November 17, 2012 TURKEY Cruise

[castoff]

We booked this cruise in March and are looking forward to a great trip. My family consists of myself, Elizabeth, my husband Geoffrey, son Preston 12, and daughter Wilson 6. There will also be three other families traveling with us but I don't want to post their information.

We did the FE on our last cruise and loved it but probably won't do it on this cruise since we will already have so much going on within our own family.

My sister in law and I will most likely run the 5k.

I just read through all of the posts and saw that there is a Facebook page and I am going to sign up for that. I know I am new but it would be great if that link could be added to the roll call page so new people will no it exists.

We will be celebrating 4 birthdays onboard. My daughters birthday is actually on the 14th but we are going to celebrate on the first night. My husbands in on the 18th, mother in law on the 22nd, and brother in law on the 28th ( will celebrate on the last night).

We will be going to WDW 2 or 3 days before the cruise and hopefully attending the Christmas party. The last time we went on a cruise we stayed at WDW before the cruise and it worked out beautifully. We left WDW around 9 and drove straight to the port. Actually, our children didn't know we were going on a cruise and we kept it a secret until the last check in point.

Welcome Aboard ! I have added your information to the roll call. If anything needs to be changed just let me know.

Wardrobe didn't like anything I brought with me. So I am wearing there clothes & shoes that they picked out. It was sooooo weird seeing everyone in clothes from the 80's ! At least the hair lady liked my hair and didn't change it. I used to have the big hair.......can't do that now. This is a GREAT family movie and is based on a true story. It's Hallmark so have tissues on hand. Name of movie is A Smile as Big as the Moon. It will air on Sunday Jan. 29th on ABC. I don't wan't to give to much away........it's about Special Ed students and a teacher who makes it possible for them to go to a real space camp. I am in the opening scene of movie playing a vistor to a planetarium. Sitting next to me is a student who stands up yelling and throws a notebook at someone. John Corbett plays the teacher and is sitting in the row behind me. I wasn't allowed to take any pictures but did get a pic. of me and will upload today. It's from a phone so I hope it turned out. It was a long day 15 hrs. and I hope to do more work on this film.......just have to wait & see.

How exciting! Can't wait to see your movie!

I moved my dummy booking to the Thanksgiving 2013 Fantasy cruise. I booked online at about 8:15AM and was able to get one of the reclassified
7A's for a great price. Almost $1000 less than what Im paying for Thanksgiving 2012 - and a better category.

So now I get to spend Thanksgiving with the mouse 2 years in a row - YEAH!!!

W00T! That's great, Ginny

Hi everyone... sorry I jumped in a couple weeks ago then disappeared. Lots happened between then and now. I lost a grandchild and my mother in law within 2 days of each other among a few other things.

I am back now so hopefully I can catch up and jump back in. I am still on the cruise!

A friend and very talented Disigner, Judy, made this logo to go with our Feasting on the Fantasy slogan. I hope everyone likes it! I sure do! Kudos to JustTJ on the boards.

And here is a smaller size...

This logo looks great!

Wow! The logo is fantastic! Love the green Mickey head.

Should we all make similar tickers?

Well guys, I am very excited about the Fantasy and can't wait. BUT......

I'm getting ready to sail this Thanksgiving 2011 on the Oasis of the Seas! I've already done some packing. Once this one is over (totally not wishing it away!!!) the countdown will for 2012 will begin!

Last Thanksgiving we cruised on the Emerald Princess for a 10-night southern Caribbean cruise and the year before that on the Wonder. It's a great time of year to sail.

Hi Janice! How are things in New Jersey?

I agree -- I wish Judy and her family could join us. It was so nice of Judy to take the time to do our turkey cruise logo. I forgot to mention that the turkey with the green mickey head body is courtesy of Milliepie, another talented and super generous Disser!
