Welcome to my TR! If you are new & didnt follow along with my PTR, you can check it out here.
Who are we?
DH (Tim), DS8 (Zach), DS10 (Alex) & me (Amy). Again, if you want to learn more about us, check out my PTR (or at least the first post.)
This is a story of a super special trip to celebrate 15 years of marriage with my DH.
Ive always wanted to visit Disney World during the Christmas holidays, but havent wanted to deal with the Christmas break crowds. When I realized that the Osborne Lights, MVMCP, Food & Wine, our anniversary & our kids half-week of school all coincided, I knew this trip was meant to be!! Our Disney dates were Tuesday 11/8-Sunday 11/13. We also spent three days in the Tampa area visiting DBIL ("Uncle Jeff") prior to checking in at BWV.
We usually stay off-site by making an exchange with our timeshare. Since this was going to be a super special trip, we decided to rent points & stay at a DVC villa. The Beach Club was our first choice but the person we rented through has his home resort at BWV so that is where we booked. We waitlisted BCV but it never came through so BWV it was! And we loved it!
Another thing that made this trip super special is that we actually pulled off surprising the boys! We did end up telling them that we were going away but told them that we were following Tim along on a business trip to North Carolina. Tim was so funny he kept telling them how boring it was going to be!
So welcome aboard & thanks for reading!!
Up next: The big reveal!! With video!!

I'm in for the fun! can't wait to hear what you thought of all (well almost all of) the Holiday fun 
I figured I'd wait to start reading your TR until we got back from our trip... how did you get on page 50 something already? 
Happy Anniversary!
On Saturday morning, 11/5, we were up around 6:00. I showered & finished packing. Everyone had some breakfast & we were pretty much ready to go. But the boys thought we were going to North Carolina so we had one more thing to take care of before leaving for the airport. Tim kept the boys distracted while I snuck around the house placing the clue cards in their pre-planned locations.
