Hello and welcome home! I's so glad you are dressing up. I asked once before if anyone was going to. Only one person responded and she said she wasn't sure if her family was or not. I am so much more pleased with this costume than I was with mine from the last cruise.

Yea i was the only one that dressed up out of Mike and Chris when we went on our first cruise a year ago...but when hubby saw that many people on the cruise was dressed up, he told me that he wished that he had dressed up as well and that the next time we cruised that he would dress up...so I held him to it this time And Chris doesnt care about dressing up too much but once he saw my pirate outfit and Mikes, he wanted one for himself

Evening everybody. Hope it was a good friday. I was basically lazy today and didn't do much of anything

Hey Shauna

Good Evening All!

We are back from football, Connor is in the shower and Colton started making speghetti! He is learning to cook, sort of out of necessity. I am sure things will get better on Tuesday when school starts! I'll work until 230, have dinner at 4, the bus gets here at 4, so they will eat right away. Hopefully, Connor will be able to eat and get his homework done by 5, since we will have to be out the door by about 530 to make practice by 6. Then it gets over at 8, rush home to shower, snack and finish homework. In the ideal world, I would like him to be in bed by 9, but I don't see that happening!!!!!!

Bet it'll be nice to get the boys back into a real routine again. At least until the cruise

We slept in till 1pm Well we are still on Vegas time We didnt go to bed till about 2am this time and so of course I was extra tired. I think that I could have easily slept all day, but it doesnt help that its been raining all day either so that makes me extra tired I hope our roof holds up because its already leaking in one spot (have that dang bucket out all of the time and in the way) and another spot in our bedroom has a huge crack that I am sure is either going to start leaking soon or fall in The roofers came out to look at it while we were gone to Vegas (dad was here) but who knows when they will be able to fix it, especially now during the rainey season

Michelle.....you sure have a crazy schedule. When I want to complain, I think about how busy you are.

Shauna.....I'm so glad you guys are dressing up. We had so much fun with it the last time. I think, what the heck, it's Disney. I don't have many excuses to act like a kid any more.

Maureen....Glad you had a better day. One good thing about Target....I order Merkie a swimsuit off the Target website. It was on sale for $13.00. I ordered it last night and got an e-mail today saying that it had been shipped. That was fast.

Oh that was fast. Sometimes Target shipping is dirt slow. I actually avoid the website and stick with my brick and mortar store. FYI though if you see a sale on the website don't go to the store looking for a price match it won't happen.

This is the first time I have ordered from Target. I actually did a search for discounted swimsuits. This was one of the sites that came up. I actually had never seen most of the suits in our local Target before. If it fits, it's a great deal

that's the truth! LOL I just have to get through October. Maybe a little longer if we make the playoffs/super bowl. But then it's Thanksgiving break, Christmas break, a trip to Hilton Head Island and THEN there will be NOTHING on our schedule the first of the year. I won't know what to do with myself! No Indian's games to watch, no football practice to sit at.

we are not dressing up for Pirate night, but we'll have our pirate polo shirts on!

 

[WDWCrazzyCunninghams]

Welcome Home Kristin!!!!! Can't wait to see photos from the city!! Sorry I didn't call tonight. I ended up making banners for the boys to run through at the start of the game!

I'm trying not to think about Thanksgiving and Christmas
I wanna skip straight form the cruise to my birthday next year.

Are you making the shirts? I actually thought about doing making us some instead of dressing up, Merkie really wanted to. She is stuck between trying to grow up and wanting to stay a kid. This gives us both an opportunity to act silly without anyone thinking we are crazy.

Me to! Merkie's birthday is in Nov. to. By now, I've usually already started shopping because my family is so big. I haven't bought the first thing. Merkie thought it would be nice to buy all my neices' and nephews' gifts from St. Maarten or St. Thomas. I told her that we would see what we can find.

I bought a pink Pirate Princess Shirt at the Big Dogs outlet this summer.
I bought tshirts to iron on the black Mickey Head with pirate Mickey.
I bought polo shirts at Old Navy that has a skull and cross bones pattern stitched into the fabric.

the polos we will wear to dinner. not sure what we'll wear during the day. I guess the T's. I can wear the princess T any day!
