Dream 7/5/11 - fish extender list

[stitchy626]

we might want to think about this. right now we have 23 cabins participating representing 46 adults and about 30 kids. do we want to have a cutoff? otherwise people might have a big expense and have to travel with a lot of FE gifts? I want to go to the main thread and update everyone but that could get a lot more people interested in doing this.

Although I'd hate to leave anyone out, my budget needs a cutoff or I will have to bow out. Maybe something like xx# of cabins or xxdate which ever comes first?

Hi guys! I think we need a cutoff too... This is getting to be a lot of people and I'd like to do a nice gift, but with many more, the budget won't allow!
I finally decided on our FE gifts, and will need time to make them all too.

When we do have a cutoff, I will then need names and favorite Disney characters for each, if you're willing to give those so I can personalize our FE gifts! I'll ask once we cutoff so I can make a list! Thank you!
Can't wait!!!

Here are the cabin numbers for our group of three cabins:
Me, DH, DD-5, DS-3 - Cabin #6662
The grandparents - Cabin #6664
Uncle Jim - Cabin #6660

Thanks!

Ellen, Thank you so much for keeping up with all of this! So very appreciated!

Oh, how exciting!!! I think I am as excited as my DS7!!! My DH has not yet grasped the whole FE idea...but once we are on the cruise and the surprises start showing up, I think he will get it! He has already told me that I will need a separate suit case to bring all of our magnets and FE gifts my DS and I are making! I enjoy it and it passes the time quickly. When the cruise is over, I will need help going thru the withdrawel period!

Ha! I know! I will need a withdrawl period afterwards too... except that I'm already trying to convince by husband that we should choose another Disney cruise in 2012 to book while we're on this one, so I have something else to plan for! Let's keep our fingers crossed!

I will - for you and I both!! My DH booked this cruise when we sailed on the Wonder last March (has it been a only a year? seems much longer!!) - hoping he will be inspired to do so again in July!

Hi Marcy, your cabin numbers have been added.

 

[ejw]

I'll PM the rest of the people on our list and see if they are still doing the exchange.

We're still in!!

Hi all!

I thought I had posted my cabin number, but didn't see it on the list. It is # 5515.

I've got some ideas, but will probably check the main list for more, lol.

 

[lgcountry]

Yeah! We all get to be those "special passengers!" I have so many ideas for the FE gifts, but can't decide yet! Ha! It'll depend on how many people, I guess!
It's nice to know it's the first FE exchange for a few of us then!

Also, we'd like to sign up one other cabin for the FE exchange.
It will be 3 adults, my parents are actually in one cabin and my brother in another, but I think they're going to have just ONE FE, with 3 pockets, so it'll just be on one door. I don't have the cabin #'s with me, so I will get back with those. Can someone please add them to the list? Thank you!

Does anyone here do the pin trading too? My kids are very interested, and we haven't done it yet, but I just ordered some pins and lanyards for the kids to start with! I guess they'll have to trade between the 2 of them until we go on the cruise!

We pin trade, and I'll be bringing all three of our lanyards, but I don't know if my DH and DS will wear theirs. LOL, I'll just trade off theirs if the don't.

Too funny! My DH isn't interested in the pin trading for himself, but loves to see the kids running around with theirs. I am so excited I'm tempted to get a lanyard for myself... Hmmm....maybe I will!

 

[lgcountry]

Do get one! It's a lot of fun, and a great conversation starter. I really enjoy trading, and it's so much fun to get or give the "perfect" pin.

Please confirm you are still in the FE exchange if you have not already done so.

thanks, ellen

So excited that I just had to share....

My FE holder came today and I'm paid in full.

I can't belive we are almost down to double digits. It feels like not that long ago my countdown was showing over 500 days to go. Now I just have to finish up on my gifts and wait for the 75 day mark to come so I can book excursions I still can't believe that my dream to sail on DCL and swim with dolphins is about to come true

over the weekend we went to Michaels and picked up the supplies to start making our FE gifts.

also ordered magnetic paper from amazon for our cabin door magnets.
