[CRUIZEN MAMMA]

Not classical music in general, though I have always liked Mozart's music in particular. It's very fiery and passionate. In most classical, I can't really feel the emotion of the composer going into his music, but with his you can.

In all reality, though, it comes from when I was trying to think of a name for one of our dogs. I thought Mozart would be a really cool thing to name a dog. Then, when I needed a screenname, it sounded like a cool thing to use for that too.

You named yourself after the dog? who are you Indiana Jones ? he did that too.

We are starting to receive our cruise documents already.

My mom, sister-in-law and niece all got theirs yesterday. How do I know? Well we had them delivered here of course. I wasn't taking any chances having someone give away the secret so close to leaving.

I'm still waiting to hear from DFTW to see about my "guests" for the reception. Our coordinator should be in the office this morning so we'll see.

16 days and coutning...

Mom arrives in 4, dad in 5.

Let the countdown commence.

Joel, Seems like you took every precaution to ensure this surpirse goes perfectly- How are you keeping the kids quiet? Can't wait to hear more-are you going to email us from the ship?

I want to name my cat after my grandmother because I can't name a kid after her... she always said... "Never name a baby... ETHEL"

He's feeding them Dom and M&M's....

It's been days since anyone has been in here and it's getting so close?

 

[OceanLvr]

Well, the saga continues...

There is so much going on here, I think I've lost my mind. Does anyone want to buy a house? We have decided to sell our existing home and build a new one. What the hell am I thinking? I have so many other things on my plate right now.

Anyway, I heard on our trip board that the documents are arriving...
We are so close...I can't wait, My wife has started to ask what I am wearing for dinner on certain nights so she can "coordinate." That means that she is getting nervous about things, although she won't say it. And that's fine too. I know she's stressed and I want her to have a great time and I know she will.

hang in there folks, there isn't much more until we get onboard...And oh isn't that going to be great.

 

[Tink rules]

Hey Joel....

My mom starts to clean in strange places when we know we have company coming over... usually it's the walk in closet on Xmas eve...

I'm going to start the Pina coladas early if we make it on our cruise in Oct...

Good luck with everything!!!

We're thinking of you!!!

 

[Donnica]

I have some friends on the Disney Magic as I write. They got married two years ago on the Magic and I was with them. This year it's for their second anniversary tomorrow and I'm.... not.... with... them....

Wow, and I thought I was the only crazy one around. We purchased an old farm house in Jan. We are STILL in the middle of renovations, can't move in until we put the floors back in the hall bathroom and guest bedroom. I am currently unemployed, had jaw surgery 6 weeks ago, which put us behind in the renovations. I am trying to support two houses on one income. I am taking care of my elderly parents and their finances. I am still planning our Oct. 2008 "18th honeymoon" cruise ... and being we had a slow holiday weekend, my DH buys me a horse for an early anniversary gift!
And my sister had the nerve say to me "I do hope the house will be ready by the holidays!" (You should have heard them when DH and I decided to spend Christmas 2004 at Disney... by OURSELVES)

 

[Tink rules]

Hey... other than that... no worries!!!

Hakuna Matata... remember????

Have a frozen drink... even if you're not on a cruise...

Hey I do that too! That way I have a place to throw the rest of the junk 10 minutes before the guests arrive!

Can't wait to hear the rest of the report! Everyone will be so excited for you.

 

[OceanLvr]

Yes, Yes!!! They have arrived...They were just sitting at the doorstep, like a little kid that forgot his key, unable to get into the house and patiently waiting for someone to arrive and let them in. so what was the first thing I did????

Well OPEN THEM, you silly...There they are all those pretty little luggage tags, all the customs forms...YEAH!!!!

Ok, like we're telling the kids, only 12 more sleeps till Mickey's Ship!!!

So what was the first thing I did this morning? FILLED OUT THE FORMS you silly!

Now onto the wedding...I got an e-mail from Cathy yesterday, we probably won't know about any characters until sometime next week...

Which is really a bummer, because I want to make sure all the plans are in place. My DW still has no idea that there may be extra friends at the reception...Anyway, just sitting here, watching the tropics and counting the days

Are we there yet??

Hey Joel!!!

I'm doing a happy dance for you all day!!!

 

[chepic]

Joel....happy thoughts and blessings your way. I had to peep in because I received our vow renewal packet today from Cathy and I thought of you. I am not going with the M&M's or the Dom P champagne, however, I did pick the chocolate cake with strawberry mousse.

[LindaBabe]

oh my gosh. I'm a wreck with anticipation!

 

[frdeb1999]

Took me nearly 2 days to read all of this! Can't wait to hear how things went!! Sounds like it will be wonderful though! We renewed our vows in Aug and it was wonderful. Just us and our 3 daughters.

So the countdown begins...The "Matriarch" has boarded her plane and is headed this way...

I am happy to report that the house is white glove ready. Although I'm NOT!!!

Plans are running "smoothly" and I say that tongue and cheek. We have combed the house many times trying to find any identifiers that we are married. Nothing that I can see, although I'm sure I missed something.

So, here's the game plan...My moter arrives today, my father and his wife tomorrow...and then my best friend Lucy on Saturday... We have hidden the rings, passports and any related documents in the safe...Keep your fingers crossed that all goes well for the next 5 days. I'll try to keep you posted while my mother is here...It will be tough, but I'll try.
