MR January 29 2012- Who's in?

[Mimiminie]

Welcome to our group. But I have some bad news... our FE group is closed now. We had to set a cut-off date early in January so that people could buy/make and organize their gifts.
BUT please come to our Meet and Greet on Sunday in the Promenade Lounge at 3:00. We will be introducing ourselves and letting the kids have a chance to meet some friends before they join in the fun in the Kids Clubs. I have 2 girls @ your girls' ages so that would be nice for them all [

Thank you for getting back to me. That would be excellent! We will meet up at 3:00. Now,if it's alright, my girls would still love to give out gifts and not expect anything I return for the fish extender. They are girl scouts and are used to SWAPS which is the girls scout version of FE gifts. They are taught to give even if they don't get anything in return. It'll be fun for them none the less. Is it possible to get a number of people participating so they can make some prezzies?
This is our first Disney cruise and I just found out about some of the extra fun! Sounds so exciting!

Hey there is list on people on page one and lots of us have a lik extra so put the fe out and see what treats they may end up any way ... Gotta love girl scouts

Post your cabin number - you might get more FE deliveries that way - no guarantees!!! Some people are already set, packed and en-route to the area so adding last minute FE gifts can be a challenge.

In my personal department, I went from zero to packed in 15 minutes! I am thankful that my DW takes care of packing for the boys and FE gifts.

I printed off the FE attendees list and planned the most enjoyable delivery route to drop off the booty!

See you all on board!

 

[megglas]

Yea!!!! So soon and we'll be sailing away

I've printed out FE lists (the spreadsheet kind!) and have them all ready to give out on Sunday at Meet and Greet.

So looking forward to putting faces to names - I'm sure there will be some suprrises!

 

[PizzieDuster]

No worries, I have extras! Can't wait to meet you all at 3pm! We have lime green gummy bracelets, whatever you call them, from our last cruise. And I can almost promise you I will have a glass of white wine in my hand.

I need a list of cabins !!!! So I will be there!

I still need a suggestion of the glow necklaces I have! Like 70! If you bend it, it will go off. Should I wait until Pirate day/night?

I'm thinking of leaving them at Guest Services on Pirate day and having you guys come up and get how many you want or I have to give them out that night.

No guarantees or expectations here! I have been reading up a bit and realize I am very late in joining in. I had no idea!

Funny thing I haven't fully packed because I thought it would be fun to make a fish extender! No sew, no less!

When I told them about the FE's they immediately wanted to get involved.
I can't wait!
Thanks for the suggestion

Awesome! I'm getting the hang of this now.

 

[Dizzy Minnie]

I wish I would of known about this board sooner. I had to keep my big mouth shut through Christmas and thought I was going to explode. But it was well worth it when I saw my girl's faces on Christmas. This would have helped me out.
I will know for next time because I think I'm gonna like the Disney cruising experience!
Thanks for all of your help and look forward to meeting all the wonderfully OCD people onboard!
cheers!

Whoo Hoo, less than 2 hours before we leave.

So happy to see the weather in Sunny Southern California. I really miss the weather down there

To those still traveling I wish you all safe travels

Can't wait to meet everyone on Sunday

 

[Magic Mornings]

There have been a few people requesting to add on to the fe list after it was closed. Did any talented organizing spredsheet maker happen to make a supplemental list of those cruisers? I have extras and would like to give them first shot at it. I understand the list is closed and don't want to open a can of worms but I figure I have extras.

Thanks, Mary! I do appreciate everyone pitching in to get the FE group organized

So imagine it's 3:00 on Sunday... If any of you are wondering who Moomy-san IS.... I will be the Pooh-sized, dark-haired Mommy in the long black dress. Just follow the BIG hairbows in the pigtails of an adorable 7 year old girl and you will find me If I'm not smiling like a maniac you've found the wrong Mommy!
We will be in San Pedro in 47 hours.

You can't hide from me cause I know what you look like. Can't wait to meet everyone on Sunday.

 

[hmontgomry]

I can't wait! ONe more day of work...I cheated today and left at 2 so I could get my hair done-lol...and had to go to Target for an alarm clock..and I'm surely not working all day tomorrow...have 6 closings tomorrow but hopefully only going to make the ones b4 noon! I made us shirts to wear so it will say our names on the front and the Bon Voyage Montgomery family on the back...shouldn't be hard to recognize us! LOL!

I hope I've remembered everything..guess as long as I have passports and cruise docs we are a ok!!

So, I realize now that I am going to go sailing with cheaters (leave work early) and OCD'ers - super cool!!!!

I made 44 copies (no OCD here ) of the FE list so that every room would have 2 and there would be extras; I also have included open spaces on the spreadsheet to add any additional names/rooms.

On Sunday, we'll also need to clarify the exact date of some birthdays and anniversaries.

I think we're covered!

 

[hmontgomry]

So my birthday is tomorrow! YAY...so I think that does entitle me to leave super early..lol..I am excited for some sun! I went tanning for 2 weeks so I wouldn't fry like I did on my last cruise in May....I was a lobster in 2 hours then...so hopefully I can handle the sun okay..and I brought tons of lotion!

[PizzieDuster]

Went through this whole thread again (looking for some more detailed dates etc for FE gifts) and it made me realize, I'm going to miss you when we come home.




Anyway! Woo hoo! I don't have to cook for a week! And more importantly I have all serious stuff taken care of at the home front when I'm gone. I've got my cousin checking into my Facebook page every day so I can still collect my coins/tokens for all my games I play. She better not mess it up! jk Oh, and someone I'm sure will walk my dog.

I totally know what you mean. Though...There is absolutely no reason why we all have to lose touch... we share a very cool commonality and I think we will all be fast friends IRL

How old are your girls, mine is 13.

Wow! There are gonna be 2 Stella's in one place? Unheard of!

It is so nice being able to get to "know" a few people before getting on the ship.

My two girls:
Marisa 10
Gia 8 (going on 16)
Are sooooo excited to their first Disney cruise!
The question is.....more excited than ME? I think it's pretty equal!
See you on Sunday @ 3:00
