Well, here goes my first attempt at a trip report! First of all, let's get the introductions out of the way. This is a picture that was taken of my little family last year during a Grand Floridian photo session at WDW.
We had the same crew for our trip this year. We have learned the hard way that we shouldn't vacation with others, so it is always just the three of us.
First up is my DH, aka the most wonderful father and husband in the world, who claims that he goes along with all this Disney business for his girls, but I know he secretly loves it. He is a hard worker and a great provider for our family. DD and I love him dearly! If I had to pick a Disney character that he is most like, it would be Mr. Incredible!
Next is DD, aka the center of my universe! She loves all things Disney and wants to go back again already. She is in kindergarten this year, and is a very smart and sweet little girl, although occasionally a drama queen. I think she is most like Ariel for sure.
Then there's me, the writer of this report! I am a thirty-something, stay-at-home mom who absolutely fell in love with Disney World last year. I taught third grade until I got pregnant with my DD and decided to hang up my chalk for a while to be a mom. That was the best decision I have ever made. I also keep children after school to earn a little extra income. I honestly think they created the character of Marlin (Nemo's Dad) based on my personality!
Now a little background.............. Last November, we took our very first trip to WDW. None of us had ever been. It was the most incredible experience for all of us. I couldn't think of anything else when we got home except how I was going to get back there! I thought we would never be able to go back in 2009, but everything fell perfectly into place and we were able to go after all. So come join us for our 10 day journey through the world.
A few details:
We stayed at Pop Century from November 7-16, 2009.
We had the regular dining plan (FOR FREE!!!).
Our mission was to do as many "firsts" as possible.
The trip title came about because almost everyone we talked with before our trip asked us the same thing, "Why are you going back to Disney World when you just went last year?" or "What could you possible do that you didn't do last year?". So I was on a mission to prove them wrong. Let's see how we did!
Up Next: The biggest "first" of my life!
