for right now I am not splitting the list. if it hits 40, then I will split it.

Whether it is split or not at this point doesn't matter to us--we just need final numbers of kids, adults, teens/young adults and if they're male or female. I know that sounds like I"m asking a lot, and for that I'm sorry, but for what we're thinking of, it really does make a difference as to if things are made for male or females or if we're gonna do it as cabin/family or for individuals. Is there a cut off date for joining the FE?

The list you have is the current one... I just added names to cabins.

The cut off is April 1st.

I think that 40 is a good cut-off for the split. It'll be a lot, but I think that anything less than that, then the 2 groups end up being small.

For us, we've been at the very beginning of this FE thing, when it was still very informal and people didn't "sign" up. You just had a list of people in our DIS group with their cabin numbers and you did what you wanted to do. Not everyone did it, but most did and it's a treat to get things along the cruise. It's actually a highlight of our cruise for our girls! They love running back to the room to see if there's any "mail".

Thank you ver much! I have already leaned so much by reading the previous post.

By the way, your daughters look darling! I iwsh mine was that age again!

Aww, thanks! That's actually an old picture of the girls. They're almost 8 and 10 now. They would rather be dead than dress alike now, lol!

Many of you have responded to me regarding paypal and I have made notes about it and will send out invoices or pm you where to send the payment to.

As far as a DISmeet I think it was suggested on Facebook that we do it before the musterdrill at the Vista Cove. If anyone has suggestions please let me know. Also if you have not provided me with the cabin number either with roll call or with the lanyards, please let me know. This is incase we miss each other at the meet and I can leave it at your cabin.

I also updated the rollcall and I do believe everyone is listed only once

Can't wait to start seeing the fish extenders (whether we see them here or once we're on board). We have 1 side of ours just about finished--we're making our's two sided, one side for most days of the cruise, one side for Pirate night!

As far as posting picture, click on the little icon in the post/reply area that looks like a mountain with a sun over it. Only problem is, it says it needs a url for it--its not like just posting straight from your computer. And I've tried using my picassa account and haven't been able to get any images come through--maybe those of you that have success can tell those of us that haven't had any success with it. PLEASE!!!!!

You need to put your photos in an account like photobucket and it will give you a url to be able to put it in a post.

I bought some material to do a new non-sew FE for this cruise. I want this one to just have the two pockets for me and DH. Our last one had 4 pockets since Mom and DD joined us.

Okay here it is....I think I am going to have our last name put across the top area....I was looking an Iron On patch that could be customized but I have not been able to find one. If anyone knows where I can get one please let me know.

Thanks!!!

Absolutely adorable!!! You did a spectacular job and I can sew and I would never know that you didn't stitch this!!!

It looks GREAT! I think you can purchase either adhesive backed or iron letters from somewhere like Hobby Lobby or Michael's and put the name on yourself. I've never used them before, but I'm thinking I've seen them in various styles and sizes that are available.

91 days people!!!! 90 days from today I'll be driving to Port Canaveral and in 91 days I'll be boarding that beautiful ship! I'm so excited. Something tells me that I am not alone in this feeling

 

[bagley15]

You are SOOOO not alone!!! We have been counting down since 125 days with our seven year old daughter! Not to mention we get to start booking things tomorrow!!!

 

[Magic3forme]

For all those that are at 90 days...

Let us know what bookings you are able to get!!

 

[verygfy]

I can't wait to start booking! I will definitely let you know what I get

 

[goofymama]

I can't wait to start booking! I will definitely let you know what I get

Are you staying up all night to book? I'm thinking about taking my laptop to bed with me and setting my alarm for 12 and 3 and trying to sleep in between .... But I'll probably be too excited. I'm like a child on Christmas eve

I was able to get Palo dinner reservations as I wanted on Tuesday night, but all brunch and tea reservations were already sold out. There was a tea opening on Thursday, but I really wanted brunch. In the minutie or two that it took me to check other days for possible brunch openings, the tea opening was gone and I missed out :-(

 

[verygfy]

I was able to get dinner on Tuesday night like I wanted. Brunch was sold out so I to settled for High Tea on Thursday.

I don't think Mitch will do High Tea with me, but I have 90 days to convince him

I was able to get all the port adventures that we wanted, the Cabanas were sold out also.

 

[verygfy]

I am sorry you missed the High Tea goofymama.. That is why I snagged it as soon as I saw it. I figured worse case scenerio I can cancel it.

Maybe if I can't convince Mitch to join me you can take his place!!

I really wanted brunch to and was disappointed it was sold out. I was hoping to avoid the rush to the port, but it looks like I will be getting there as soon as possible to try and get onboard and book. Hopefully something will open up

 

[carriemp]

No brunch for us either.
