We're so glad to be aboard! Allie is looking for teen friends, as none of hers have ended up going this time!

We're looking forward to #8 cruise and are flying by the seat of our pants as we have 'been there - done that'!

Thanks!
Jamie

Hey Guys,

Earlier I had posted we would be on this sailing, then we changed. Well, guess what.....we are back and finalized. We are traveling with 4 other families. This will be our 3rd cruise and I can't wait. It is myself, DH, DD(10), and DS (8). I send my sympathies to Trina, I lost my father 6 months ago today to cancer. He would have turned 70 on this cruise. Have a wonderful evening.....I will PM about the FE and Secret Santa.

Allie will be excited, thanks! I'll tell her to try to get in touch before the cruise! We have several friends with 9/10 year old girls, so that's great!

Thanks!

Hi friends~
I posted a question on the main board and Tess kindly directed me in this direction so I wanted to say hello.

My family of six (plus 15 y/o DD's BFF) will be sailing with all of you fine folks this fall. 75 days from now but who's counting?

A little about us:
Me: 31. I happen to have been a part of the very first Disney World Moms Panel so you can read my bio there if you're so inclined. I'm Darcie M. from Arizona.
DH: Jeff. 30. He's a hakuna matata type of guy.
DD: 15, Our own personal Cinderella
DD's BFF: 14: Might as well be a part of the family she spends so much time with us
DD: 11, We liken her to Ariel because she always wants what she can't have
DD: 9, Spunky and energetic. A mix between Stitch and Tigger...She also happens to have Down syndrome
DS: 3 the most squeezable, lovable little man ever. Period. Oh. And he's quite rotund. My own personal Pooh bear.

That's us in a nutshell.

We had booked gty rooms and we recently received our stateroom assignments. So pleased to have been upgraded to deck 7, category 10 connecting rooms. Disney just confirmed what I already knew - they rock! Hopefully nothing will change between now and then...

I hope to pop in often between now and September 24th when we leave for our pre-cruise 9 night WDW stay. I'd love to get to know some of our cruise mates! Glad to meet all of you!

 

[ForTheLoveOfDCL]

OK 1 hour left to join the FE/SM exchange....Please PM me if you are wanting to join by this evening!!! Thanks

 

[HeatherD]

On the last page, we've had another 9 y.o. AND 10 y.o. girl join the group! I'm telling you, they're going to need a secret handshake, so they can identify each other in the Lab. Awww, who am I kidding? There won't be any other kids in the Lab but them!

Darcie,

We live in Phoenix--Ahwatukee area. Where do you live? Welcome to the boards. Sounds like it should be a fun cruise.

I am starting to get worried that this will replace Twice Charmed, which is the one show I missed last year on the 5 Night Special Cruise as I took too long to get ready for formal night. I would not be too upset if they were replacing Golden Mickeys, but I doubt this as they have the show on the Wonder as well.

Well, after working 8 days in the row, I finally have two days off. I intend to do as little as I can get away with today. I am about to have some lunch and then I will settle down watching High School Musical 2 and working on my Fish Extender gifts.

Tomorrow I have to go into town to get some new shoes for work and then I will hopefully meet up with DH to go and see the Harry Potter movie in IMAX 3D.

but traveling with us we have 42 total families at this time with about 84 adults, 34 total girls(with 11 of them in the 9/10 yr old caty) and 22 boys.!

 

[dolphingirl47]

Michelle,
I thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your hard work organizing the Fish Extenders and Secret Mickeys. You have done a wonderful job with this.

I just had a quick count and fortunately I have enough of everything for the Fish Extender exchange.

Corinna

 

[ForTheLoveOfDCL]

Thanks Corinna---I try!

Ok I still need some SM forms back.......ASAP I need Disneyfan75 and I need Bean418 forms. I have assigned people their SM and have sent a few out but I am waiting on these other 2 to finish sending them.....Please respond to my request by this weekend or I am gonna have to reassign without ya. I don't want to make people wait to get going on their SM's and this is holting the process....Thank you!

 

[MinFan55]

Michelle - Like Corinna said, "Thank you so much for all your work with the FE gift exchange". I couldn't have kept it all s traight. You've done a great job!

67 Adults! Wow! I think I'll be mailing a box to the ship, I don't think I can bring the FE gifts with me...you'll understand why when you see it.

Welcome to all our new cruisers If you have joined in the last couple weeks, are participating in FE and I haven't PM'd you, I need the favorite character of all the children in your group. You can either post or PM me the info as soon as you get a chance.

I logged in Sunday night at 9:00 PM and got a reservation for Palo Tuesday night!! I also booked the Dolphin Swim in Cozumel for Amaya and I and the Pirate Encounter in Grand Cayman for all of us. I get more excited everytime I can check something off my list...it's getting so close

Trina - I'm so sorry to hear about your father. My thoughts and prayers are with your family. I lost my dad 2 years ago on 4th of July and my mom 8 years ago. My dad was also 92. I am so thankful for all the wonderful memories and photos.

I hope everyone is enjoying their week...see you all soon.

Terri
