Hello.....crusin's getting closer everyday

Anyhoo, I have set up a google docs to keep our FE organized, and provide each other with a little more info on our travelling parties. PM me your email addy so I can add you to the doc.

Aslo wondering how pple are feeling about a meet and greet on the first day. We had one on our last cruise and it was nice to have some familiar faces as we walked around the ship.

So how does the FE work?

Never done this before. Do we get gifts for everyone each night? Or are we matched up with people?

Really it's up to you, basically you will know who is staying where and how many kids with ages in each room. Some people do multiple gifts as others do one per stateroom. On our last cruise we got memory books sand toys magnets tons of candy and stickers ( and that's what I'm remembering off the top of m head). There was never a day when someone didn't leave something and our kids really loved looking in our hanger each day to see what was left. It's just meant for fun little things to make the trip more memorable and special

ps. IMO going to each room everyday would take a lot of time so I plan to do 1 drop per stateroom

I have my Dream cruise scrapbook almost complete(except for 2 pages) from last January to the Bahamas. If anyone says they are interested...I will try to scan it and put it out for everyone to see.

The weather last year was absolutely gorgeous. So gorgeous...we spent lots of time in the pool...saw all the shows...and basically had a fabulous time.

We enjoyed it so much...that we booked this Fantasy cruise as our bounceback!!!


So...if you want to see a cruise scrapbook in January...let me know...

I for one would LOVE to see your scrapbook. I'm still working on the scrapbooks for each of our Wonder (twice) Magic and Dream cruises. This is my year to get them done, BEFORE our Fantasy Cruise

The one one the left is Adrianna and she was 5lbs 2oz's at birth. The one on the Right is Lillian (also known as Lily), and she was 5lbs even at birth. They were born Friday Morning (May 18th). They all came home from the hospital today. All is going well, My daughter adjusting to Motherhood, and when I hear "Lily wouldn't sleep last night", I couldn't help but SMILE BIG LOL! Been there done that, now she'll know, as her children grow, what it was like for me being a mom. The Great times, the good times, the bad times the sad times. All very worth it though. Wouldn't trade it for anything.

WOW!
Congratulations
My granddaughter's middle name is Adrianna
And Lillian is such a nice name, also.

I know you are thrilled. We have been falling all over each other since April First, and we have been baby-sitting on Mondays, so DD & SIL can have a night out. We wouldn't trade it for the world.

My daughter Adriane likes your granddaughter's name.
It has to be such an exciting time for you all right now. Being a parent is such an awesome thing and I too wouldn't trade it for the world.
I have heard being a grandparent is even better as you can spoil them and then send them back home to mom and dad. Enjoy the little ones!

Very exciting time! I went over last night to help with the twins while their daddy went out for groceries. They looked tinier than I remember them being in the hospital So precious. Hopefully by January, they will have adapted to and like rides in the van, because we are ALL travelling down by vehicle instead of flying. It's a long long ride for two little ones, but I am hoping to break the long drive up with a visit to a Great friend I met on that 2010 cruise! I can hardly wait! Will you be driving down again also?
