Thanks for the invite to the meet and greet, disneydreamer82. We'll see how our family's doing once we board and hopefully join you for a while.

re: the gift exchange, is that for FE people only or for cruisers, too? Also, it's one per family, right?

Happy last-minute packing!

Two more days of chaos...... Then the chaos morphs into vacation fun

Make A Wish came by last night for Nico's wish granting presentation! They brought him a rolling Cars 2 suitcase, 2 shirts, a photo album, and coloring books & crayons for him and Sophia. Nico looks forward to going to the beach. Because of his tubies (port), he hasn't be able to go to the beach for the past 2 summers. He says he wants to take a picture of it and put it in a picture frame. I get all emotional just typing this, I am so thankful he is being given this gift. MAW is a wonderful organization!

One of my daycare families will be getting married on CC during your cruise, so I'll be praying for sunshine for both your CC stops! (and if you see a beautiful bride, let her know I say Congrats!)

WE're HERE! Port Canaveral Residence inn. Just had backyard barbecue - hamburgers, yummy potato salad mmmm. I NEVER let myself eat potato salad or a bun on a burger, but tonight, I had both and it was dee-licious!

What a sweet story for Nico _ I hope he gets his fill of sun and sand!

Totally forgot to bring a gift for the exchange. Oh well, my friends that aren't on the boards won't have them either, but i'll try to get them to the meet and greet anyway because of the children.

Safe travels, all!

 

[rescuetink]

Have a safe trip everyone!! We leave Friday afternoon for our flight, and then staying at the Best Western Inn & Suites by the airport!! My wife has been busier then a one armed paperhanger in a paper hanging contest!! Hopefully both our kids will spend time in the kids clubs and she'll get time to relax!!

The first contingent of family members arrived last night from Mexico. The excitement is building!

Everyone - have a FABULOUS Day!

 

[FIREFLY01]

good morning everyone!!! i can't believe only 2 more days!!!! woohoo!!!!

I promise I will start packing today of course my husband is flying today and realized this morning that with all his weight loss, his sport coat is too big, and needs some dress shirts for dinner (its a good thing they are all too big, but really 2 days prior he just realized this) so off shopping early with the little one this morning so i can get packing!!!

some things I can't travel without:
my hairdryer (hate the one on boat they have nooo power)
cell phone charger, camera battery charger, extra sd cards for camera
photo id (driver license),passport
call credit card company to inform you will be traveling out of country so no hangup if you try to use in cayman or cozumel
