one year ago this week my family and i were starin down the barrel of a trip to WDW...when the economy melted down last september, my wife asked me if we should postpone the trip...i said no, we had saved up the money, the trip was paid for and who knows what the future may hold..we went as planned and had a wonderful week...

fast forward one year to the present, i've been laid off for 8 months now (managing to still pay the bills though), and i've never regretted going cuz you never know what the future may hold...

I completely understand .. my DH and I planned on taking our DD in February for her 5th bday, but I lost my job in May. I thought the trip was out the window, but my husband said that, since we had the money for the trip already, we should move it UP instead (hence, the November trip).
