Not enough to make a deal over... but I thought that the price went up - not down! Thats why I booked over 6 months ago.

And Check SW air today!! They just started another great sale!!!

[4Ollies]

I must be in the only market that SW keeps raising the prices. Delta was several hundred dollars less for our trip. Noticed on the last sale this weekend that the flights were even more expensive than they were two weeks ago. See other areas that have great deals going into Orlando. Jealous of those people. LOL

 

[hm21999]

4ollies - i am also in one of those wierd SW markets - i check everyday - i get their email alerts when their sales start hoping that this will be the one! and i look - same deal either the flight out is less but the flight we want back is higher - oh well - it is now part of my am ritual - brush teeth, check sw, pack lunch - i keep saying my just like nat mantra

 

[Pakey]

Just wanted to post that my fish extenders I got from ebay came in today and they are so cute. Now I'm even extra glad I did not try to make them myself. Tomorrow I'm off to my mom's to do shirt transfers. I found out today that she has a professional large press (she does lots of crafts) so I won't have to actually iron them. Since I don't own an iron, this is definitely to my benefit.

 

[natale1980]

I keep on checking every day to see if my GTY turned into a room number. No such luck yet.
At least I know I'm going to be on the ship!!! Who cares what room!
We are almost 2 months away!!! It is so exciting!

I had a dream the other night that we were on our Disney trip and I had forgotten to make some crafty things with the LGMH. So in my dream I turned to Shawn and said, "I can't believe I forgot! I would be really mad right now, if this wasn't a dream!"
I guess I don't sleep very hard!

[natale1980]

Here's my first door sign!

I also am going to make t-shirts out of it... but they will say.

"My wife surprised me with a Disney Cruise!"
or
"My mommy surprised me with a Disney Cruise!"

It's one of the gifts I'm going to give Shawn in the big 'surprise'. I'm going to make everyone wear them on Thursday.

Nat, that's so cool!!! I love it! What program do you use for the photo letters?

Yes, it must be getting close, I'm starting to have dreams about it too! I had a dream that me & DH went on the cruise and left the older 2 kids at home because they said they wanted to stay home to go see Bolt at the movie theater & not on the ship and we thought they were being ungrateful! When we got to the ship I was so upset with my DH because we actually left them home (we did take the little guy with us though). Who knows what that's all about?!!

natale1980 - 4 people (2 kids - DS3.5, DD1)

Is everyone ready for the holidays? I get off easy for Thanksgiving - I don't have to cook!

Welcome!
Are you going to go to Disney World on the 28th to get your free day in the park (or gift card)?

-nat

 

[Pakey]

Nat, way to go on the door sign. I've got a few made already. I had to stop because I ran out of stuff in my xyron machine to do magnets. I have purchased another roll now so it's time to get going again. I've got 5 doors to do so everyone is just getting a couple. I've also got 2 shirts done for everyone. One is for our first day at WDW and one is for pirate night. I've got one more set to make for our first day on the cruise. All this while working all kinds of hours because it's year end at work.

pfishgirl, hope to see you on the cruise.

 

[pfishgirl]

-nat

Yes, we do have APs already, but we are going to try and be in WDW on both our birthdays

 

[natale1980]

Very cool!! Do you know how much of a gift card they give you? That would be great that you both get one!! Can't ask for anything more then that!!

-nat

 

[samily]

Welcome pfishgirl! Did you guys end up booking?

By the way you share a bday with my DD! Don't know if we are going to WDW when we get off the ship though...

From what I read, it is the Value of a 1 day 1 park admission..

Thanks, Not yet.. We discussed it last night, but we were kinda trying to figure out if we can swing a later cruise, in order to get the $99 cruise too


Awww we share a birthday.. How cool..

 

[samily]

Yes, I'm a little bummed that we just miss the $99 offer, but we already had our flight down & time off work, etc. so we left things as is. Good luck with whatever you decide!

Have a safe & happy Thanksgiving everyone!!

 

[hm21999]

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!!!
