Then possibly we could introduce ourselves and go from there. Where would everyone like to meet at Castway? Deck 10? Perhaps, this is the day we should wear our shirts so we can find each other......suggestions, ideas, agreed?? Just trying to keep us organized...welcome to our newest member...we're now up to 35 FEs.....macavity.....WHAT WERE YOU DOING ALL DAY........:rot fl:.....joann.....let's play "Knock Knock", neighbor!.....just kidding.....I know, that's not funny, you have small children (I just couldn't resist)........WHERE IS JENNY??

Also, may I say the BVI is the MOST beautiful place I've been, it is less developed but so, so beautiful. Both the Baths and the Jost Van **** places are so wonderful, you can't miss. I'm actually in Miami this w/e visiting my DD22 who just moved there. When I get back next week, we'll take one more look at the private charters in BVI and see if people really want to go and how much......

Think the grab bag idea is a great one! Fun to put together and fun to get!

Deck 10 at sail-away sounds good, too. We may or may not be wearing the 'official' shirt, but if not, we'll at least do the lime green bracelet.

C'mon July 18th! Hurry up and get here already!!!

Shirley - soccer and dance is hard. Actually, she is quitting her performance group next year. She has realized she really cannot do it all. SHe'll still take ballet and technique classes because she really does love it. I have actually never seen Copellia - so I am excited.

I always tell hubby I am going to work for WDW one day, but I do not have your tech talents, so I will probably be a waitress!

I believe that the ebay directions for the FE will likely be the ones used, but I have mastered those already. In my head where I have much more time than in my real life, I am going to pretend to make it. IN actuality, that means I will get the directions, buy all the materials, and order it anyway a week before we sail.

Me too! I have plenty of time in my head. And if it wasn't for deadlines, I wouldn't get anything done. I noticed I do get a lot done when my computer is down. Hmmmmmm.............

[disnutz]

There could definately be a correlation between the two!

How many days do we have left? about 40, I think. Well, at least one of those weeks the kids will be away at camp, so I can probably do some things then.

Lets see if this picture will come through - here is what my FE looks like:

If I did that, I'd have to have each one tell you happy birthday today.... and
well, by the time I logged in, posted, logged out, logged in, posted, etc, 100 times -- your birthday would be over.

For the newcomers, we should repost the link to Cafe Press (I think that's what it's called), so they can order tshirts with the official logo if they want to! Hey Virgil, can you do that when you have a chance? I apologize in advance if it's already on page 1.

I think I once met a freind of a friend who went to that school. Was he telling me a story, or was your nickname called the "Fighting Pickles?"

Hi,

DBIL's wedding was fabulous!!!! Today they leave for their honeymoon in Jamaica.

Welcome to all those newly joining us!!!!!!

The grab bag sounds like a fun idea. We're in.

[cinderella97]

been gone all weekend. DD had 3 soccer games- playing and refereeing and dance rehearsals. sounds like we have alot of talented kids! DD did dance competion for 4 years before this yr. she also wanted to do her sports so she took her grade 1 ballet and lyrical class. of course when competition season came around she was disappointed that she couldn't so it. I told her that she can't to everything and still maintain her grades and of course grades come first.

Welcome to all the newcomers!!

My mom and I are in for the gift exchange.

40 days to go!! Can't wait.

[SC Minnie]

We are in for the gift exchange-- not sure what it will be or where to begin to look but will come up with something.

[3princessMommy]

We've packed something from Burkina for the gift exchange. (Don't worry - it won't bite! )

Taking a short break from the packing mayhem! Have gotten through the air shipment, storage shipment, playroom and kitchen packouts. DH is supervising the storeroom pack out right now. I just have someone packing pictures right now.

Hopefully we'll finish on time - I hate long pack-outs!!! But they've told us we won't be done before Friday. We'll see.

Happy Monday everyone!!!
