Hi everyone.......

Gotta catcch up on my post count

so who has their FEs all figured out? Im kinda sorta there. i still have to make it ofcourse but the plan has atleast been hatched.

I have the magnets figured out and just need to complete them. We have a part of the FE done, but still need to get more and put them together. I think I will have just as much fun watching the kids enjoy these activities as I know they are going to love delivering and doing them.

Kelli,

We are not at your hotel, but we ARE having dinner at FishLips! We are actually going to be in town starting Thursday, to give ourselves a day to unwind between driving down and boarding the ship. If you do a pre-cruise meet, count us in!

Oh, I wish we could come down on Thursday!!

So Kelli
just wondering when you are going to finish your last TR, or are you planning on leaving all your subscribers hanging until after this cruise

I HAVE to get that thing finished! I think the penalty for not completing a TR and going on another cruise is spontaneous combustion upon boarding the ship... Plan to finish over Christmas time off if that ever actually gets here!

I for one decided not to wait for the end of this awesome TR. Instead, I plan to meet Tinkerkell123 onboard and keep feeding her cocktails until I get the whole story!

Now THAT'S a GREAT idea!!

I have them figured out, just not all the way complete.... Another holiday project...

Posted over on FB that I got this really fun book called "What Time is the Midnight Buffet?" by chesterh. I think he is somewhere on the boards... Anyway, it's about the very first cruise he and his wife took on Celebrity and it has been so fun to read! Definitely a great way to pass the time until our cruise. His was a 10-day but I wish it was longer so the book would last longer! Found it on Alibris...

sounds like a good one i will have to take a look for it.

sounds like a lot of us are counting on the Christmas ferries to magically help us get caught up

ok so is the weather getting any better to the snow? Its still cold as usual here but thats expected this time of year. I am more concerned with the south not being hot for our holiday. Please lie to me if need be and say that it will be beautiful and warm.

It's going to be beautiful and warm!

Anybody else not started on their FE's yet? I just can't seem to get my act together!

Nope, have not started yet. That is a January project, as is packing.

Have any of the kids been chatting either here or on FB? Just wondering if we had figured out how to handle that.

Merry Christmas!!

We leave in the morning for our family Christmas celebration in Ohio. Why we would leave the beach and drive straight toward a blizzard is a mystery to me. I just wanted to stop by and wish everyone a Merry Christmas! (Or a Happy Festivus, if that's your thing.)

By the time I get back on the boards, it will only be THREE WEEKS until vacation. Wooooot Wooooot!

i've got as far as the idea but haven't actually produced anything yet.

I told my DD-11 about it and she was excited so I showed her FE list of girls her age that will be on the ship. She can use my or Trisha's FB account to chat if other kids are chatting or exchanging messages.

 

[Melissa&Shawn]

I have an idea...actually ordered it but the company told me they didn't have enough. So off to find another company! Potentially back to square one. After Christmas it is full steam ahead!

Oh and thank you everyone for your help for the pre-trip info. We looked into the hotels and ended up with the Marriott Residence Inn that I was finally able to use my Marriott Reward points for. Free hotel...woo hoo!!! Now to get the rental car and figure out how to get to the airport.

Merry Christmas everyone! Travel safe! Can't wait until the cruise...just got a super cute bathing suit in the mail today....so excited!

1 MONTH !!!

So this time next month we will all be onboard and what will everyone be up to?

We should be done dinner and doing a little bit of ship wandering before putting DS to bed. How about everyone else?

Is "on my way from tipsy to slightly drunkish" an acceptable answer?

Just to surprise my friends, I bought the Bon voyage package, with a sparkling wine and some petit fours and chocolate-dipped strawberries.

I chose the Martini Asti sparkling wine, which is actually my favorite one anyway, it's sweet and delicious and all that counts is the *POP*, right?

Did you buy some gifts as well?

Do diapers count as a gift? Ha! I bought my son a bunch of stuff from Babies Travel Lite, but I don't think he will view them as gifts.

I didn't realize that we had finally set up a kids page. My DD doesn't have a FB account, but she could chat under my name. Would someone PM me the FB page name? Thanks!!

Of course!

I am going to do the champagne one. We loved the Fairy Tale Cuvee that Iron Horse does for DCL and something for the kids, don't know what yet though...

I hope everyone has a FANTASTIC Christmas!! Safe travels...

Oh, and where will I be this time next month? On deck watching us get to Key West!!
