May 18, 2013 MAGIC EBTA - Who is with us?

[twopeasonepod]

I told my husband the night before we found out that I thought we should have two boy names and two girl names "just in case." I just had this weird feeling. Then we found out the next day and my husband almost fell over and said, "She said last night she thought it was twins " It's the only psychic moment of my life

Maybe my girls can convince your boys to try it!

You should remind him and the girls that you have that gift when you want something or to go somewhere -- that you can predict the future!

I wouldn't mind organise the pin trading please? And yes I think maybe we should draft in someone else for Secret Mickey? Then if berries97 comes back she can always co-ordinate with the new organiser and work together if she/he so wishes?

tink thanks for volunteering, updated list.


Can you put myself and dd beth down for this, we love pins!

 

[binkytell]

You rock! I might have to owe you a drink.

Wow it was way back on page 121 and I only posted it the other day , we are flying through this thread now you guys are getting so

LOL! I almost peed my pants reading that first part! Before pregnancies: I was often told by people I had the memory of an elephant - remembering everything. (Okay, not anything from History classes of course, which I really really wish now I had paid more attention in as I am trying to figure out what Rome is known for... LOL) But after pregnancies? Oh yea. I have to write it down. I have this little spiral notebook I ordered from VistaPrint with one of their many sales. It has a map and WBTA pirate night pictures on the front. I have been putting all of our main info here. I know, I have TripIt as well and can upload there, and will before we go, but for now I have the key things in that spiral, especially reservation confirmation numbers, etc. It really is true what they say about "preggo brain" and having to "donate brain cells to your child". No, not preggo again nor any plans, but I just never got those brain cells back! My handy journal helps me.

Now I know why I'm so forgetful now, kids . Really, I was great with remembering stuff years ago. I do think my kids sucked out my brain cells.

By the way... I am inbetween appointments with clients and successfully avoiding everything I need to be doing. sigh. I'm going to try to give it a 30-minute burst of energy to tackle laundry.

I. Hate. Laundry.

That's one of the chores I don't mind. I'll do your laundry if you'll dust for me!

You should remind him and the girls that you have that gift when you want something or to go somewhere -- that you can predict the future!

It's the only thing I've predicted! But I also predicted they were fraternal, and I got that wrong.

I rarely checked here before, but now that we're so close, and the holidays are over, I can't stop checking in

 

[binkytell]

im not sure if I've missed this or not but do we have
A name for our cruise? I cant recall ever seeing one or if it was discussed at some point, and was wanting to make a start on my ideas for FE gifts .

Kidding. Just posted that since there's no return TA for passengers.

I don't think we do - I think Valbob was saying about having the message a MAGICal journey on the shirts?

No worries, I am looking forward to it!

Now what do I do?? Hehe only joking, I have a plan up my sleeve

 

[GoofyNewfie]

To all the new organizers and old, it's been a while since I've put out a reminder. If you're a little computer-savvy, as the website organizer, I can give you administrator access to the page of the event that you're organizing. With administrator access you can do whatever you like with your page on the website. Put up a google spreadsheet, pictures, whatever you like. I believe all you need is a Google Sites account which is free and easy to set up.

Or, alternatively, I can do it for you on your direction.

I do agree with others though that when we get the new thread up and running that we should put a summary on the first post and organizers should have their own post they can update. The website simply lets us get a little fancier.

Alternatively, I can set up the website to link directly with the Disboards like I have done for MandyGirl's helpful Galveston info she posted a while back.

There was a name chosen before I came along and I assumed we all knew it. It's on the website and in the URL - that's why it's so long.

HAHAHA that is AWESOME! I'm not kidding either!

I, too, can't stop checking in. I love reading everything. It's getting so exciting! Last night, after a couple of cocktails and a very stressful day (I actually don't see clients on Mondays but I had to testify in court), I sent an email to the boys teachers about them missing school. Ooops!

Uh-oh, what did the teachers say?

We're super lucky. I talked to the school and the girls' teacher and everyone's ok with them missing class. They do just fine in school and they are only third grade, so it's not going to be a huge deal. But it will be weird as we'll come home for the last week of school.

I don't think we do...here are a few suggestions, but we don't have a name yet as far as I know.

2013: Galveston to Barcelona
A Magical journey to Spain
Kidnapped again – the Magic heads East
A Magical journey from Galveston to Spain
2013: the Magic moves east

Re: Linked dining. I'd really love to sit with all you fine folks but does Disney really handle it in such a way that you'd see all my spa and excursion bookings, I'd see yours and we could change each others? I'd hate to accidentally screw up someone else's bookings.

I got confused as people were describing how it would work.

 

[heatherb819]

Saddle up it's a 14 day ride! (don't laugh) just came to mind. Something of that nature since we are leaving out of Texas!

How did I miss this?

I think padalyn is right, is that not just the name val was using for shirts ?

I'm sure that will go down well - not , can't wait to hear the reply you get.

I will leave it till couple of days before we leave

Lots of choices there, I like kidnapped as the magic definitely has a hold over us

That makes me nervous as well, but anyone feel free to book me a spa appt and charge it to your account.
