For the last 4 trips to Disney, I've bought my kids all new clothes to wear. New tops, bottoms, socks, pajamas, swimsuits and even underwear.
Am I crazy? I always buy on sale or on clearance and I typically buy matching outfits for my 2 DD's (ages 6 and 3). That way if one gets lost, the other one has on the exact same outfit to help identify her.
But, I think that going on vacation is so special that it deserves new clothes too!
I almost get their clothes at 50-75% off or more because I buy at the end of the season and the stuff I buy can be worn again when it get warm in the spring so the clothes do get worn more than just for the trip. I also like that the girl's have new clothes and that they match because the pictures look especially nice.
I think I do this so it makes me feel closer to my trip. Last night I picked up matching hot pink Cinderella windbreakers at the Disney Store for the girls.
As soon as I have a trip planned- I start packing. For each thing I put in the suitcase makes me feel closer to the trip even though it's over 6 months away. I love the little "rush" of finding a new outfit or toy to bring along!
Anyways- just wondering if anyone else does this too!
