disneylover5 (Lisa? - I never know if itis you or your DH who is posting) - just last night my DH asked about playing golf. Let me know your threesome's details and I'll pass it to him to see if he is interested. I think he'd have a good time. Our DSs are too young for golf...for now. Anyway, send me the info.
Take care.
Karen

Hi everyone!

Happy New Years to all!

Disneylover5--Heather has tried to email your DD with no
luck, she says it will not go through. Does she or your Ds's use IM? Maybe they could contact each other that way.

Does the DLC provide beach towels or is that one other HUGE
thing I have to find room for?

Already placed an order with Talbots....do you think we will all
pick the same outfits LOL!

See you all soon

i believe in prayer chains, they have worked before.we have been at the hospital for 5 days with my little mouse, olivia. she has"that"flu....the one where little ones and seniors have not been able to get over it without medical attention and/or hospitalization. it started with an earache-sniifles and within 24 hours, she was at the dr who sent her to the hospital for xrays of her chest( im sure that i have mentioned before that she was a preemie with lung disease)to them sending her down the hall to the er, to admitting her. scary.....anyway, she is sleeping soundly in her own crib now , we had a company bring out a nebulizer and we are giving her treatments every 4 hours. she is also on steroids to help her little lungs out. we need her 100% better in 19 days to cruise, she SHOULD be, but we are still worried. shes our little fighter , and her dr is sure she"ll be ok, but im still a worry wort.
i hope that everyone had a safe and fun new year and everyone, STAY HEALTHY

 

[disneylover5]

Olivia - prayers, prayers, prayers!! I will put her on our church prayer chain....bless her little heart...

 

[disneylover5]

Maredith,
Annie has the same e-mail and screenname for IM: basktbll999@aol.com....

No need for beach towels....unless you must have huge ones (or disney ones...I will bring a few Disney Princess ones I am sure). They hae nice towels by the pool and also hand them out at stops as you get off the ship. A good tip is the morning of Castaway Cay to bring some off the ship with you from the pool and then take the one towel they give you as you get off the ship...that way you can have more than 1 towel per person.

I tried to call Talbot's and they are closed today...web site says 24/7....was all the spring stuff in stock? What did you get? I fell in love with about 20 things......

[BuzzBoyMom]

Mariamard - our family will be praying for Olivia! Let us know if we can do anything!!! Karen

 

[tinkerbell4]

Disneylover5-- thanks for Annies info.
I just tried the no. I have for Talbots and they answered.
1-800-825-2687 try this.

I order the tropical print cropped pants (Apple green) whole
outfit. Canvas cropped pants with a white top (stone, light yellow)

I may make another call If I don't find anything at the mall
this weekend.

mariamard -prayers and pixie dust for Olivia. My youngest had RSV three times and we're all to familiar with the dreaded nebulizer - but thank God for them! You and your family will be in our prayers.

BuzzBoyMom - thanks for all your work on compiling that list. It's great to have it all in one place!

Sounds like great minds think alike. I've been to two of the Talbot's in our area scouting out the cruisewear/spring offerings. We may have to coordinate our outfits, ladies! LOL

mariamard - prayers & pixie dust for Olivia

Called TA today, said our docs were sent on 12-31-03.

Starting to pack, only 21 more days.

Happy New Year to everyone!

Prayers and Pixie Dust to Olivia

Bad news, I just spoke with Debbie at the concierge desk and they will no longer do large parties due to the dis boards folks taking up the entire restaurant and not giving other people a chance. She said the most she could do would be a party of 6. Well, at least we tried. Maybe we can still get a girls group for tea. I asked about the age limit and you have to be 18 to go to Palo even for tea. They have tea with Wendy for the younger set. Sarah already told me that she thinks she's way too old to do that.

DBMagic - I know Sarah and Desiree are getting along very well. She's really enjoying e-mailing and sending Im's to all of the girls.

Of couse you mention Talbot's, and now I will just have to go on their website.

Picked out baskets for the girls, now I just need to call Shirley. I think this weekend will be devoted to putting everyones clothes on the bed and making a list of the last things I need.

 

[pjpoohbear]

Mariamard:

Prayers and wishes for DD, we need all your little ones to enjoy as we will have none of our own on the cruise. We (DM and I) love to see their faces light up with delight.

Dancersmom, if Tea becomes an option and there is a space open, I would love to have a afternoon of Tea and conversation with the gals.

I need to stop reading posts now I'm feeing so behind. Couldn't really plan until after the holidays this is DDs' Christmas present although our middle schooler is worried about homework and play practice. We have no cruise docs yet (I'm hoping they're waiting for me at the office) and now I get to go shopping (w/ DDs) for Formal wear. My 9 year old is hoping "there are girls my age" since the older DD 12 has already spied girls going her age. We have late seating and will probably do brunch at Palo not sure yet about dinner don't want to miss a thing! DH and I will be doing the rain forest, wine tasting and lots of cool adult things DDs have already asked if we would mind if they didn't always stay with us the are soooo excited about the lab! We are booked on the Atlantis sub in St. Thomas and are thinking about the butterfly farm in St. Marteen

[QueenTrident]

Maria - My family and I will be praying for you, Olivia and your family. Best of luck to you all!

 

[Scratch42]

As a mother of a preemie, my heart goes out to you!

Extra prayers for Olivia and a speedy recovery!

Let us know if there is anything we can do for you and your family.

[DBMagic]

jensensva - Desiree (10) has been emailing with a few girls and would love it if your daughter or daughters would join in. The girls are having a blast getting to know each other before the cruise. Desiree's e-mail is desisant@comcast.net and her IM name (if you have AOL IM) is bballcutie27727.

 

[minniesota]

jensensva - Glad you joined us! I know what you mean about reading posts - I keep going back on this thread to familiarize myself with who's who. If you're comfortable posting your DDs' e-mails, I'm sure some of the girls would love to get in touch.

I would also like to do the wine tasting but DH isn't that interested. He'd rather do the British pub beer tasting. Hopefully, I'll hook up with some of you wine tasters!

Our family went to see "Cheaper By The Dozen" tonight - I'm exhausted! I think I need a cruise!
