Disney Cruise!

Life seems like a crazy jumble this morning. Today, I turn 30 years old. Today, uncertainty is running through the Gulf Coast regarding Tropical Storm Isaac. Today, I have several friends (including myself) who are trying to figure out what to do regarding upcoming vacations. I don’t like uncertainty. Ugh.

So instead, I’m going to keep my mind off of it and I’m going to think of a wonderful thought….any merry little thought? Yeah…I’ve been listening to Disney music! Hah!

My happy thought for the day? Our upcoming Disney Cruise!! I feel as if I’ve been counting down to this cruise for EVER! We are travelling with my husband’s parents to New York where we’ll board the Disney Magic for Canada!

I have a countdown on my phone that I look at every day! I’ve never been to New York so I’m excited and scared all at the same time! I cannot wait!! :0)

I love this ship and can’t wait to be on board!

Anyone ever heard of Fish Extenders? Well, I spent hours a few weeks ago creating my Fish Extender gifts for our cruise!

I don’t think I realized the HUGE undertaking I was putting myself through! The Cajun Cookin’ paper bag cookbooks were very time consuming but I had a lot of fun with them! :0)

I decided that since we are going to Canada and I’m Cajun which are descendant of the Acadians (got that?) I’d bring everyone a little piece of home!

Mini serving size of Tony Chachere and Tabasco sauce!

Each room’s bag includes: a Mardi Gras Fleur de Lis necklace, a Fleur de Lis cookie cutter, a Cajun Cookin cookbook made out of brown paper bags, mini travel size Tobassco/Tony’s seasoning, and something I found at Target that is not remotely Cajun – Duncan Hines icing flavor powder!  :0)

Ready to go!

I also shopped and shopped and shopped for MONTHS for my cruise semi-formal night dress. I couldn’t find ANYTHING I liked and I tried on what felt like a million dresses! I finally decided on this one! Yay!
