Mission: 2013 or Planning Our Return To The World, A 2013 PTR
 Good Mornin' ya'll!My name is Gina, and I will be your guide, organizer and narrator through this adventure of planning my family's return to the world! Those of you that have read my previous PTR, and my current, and in progress, TR know that we just got back on April 5th! Before we even got finished with our vacation we were trying to think of when a good time to come back would be. So, here I am, working on making that happen!  and I'm glad you're here! Just sit back, relax, grab some popcorn  and join me as I drive myself crazy planning!

Excuse Me, Just Who the Heck ARE You People?
I'm sure that alot of you are wondering just this very thing. Who the heck are you people!
Well, with this post, I hope to answer that very question.  HI! I'm Gina. I am 31 years old, a Mommy, a banker, and the Disney trip planning extraordinaire in our little family of three. I love everything about Disney, and it seems like I'm always in planning mode anymore! Even if there's no trip to plan, I still feel the need to glean the disboards for all the information I can get my hands on. The little princess in that picture above is Emma. She's my little angel. My everything. She loves everything there is about Disney, and is always ready to go! Just yesterday, she was trying to pack things in her Minnie Mouse purse, stating that she was getting it ready for our next trip.  This is Daddy. Daddy loves his girls, and is always ready for a good time at Disney World! He always helps with the planning when I need it, and loves to read dining reviews to help with planning out our meals. So there you have it! Our little family! Now it's time to get rockin and rollin on some planning!

So...When Ya Goin'?
I guess the next logical question to ask would be just this...WHEN ARE YOU GOING?
Well, to put it plainly...I'm not sure...I know...I know...Why start a PTR if you don't even know when you're going? Well, we know we're going next year, and we have it narrowed down to a couple of different times. We just need to figure out which one it's going to be. First, we had pinned down Fall Break, October 2013. We were so excited about this! This would mean Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party, and the Food and Wine Festival. I have always wanted to try both of these, so the idea of going at this time of year was very inticing to me! Then we...well, I...got to thinking (I know...dangerous) the idea of having to wait that long to go back was a little bit depressing. So we came up with another time. DH though of going in May, just after school let out for the summer. This would mean longer park hours and Star Wars Weekends. Now all there's left to do is weigh the pros and cons of each time, and decided which one to choose. Here's our choices: May 16th-23rd or September 28th-October 5th Help me decide! Tell me when we should go and why! |

My vote is for fall break...here are my reasons: *The heat of summer! *The crowds of summer AND Star Wars Weekends. *WE are going in the fall and we could arrange a Dismeet! *...and besides that, I would have someone to commiserate the long wait with!

I'm here now!
Have y'all been in the fall? I love Disney anytime of year, but if you haven't been and seen MK all done up for Halloween/fall and experienced F&W, that would be my vote. I went with my mom, stepdad and little sister for a long weekend in October 2009 andit was great! Slightly cooler, crowds werea bit more managable... Loved it! Can't wait to do it again with DH and DD someday!

I'm in!!!!
 I vote for Sept/Oct 2013. I love that time of year. We are planning for Sept.2013 (and will be starting my own TR soon!!) and love the weather and the fact that the crowds are lower.

Nope...we've never been in the fall. The more I read about it, the more I am tempted to go then, though! F&W would be so much fun, and the pictures of MK all dressed up for Halloween are so cool!!! Quote:

You gotta go in the fall!
I went the first two weeks in October 2010 and the lines were great, we never waited more than 30mins for anything, the only ride we skipped was TSM for obvious reasons. The weather was gorgeous and it didn't rain once.
