Hi everyone. it has been a long while since Ive done a trip report here on the DIS. Life gets crazy and I dont always have the time Id like to relive our awesome Disney vacations. Im sure most of you out there havent read my previous trip reports because they are kind of ancient history here on the fast moving DIS. So Ill introduce the major players.
First up is me. Im Jenny and I love vacationing at Disney World. Then there is my wonderful DH. He too loves vacationing at Disney World, just not maybe as much as me. This picture is from our trip in January 2012.
Then we have the three Darling children. They have all pretty much grown up going to Disney World so it is in their blood and they love it.
This is Wendy. She is now 13. An official teenager. She is often my laughing buddy. We had tons to laugh about on this trip.
Here is John who is now 11 years old. I keep thinking the time will come when Disney is too little kid for him, but that hasnt happened yet. He still loves it.
Then we have Michael who is 8 years old for 3 more weeks. We sometimes forget that he is still a little kid, but he reminded us on this trip. It was so fun to watch him still having fun and loving all of the characters.
This trip was a doozy. The kids and I left home on July 31 and didnt return until August 24. So get ready. This is going to be a looong ride!
