Yeah, I got them on clearance for the kids at the end of the summer with a shovel..Sent them down to Heather who was able to put the kids names onto them...Then they will serve two purposes the trick or treat pail and then they can play with them on the beaches.....Can you just imagine when the kids all have their buckets on CC so many families will wonder where they got them..

When I was buying 50 buckets in Sept. the lady asked me if I was planning on having a party or something when I told her what they were for she wanted to come on the cruise...LOL!!!!!!

How exciting!!!! The kids will love them! Can we help with the cost of them? I bought the kids a trick or treat bag but it was only $1.00 for both of them. I will be glad to help with the cost of them. I appreciate all you and Heather have done. It is going to be so much fun. One of my close friends just go back from the Eastern cruise last weekend and she is wanting to go back with us because of all the things we are going to get to do that they didn't!!!Her pictures were beautiful so now I am more than excited to go!

Won't be long! One week from now we will be in FLORIDA!!!

 

[misseulalie]

Yes, I'd be willing to throw in a few bucks to help with the cost of the buckets....

Just let me know!!!

 

[ckatz_meow]

I would be more than happy tp throw a few xtra $$ in. I greatly apprecitate the time and effort you put into this. This will make it that much more special and memorabel for the kids, they get to T or T and then they got to go enjoy the day digging in the sand with a bucket that you gave them....thanks for every thing....I also got goodie bag with glow bracletes, stickers, halloween goodies and lots of candy....

Hi everyone! Kim and the kids have arrived safe and sound packed and laoded for three weeks. They will be staying here in the corporate housing this week and getting used to St. Joseph. We leave in less than a week.

The kids are all very excited and we are looking forward to meeting everyone on the boat. Just a reminder - if people are interested - we can have a pre cruise get together Friday afternoon / evening at the resort. We will be staying at Cypress Pointe Resort in Lake Buena Vista. My cell phone is 731-414-3713. Depending on who is interested we can order in from Giordanos or something.

We have scheduled our Palo Brunch the morning of the TOT. I think we will be okay but we might be running a little late!

Sorry to butt in ..(I am fran and dave's sister..they are use to me butting in)

We were on the Halloween 2005 cruise and just a suggestion...have a parent at the head of the group with a mickey head on a stick of some kind and then someone at the back...we started from the lowest deck and went up and it was good to have someone on the end so any stragglers get hurried up!

We didn't have a problem with anyone sneaking in...most kids were up on deck..we did it at 11am I think...but we all had TONS of candy left over..so crashers would have been ok with me! I think I still have some left!!

someone asked about shipping candy...We had some in our group ship there decorations and costumes...less stuff in the suitcases..

and just a personal note...magnetic hooks at Walmart are GREAT for hanging garland on your door...Target has bat and pumpkin garland on sale!

Last note then I will leave you nice people alone (much to the relief of my sister, I am sure):
I know kritter and some others read some of the Sept 30th reports about people being less than happy...please don't let a few people get you anxious! We were on that cruise and other than water problems (which...honestly wasn't a problem for us ) it was a perfect cruise..We had wonderful servers...magical days and perfect, perfect seas.
(ps..DO skip the CC member meet...unless they have changed it in 2 weeks...big bore and I would rather be at the pool with a mojito!)

Do not know where you are shipping it from?? But Staples has it and I just ordered from them with free shipping...Heather and I ordered four cases for 23.00..All you need to do is sign up for their free rewards card and shipping is free....Worked out great....Just an FYI!!!!!

 

[kritter]

Is anyone willing to make up six sign for our trick or treat for the parent/group leaders to hold?? We could attach the sign to a paint stick and all the sign would need to say is Dis Trick or Treat!!! Thanks... Just a thought we do not have to have them but would be neat....


Chris, Glad you guys are all set soo nice of you to offer to host a little get together about how far are you from WDW???? Thanks.

 

[ArmandXG]

GREAT!!! It will be fun to spot each other at the terminal. Rick and I plan to be at the terminal at 10:00 or 10:15. We are on the first Radisson Shuttle to the port


Teri

We'll be there early, too! We are taking our own car and parking at the terminal, though. Can't wait to meet everyone

 

[buckifan]

Kristin--I will make those signs for the ToT.....

Please tell me more about how you ordered thoses cases of water from Staples....did you just do it from their website? Where did you get the address for the warehouse, and did you ask for them to be delivered on a certain date?

 

[Princess Olivia]

Hi everyone! How many suitcases do you think you'll have on the cruise? Will the large deeper rectangular suitcases fit under the bed? I know our older traditional luggage all fit but am not sure if this newer deeper luggage will go under?

Craig and I saw the Departed by Martin Scorsese last night. It was excellent! Filmed in Boston last summer. Based on the Boston Irish mafia/FBI so a bit violent but one of the best I've seen this year! If you like his movies you will LOVE this. For the ladies, it wasn't too difficult watching Leonardo DiCaprio and Matt Damon either

Got my camera last night (canon SD900) still trying to figure it all out. Wish I could take a class on how to make the most of this camera. I think there are more options than I'll ever manage to discover. Any camera experts (maybe your dad Kristin) willing to help me out on the ship would be greatly appreciated!

Olivia went to a sleepover party last night. ...her right now. Extremely tired and heading down a road to sickville. Started both kids on Airborn last week.........hoping it works.

Heather I plan on giving you extra $ when I see you. You can put it all on you CC card!! More drinks for you

Everybody have their fish extender ready to go?

If anyone is worried about sending something to the port or if you are sending something that might melt sitting in a warehouse, you can send it to me and we will bring it with us. I have no problem getting it on the ship for you. Just send me a PM and I will give you our address. We are not driving over until Friday night 10/27 so you would have until that thursday to get it to me.

I just picked up a couple of bags of solo cups at Costco. Do you think that will be enough?

Deena,

The water thing was really easy...I will Pm you the information...


Anyone else want to know just go to Staples.com and sign up for their rewards card and it is soo easy.......

That all depends on how many adult goodie bags you plan on mixing up.
