Oct 30 2010 7 Night Western (PART 2)

[ginajanae88]

I don't have a list at all, as I was waiting for the final list. Although there was a post a few pages back that I believe had everyone listed..

<<Here it is, Beth had posted it>>

Stichgal, Nenner, tjbaggott, eye4mickey, lsjones, schimj, pegthelawyer, royfam, cates, mvlimmex, beachbumpirates, lis0503, threeiscrazy, gramacharming, FInx, dizney-cruiser, tinkerbelltwins, adnil530, diane (threeiscarazy's sister), jkswonder, ssteele, jmedina, tinkofthebluegrass, kristieuk,morgansmom2000, ecj922, pudo, kgoldenh, ginajanae88, podsnel, princesstrisha, tara1375, pdarrah, mu43, snowite16, destin12.

So I think my informal tally is now at 36 groups (including destin12 or dstein12 whatever it is). I'll be eager to get Leslie's formal list once our deadline has passed!

As far as splitting it, IMO I don't think 36 is too many, but my last cruise had like double that and we didn't split so I may be jaded thinking 36 is a piece of cake. Of course we also only do a per/statereom gift. I can see where per/adult/child gifts can get to be a lot.

We can post a poll if some have expressed interest in splitting it. I know I personally will give to the full list whether we split or not.

What does everyone think?

We are going to give to the full list also because we already have all of ours done, except for the ones that just joined recently.

Our three families are good with the full list also (threeiscrazy, gramacharming & my Sister Diane.)

 

[tjbaggott]

I'm giving to the full list, as I have most of my done. I have a formal list written up with everyones names, kids ages and stateroom numbers (for all who have been assigned). Should I make that into a document that can them be pm'd out?

I've got some free time on my hands this evening, so I'll do a search through the old thread to make sure we've got the list correct. I'm pretty sure dstein12 backed out of the FE, but will check on that further.
I count 34 family groups Without dstein included but with my own self Included, so obviously there are some differences in individual lists. So I'll do that search through the old thread and see if I can come up with a definate accurate one. I'll post here later what I find.

 

[nenner1]

That will help a lot, thanks Judy!

 

[nenner1]

For those of you thinking MNSSHP may not be much of a value this year...can you believe 5 tickets to see Yo Gabba Gabba Live in Kissimmee is only $40 less? And those are the cheap seats!

(Wow) So I'm not sure if we will do one or the other or either now...

 

[tjbaggott]

OK, here's what I've come up with. For now, an informal list with the Dis name and the total number of people within their group:

1. Stitchgal 5
2. nenner1 5
3. tjbaggott 4
4. eyes4mickey 4
5. princesstrisha 3
6. Isjones 5
7. schimj 2
8. pegthelawyer 5
9. royfam 5
10. catesfamily 3
11. mvlimmex 7
12. beachbumpirates 4
13. lisa0503 4
14. threeiscrazy 5
15. gramacharming 2
16. dizney-cruiser 2
17. tinkerbelltwins 4
18. adnil530 4
19. Diane 4
20. sssteele 2
21. JKSWonder 4
22. Jmedina 4
23. tinkofthebluegrass 4
24. kristieUK 4
25. morgansmom2000 3
26. ECJ922 3
27. PUDO 4
28. kgoldenh 4
29. ginajanae88 3
30. podsnel 3
31. Finx 3
32. pdarrah 3
33. mu43 3
34. snowite16 4
35. trara1375 4
36. dstein12 4
37. utahdisney 5

So there we have it. If you are are participating in the FE but are not on this list, can you post here that info.
Dizney-cruiser, do you recall when or where you heard about dstein12 not participating? I can't find any other info on that other than where you had informed me a while back that she and disneymissy were no longer on the list to participate.

For anyone else who has a list, can you compare what you have with this one, and post on any differences. Other than dstein, I think this is otherwise quite accurate.

(Wow) So I'm not sure if we will do one or the other or either now...

Since we only get to WDW once a year if we are lucky and rarely outside of the summer months we really don't want to pass up on something like MNSSHP.

In 2005 we were lucky to get to the MVMCP after the Thanskgiving cruise.

Sadly, I come to find out too late (after booking our flights) that the first day of MVMCP is Nov 8th, the day we fly out.

I know it's expensive, but Trick o' Treating at WDW will be a great childhood memory for Sarah so they could charge more and we would still pay.

 

[morgansmom2000]

I'm in for the whole list. I'll be doing a single (with a number of items) gift per stateroom, along with a handmade item for each person.

If I had been able to talk DH into going down a day early, we'd be going to the HP too. He just wouldn't go for it.

We sent to the VMCP in 2008 the Friday before Thanksgiving, it was so much fun!

 

[tinkerbelltwins]

Our family wants to do the whole list too!

 

[Beachbumpirates]

We are in for the full list also! Judy - we would love a "formal list" if you do put one together. Cannot wait!

 

[figmentnnemo]

MNSSHP is a must for us; this year we're double dipping-MNSSHP before the cruise and MVMCP after!

For those of you thinking MNSSHP may not be much of a value this year...can you believe 5 tickets to see Yo Gabba Gabba Live in Kissimmee is only $40 less? And those are the cheap seats!

(Wow) So I'm not sure if we will do one or the other or either now...

 

[figmentnnemo]

Love it-the cricut is the best toy ever!!!

OK - I'm going to give it another shot . . . and let you know how I make out - there isn't a video you can get to watch, is there ? hhhhmmmm. . . maybe on YouTube . . .

 

[figmentnnemo]

Are we doing any adults-only events?

Karen! Glad to have you sailing with us!


I genuinely appreciate all of the thanks and appreciation everyone expressed the last couple of days. What a wonderful group this is, and I need to thank all of YOU for being so generous, timely, and helpful. You are the ones who make my job coordinating events easy! And I sincerely appreciate it, as keeping it easy makes it more FUN!

Speaking of, lanyards are winding down, this is the last week I will be accepting payments. I will be making the order this week!!

So if you are new to the thread (or not) and want lanyards, this is your final chance, get with me ASAP so I can get payment details out to you! Once the order is placed, no more changes can be made! Nearly 200 of us will be wearing lanyards on this cruise!!! How cool is that!?!?!

Also this is the last week of signup for the Dis Trick or Treat. Ellen and I have been finalizing plans and it looks like this is going to be a great time!!! We have devised a scavenger hunt that will hopefully be just a bit challenging, and the kids will follow the clues to the candy treasure awaiting them!

If you haven't signed up yet, please post or send me a PM and I will add your children (under 18) to the list.

I can't wait to meet you all onboard!

Jen

 

[figmentnnemo]

How did you make the cruise logo with the Mickey??? I want one!!!

OK, my first thought was "why didn't I sign up for that group?", They look awesome!

 

[mvlimmex]

OK, here's what I've come up with. For now, an informal list with the Dis name and the total number of people within their group:

1. Stitchgal 5

6. Isjones 5
7. schimj 2

12. beachbumpirates 4
13. lisa0503 4
14. threeiscrazy 5
15. gramacharming 2
16. dizney-cruiser 2
17. tinkerbelltwins 4
18. adnil530 4
19. Diane 4

30. podsnel 3
31. Finx 3
32. pdarrah 3
33. mu43 3
34 snowite16 4

So there we have it. If you are are participating in the FE but are not on this list, can you post here that info.
Dizney-cruiser, do you recall when or where you heard about dstein12 not participating? I can't find any other info on that other than where you had informed me a while back that she and disneymissy were no longer on the list to participate.

For anyone else who has a list, can you compare what you have with this one, and post on any differences. Other than dstein, I think this is otherwise quite accurate.

List looks great. It is exactly what I have except that I also have trara1375 (2 adults and 2 children for the FE too) Does anyone else have them down on the list too?

We would like to do a "full list" for the FE too and also would love an updated FE list if you get a chance to put one together. Thanks so much for doing this for us.

I've been absent from the boards for a few days. We just got back from camping at Lake George. So much fun, but I am completely wiped out now and in need of a vacation from my vacation!

I fully intend to give to the entire FE list. I already put together 36 stateroom gifts, with addtional gifts for singles, teens and kids.

Nenner, I can no longer remember if I signed my kids up for the TOT, so please add my two kids if we are not already on the list. We have so many events with this cruise, I'm starting to forget what I said we could do!

I just wanted to echo what everyone else has already said and just let all of you know how very much we appreciate everything everyone is doing to make this cruise extra special. When I joined this meet group, I could never have anticipated how friendly and involved everyone would be. All of you who are working on all the "extras" are simply wonderful and I can't wait to meet each of you in person.

 

[mvlimmex]

Just wanted to thank all the people who work so hard to make this meet board work so well. Janice (disney-cruizer), you are great keeping everything organized. Jen (nenner1), the lanyards must be a real pain to do for such a large group but you always seem so cheerful and patient with us. Leslie, we appreciate all you do for the FE exchange. Judy (tjbaggott), wow, your design talent is over the top with the magnets and the photo album. Jeff (pudo), you are a wealth of information and somehow you explain things so simply to those of us who are techno-challenged. Many thanks to those who are helping to arrange the trick or treating, the meet, the kids thread, and sundry other things. And we benefit also from having one of the moderators of the whole board, Mary Jane (mmouse37), help steer us in the right direction when need be. There are countless more people to thank but I'll stop here. Though we are a large group I am amazed at the small town feel of this board. Can't wait to meet all of you. I had no idea when I joined the Disboard site that I would have so much fun and learn so much stuff about all things Disney.

Beth

I too want to THANK EVERYONE who has helped make this Dis board thread a positive one for all of us.

With all the info we have shared together, plus all the activities/special lanyards that we have planned have really helped make this cruise very special and exciting!!!! I can't wait to sail with all of you and to meet you all.

Vicki

 

[figmentnnemo]

We're less than 60 days away from the cruise! I didn't realize how close we were!

 

[TifffanyD]

Hey Trisha!!

I just wanted to update you - I went with your idea - but found that I have post #4 so I put a link (actually two) in our post #1 and fit in our Roll Call in post #4 - now I just need to get our FE's back up there!

Jen/Judy,

If one of you have the final FE list, I would like to get it from one of you so I can get started on my maps.

Have we had a final decision on if we are doing one big group, or two smaller groups? Do we want to post a poll?


Thanks!

schimj & I are in for the full list!
