Hello everyone.  So today has been interesting to say the least.  I guess my daughter wanted to play dress up and have fun with my makeup!  She said, ”I look pretty!”  Yes, that’s my brand new palette of eye shadow...guess I have to make another stop at Sephora.  Oh well...
On other news, we officially heard from the genie and we have started our communication emails.  Our genie is Lisa.  Her communication has been good for response time.  I did however ask for menus and she referred me to the app.  It’s a great tool, but I have guests that don’t have the app.  
 
This week will seem long but that’s because my husband is spending a week in Orlando for Microsoft Ignite!  He has been looking forward to this for a long time.  I am going to do my best holding down the fort while he is gone.  So in the meantime, I am trying to start packing the kids.  I can’t watch more football because my fantasy team is sucking right now.  Sigh
 
Go Pack Go
 

Tight squeeze.  Maxed it out at 14.  But we will have 5 kids under 12.  Smaller bodies lol.  Still going to be crazy.

That's me already! ?

Oh you are SUCH a mean mom !  Kids have no idea how lucky they are these days !
 
I know....next I’ll be screaming “Get off my lawn” !
??❤️

Hey all!!!  So we are officially at 33 days!!!  My family is getting so excited.  We are frantically trying to potty train my daughter, which is giving me some major stress.  She doesn’t understand that she has to be potty trained to go in the kids club!!  But in the end, she is trying really hard. 
On another note, we ordered the kids some luggage and they arrived last night.  Here is Axel and Emily

So we are officially at 42 days to go!!!  We had some serious rain from Nestor so my event was cancelled.  I sell Dotdotsmile on the side so I was a little bummed because this is one of my favorite events!!  In any case it gave me some extra time to go shopping!  I grabbed my bff and on our way we went.  I was thinking that I needed another dress and the kids needed some formal wear.  
 
I couldn’t help myself when I saw this.  Introducing Axel...quite dapper I think.

Hi all.  It's Melissa here.  I am going to try and do something that I have always wanted to do...A Live Blog of our Symphony of the Seas cruise.  Let me first introduce myself.  If you watch Below Deck on Bravo then you will understand that I am the primary!  AHHHHHH.  I love being in charge...lol.  Joining me will be my wonderful husband, Axel (6) and Emily (3), my parents, my grandmother, and rounding out my motley crew is my brother.  You can probably tell by the name of my blog that we are a family that loves Disney.  But a close second would be Royal Caribbean.  We will be lavishly living it up in the Villa Suite on November 30, 2019.  I know what you are thinking...why start a blog so early?  I guess I am just too dang excited not to get my thoughts down.  My hope that you all enjoy yourself while reading this, and it may help future cruisers. 
 

Yay!!!  We are on our very first Star class cruise on the SOTS in the Villa.  I currently have a live blog going if you want to follow along.  We only have 47 more days of waiting!!!  When is your cruise @Pookie?  Love the gif by the way!!!

Steven: I've been trying to symbolize my wives last Star Class experience on my first true comment here. Here I go...

I was just reading your blog yesterday and am very much looking forward to following along.  I would love to do a villa suite with our extended family, but we've yet to even get them to agree to a cruise.

I am bursting with excitement to follow along.  Our first star class cruise is 11/30/2019 so I can not wait to read yours!!!  
 

This is why I am a bad influence. ?

hahaha YAAAAAAAAAS
Can't wait to get the updates! Happy cruising!

Following....because I'm on this cruise too!  Been on land for 26 years. See you on board!! 

@WAAAYTOOO I am so excited to eat on the balcony.  Our party plans on doing this a few times during our cruise!  Also, thank you for letting us know that we have to order EVERYTHING!  My dad will freak out if he doesn't have his salt and pepper!  LOL

They are my favorite reviews.
