I DID IT!! I DID IT!!!

YAY!!! I just talked to my travel agent and she is, first thing in the morning, booking our cruise!!!! We'll be going out of Galveston on a 6 night February 9th!!! That is less than 2 months from now!! And did I mention I got a Kids Sail Free package?!?! I'm so excited!! We will give it to the boys for Christmas. Think the way I'm going to break it to them is to buy pirate costumes and stick em under the tree (for dress like a pirate night don'tcha know) so they can open them up and wonder, "what the heck is this!?!" They are 15 and 12. A little past the dress up stage, but not for a cruise!! I think I'll stick a note in the boxes saying, Go change then you'll get your next gift! Then when they come back out, BAM!!! And they will freak out!! And it will be the BEST CHRISTMAS PRESENT EVER!!!! And they will dance and sing and carry on and run amok in wild abandon!! ok yeah, so will I. Hee hee. YAY!!!!

First.... go to the very top... "Highlight" Forum (Dont click on Forum, but hover your mouse over it) then select Edit Settings. This is where you can upload your Avatar and put in a ticker which you can get by clicking this link: http://www.magicalkingdoms.com/timers/

This is the one I use... but there are others.

Hope that helps!

WHAT AN AMAZING GIFT!

I have a very fond memory of the Christmas when I was 13 there was an envelope on the tree that we opened last. After speculating while opening presents what was in it (tickets to six flags, a giftcard to our favorite restuarant, movie tickets) only my little sister, who know is a CM at WDW, was right....it read WE'RE GOING TO DISNEY WORLD.

Christmas morning + Disney = AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!
