I have a rather "Goofy" favor to ask & its about those "Fish Extenders."
BACKSTORY:
About a year ago, I bumped into a co-worker friend of mine who has 2 teen-aged daughters who (like me) like all things Disney. The friend of mine& I (the Mother of the two kids) talk every now and then but one day , I asked her if she thought about taking her daughters to WDW - as a way to celebrate getting through high school. She said no but was warm to the idea. NOW flash forward to now about a month ago.
She asked me if I would send her & her family some pictures of my trip. I said yes. I began to think of how & when. I stumbled into the idea of sending a few cds of pictures off my digital camera & box it up & send it to her & her family. BUT.....here is where a simple idea takes off!
I repitched to her the above listed question & she said yes. I asked if its ok to book for her & her family a ressie while I am onboard (day 3 on the Wonder). She said yes. I asked if her daughters are aware of this..yet (trying to keep this a surprise). She said no. I replied why not get them a "Birnbaums Guide to WDW" book as a Christmas gift...thus surprising them with the trip (Jan 2010 via the ressie I book for them). She liked the idea.
So, my box morphed into a magical box of sorts for in it I am putting 3 t-shirts from
Castaway Cay, some pictures of WDW /
DCL, autograph picture from the Princess gathering & a trip report.
But..... I need a little extra
Can one of you "pwease" help me add a little punch to this box by crafting a personalized (with tiebacks) fish extender?? The ages of the 2 girls are 12 & 15 & they both like Cinderella, the Jonas Brothers & Hanna Montana.
And this will be their very first trip to WDW. -
**** AND THIS IS A CHRISTMAS GIFT SURPRISE*****
(The Birnbaum book - which means a trip to WDW!)
My intention here to spread a little pixie dust myself (through my box) & have fun knowing I helped to put an extra smile in someone's heart and you can join in on the fun if you would like.
It would be so nice if one of those fish extenders could find its way into the box that I am putting together (feel free to place a card in it saying "from whom to whom" for example).
If interested, please pm, post or e-mail me with a response as obviously there is more information I would need to give you.
I greatly thank you and appreciate you for listening.
oh and by the way.....me and sewing????? If I have to sew (say I have a hole in one of my pants pocket) well....let's just say ummmm... I er...... use a stapler!!!

+

-- so I am not very good in the sewing department I am afraid to say.
Postscript: I will be in WDW January 7th-11th & DCL January 11th-15th & I don't mind sending out up to 5 postcards for my Fairy Godmother who doesn'nt mind pm-ing me with a follow up response.
P.s. for anyone who doesn't know what a fish extender is, please do a search on this website and it will fill you in on what it is.
