Dream Thanksgiving cruise Nov 23, 2015

Please don't. This is my therapy! As a family lawyer who does divorce and child custody weekly I love to do crafts of all kinds although don't get to as often as I like! This cruise and particularly FE gift decisions and crafting has given me an escape that I greatly needed!! The cruise will be the ultimate getaway!
 

Hahahahahaha! Luckily we are driving so one problem solved! I have the packing material ordered so 2nd problem solved! But what to actually put the packages in --- 3rd problem not yet solved!!

You are lucky! If I lived driving distance from Disney we would go there much more often. :scratchin

I am in the same boat (literally!):joker:I need to find something to put everything in to help me distribute the gifts.

I hear you..... They are beautiful and your obviously creative and talented. I am a retired RN and haven't worked since my cancer surgery. This has been great even though I am indirectly participating (I did the FE gifts for my daughter and her family to give out and my son and his family to give out). I bought, they give out because I have some physical limitations, they are my feet. My daughter helped me put them together. So excited! Diversion therapy is great and can only imagine how stressful your job can be...See you soon!

I had said in an earlier post I will be the one with the big white garbage bag clutched tightly! LOL it's all that'll hold all the gift bags!!!!!
 
Went to Party City today and they didn't have any green Leis :(...Not sure where else to look.
 
When is the cut off for the FE list? I am getting exciting about getting the gifts together. I haven't bought much but I have been looking around and getting ideas :) I was thinking cut off date is around the middle of October?
I have ordered most of my things online from Etsy and Party City which does have them for online ordering. I have gotten most orders in a few days if that's an option for you. Didn't realize that it was decided to do that- must have missed that alert. Myself, I'll be the one without. If I'd known I could have stuck one in with other orders but doesn't make sense to order one for .49 at this point. But it'll be a fun meet just the same if I am able.

I am going down to my Grandma's house this weekend. Maybe if I see a place during the 3 1/2 hour drive, I will pick up some and get for you also :). Don't hold your breathe tho cuz my Grandma lives in the stix of MO. :rotfl2:

I live in rural Georgia only an hour to a big enough city to have a Party City- it's sweet of you to offer to get me one. Getting out and around can be difficult for me at times. The thought is super sweet. If you don't have any luck, I think we will find each other with or without getting lai'd....... No pun intended just don't know how to spell it......Everybody else will be in the pool, at the bars, eating or reclining!!!!! LOL Be safe

I hope we are not too late to the party! This will be our first Disney Cruise. I am traveling with my son (7) and my parents (grandma and grandpa). We would like to join the fish extender and will be in room 9023.

I juuuuust figured out how to get to this page. Is it too late to sign up? This will be our first time sailing and I have two children. My husband was supposed to sail with us but he dropped a bomb on me when he sent me an email telling me he wanted a divorce. I would really like to do everything possible for this to be a great memory for my kids considering this may be the last vacation I get to take with them for a while. (because of money) Please let me know ASAP so I can get started on everything if it's not to late. Thanks!

Emily,
I am a single mom too and it appears I signed up too late as well. I would love for my son and I to leave you and your kids a little something. My son is 7 and is having a bit of anxiety over going on a cruise. I was hoping that participating in FE would help give him something to look forward to. Let me know if you'd like to do our own little FE exchange.
