Fantasy 12/3/16 Christmas season with the Mouse!!

[professorandmom]

what about putting a post on the Facebook page for our group

Perfect, I will do that later in August

Hi! From the research I have done, it seems to be very much about your choice. You can give as many, or as few as you wish. I think I will be giving 1 gift to each cabin, and 1 gift to each person. You can drop off gifts any time that is convenient...we may do 1 level each day, or maybe all together....the emphasis is on being creative and having fun!!! I hope this helps!

Thank you for the information. That helps me a lot. My daughter and I are super excited about creating some fun things to leave for people. I see we are in the storm trooper group for now. I am not sure if this will change.

I am really thinking that the only changes we'll see in the two FE groups is a reduction in cabins...I think we'll be able to keep the active folks in two meaningful groups...fingers crossed!

I just learned that the moderator of the Facebook group will remove me if I post about the DIS boards...so, nope, don't think I'll post a message to folks about the boards

I kinda had the vibe that going between is a little taboo....glad you found out before taking me up on my "bright" idea...

Well, hello, Brandy! We're so glad you're here! To participate, you just hit reply and post the information that is available for other folks including the gender and age of any children, cabin number, etc...
Our FE lists are a bit tentative at the moment because some folks who said they were going months ago have not check in - so we aren't sure they are really going with us...but we'll get them ironed out soon!
I'll add your info when you send it
Again, hope you find lots of great information about cruising on Disney here! Barb

Thank you! I am happy to be here We are in cabin 9082. My husband (Jeff) and I are traveling with our 4 year old (two months shy come cruise time) daughter Ella. Please let me know if I need to include any other information.

My girlfriend and her family are on this cruise as well. I know that we are excited about the fish extender and looking forward to coming up with fun things to leave other fish extender participants

Hey Brandy, tell me what you'd like to do about your friend and her family...I am not clear on your last sentence...is the "we" you and your husband or you and your girlfriend...if it is your girlfriend and they'd like to participate in FE, they don't have to be on the DIS boards but we need the details for the FE list...let me know

Sorry to confuse you.

Forget the comments about my girlfriend and her family. She is already signed up with you. It was simply a side note.....my bad.

In our cabin, is me, my husband and my daughter.

Do you have a preference as to whether you are in the same group with your friend? If so, let me know what group they are in

Hi all! My name is Vanessa and I currently am a stay-at-home mom. We live in the Tampa Bay Area and are Disney World annual pass holders. My husband (Nick) and I have 3 kids and do a lot of half days at the parks. This will be our first cruise and I cannot be more excited that it is a Disney Cruise! We have 3 kids: Charlotte - 7, Avery (girl) - will be turning 5, and Nate, 2. We are in stateroom 8610. I would like to participate in the FE exchange. We are also traveling with my in-laws - they will be in another room and I do not believe they want to participate in the FE exchange.

Welcome Vanessa18, I'll add you to the roll call and to a FE group (http://www.disboards.com/threads/fa...n-with-the-mouse.3436114/page-8#post-55386838 ). Our FE group members are a bit off right now because some folks haven't been on the board in months...as a result, I would guess they aren't attending. However, we'll narrow it down in the next few weeks.

Since it is your first Disney cruise, I am certain you'll enjoy reading the boards to learn so many valuable details. Don't hesitate to ask questions on this thread as a little planning can make the trip so wonderful.

A few unique tips for our cruise

• we can make gingerbread houses...you sign up on embarkation day...it's an awesome family activity and the most delicious gingerbread that has to be eaten or (horrors) thrown away (can't be taken off the ship)
• Belle will be available in her red Christmas dress!
• we can attend a giant Christmas tree lighting the first night...super special and festive
• the atrium will smell like gingerbread because of the GIANT and beautiful gingerbread house

Counting the days!
Once again, welcome!

No need to be in the same group.

 

[professorandmom]

No need to be in the same group.

I hate to say it, but since you didn't tell us your friend's DIS board name, I don't know whether I would be putting you in the same group or not...could you tell me which group you'd rather be in?

 

[Pegster50]

I believe there is a error in Katekins13 cabin number. It says 7594 but I believe she said 7584 in her post.

oops...I'll fix that right now...sorry!

I'll add you to the Storm Troopers, let me know if this won't work...

 

[professorandmom]

As for finalizing the FE lists, I added the last log in/post in our thread dates for the disappeared folks to the FE lists...my thought is that, around Sept 1, we can ask everyone to check in (just a simple "I am here" post) and then remove the folks who don't check in...
seems sad to include folks who aren't active in the thread...
I believe the real purpose of this thread is to connect with each other, not get small gifts through the FE...so logging in more than since last year could be helpful as we get to know each other...
That said, I recognize I am part of the old school who used to connect on the DIS boards long before FE was started. There is currently a great thread on the "good ole days" in the main board...http://www.disboards.com/threads/frustrated-about-new-cruise-meet-groups-vs-the-olden-days.3528623/
