Krista~I picked up the over the door bags for you and I put them with the suitcase so I wouldn't forget to pack them!

Paula

Thanks so much. Trying to think of last minute things I need. Hopefully I'm done packing tomorrow.

Krista,Gail,Donna and Shauna thanks so much for hanging out with me here. I know we are in the home stretch but it's getting hard.

I have not told Nathan yet. But friday the day we leave I plan to pick him up from school and I have a surprise for him to tell him about the cruise. So he will know for about 30 mins before we leave. And the limo is taking us to the airport. I wont tell him about the pirate room at CBR just another surprise when we get there. I have also ordered a gift basket from shirley for our cabin so the week will be full of surprises for him.

Gotta run girls its family night and I can't help but to check in. Have a good night.

We're down to SEVEN days!!!!

 

[LindaBabe]

We leave later this morning but . . . I was too excited to sleep!

I love CBR! I cannot wait to hear about the pirate rooms. I know my son would love to stay in one of those some day.

My son has a soccer game today and then all of the halloween festivities. My daughter slept over at my SIL's house last night, so I have to pick her up.

I hope everyone has a great day!

Krista and Gail thanks for keeping me company this week. Like I said this is the only place that keeps me sane. And my outlet to talk about the big secret!!! I am finding it so much harder guys.

Hope everyone is having a good night. I will check back maybe later. I have a couple more pages to get done for the swap.

We will be right here - or me anyway as we head to Nick's house on Thursday afternoon so I will be bugging out then. I really don't know how you have kept the secret Traci - I would have blown it long ago. I hope someone is with you to tape the conversation when you tell him. And then you will have to share it with all of us.

We leave later this morning but . . . I was too excited to sleep!

Gee, on the second leg (sorry guys) you posted a bit before 6:00 so I thought you were doing well but this doesn't reflect that at all. But, with all the rest and naps - and a trip no less, no wonder you are too excited to sleep. Just take care of yourself this week.

Packing is on tap for me this weekend - I will sort through what is in there as I think it is way too much and then I can begin putting it into the suitcases. Off to the grocery now though - we gotta eat and there isn't much in the house to do that with at this point.

Take care everyone and HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

A week from today - it will be our turn!

Love the picture! It gets me even more excited!

Have a good Saturday everyone! I'm hoping to finish up my FEs. I'm sure the rest of you already have those done.

Hi everyone

We are still here too...just up to our eyeballs in packing!
DD & DS are over at DMIL's house carving pumpkins and whatnot while we try to get everything jammed in!
Super busy week coming up, so if it's not packed this weekend, it's probably not getting packed.

Traci - we are dying to hear the whole story about how and when you tell Nathan!
Linda, so glad to hear you are feeling better.
Kathy, we are getting down to the last of our fresh stuff too, no point buying anything right now.

I am super excited to hear about the new ship while onboard. Woo hoo!

Can't wait for next Sat. to meet all of you and finally be on the Magic!!

PS - DH Joe has been lurking for some time on here, he is too shy to say hello, but he is here...

Hi, Joe!

 

[TiggerzFan]

Um, not so much! But, mine should be by the end of the weekend!

Morning all,

Gail,
would you post the link to the web cam where you got the picture from please.

We use to have a cam with that angle but it quit working months ago, now the ones we have barely show the bow of the ship when in port. Thankyou.


Well its pouring rain today and just ugly out. So glad we are leaving tomorrow. Linda drive safe and we'll see you in a few days.


Hi Joe


Have a safe and happy Halloween everyone.

Back later,
Kathy

 

[stampinshauna]

Just finished up my FE gifts!

Next I need to get my scrap swap out of the way.

Sunny here today, still cool, but it is supposed to get up to 50. This is a big improvement from the 30s and snow we had earlier this week. I'm so ready for 80s and sun on our trip!

Do any of you want the ship sail from the two palms cam? Here is that link if you are interested. Start watching about 5:15 - 5:20 or so and you should see her sail by.

Well, grocery and a few more cruise items are out of the way. Heading to orgainize for tomorrows packing - maybe I can pare down.

 

[mom x4 grandma x4]

Thanks Gail,

I had 2 palms but the one for right at the port wasnt working. That one works great

Krista -

Our school's troops celebrated today because there is no school tomorrow and "J-Low's" b-day is the 31st. Yep, daughter is a Brownie and I'm a Co-Leader and Assistant School Coordinator.

Donna,

How many girls do you have in your troop?

Krista

 

[mom x4 grandma x4]

Howdy all,

Gosh its hard to keep busy enough to pass the time when leaving is so close.

Other than the last minute toiletry items we are all set.

Oops, I do need to pack for the dogs yet. But that takes all of 5 minutes.

Hope everyone is having a good day. Our rain is now showers instead of solid rain, so thats nice.


Back later,

Kathy

Hello Everybody!
Grey misty day in the north east. We made it to Newark, DE, with a stop at Campmor and another at Winterthur Gardens. Fortunately, there was a tram. We rode it around and walked through one of the galleries. Then I was exhausted, so we rode the tram back, had some coffee and a go through the shop and that was it. Glad I didn't have to pay $18 each for that! Tonight, dinner at Ali Baba. YUM.

 

[mom x4 grandma x4]

Linda, sounds like your having a great time but don't over due!!! We want you well for the cruise


Rain has finally stopped here, at least for a bit.

We are charging the DVD player for the plane right now.
Also tonight is the OSU game in one hour we will watch. GO DUCKS!!!


Hope your all having a safe, happy Halloween,

Kathy
