FE group - March 4th - 9th 2012 Dream DD

[lisaradz]

I just had to post because I finished our FE's today! I sewed together tote bags from the dollar store. It was actually cheaper than buying material and less sewing involved. I would post a picture if I could figure out how to do that... Anyway, I'm on a roll and now I need to organize and put tags on the gifts. Hard to believe that we are just 6 weeks away!

Just wondering if someone can post the link to the kids forum that was set up for our cruise? I have an only (8 year old boy) and he'd love to chat and get to know some of the other kids before the trip. Last year we went with another family that had kids his age, but this year it's just us. Thanks!

Well done!

We finished bagging and tagging yesterday!

I need to let you all know that Alice wrote our tags
Just incase you find your name spelt wrong!
My favourite was when she wrote Brian as Brain!

We're all getting very excited here! Kids already got to the finding-it-hard-to get-to-sleep stage!

I have an 8 year old son (Jack) that posted on the board. He just did a state report on Minnesota (my mom is from Brainerd) He would love to make a friend. Our 11 year old is too cool to hang out with the "little kids" this time.

Thank you so much Fredgirls, for the amazing organization, charts, lists, etc!

I am not finished yet, but am having so much fun working on the FE gifts.

We so appreciate your leading on this project, and keeping us organized and informed. We look forward to boarding the Dream, and to meeting you in one month and 12 days - but who's counting?!

Per a PM I recieved, in our group Chris is a female. Getting super excited! Picked up something I needed this weekend from Disney World, now just need the rest to get them put together! Time for full on planning mode in this house

Great! Thanks!

Hi Brian, Margie,
I have sent you a PM about the kids. Just letting you know.
I don't know about anyone else, but I never get an e-mail letting me know I have a PM.

Hi Everyone,

When you get a chance could you all e-mail me please.
I have added a link to my address. Just click on "Fredgirls" to the left of my message and "e-mail Fredgirls" should now be an option.

Once you e-mail me I will have your e-mail address. I will then be able to e-mail you the deck plans etc. once I have them finished.

I looked at other ways to share the documents, but with everyone on different operating systems, e-mail would be the easiest.

I won't have an open list, so your e-mails won't be visible to everyone else.
Still, if you don't want to share your e-mail with me I'll try and think of something else

Thanks guys! 5 weeks today will be Esme's B'day and hopefully we'll be in Hogsmeade!

Thanks.

I so wish I lived close enough to pop to Disney World for the day!
I keep looking for jobs for my husband - anyone down there need a physicist!

Being close to Disney World is definitely AWESOME! Wish I could get season passes for DCL though!Hopefully this week I will be able to get some FE/magnet things done....running out of time but I guess thats a good thing

Yeah, i'm kinda feeling the 'nearly there' pressure starting to build! We leave 4 weeks Wednesday.
I have the FE stuff nearly done. I finished the gifts, bag and tagged and then my kids had another idea for something else, just from them to the other kids, so I still have that to finish! Funny who always gets left to complete their brilliant ideas!
Bought t-shirts and iron transfer sheet today. Not sure when that's going to get done! Basketball season is in full swing. This week the girls have 3 practices and 4 games! At least the next 4 weeks will go by quickly!

Really though, i'm just so excited I don't think anything will get to me!

Just wanted to update that we changed staterooms today thanks to the Florida resident discount! Went from a 5c to a 5A and saved 300! We are now in staterooms 9548(Christina, Randy and Bryanna) and 9550(Chris and Jeff). Wish they were offering the discount on our 5Cs because it would have saved us even more but hey we will take it! Soon we will be able to say we are cruising next month!!!!!

Fabulous! Good for you! Another reason to look for that Florida job!

I'll change on the first page and it will be in the stuff I send later on. Going to hold off a while longer to see if any more changes happen. Read someone on our other board had an upgrade so they're still happening!

No big deal. That happens more often than you would think.

Hi Guys!
You don't waste time getting to the boards!

So sorry. FE closed 4 weeks ago.

If you want to hang one anyway, I have already packed a few extras so will drop you something off
If others have extras they may do the same.
Just leave your room number when you get it.

Sorry again.

Hi Everyone,

I'd like to find out how many of you would be interested in joining a second FE group?

As requested I have been firm with our cut-off date and don't panic, there will be no-one else joining our group!

To allow the people who have recently booked to experience the FE thing, there is a possibility of having a second group.

If any of you would like to join this as well, please let me know.
For us, it would just involve adding delivery to the new people.

And i'd make it easy for you with amalgamated deck plans

It looks like it would only be a few more families.
If anyone would like to take part with these extra families, leave a note here.
Thanks

Hi Everyone,
I still need E-mails from some of you.
If you E-mail me (from contact drop down menu, under my name to the left) then I'll have your address. I have all the lists and deck plans ready.
Thanks,
Anita
