Hi I am a newbie for posting, I've read many TR and such on here though. I am trying to pass the time until our trip so I thought I would give this a try, why not?!
I suppose introductions/history is in order, here it goes...
Me: Mother, Nanny, Cheer Coach and Disney fan (of course). I grew up visiting DL many many times, but my favorite trip that sticks out is our surprise trip. My parents woke us up really early, had the suitcases packed, new outfits laid out and said "Get dressed, we're going to DL!" I will be doing this to my kids when they are older.
DH: Works hard to keep a roof over our head and food in our bellies. He was deprived as a child and never got a chance to go to DL. His mother's fear of flying I guess is to blame His first visit and only visit was in March 2006 with my family and I. My younger sister and brother were going to DL for a choir performance with my Dad chaperoning. My Mom, DH (boyfriend then) and I decided to tag along. DH loved it and cannot wait to take our kids
DD: Recently turned 4 at her Tangled party, Rapunzel is her current favorite She has become quite a Disney fan herself, proud Mommy here She is a big art fanatic too, she loves to draw. My filing cabinet is almost full
DS: He is 2, therefor still free at DL . He likes Mickey Mouse, Buzz, Woody but his favorite lately is Lightening McQueen. He would watch Cars all day over and over if I let him Other than that like most boys, he just likes to be outside.
This is my first time planning a DL vacation, it has been quite exciting and overwhelming at the same time. Luckily, I started reading and planning last year, I've needed that much time to plan.
We are going to DL 9/10-9/15 and staying onsite at PPH. We've never stayed onsite before, I have always wanted to stay onsite and having the bonus of EE made it the right choice for us. We originally wanted to stay at the DLH but decided we could use the extra money it would cost to buy a Photopass + and character meals. We will be doing Goofy's Kitchen and Minnie & Friends. We have a 5 day park hopper passes.
This will be both of my kids' first trip to DL & DCA and also their first airplane ride They are thrilled to be going on a big airplane and seeing the Disney Castle. Every time they watch a Disney movie when the Castle shows up, they scream "DISNEY CASTLE!" I can only imagine what they will do when they get to see it in person.
Alright, I think that's a good start for now. I will post pictures when I have enough points Any tips or tricks are greatly appreciated. Thanks for reading
