On the Western Fantasy 10/11/14

[Octoberbride03]

that would be great.... I know we are pushing our budget just going on this cruise....

I may take you up on the help though depending on the split needs. I may also just nag TIGGER/POOH4 He's running his exchange this week. So he'll let me know he split it. Of course I'm always naggin him I haven't had a text from him since he reached end of the channel and I feel like an arm is missing

As for pushing budget. Ours is completely busted Hence the new Jewelry business. Without it we don't have a prayer of making this cruise.

Usually we take vacations a year... One in February and one in august... We took our cruise this February, and Jenn has really wanted to cruise on the Fantasy, I always felt it was out of reach. But her Sweet 16 is October 2014, so I thought it was just meant to be! We opened a store last July and hoping it takes off. So for now, there is no August vacation, and next February is cancelled... I am slowly paying off the cruise... very grateful for the Disney card.. charge part.. pay it off in 6 months and charge again! I have faith, this will work!

Feel free to ask me, I have no problems helping...

Booked this cruise about three weeks ago and so excited!

Introduction: Where to begin? I'm a single mom of three young adult sons. This will be my third Disney cruise and their second. Yeah, they were all pretty wrecked that I went on a Disney cruise without them last year. Our first Disney cruise together as a family was in '07. That was a wonderful trip combined with 11 days at WDW and 7 night cruise on the Magic in celebration of my son's high school graduation. We created some wonderful memories during that vacation and I knew we'd take another cruise at some point.

Fast forward to last year June. It was a last minute trip booked a mere 6 weeks from departure. My boss had booked a 5 night double dip on the Dream using DVC points and couldn't go so he transferred the reservation to me and I invited my sister on a girls only trip. This was her first ever cruise and we had an absolute blast together! We did rebook onboard for this summer but ended up having to cancel. Long story but I hated that I lost the OBC and 10% discount. My sister and her hubby will be bringing my 3 year old nephew and 5 year old niece along. They're Disney kids through and through so I can't wait to see their faces once we're able to tell them we're going. It'll be hard for auntie to keep it a secret for over a year. I've already started buying outfits for my niece!

The way the plans came together for our upcoming cruise is that a few months ago my SIL who lives out of state had the grand idea of coordinating a family vacation in celebration of her 15 year anniversary in October 2014. Also celebrating her anniversary that month is my sister as they both married a week apart. Initially my SIL wanted to keep cost down so had wanted to book with RCCL. Deep down though I guess she really wanted to take a Disney cruise so changed her mind and we booked the Fantasy instead! This will be my SIL's 4th Disney cruise. Hmm, need to find a way to catch up to her! Traveling with her will be her hubby of course and my 11 year old niece. Can't wait!

signed up and thankyou!

 

[Octoberbride03]

Well the list is moving right along.

And I see we have a smart aleck in our midst

I was born a smart aleck myself so I'm all for fun and games. However, I suggest the next time you bust on Kyle and not MY JR. At the end of the race tomorrow, or when I get off of work whichever comes last, I hope I see some changes on the list.

I much prefer to know who I'm playing with. Keeps the game even

WEEKS TO THE FANTASY!!!!!!

 

[Octoberbride03]

So i think I lost count somewhere along the way judging from the last post I used an online counter the first time I posted and again today because I missed some weeks. But according to today's counter the count is correct. Before we know 2-13 will have flown by

BTW the roll call list goes from whoever has used the link to sign up. If you haven't filled out the Google Form and not listed in the first post, that is why.
