Shameful bump #1. I am looking into a couple options I have thought of as prizes for the Pirate/Swan game.
Something else I want to do though: Everyone give me 1 thing that you would love to receive. Something that was a great FE gift or something you wish you had bought for your last cruise but didn't. IDEAS??

Back from the walk and some brunch since I skipped breakfast

Took about half our usual walk with water breaks, so we were outside the same amount of time as his preferred walks. Now he is laying in front of the air vent in the office, and I think that's the perfect place for him. Sleeping off all the heat from outside. He's a good doggie

Laura: I will have to come up with something. Off the top of my head I can't think of anything unless you'd like to make the deposit for my next cruise

OH WAIT: Dan's already taking care of that

This will be me in 4 months rebooking Maureen for the June cruise using Rich's credit card.

Won't he be in for a surprise when he opens the safe in the morning for his wallet

 

[TIGGER/POOH4]

Don't you hate when that happens.

 

[Octoberbride03]

Don't you hate when that happens.

Oh yeah, cause it never leads anywhere good

 

[TIGGER/POOH4]

Oh yeah, cause it never leads anywhere good

and that would be a problem

On to more serious topics. Anyone up for lunch at topsiders?

Okay, since we are trying to rack up some posts...here's the cake I just finished for my Goddaughter and her twin's graduation party tomorrow. Let me explain it. The middle school's mascot is a dragon. School colors maroon and gold. The high school is the Darien Blue Wave.

So I made the dragon maroon and gold and she's holding two diplomas...one in each claw. Blue waves all around. And since she would have looked funning just sitting on top of some blue waves....I made a little island for her to sit on. LOL. I can't wait to see their faces tomorrow.

Its been awhile since we've mentioned this, but its once again time to talk group t-shirts

I know some of you mentioned lanyards, wristbands and/or pins..... but in the course of designing and discussing it with my Dh and other people, the finished product is a t-shirt. Dollar for dollar a custom tee is the best value and identifier for the money.

So with a lot of back and forth between TIGGER/POOH4 and me, we have come up with the design shown in the link below. And let me tell you finding the right color for this was no easy task Took us 3 websites for this shirt to work. Finally hit upon the right site today and after a flurry of emails between us, this is the agreed upon finished product.

Now I want to assure everybody that NO ONE is required to buy it. And you are also NOT REQUIRED to make your entire group wear the shirt. Please feel free to buy it just for you if that's the case.

And while it is not the cheapest shirt on the market, the more we order the lower the price gets, and the site has a nice sign up sheet for collecting sizes.

Have a look see and we really hope that you buy a shirt

WOOOHOOOO!!!! Summer break has finally arrived!!

eh...pardon the excitement but DH & I are glad to be finished with school for the summer - it's been a rough year.
AND to add to the excitment....we leave on sunday morning to start our traveling.

First up...Project Mickey!! Have I told you all about this yet?? Pardon me if i have. DH & I are taking 24 middleschoolers to WDW for 5 days as apart of Disney's Y.E.S. program. We'll get to go behind the scenes at AK, HS, and MK. I most excited about going behind the scenes of the Haunted Mansion - this is one of my favs and will be cool to experience it in a new way! Needless to say, We are so pumped!! & a little terrified....24 middleschoolers!?!
I hope we don't lose any of them and everyone has a blast! Send some extra pixie dust our way for luck!!
If you want to read all about Project Mickey, DH is writing a trip report on www.**************** titled "I know I'm crazy, but hear me out.." lol appropriately titled...

So as soon as we get back from Project Mickey, we head out again 4 days later to take our annual family trip to WDW! We're staying at AKL for 10 days with our cousins and aunt. We are looking forward to this trip!! We eating at several of our favs: Boma, Nine Dragons, Garden Grill....and eating at a few new ones: Cape May and Sci-Fi Drive-In.
Can't wait for the 3am MK night - my favorite part of our visits!!

At the end of this part of our travels, DH and I plus our Aunt will meet up with some other family members in Clearwater Beach for my Sis-in-laws wedding.

and we'll end up back at WDW for the 4th of July, where my aunt has decided to splurge and stay at the Contemporary. I've never stayed there, so i'm looking forward to that. I've also never been at the world durning the 4th and DH says they have the best fireworks show then. Anyone have any suggestions on where we should watch those fireworks?

Needless to say, DH & I will be running ourselves silly over the next few weeks, but it will be filled with lots of laughs and tons of pixie dust!!
Hope everyone stays cool and enjoys the next few weeks!

Hi! I went to the site and it asks you for your Name, Email (which was showing up as your email) and the Group, Event or Celebration Name. I typed my name and the the next thing I know is it's showing my name with your email even though I tried to back out of it. I messed up! Anyway, I'm not sure if you already created the list for collecting the sizes. It's not giving an option for that.

Well this explains the emails I have sitting in my email from Custom Ink And i was thinking that Dan set it up.

Well we'll see if I can't get it tweaked. I thought about creating the list last night, but I wanted to see what the reaction was here first.
