Here are some photos if the bands. Like I said, they are a bit hard to read but can't miss the color!

I tried to get the band flat enough so you guys could see...

Amanda: I jsut have to tell you that we have very similar wedding sets! I was like....wait....that's my ring set... (Before I even noticed the bracelets!) Thanks for doing the bracelets as they look great!

Mati: I'm pretty happy with my Disigner's t-shirt designs. Hopefully, my transfers will rrive today and I can get the shirts made this weekend. Still trying to pick shirt colors...but may just stick with white...

Shawan: Thanks for the update! 4 Weeks will certainly fly!

Hope everyone has a wonderful day and weekend! I'm hoping to go shopping and find a formal dress and a pair of jean shorts. If I can't find a better dress, I have a black floral maxi dress which will have to suffice...

I'll send it to you via Facebook. I have the movie (no the acting is not so great). I really don't like the actress because a) she is a just ok actress & b) she ALWAYS acts like she's so above doing this movie or her fans...I think someone needs to remind her that people tripped over themselves to be in her role & she needs to be a bit more appreciative of her blessings seeing how her paycheck for the next movie is like $10 mil!

Anyway... I can bring the dvd if you want me to so you can see it.

I got your message, thanks so much!! I wish I could dream up a good book!!!

I have read this about the actress somewhere before, thats whats putting me off seeing the film. I think I won't watch it until I have read all the books, then she can't ruin them for me!

I just finished reading all 4 books about 2 weeks ago. It was still an awesome re-read. Still as hooked as the first time I read them. I feel the same way about the movie. We'll have to talk on the ship!

I'm sure you've noticed my tag and pic!! Love Twilight!!!
There's a thread I've been posting on since last year and we're already on part 4!!! That's over a thousand pages!

Just in case any of you are interested...
http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=2143137

I'm kind of scared of getting the Twilight series because I get soooooo addicted to reading books! It's bad... Adam does not even exist when I'm into a great read! Plus, I don't want to be so "hooked" that I spend my vacation reading the whole time!

I am so excited to read all these positive comments!! Come on and arrive already next books (not that I have finished the first one yet!). I am such an avid reader, I can't believe I have fallen so behind on this series!!!!

Thanks for that link Chastity - I have saved it to my favourites for once I have finished reading! I never knew that was what your tag meant either!

Got it.

I will be in the terminal from about 10am -first boarding
After that, my mom (Tink113sMom) will be handing them out at the first cruise meet 3pm. I will be there, but a tad late since I am doing the walking ship tour.

If we don't connect any of those times, I will leave them in my FE outside my stateroom.

Hope that helps!

You will have to hang them all up your arms so we can just come along and pick them off!!! We won't miss you then! We are hoping to arrive at 10 ish so see you there!

Wow -- can't believe you are just now reading them.
Is it odd for a 38 year old mother of 2 to be in love with a 17 year old vampire? I would mention my other crush but hey, wouldn't want to ruin the story for you Sonya!
........................

Sonya -- we are still thinking of the Med. Cruise so can't be a fair judge there for you. I LOVED Crete on our honeymoon and love love love Italy so for me, that would be my choice. Of course if we go, no we will not bring the kids. They are way too young to really appreciate it.

:

I know - I was so out of the loop! Ever since I didnt like the "Interview with a Vampire" film back in the 90's I decided Vampires weren't my cup of tea! I have never even seen the George Clooney vampire film! And I love me some George!!!!!!!!!

I am almost certain we will see the parks at Christmas and cancel the Med. Its been something I have wanted for so long. But I just feel we should see part of Europe as I have hardly seen any of my own continent!!! I am so confused!! I will know more how I feel once we are on board - I may not even like cruising, yeah right!!

I agree about Florida, I love the heat and I have been in December and January and it really is hit and miss with the warm weather....Disney does do Christmas right!! We went to the MVMCP last year and I loved it even though it was soo cold. The Med cruise on the other hand...might be awhile until they go back to the Med...not sure when the next time will be....so I guess that I am not that much help, am I? Either way, you will have a great time.

:

You are right, either way they will both be Disney so I am a lucky girl whatever happens!

Here's a chuckle for you~

When I first saw "fish extender" in a subject line on these boards (it was awhile ago!) I didn't bother reading the thread because (I can't believe I'm going to admit this!) I thought it was an extended invitation for others to join on a fishing excursion (you know how other Disers open up their fireworks cruise to others if they have room)! This memory just popped into my head as I was looking through our thread!

Classic!!! It took me about 6 months of reading different reports before I could figure out what the blasted things were!!!!!

You are not alone. I love him too!!

How can a book character be so gorgeous?!

Do I hear a DIS Twilight discussion group forming for a poolside chat? lol
Sonya - You'll have to read all 4 because it gets a little blurry as to what happened when & if we start talking about it we may blab!

Agreed -- Sonya honey, READ up!!!!! We want you ALL done on the ship PLUS we DON'T want your nose in a book the whole time either and all four books are hard to put down, not just the first.
)

Oh the pressure!!!!!!!! I will do the best I can. Better sit in my hotel room for two weeks and read rather than visit the parks!!!! Who can take Tony out for me?!

And could we have the reading group in Cove Cafe?! Free cakes peeps!!!!

While I've never done the Med Cruise (and would love to) I have been to the parks when they are decorated for Christmas and we loved it. NOONE decorates like Disney. I would highly recommend anyone do it at least once. The only problem that we had was we went in early December and when we got home to celebrate here, we were a little let down with our own decorating efforts. Can't advice you on which you should do, but whichever you choose will be fantastic.

Hi, my name is Jane and I've not read any of the Twighlight books.... I feel SO left out.

I just have to see them at Christmas, there is no getting away from it!

You have to read it!!!! in case all the above posts didn't convince you!!

Drum roll please...............

Can you believe it?????​

Looks like it is going to be a beautiful day here (finally)

I noticed you are a 22 hr drive from WDW-wouldn't happen to be NJ would it? Are we neighbors?

We, too, FINALLY have a nice day here in northern NJ!

My boss actually told us to leave early today. Ahhhh, so nice to be after April 15th!!!!

We didn't get anything in the mail today either!!!! I'm so excited for those who did!!!!

 

[krishouse]

We got ours today!!! Yayy, they sent a second envelope in my 9year old son's Keaton's name???
All the same room and such but a second envelope for just him!! He was absolutely thrilled!! lol.
I am excited but still have to work on my fish extender!!! And ironing and packing!!...so much to do so little time!!!

 

[Pooh's-Honey-Pot]

Hmmm so if someone wanted to book a deluxe resort for Christmas 2010 (I know, I know, go somewhere different for once Sonya) . . . how would one get a really good price?! I seem to remember a few weeks ago on here someone mentioned there are ways of doing this . . . !! That said, getting a moderate for a cracking price would do me!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thats so sweet!!!!! Its the little touches that make Disney so great!

I am putting our FE gifts all together tomorrow, I have to plough back through the last few pages and get everyones room numbers first!

I just prepaid my basic tips ($165.00 for the two of us), plus prepaid what I expect to be all our onboard costs. I know it is silly, but it feels "free" to me if I pay it before I go! I am so, so, so ready to go cruising now.

Yea!!! so great that you got to leave early!! I am just wrapping up work now for the weekend. Yippee!! I live in Ontario...22 hours too far away!!

What a great feeling to prepay, I might do the same thing. Great idea.

C'mon cruise docs for everyone!!!

I seem to remember a few weeks ago on here someone mentioned there are ways of doing this . . . !! That said, getting a moderate for a cracking price would do me!!!!!!!!!!!!

Probably me saying that you could get a deluxe for a good price. I think that the best time to go is between Thanksgiving and Christmas. If you go right at Christmas it is expensive and VERY crowded. We have gone about two weeks before Christmas and it was great. Remember also that the closer you get to Christmas the colder it will be.

I checked for Christmas time in 2009 and for a Studio at the Beach Club Villas (a deluxe) for one week, December 12th thru December 19th and the cost would be $1,040 for those seven nights. That is the total price including tax. I have a couple of people that I rent points from and they can make reservations at the Beach Club Villas eleven months ahead. So if you wanted to go December 2010 you would make reservations in January 2010.

This is the BEST way to stay at Disney at a Deluxe. You should go check out the Beach Club and Boardwalk area while you are there in May, it just a five minute walk out the back of EPCOT.

Let me know if you need any help or we can talk on the cruise.
