that was not me but it is me now I lost so much weight at the front end of each pregnancy that I had this cute little baby belly, no butt, and skinny face (I miss my skinny face I watched videos from when the kids were little the other night and saw how thin I looked. If only I could stop myself from eating and get some exercise, such a simple solution...

Hi Everyone -

Just wanted to stop by an say Hello . We have been planning this cruise for the last year and half and I can't believe it is finally almost here! We are cruising with my family (parents, sister & family and brother & family). We (me & my immediate family) are the only ones who have cruised before so we are so excited to share this experience with the rest of the family . My mom is very apprehensive about cruising (she does not like to travel) and so far she has not backed out - but we will see what happens when it is time to board . We have never been on the cruise over NYE so this is a first for all of us!! Now if I could just figure out if Formal night is NYE...

Hi Michele -- we are all trying to figure out if NYE is formal night -- I'm guessing it is, though. I haven't cruised on NYE either -- am really looking forward to it. Fingers crossed that your mother doesn't back out -- I'm sure she will love it if you can get her on board!

Finally home - man it was getting cold - it had just poured all day and stopped about an hour prior to kick off

I had cooked up a surprise for Kara, my one sil, hubby and 3 1/2 niece flew in from Dallas today and we were all sitting in the stands when the band marched on the field for pregame

We started waving and we could see Kara's eyes getting bigger and bigger - as they were marching off the field she was laughing and pointing - we were just standing there yelling SURPRISE

We walked down 50 yd line and after we were lined up facing the home stands got my niece and she stayed on the field with Kara and I until end of 1/2 time. I was good and didn't cry - but I did get laughing - they called Maria instead of Marla

Welcome onboard msec

I agree ~ lets go with 15 FE's (total of 16 rooms signed up). We are starting to come down to the wire and with Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas coming up we all have a ton of work coming up that doesn't include the cruise. Then the cruise itself we all need to start getting ready for.

So 15 Fish Extender Gifts is what you should plan for.

I bet we know at least a couple of weeks pre-cruise what night formal will be on. Additionally, we will be able to get a list of the movies that will be shown on the cruise at that time as well.

Sounds great -- 15 it is . . .

If the webpage is correct, it looks like Aisling's cooking session is missing...

She sent me a note I think a couple weeks ago that she was no longer going to be doing it but instead do the ATV tour with Jesse & Cory.

If anyone hasn't seen we still have quite a few openings for the Grand Cayman Private excursion to stingray city, rum point beach, etc.

 

[Marla Hellwig]

Ok - for who wanted a pic of both of us - this is from last night senior night - we had 'kidnapped' my niece at this point

 

[tiggerwannabe]

I thought Aisling had changed her mind on the cooking excursion~

Marla, I am really enjoying your stories and photos - esp the "do you see a pattern" pictures

Anjelica, Did Nan say she any of her group was interested in the boating excursion at GC?

Aisling, I won a Rat at the Pirate Auction at the Renaissance Faire last weekend, wanted to keep her just for you but they wouldn't let me have both prizes - I eventually traded her in for the real prize which was a decorative sword.

 

[Aisling]

That's one mean-looking rat!

Rus, unfortunately I had to cancel the cooking class since Mel bailed...Jesse and Cory need an adult with them on Cozumel, and they wouldn't do the cooking, so I ended up booking an ATV tour with them.

Marla, Kara looks sooo happy with her little cousin.
I think I saw a pic of you a few years ago...did you have one in your avatar of you on a rollercoaster?

Nan, I got your message. Chad still hasn't heard. But he tells me this is routine. In the meantime, he's finishing up to have his Masters by January.

I've been so busy and tired. I went to a wedding with a 7 hour reception last night (TONS of fun), and the night before I went to a crazy Halloween party. Brian my puppy is doing well, and sleeping for longer periods thru the night, which is a big help. I love him so much.

Jesse and his friends are at the park ice rink doing a community service clean-up. The city is hoping for a Thanksgiving opening, so we need some cold weather for them to get the ice in there. I was just about to pick them up now, but he called to say they would just take the subway home. So I can relax with my Brian.

Tonight I'm going to a basketball game, so I need to nap for a while!
