DD's finals are this week - the band will play at graduation Thur night - and then she is done

You haven't seen my kid eat - especially when she is in her 'full blown' training for swimming -

Four more days of school here. I work in a primary CD (cognative disability) class. We usually have the same kids for 2-3 years. This year, due to a set of housing projects being torn down, we are losing most of our kids, so it will be a sad couple of days.

 

[DVC Mary]

Denise: I'm sorry you are losing kids you've become so close. I hope for the kids that they get placed other goods schools w/ teachers who care as much as you!

Final Exams for 3 days

Thurs. Meetings & then "School's out for summer!"


I've got to start a staging area for our WDW trip. I just ordered some pins for the kids to trade--paid about 1.80 each.

We don't collect very many, but the kids love trading them w/ the CMs.

Have a great week everyone!

Okay.....we're getting to the one year mark. I'm hoping my kids can start getting to know other kids their age on this thread.

I have a ds who will be 12 when we go on this cruise next year. He loves to play sport....

I also have a dd who will be 15 by this time next year...she's wanting to get to know someone before she leaves.

How does this work for the kids? Do they just send PM's to each other? Sorry for all the questions....this is the first time we done this before a cruise.

Hi There!

May I join this party? We just got off the June 8th Wonder double dip (well, with a few extra days at Vero Beach), and while onboard, we booked for this cruise too!!! I'm SO excited that DH agreed to it! We booked two rooms, one Cat. 6 for DH and I, and one Cat. 11 literally across the hall for DD's (one will be 21 and the other is turning 16 on the cruise). We're even one stateroom down from where we were on this double dip cruise, so we'll pretty much know where we're going (especially after a few drinks!!!!).

Welcome Pat!!! We'll have our DD and nephew who will both be 18 and a little guy, another nephew who will be 8!

I've come to join the party!!

We just got off the Wonder, and knew we were wanting to rebook for next year while on board. I have been pretty much jealous of the Tortola cruises ever since they announced them, and so that was my DREAM cruise. We looked and sorted out numbers, crunching and deciding on times of year. We thought that this time next year would be a good time, and it ended up being a Tortola cruise! We also looked at my dad's birthday in July, which was a cheaper option, plus had Key West and Grand Cayman (both of which my parents wanted to see), BUT I wanted 3 sea days, AND TORTOLA!

So, we did it... bit the bullet and booked!

We wanted to save a smidge of money, so we are in a GTY cat 8. We had zero complaints about our cat 9 last year, and felt like we didn't use our cat 7 this year enough to swing that cash (plus we're going to WDW twice before we even think about packing for this cruise!).

So, here's our crew:
Me-24 nurse and constant Disney trip planner of ANY Disney destination
Mom- (refuses to say her age) who loves Mickey Mouse, and anything Disney
Dad- 49, who likes Disney Vacations, but would rather do a Disney Cruise over any WDW trip!

We are way too excited! It is kinda fun that we will be sailing on Father's Day!

Hope to make some friends this cruise!

Welcome!! Your mom is probably close to my age is she refuses to say!

Thanks for reminding me about Fathers Day!! I'll have to remind my DD (18) to do something special!!

I didn't notice this until you pointed it out.....how exciting! I wonder what Disney does for the Father's on this day? I just told the kids and their excited too....let's see what they come up with.

Glad to see that not everyone going on this cruise is a teacher or lives in Ohio. I am a nurse and live in Oklahoma. This will be our second Disney Cruise, my daughter and I will sail on the Wonder on September 14, 2008, it will be just the two of us. In June we will bring my grandaughters age 14 & 8. Because of school they can't make the September sailing(so sad). We have been to WDW several times and this just seamed a logical next step.

I am already thinking about booking a 3rd cruise for Oct or Nov 2009, durning the wine and cheese festable so we can get in on that.

I'm hoping that my DD (14 yr old) and your 14 yr old can start emailing back and fro....she's wanting to get to know someone before we sail in June that's her age.

PM me when you can about this....

Hi!

[missyoh8]

Careful....there are 5 teachers from Ohio in our group on this cruise!
