RIGHT!
BACKSTORY:
So, my parents have been DVC members since I was 13. I am now 36. My dad passed away 5 years ago, and the rest of us still get one annual big trip out of the DVC. In June, my 3 siblings (+wives and kids) and my family of 5 will be going to Hilton Head for 5 days.
My wife and kids and I have been planning a Disney trip in March for a while. Our kids will be 9, 6 and 3 and it just seemed like the perfect age. My Mom informed us that she'll have points left over even with the HHI trip that she'd give to us as a Christmas Present. She included a list of resorts that she had enough points for.
So, we'll be staying at Kidani Village from March 19th through the 24th. We'll arrive on Saturday the 18th, so I booked the Dolphin for a night. I really couldn't be more excited. Last Disney trip was March of 2013, so it'll be 4 years and one kid between trips. We will be driving from Green Bay, WI, so it'll be a heck of a road trip. But, my kids are great travelers.
This was just booked last week. I know I need to get on ADRs and other fun stuff but, it's been a wild ride this past week.
We've been DVC members since 2008 and been to both HHI and Kidani. Both excellent resorts and have fun. We also drive from KY, so not as long of a drive as you, but I get it. Now, you get to do the ADR planning and then later the FP+ planning. Keeps that trip excitement up. Feel free to post them or plans here and we can visit vicariously thru you.
Hello men! Been a busy couple of weeks my way. Finally replaced the main electric panel and have almost completed the new mini split heat pump installation in the house. Neither project has gone according to plan, but I'd have been shocked if it did. Only thing left on the heat pump is the final vacuum of the line/check for leaks, then charge the system. It's been an interesting adventure since this is my first installation of a heat pump. (Don't tell Dave I'm doing this stuff! lol)

You are quite the home installation expert and am still waiting for you to remake one of my rooms here. I don't think Zerfs is licensed in VA, so you should be ok.
Hope the golf outing goes on as planned.
Sad. But I guess every group has drama once in a while. We just had to worry about Norm's tennis matches here
.
And that's all the stress I want to have in my life.
Had a fun weekend. Smoked 10 pounds of pork belly low and slow over hickory and sliced it up nice and thick for bacon! Yum yum! Other than that, stayed pretty lazy. Watched Tenn beat Florida, went to church and hung out with the family.

Bacon sounds great. Did you remember to mail me some samples?
