Hey! July 30th, 2005 cruise to Mexico DISfriends!

[littleowensmommy]

JoAnn, Please pass on my congratulations to Tara as well...What an accomplishment! What are Jess' dates at ODU? That's about 20 minutes from our house so if she wants to get away for an evening...

I just don't think that July at WDW will work for us. Ted is working that weekend so if I decided to come I would be alone with the kids. I did look at airfare and it is very high. I'll be in Williamsburg with the kids 23-28 August.

Lucy, are you guys flying or driving?

 

[lwilliam]

Well, you all know I work in an art department.......(Tara, take NO OFFENSE over this...) - yesterday I come in to work and some student painted the ladies' room stall with pictures.....tampering with state property is not good!
WELL, today is the best..... I come in this morning and the students
have cut holes in the ceiling tiles and put their pictures in the tiles.......
also tampering with state property.
Everyday is an adventure in the art department

Answers: NO, you do not need to change the ressies to 5:30 just for
Lucy......maybe she could grab a 3 hr. nap that day
AND, Jenny, you are right, if Tyler hears we are going to LeCellier, there
is NO keeping HIM from that restaurant. Unfortunately, and I can't
keep him from Cape May either.....two of his favorite restaurants, the
third being Casey's hot dogs in MK and Yakatori House in EPCOT.

Kathy - are you talking about driving/flying in July or October? I can't believe we don't know what we are doing in July....but we ARE watching gas
prices and shortages....our only problem is we need a car because first we
are staying at Universal for two days, then we need a grocery stop, then it is over to Disney, where we don't need a car. We are confused.
AND, October, as I told Bob last night, if it IS the Med for 2007, there is
NO Disney in October.

About the Fisher bar tab, Jenny. Since I LOVE Diet Coke, and it won't cost "Fisher" anything, think he'll buy me a Mickey Bar?

Oh, I would like to make ONE change in ressies - WHAT IF is working at Chef Mickey's??????? It would be
so much fun to take the group there too!

Is Lucy feeling better I'll let you know at 1:00 PM today......WW

No car needed!!! Call Mr. Jack or should I say Hijack?? I hired him on Mark's birthday to drive us to City Walk so we could go to Bob Marley's, Jimmy Buffett's and Pat O'Brien's. Aren't we the responsible ones?? He would do airport to U.S., then grocery, then BWV. Call him and get a price!

About the Fisher bar tab, Jenny. Since I LOVE Diet Coke, and it won't cost "Fisher" anything, think he'll buy me a Mickey Bar?

Fish is the softie in our family. You can talk him into about anything with a bat of the eye. John tells his friends that too!!! The kids NEVER come to me when the "want something"!!! Trust me, I'm spoiled....I know how to "work it"!!!! Don't give away my secret to him!!!!!

Oh, I would like to make ONE change in ressies - WHAT IF is working at Chef Mickey's??????? It would be
so much fun to take the group there too!

I think this is a very valid question. However, we are not "BOUND" to the ressies and if that is true..........I vote for a last minute switch!!!

 

[Captain Nemo]

Hello all. Hope everyone is well.Congrats to Tara on a job well done. That's terrific. Lucy I do hope you are feeling better! I finally booked the July trip today. We are coming in on July 27th and leaving on Monday the 31st. It will be our first time staying at Boardwalk. We couldn't resist the free alcohol Jenny I hope that Mark knows that we are not shy about running up a bar tab Kathy it would be awesome if your family came down and joined us for this almost formal reunion. Tell Ted I need my cigar buddy,I do have two cuban heaters awaiting a special occassion. I spoke with the mouse and it is too far away for any work schedule. She will try to get a day off while we are there.
The store was getting cleaned out yesterday. We cleaned up most of Debs stock on saturday. Luckily the fire wasn't all that bad, most of the damage was from the water and smoke. The fire marshals were back again yesterday. We got educated real quick. Luckily Deb did get away for a few days from the shop, and is enjoying her working trip. She is due back on Friday night.
Lynn and Keith it will be great having you here in October. Train to Staten Island Ferry than another train to wherever. I know that Lucy loves the subways. You will get a full flavor of New York from the subways,sights and smells.
JoAnn those ressies sound good for us. What day did you book the segway tour. We are interested in doing that as well. Give my regards to Ken. How are the rents? Hows my birthday girl? JT how's the fishing?
Kathy tell Ted that we are going to do the segways, almost like riding the horses in Maztlan ,a year removed! Bob we need to work on Ted. Night all.

[lwilliam]

Captain Nemo - THANK YOU FOR WRITING AND UPDATING....
Have you heard from Deb? And.....Micco.....I do NOT love those
subways....you jokster! I will only travel on a train with YOU and Deb!

JoAnn: I will be laughing my HEAD OFF watching you guys on the Segways.....bring the cameras guys....I will be your official photographer and will not charge..... you all know what it will cost 'ya!
Don't forget BOB for margarita night......the 'boy' LOVES those drinks

Kathy: Just a few days, please. Can't Ted find a medical
conference SOMEWHERE in Orlando?

 

[lwilliam]

Happy Secretary Day to ME​

You're the best secretary, Lucy

 

[littleowensmommy]

Ted is definitely working that weekend...not for the Navy. He's covering for one of the private groups that he moonlights with. It's this moonlighting income that pays for all of our trips/cruises, etc.

Lucy, Ted had a medical conference in Los Angeles next month...Digestive Disease Week. Big fun! He has another conference in Las Vegas in October. I'm going with him to Vegas baby!

I would fly down by myself if I could find a place to dump the kids here. Ted will be home at night but he could get called in at anytime for an emergency so we need to have an overnight back up plan. If I bring the kids I won't be able to play. They've been to Disney 3x already this year and we're going back again in August and October...they'll live.

Is anyone else going stag who might want to share a room with me? I'm not saying that I'm going...I'm still just thinking about it.

BTW, We have a 2bdr at BCV 7-13 October and there's only 4 of us so If anyone would like to come down and join us and Lucy and Bob for Party for the Senses, you're welcome to crash.

 

[jlawall]

I told you she was mulling!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Jenny went stag in NYC and she had a blast (Right, Jenny?? ) Come on down!!!!!!!!!!!!! You know you're a great Mom!, YOU DESERVE A BREAK!!

Late seating, Lynn......................(you can sleep late, grab a snack on Deck 9 at 6 (take a nap) and then chill with the party animals!!! Even Bill & Al eat with us!!! Whhoppee!

Oh yea, Happy Sec Week, Lucy!!I should have known!! Teachers aren't really that bad, are they??

Just think, Debi, is on a cruise right now...........hhhhhhhhmmmmmm

 

[jfis1020]

I told you she was mulling!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Jenny went stag in NYC and she had a blast (Right, Jenny?? ) Come on down!!!!!!!!!!!!! You know you're a great Mom!, YOU DESERVE A BREAK!!

Stag is ALWAYS better than drag!!!

Back up plan=See ya Ted! I'll be back in a few days!!!!

Heck yeah you are a great mom! Look at those kids! and you need a break too!


I sayAdd one more to that Margarita party!!!!

 

[littleowensmommy]

Lucy, If I do come (and it's still IF) can Bob be my date for Margarita night? I just did the Segway tour last October and it was great but I'm not sure if I'd be up for doing it again so soon. Who's signed up to do it? I'd be in for the Cape May Cafe clambake and Le Cellier. And I'll bring my DDE card JoAnn. I've found childcare coverage for the kids. Now I have to find a place to stay. Is everyone staying at BWV? How far is the Swan/Dolphin from BWV? It's walking distance, isn't it? If I stay there instead of at BWV what is the cheapest transportation from MCO roundtrip? I can get a room at the Swan for $129/night plus tax. A studio at BWV will run me 78 points but since I've only got 2 points available, I'd have to rent 76 points which will run me $684.

Jenny, I made a reservation for Amy at the Bibbity Bobbity Boutique during our August visit. She's going to get her hair, makeup and nails done before lunch at CRT. Owen is going to get the boy's "cool doo" like they do at the Barber Shop on Main Street. I've got to get Amy a new princess costume. She's about grown out of her Sleeping Beauty costume. Are you doing this with Mallory? Has Marshall ever had his hair done at the barber shop?

 

[lwilliam]

OF COURSE YOU CAN HAVE BOB!anytime....

I'll just do the bibbity booo boo whatever with Mallory - we'll do girly things, like nails and Princess teas. BUT, let me warn 'ya people, ANYONE comes home sick.....I don't clean up after you..... OR I'll just babysit the kids and then I'll get to go to bed at 9 PM.

THIS IS SO COOL KATHY - sorry, it is a done-deal..you can't back out now

IF you can't do the BWV, DO the Swan - they have heavenly beds that are out of this world....and you will ONLY be there to sleep, truly. You'll be over with us all the time.

OK, JoAnn - your work is ALMOST done! Now, Lynn and 'rents'

Transportation - Jenny - tell her about Jack - I LOVE Jack - that is the main reason we are checking into airfare, instead of driving - I LOVE that man.

 

[littleowensmommy]

OK, I can get a room at the same rate at either the Swan or the Dolphin. Which one is closer to BWV? I could save @$120 by staying at Shades of Green but then I'd be stuck on Disney transporation going back and forth between SOG and BWV. I'm going to use MEARS since it is only $30 R/T...that is IF I come.

 

[littleowensmommy]

OK, I booked a room at the Swan...just in case. Oh, Cruise Director, JoAnn, Could you please provide me with a current list of activities? Also, would it be a pain to add me in on the PS reservations?

Micco, Ted said he'll miss smoking a cigar with you but you have an open invitation to visit us and go golfing with Ted.

 

[jfis1020]

...that is IF I come.

WHAAAAAAT? IIIIIFFF????? Sounds to me like you are in!



What a party gang!!!!



Lynn??????????????


JT????????????????


Come on guys.............we are officially a reunion!!!!!!!

 

[jlawall]

Ok,oK, you guys are SO MY FAVES!! Kathy, you are so in!!! So far, we have a ressie at Cape May Cafe, Friday night at 5:30pm, a Segway on Sat. morning (I'll check the time) and Sat night at 8:30 at Le Cellier, we still have to plan the Margarita night, etc............i'M SO PSYCHED THAT YOU'RE IN.........YOU SO DESERVE IT!!! I'll call and add you to the dinner ressies........let me know if you want the Segway ressie.............we will have such a blast!!! Deb will be so psyched..........you can hang with us if need be since we also will have no kids!!!!

I'm so psyched...............my rents are here right now and heading to Niagara Falls this weekend!!!!!!!!Don't worry they always check here!............KEEP HARASSING THEM AND THEY WILL FOLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[littleowensmommy]

Ok Ok, I just booked airfare. I'm flying in Friday 28 July on AirTran. I arrive at MCO at 12:56pm. I'll catch MEARS over to the Swan and then catch up with you guys.

I leave Monday on a 12:23pm flight.

I'm in for all activities. JoAnn, I just booked the 9:30am Segway Tour for Saturday 29 July. I confirmed with the CM I spoke with that you were signed up for that time. Did you get a 15% discount? I ran my Segway into a bush last year. Hopefully, I'll be better this time.

This is going to be so much fun!!!
