I'm so glad to know that I'm not the only one scurrying around and bursting with excitement while DH watches baseball and spends 10 minutes total packing Glad I have a wedding to attend tonight to keep me occupied.

I hope you all have a wonderful trip. I know I missed the boat and didn't get in on the FE gifts (too overwhelmed at the time), but do hope you all have an amazing trip!

BTW, the Bailey's sounds just like what I need too

I think our husbands will get along well! "Why should it take more than five minutes to pack??"

Of course, he'll be the one asking me, "Where is (this) and (that)?)" I should just hide everything and tell him, "You didn't pack it?"

I just may send DH & DS to the movies this afternoon.

Oh, he will so be doing that too...did you do this, pack that?? My son could care less too...last time I asked him to start to pack his own suitcase, he was 7 and all he put in it was underwear...Christine, do you remember that?! and does it sound strangley familiar?? So, needless to say, I do the packing for both the men in the house. DS is pretty easy tho..everything goes with a Yankees t-shirt right?

All I can say is thank goodness DH is at work. DD and DS know I'm on my last nerve so they are staying clear....smart

I just discovered these boards. Is anyone going on Randi's horseback ride in Mazatlan? I will be going with my 2 girls ages 7 and 10. Looking forward to the cruise tomorrow.

Better late than never Peachhead...welcome. Sorry I can't be of help...we're doing horseback riding Cabo. Have a wonderful trip with your girls!

Actually, I packed it all last night and then had anxiety that my 1 suitcase was way too stuffed and heavy so I added a small duffle!
Got the final t ball game today and parties but looking forward to tomorrow. We'll be there in 26 hours!

Lucky you packing is done! Good thing...sounds like you've got a busy day! Hard to believe it's finally here!

OMG, I think no matter how much I plan, I'm still running at the last minute. But of course, I can't stay off the Boards... Did a Target, Michaels, Walgreens run..then DS tried on his jeans and let's just say he would give Steve Urkel (spelling?) a run for his money so we ran to the mall quick for a pair that fits. At least they were 50% off the sale price...I can do $9.99 for pants he'll grow out of in ohhhh, 7 days! .

Hey, Luvin All Disney...you're Bailey's Brew is goin fast...I think you could sell that at port to all of us crazies getting there at the crack of dawn or for those who have been there at the crack of dawn anyway!

Back to packing....

My DS (10) too! We've been running back and forth to Kohl's all week for bigger size shorts, pants, and then shoes. Of course my DH had to do the same thing when he went to pack his shorts... I told him he wasn't supposed to gain ten pounds until AFTER we st sail...

OK, I am waxed, packed and ready to go. Now just have to wait until 3:30am. I am going to try to sleep but I don't think that is going to be possible tonight.

Can't wait to meet you all tomorrow morning.

Tomorrow night at this time half of us will be eating and the other half will be getting ready to eat

We've made it to LA! We're staying at the Universal City Hilton. My son's friend's family owns the hotel so when we got here they had comped us the Presidential Suite. Needless to say I freaked out! Then DH decided he didn't need a bellman! SO here we are going to the Presidential Suite carrying our own bags, a baby, my 5 yr old had forgot his shoes in the car...so a barefooted kid. Yeah the Clampetts are in the Presidential Suite tonight!

The only way they could drag me out of here is ...well a Disney Cruise!

Woot! We'll be sailing at this time tomorrow!

Can't wait to meet everyone tomorrow...I feel like we'll be seeing old friends Anyone who's checking in on the boards later tonight, please be safe driving to port and get some rest...big day tomorrow! Who am I kidding...I'm great at giving advice, but not so good at taking it...I don't think I'll be getting much sleep before we head out of Vegas.

We just saw a bit of a television special on DCL -- at the end of the Monsters, Inc. movie on ABC -- It was great to see a little preview!!

 

[lvstitch]

We're leaving...

 

[AirTita]

It's finally here! The day we've all been waiting for!!! I'm up early to cook DH a nice Father's Day Breakfast since he can't make the cruise then he'll take us to the port ~ what service!
Looking forward to meeting all of you! Safe journey's to all!

 

[gundo870]

4 suitcases (1 full of toys), 1 case of water, 1 carry'on, 1 backpack and 1 bag...all for 2 and 1/2 people!

Thanks for everyones helpful information and it has been a really fun few months prior to the trip!

Looking forward to finally meeting everyone real soon!

Disney Magic, here we come!!

 

[14m1ckey]

What a great trip! Other than having the brakes fail on our dune buggy it was an incredible adventure! After the Zip line adventure I no longer have a fear of hieghts!

 

[lvstitch]

Well I guess it's back to reality We had a great time. Thanks everyone for the great Fish Extender gifts. I will set up a photobucket account for us tomorrow so we could share our pictures. It was nice meeting you all. Hey Marie...how ya feeling

 

[gundo870]

Wow!!! That was a good time.

Lots of good food (especially Palo), wine, deserts, ice cream and more food!! I came home weighing the same! Go figure.

Now we got the first Disney cruise under our belt, time to plan the next. Anyone else book their next cruise on this one? We booked a dummy date, hoping for the Med cruise or a cruise on the new ship.

Thanks also for all the FE gifts. That was really and it was exciting to get back to the stateroom to see what was left for us.

Now I am trying to sift through over 500 photos and alittle video to make a quick DVD for the family, doing laundry and putting this back in order.

I am too tired to write more...

 

[Dayub]

We also made it home last night. DD has to work today. It was great meeting everyone. I was not feeling to well the last 2 sea days, so I spent a lot of time in the room. Thanks to everyone for the great FE gifts.. My DD had a great time running back to the room to see what was left.

 

[AirTita]

Glad to hear people are home safe and sound - we're home and doing tons of laundry and going through withdrawals from the wonderful time my entire family had!

Thank you all so much for the wonderful FE gifts. The kids were constantly checking to see what other "goodies" the fairies left for them!

Glad to meet the ones we did and sorry we never hooked up with the ones we didn't!

I am now a Disney Cruise Line Convert and have convinced DH to go on a Disney cruise.

Thanks again to all ~ will write more later!!!

Did anyone go on the Outdoor Adventure in PV? 2 of my kids went but I didn't get any pictures!

We had a super time on our cruise. I didn't get to meet anyone but I was so busy! It was all just magical!
