October 19th Cruisers again and again...

[Mickey02'sMom]

Julie, sorry I missed you. I don't know what you look like so I may have seen you and not known it. The weather was great wasn't it?

I felt yucky all day and still have a very heavy feeling in my head...took another sinsus pill.

Barb and Bob got in late as their plane was delayed.....I think the only ones that had a normal flight home was Missy and Jaymee

I am on my way to bed.....goodnight everyone.

Krista caught my drunken mistake. After a few beers, I can't count!

86 bottles of beer on the wall, 86 bottles of beer. Take one down and pass it around, 85 bottles of beer on the wall.

Welcome home, Julie. Sorry to hear you guys have a bug but I am glad to hear you had a great time and great weather. I'll talk to Paul about the 10/14/06 cruise. We'll see.

I have parent-teacher conference today. The report card was ok so this shouldn't be all that bad.

Nothing else new here so I guess I'll continue with...

84 bottles of beer on the wall, 84 bottles of beer. Take one down and pass it around, 83 bottles of beer on the wall.

A long day at work today, I thought I would have a few extra tonight! Hockey practice so just getting home.

Where's Denine and Jerry?? Did they stay on the Magic?

Julie, hope everyone is feeling better.

Sally, hope you are feeling better too.

Barb and Patti, glad you all have made it home. Hope you find time to post soon. We miss you.

Krista, come out, come out, wherever you are. I know you're there. You cmae back and I want you to stay here with us!

Gotta log off so I can catch the last half of Survivor. Later!

[Denine]

We are home. It was an exhausting 2 day drive. I am still getting over being sick, 2 weeks is long enough. Kaleigh caught it on Monday and has been miserable, this after teething most of the cruise and Jerry came down with it yesterday.

We still had a great time though.

Sue: We looked for you on the side of the road, but you weren't there.

Sally: You should have stopped me to talk!

Kaleigh got her 1st hircut at the Mainstreet barber shop. She got mickey ears that say "first haircut" and a certificate with her name on it and they kept her hair for me. She was soo good.

For the 1st time in a long time, I am actually happy to be home.

I hope the current cruisers have had a good time and will enjoy Castaway tomorrow.

I will post more tomorrow.

 

[Schrolls]

79 bottles of beer on the wall.

Denine, sorry to hear you guys are or have been under the weather too. Glad you are home. I forgot what time to be on the side of the road so I missed my ride! I thought of you guys often. Kaleigh's first haircut at Disney! That is so special!

Until the second round cruisers get home and our whole family is safe and sound, I guess I will continue with...

79 bottles of beer on the wall, 79 bottles of beer. Take one down and pass it around, 78 bottles of beer on the wall.

[Mickey02'sMom]

Good morning.....Susan by the time all the family is home again you are going to feel really, really good!!!! Just how many bottles of beer can you do by yourself....lol

I am having so much fun doing my Disney Album because it is so fresh in my mind that it is easy to journal and it brings back so many fun times.....my family is so special and I loved being able to spend time with each and everyone of them.....what great kids their dad raised.....I like to think I had something to do with it...lol

The swelling in my ankle had gone down yesterday and I went to Walmart and out to eat with Dick and last night it was up again....guess I need to give it more time. Sure wish I knew what I did to it.....don't remember doing anything but walking and walking on it when it was swollen to start with. Otherwise I am feeling much better.....

Denine, believe it or not I am rather shy until I get to know you and then I am sure they would tell you I talk a lot.....now Dick on the other hand doesn't know a stranger....he was even talking to a kid about l0 on the bus just to be talking to someone....lol.

I got my laundry finished yesterday.....I didn't take a lot of clothes with me and I did laundry 3 times but I still did everything when I got home....some were dirty and the rest was very wrinkled.

Need to get my day started so I can get bacik to scrapbooking...have a great day

 

[Schrolls]

77 bottles of beer on the wall.

Sally, you really know how to make me laugh. Unfortunately, I don't feel really, really good! I may have to start with bottles of cough syrup on the shelf. Yeah, that will work...

76 bottles of cough syrup on the shelf, 76 bottles of cough syrup. Take one down and pass it around...

doesn't quite work with cough syrup (maybe one bottle of cough syrup mixed in with all the beer)

Leaving ealry in the morning for Raleigh. Hockey again this weekend. We'll have the laptop so hopefully I can post from there. Hope everyone has a great weekend!

...75 bottles of beer on the wall.

[Denine]

I was planning on posting yesterday, but my day didn't go at all as planned.

Jerry went in to work late because he wasn't feeling well. Kaleigh started out good, but by the time Jerry got home (early), she was a complete mess. She was screaming and could not be comfprted. We ended up in the ER to find out she has double ear infections. I did manage to get the laundry done, but I didn't get it put away till last night. We also had to give Kaleigh a bath, another screaming fit. They gave her atb's and numbing ear drops.

Unfortuantely for Jerry I went to work today. He had to try to give Kaleigh her pink stuff and ear drops. I hope it goes better tonight. She has benn horrible about taking medicine lately. Work was busy, but still a break from screaming, even though we had to 911 someone out this morning. It is so nice having 2 nurses again.

We cancelled our evening out for tonight. The weather is gorgeous, 76, sunny, but very windy! It is only supposed to be in the 50's tomorrow. I don't think Kaleigh will go trick or treating.

I hope the 10/23 cruisers had a great cruise and that it didn't go as fast as this week did for us.

Julie: Come get your alcohol. Believe it or not, we didn't consume it on the way home.

I hope tomorrow is a better day!

What a wonderful, terrific, glorious time we had!!! Where do I start!

It was great seeing Julie & crew and Denine and crew in the parking lot! I got to hold Brooke...what a sweetie! And the Big Guy is getting bigger and bigger! And Makenzie is a little lady. Julie looks terrific! And that Kaleigh! What a charmer!! Of course Denine is right...everything is "NO!" Too cute!

We cpi;dn't have asked for better cruise mates! We were one big happy family...Heidi is an absolute doll...I kept telling her I wished my son had met her before he married. Faith was the hostess with the mostest! Her family is great! The Walt Disney Suite is incredible! 2 1/2 baths! Wait till you all see the picture of all we women in the jacuzzi tub!

We had pizza and chocolate souffle from Palo's one night in the suite, breakfast another morning and our server Micho (what a doll!!) surprise us all by showing up with a cake...he even seranaded us on the piano.
We said goodbye to Castaway Cay from the suites veranda...all 12 of us fit out there along the rail with room to spare. Of course tears all around since we didn't want to say goodbye.

Darren was doing the family tatent night singing Beauty School Drop-Out from Grease...so we moved right in has the Beautettes...his back up. We borrowed capes from the Spa, and took our hairdryers and curling irons and did a little Temtations like dance in the background...chimming in with the little one line singing (I really shouldn't call it singing). Darren sounded terrific as usual...he missed his calling!

Costa Maya-Heidi and I went haorseback riding with Faith, Christie and Eugene...in tow...what a hoot!! Then the Dudetes, Sandy and Ted met up with us at the beach for swimming.

Cozumel-the dudettes went shopping (We were very good to ourselves!) while Sandy and Ted and Heidi went to a beach.

Castaway-we all stayed together on the asult beach...I was first to the tram stop...of course no tram for a good 10 minutes. But I got my hammock! Sandy and I saw the resident Stingray (how cool!) While Ted and Heidi were way out yonder snorkeling (and didn't see a thing! Tee Hee!)

Enough for now...I should leave some for the others.

Good job keeping the thread going Susan and Krista...we had Sue, Paul and Turner on our door courtesy of Sandy...and they did join us for dinner.

I want to be back on the ship!!!!!!!!!

 

[wildernessgirl]

Can't wait to hear from the rest of you!!


Later!

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Hi guys, we are back and now are doing the nasty deed of laundry and putting everything away. I haven't read anything yet just wanted to post a quick hello. Missed you guys!

 

[DudetteTwo]

Bonnie already told you all the cruise details but just wanted to tell you both Joyce & I made it home safe & sound. I only did two loads of laundry so far (wet bathing suits & underwear) & must have another four or five loads but I had to check on my Mom & Aunt. Darren promises to post! We told Faith that she is family too!

JULIE: Brooke is adorable. Mackenzie & Gary have gotten so big! We just didn't have time to talk to anyone about the cruise in 2006 but we are all cruising in 2005 so we can talk to them on that cruise.

DENINE: Kaleigh is just beautiful.

It was SOOOO great seeing you all before the cruise. We all were so excited after seeing everyone.

My computer was misbehaving yesterday. It would not let me on so I had to do some "cleaning". Then I go to get on the boards & they say I am "unregistered" How quickly they forget!

Watching the EAGLES while I am typing & have to leave to go over my Mom's at 3:00 PM. GOOOOOOOOO EAGLES:thewave:. Hope everybody has a great week. I don't go back to work until Wednesday but have to take my Mom to the Orthopedic Dr. tomorrow & hopefully the cast will come off. Toodles JEANNE

 

[Kristaia]

Just a note to say welcome back and have a great spook-night.

It is raining here, yuck. Clare is going to be a monarch butterfly fairy - who knows...

I will post pics soon, of Halloween and St. Thomas. Can't wait to see everyone elses. Glad to be back on the boards.

Krista

Hi, everyone and weolcome back to the second round cruisers!

I couldn't post from Raleigh because I left my password at home. We were busy anyway. The boys won 3 games and lost one. The weather was sunny and 80 yesterday and today. We ended up ordering pizzas with most of teh families and sitting around the courtyard at the hotel last night since it was so nice.

We just got home and wanted to post a real quick note. I have to take Turner to a friends to do the Halloween thingy!

Love you all. So glad I can stop drinking now!!

Later!

 

[jiminyC_fan]

I AM GOING TO BE A GRANDMA !!!!!

 

[disneydudette1]

CONGRATULATIONS SANDY!!!! WOW!

I just found out from Pam that my DIL told her that if I send anyting to Olivia it will be sent back..."she doesn't want her to receive cards and gifts from someone whe doesn't know! I am not in a very good mood now.

 

[DudetteTwo]

SANDY & TED: Congratulations. You two are going to be the best grandparents (doesn't that sound weird?).

BONNIE: You go from a really nice "HIGH" from being on the cruise to all this BS from you DIL. Maybe I don't want a SIL or DIL.

Hope everyone had a great Sunday. It was absolutely beautiful in New Jersey. Went to my Mom's at 3:00 PM for dinner but left my halloween bags with candy on the porch with a sign "Please take one" & when I came home can you believe there was still four bags in the box! Talk about being honest! Dodger was the watch dog for trick or treaters over my Mom's but when they saw the dog they all wanted to run! My computer is STILL misbehaving I bet it's those darn cookies again!!!!!!!! Toodles JEANNE

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Susan and Krista, you did a fantastic time of keeping the thread alive. Thanks. Sally, you did a great job when you got back!! And yes, you are right. Dick doesn't know a stranger. He loves to talk and is easy to talk to!

Yep, we did see the lunar eclipse and from the Walt Disney Suite. It was great!

It was fun seeing everyone at the terminal. I only wish we had more time. I doubt very seriously that we will book the cruise in 2006. I keep saying it but we really want to "branch out". It is all you guys that keep us at Disney. And of course, Disney itself. I won't say definitely but probably not.

Sorry that everyone got so sick. Hope everyone is on the road to recovery.

Krista, it is great getting on the thread and seeing you back. Keep it up!

As Bonnie said, we all had a wonderful time. We did a lot in the suite. Linking our dinner reservations was a great idea. We could report at dinner what we did. However, we pretty much ended up doing the same thing. Lots and lots of pictures were taken. The CM's were great. Have some stories about the "others" on the other thread but will have to do that at a wine chat or an email.

Darren recommended a great outlet store mall just outside of downtown Disney. We went over there yesterday. They have a WDW outlet store. Had fun buying more stuff to pack.

Bonnie, give me your DIL's address. I would love to write her. I wish I could be with you right now. I looked at the time and is nine so I won't call in case you went to bed early. That woman is CRAZY!

Jeanne, way to go on that upgrade at the airport. We don't have our Halloween pics because we stopped the mail. Maybe tomorrow.

Thanks for the congrats about Stacey's news. It does sound funny......GRANDMA. It sounds so OLD! She is due June 25th.

If I forgot anything, sorry. My brain is so fried.

By the way, I got a sugar daddy sucker while trick or treating at WDW and it just took off my crown. Off to the dentist this week.

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Forgot to tell you that it is suppose to snow 3-6 inches tonight. Winter has begun!
