Hello everyone! Join me as I plan our (My husband and I's) first trip to the world! Let's get straight to introductions so we can get to the fun stuff, PLANNING!
That's me! Evie! It's from Halloween, when I was attempting to pass out candy. We didn't get very many trick o' treaters. I don't usually have a lot of pictures of me, I'm usually the one behind the camera. But, more about me! I (as well as my husband) live in California. I grew up going to Disneyland usually once a year, and more frequently when I turned 18 and started going with friends. I've been obsessed with Disney ever since I could remember.
That is my husband, Phil. He went to Disneyland a few times prior to meeting me, but he didn't become obsessed until we met. We were AP holders until our move, the Navy moved us further away from Disney. We were in San Diego, and PCSd to Lemoore. The drive went from 1.5 hours to 4 hours. Also, the Navy decided to send him out to sea for ten months. He will finally be home in about three months, and I couldn't be more excited. I don't know if you could tell from the picture, his favorite ride is Space Mountain. Especially Ghost Galaxy, which is what Space Mountain turns into during the Halloween season. He also likes to wander the parks eating turkey legs, churros, and ice cream from Main Street.
We have talked about getting AP's again for Disneyland when he gets back, but we are putting off returning home until we can experience Disney World. It's been about a year since we last went to Disneyland, and are going to try to make Disney World as magical as possible!
This trip will be our post-deployment vacation and a belated disneymoon! Planning this trip has been a HUGE distraction and I believe is what has helped me get through this deployment. It's my distraction. Although, I do wish he were here to help with the planning. Luckily he will be here when it comes time to pick FP+ selections.
I'm going to try my best to make this interesting and not boring. Also, if you have any suggestions/tips, please please please share them! This is our first trip and I want it to be wonderful!
Stay tuned! There will be more coming VERY soon!
