Oct. 15, 2006 (4 nights on the "New" Wonder)

[SparKeLLy]

Oh no! Now I'm feeling behind, I haven't started to pack yet!!

Wedding plans are going well. I got my dress back from the seamstress yesterday. The bustle looks great. Our last major project is making our programs, and we're almost done with the design/writing part - then the assembly! After that though I should be able to tackle the honeymoon to-do list which is mostly just packing....though I really should check it over before we go shopping this weekend!

Last night I bought $75 worth of Jelly Belly Beans!! Probably the first and last time I'll do that hahahaha. They are for our favors.

Well I need to hurry up and get done with work today as I need to go get my ID renewed before the cruise.

Have fun this weekend Linda. We'll do our best to keep us on page one. Though I will be gone most of Saturday on the shopping extravaganza (poor Jacob hehehe).

 

[Sue88]

Are you going to do some shopping in London Linda? Sounds like fun! Have a great time!!! I will try to take on that mission but my husband takes command of the computer on the weekends and it may be hard for me to check in.
Hey Jules, where is Milton Kenyes? Wherever it is - have fun!

I am going shopping with my mom and dad on Saturday and probably out to eat. I am looking forward to being with them because they rarely visit. (They live about 2 hours away from me.)

 

[MJ5MOUSE]

Souds like I will have to talk to myself on Saturday to keep us on page one.
How about it .....Val, Tammy, Jen, Belinda, Mike, Amy, ........anyone out there willing to help me?

 

[saratogagirl]

Glad to hear all is goping well on the wedding front Kelly, that is a lot of Jelly Belly Beans !! Poor Jacob having to shop ha ha

Sue that will be a nice get together with your parents on the weekend, especially if you dont get to see them so often

Milton Keynes (sorry I did a typo) is a town, I am going to the Milton Keynes Bowl which is a concert venue. It is basically a huge field with a dip in the middle, it is very nice for a concert as they put the stage in the far end of the dip in the middle which means that people can stand or sit on the verge around the dip and get a good view. I am going to see Robbie Williams (again), there are six of us going so it should be good fun, we have some accommodation booked in a pub for tomorrow night as it is about 3 1/2 hours from where we live ... There is also a Robbie Williams concert there tonight and there have just been reports on the radio that people are stuck in the traffic for miles back to get there. I have a days holiday tomorrow as does Ian which means that we can leave nice and early - so should be ok ...

 

[Sue88]

Sounds fun Jules! I hope the traffic improves before you are on your way.

Kelly, Have fun shopping!! Are you going to a mall?
What flavor jelly beans? ( I like to know details ).

Jane, I will try to post Saturday morning before mom and dad arrive. Is this Friday your day off?

 

[MJ5MOUSE]

Yes this is my Friday off but I will likely work anyway.

I don't know what flavor Kelly's beans are but I bet they are green and white

Sounds like fun Jules. Have a great time.

I just put a picture from the DCL picture of the day on my PC of the Disney ship at Castawy Cay. I want to think about the cruise everyday. It is an obsession

I bought Alie some piratey stuff last night.

Tomorrow is 30 days, Let the count down begin.

 

[SparKeLLy]

Yes we're going to the mall and to Target...possibly a craft store if I figure out we need something.

The Jelly Belly flavors we got are: Juicy Pear, Red Apple, Caramel Apple, Buttered Popcorn, Kiwi, Strawberry Cheesecake, and Dr. Pepper - Our favorites!

In the beginning we were only going to get the juicy pear beans and a few other green ones to match our colors - but then I found a huge stash of favor tins on clearance at Wal-Mart for super cheap and so we got all our fave flavors seeing as the colors are hidden inside the tins. Our favor tins look like this PICTURE

edited to add: I have a picture of Castaway Cay on my laptop desktop!

 

[Sue88]

The tins are very cute Kelly! You are doing such a good job!!

 

[Lindy Loo]

Kelly the tins are fantastic, have you put your "magic" over them???? you are very very creative.

Now please dont laugh when we decorate your stateroom door, rememeber we arent all as talented as you !

Jules, we saw Robbie in Cardiff 3 years ago, he is fantastic ( as you already know ) I heard on the news about the traffic, so your idea is spot on! MK is great for shopping too

MJ, glad Allie has some pirate stuff. That s night is going to be sooo much fun. Do we tell our waiters we need to be feed EXTRA quick that night ? Cos Ive read alot about late sitting people missing the show, or getting there and being stuck at the back. Wayne was woundering if we should skip the resturant that night and do Room Service, but I thought you guys might think we were being rude ( plus I have pirate decs for the table ) I know you all want to party, so we should be able to wiz the waiters along ???? Im happy to skip pudding .... cos of the desert buffet at the party

Wonder where everyone else is ????

Just our table keeping us up there at the moment. Anyone know how full the cruise is ????

Off to bed now, "speak" Sunday, have a fun weekend.......... x

Hello all, this is Mike's DW (Jenn) and DD4 (Kylie). Sorry it's been so long since we've posted. Hope all are doing well. We're just catching up. Three and a half weeks to go, let the countdown begin
Lindy Loo we just looked at Eloise's pictures. What a cutie. Kylie is so excited to meet her she said "HI ELOISE" when we showed her the pictures.
This is from Kylie to Eloise. Where is everyone getting their pirate outfits? Are there any new updates on meeting spots? We received our cruise tickets in the mail today HOORAY!!!!!

 

[SparKeLLy]

Hello Jenn and Family!! Lucky ducks! I hope we get our cruise tickets today...might have to make a trip to the post office!!!

I got part of my pirate costume at wal-mart (skirt) and I have 2 different shirts, one is for Mickeys Halloween Party and the other is for the cruise, both from different juniors' type apparel stores. And we're shopping for some extra piratey accessories today at the Party City. Part of Jacob's costume is from the DisneyShopping website and part from a regular clothing store - we like to mix and match!

(MJ Posting here from Alie's log on)

Hi Jenn, Wow I can't beleive you got your doc's already.

I did not expect doc's for another week. Now I am going to be running to the mailbox every ten minutes

I got my pirate skirt from Walmart too. I am not sure what I am wearing with it but I did just finish hemming up a little tropical jacket that I am wearing on Parrot Cay night.

Hope everyone is having a fun weekend

MJ

Sorry to have been absent...in the midst of exams and have had no "free" time. I can't believe we have only 3 1/2 weeks left! I'm excited, but at the same time, there is still so much to do! Eeek! Anyways, I have one more exam on Tuesday and then a breather before the next round of exams hits right before we leave. ugh. I'll probably check in again after Tuesday. Until then...Amy

 

[Mdavison]

It's Jenn again, Has everyone decided on a meeting spot? and when? Is everyone on first or second dinner seating?
Kelly, I can't believe your wedding is so soon, you must be getting nervous. Are you doing the Land & Sea trip or just the cruise?
We'll be shopping soon for our pirate apparel, we already got our door decorations. We will have a princess Ariel and Aurora door since those are Nicole and Kylie's two favorite princesses. everyone!

 

[saratogagirl]

Hi Everyone, we are home and had a great time, there were six of us so we had lots of fun and lots of alcohol Robbie was as brilliant as always, after the show we had to walk to the train station which was a good 45 minute walk in the crowds (good practice for Disney) and then a long wait for a taxi, so we got back to the hotel at about 2.00am, we got home yesterday but were so tired we just flopped with a chinese takeaway, so sorry I didn't catch up yesterday ....

Linda I hope you have had a great time in London, we were at the Milenium Stadium too - its a small world after all ....

Hi Jenn I think that Jane has suggested that we meet at 3.00pm at the Mickey Pool, unless things have changed since then, you are so lucky to have received your docs, goodness knows when we will get ours being in the UK ...

Nice to hear from you Amy, good luck with the exams ....

Kelly are you all shopped out, I hope you had a good time with your Mom and Dad Sue, Jane what have you been up to - have you had a good weekend ?
