November 1, 2008 "Election Day Castaways!"

[muffin07]

Both the Fish Extenders look great, someone did a good job in making them.
The green bracklets are a great idea, we will order two of them and I am sure
my daughter-in-law will order three of them too. We are flying down early and flying out of Philadelphia and have a direct fight, so no chance of missing the boat. This is our family first cruise and really looking forward to it.
We haven't been able to make any other reservations as of yet, as we have
to wait until 75 days out, but it sounds like you all have that finished already.
We are just going to try to book Palo for the brunch on any day, we will
have to wait and see what is avaliable, not going to try and get all stress out
if, it dosen't work out. Will try and log on when our window opens up and try to book it then. If not we are going to take a car to the port from WDW and will try to see if any opens up on the day that we board the ship. So wish
this new group some pixie dust. Finished shopping for our fish extenders gifts, did some summer clothes shopping, and now just try to get all the little
odd and ends together. I have been reading the dis boards on all the little
helpfully hints from the experience cruisers, so any hints will be appreicated.
Muffin07 and family.

Here is ours, pirate themed.

That is SO cool!
Whoever made it did a beautiful job.

FE's--who is Tiffany and how much does she charge for the awesome FE's?

Wristbands--I think it will be easier to go with the company that has no minimum, and I've ordered from them before and was pleased. They just barely started carrying the child's size (6 inch) but the closest they have to lime green is just regular green. They do carry lime in 7 inch and 8 inch. So, should we all go with regular green or do lime for the youth/adults and green for the little ones? The 7 inch ones will be rather big for kids as I can wear a 7 inch. Since we won't be trying to split an order with other groups, is everyone okay with "Election Day Castaways 2008"

Tiffany is someone I got through Ebay. If you want her email address, please email me or PM me directly as to not spam her. Our cost was $30

She does different themes for you, my family are pirate crazed people... Every vacation for last 8yrs has had some type of pirate themed activity involved, so it fits us well. I'm sure if you're into sports etc, it would be doable. Tell her you got her name from me so I take heat for passing out email address

Not picky...lime for adults and green for the kids is fine by us.

That sounds great to us, too!! Thank-you Stampin Shauna!!

Hi everyone! I have been reading all the messages and learning alot. Sounds like a fun group to meet in 80 some days. We would like the bands aleast 3 maybe a 4th for the scapbook. I lke the Election Day Castways 2008. size 8 sounds good(I have large wraists) DD is more excited for the trip than starting second grade. I am just looking forward to mid Sept. when work slows down some and school starts. Arranging summer camps and who and when to dropoff & pick up DD from three different camps is harder than collecting and shipping out 20,000 beetles a week. (Yes I work with insects.)
Go USA in the Olympics

I got this idea from another diser. I used puzzlemaker.com. to make a search puzzle.


The title is: Where are you going on vacation?

They will have to find 23 words in the puzzle.

With the "leftover letters" it will spell:

On the cruise ship "Disney Magic" tomorrow

If you want a copy of this PM me w/ your email & I will attach it using MSword.

I am so excited that I finished the puzzle in less than 8 minutes

I am planning on a limo picking the kiddos up from school for an early dismisal. We will then drop their school stuff off at home. It about 20 or so minutes to get to the airport. I will give them this puzzle once we are at our gate. This will help to kill the time before boarding the plane. It will take the kiddos about 20 minutes or so to figure it out. DH & I will be helping the kiddos w/ the answers.

I am so excited!

How many more days is it until the cruise??

Welcome Buglady.

What neck of the woods are you from? O.K. got to ask, cause it's really creeping me out... . Bugs?? You do this for a living? Fill me in....

 

[wuv tigger]

It's Ok w/ me if they are 2 different green colors.

Each of us will get one & I know I have to have one for the scrapbook. It might be the ONLY bumpy thing in my scrapbooks.

That is SO COOL!!! I LOVE it!!! What a great day they are going to have- followed by all the other awesome days on the cruise! I still am very impressed you continue to keep the secret!! Take LOTS of pics to show us the surprise!!!

Now I gotta hope NO ONE else spoils the surprise. We don't have any family gatherings between now & then. That's a big help.

I can't believe that we have 2 months, 2 weeks & 3 days before we head to Fl.

I just gotta figure out the FE gifts, and whether to order the FE or make it myself. I am leaning on ordering it.

Have a great day!

School starts in 12 days

You gotta tell us what you do with bugs

Welcome aboard the Election Day Castaways!!

Ditto and ditto- what do you do with the bugs???? I am DYING to know!!!

 

[LBIGirl67]

OK, put us in for 3 A and 1 C bands. The adults would prefer the larger ones. Hubby is a contractor and has big arms/wrists so 7" might be tight.
DS14 plays football and has bulked out to where he's bigger than dad !! Me well....I'm just a plus sized hottie and prefer the larger size. OMG< I can not believe I wrote that !!!
Any color is fine with us ! Let us know the payment options when all said and done.

I've been searching the net and have come up with a few different companies to order from. Depending on how many we end up with will determine who I order from (the price is about the same, but some have better quantity discounts than others). I think I'll be able to get lime green for everyone. Please let me know if you'd like wristbands and what size (6 inch sm, 7 inch med, or 8 inch lg).

Here's who I have so far (let me know exact sizes or if I have something wrong)...
