Here's how it started.
Last Tuesday I was having a cranky day. I don't remember what it was that got me off to a bad start in the morning, but I do remember the poison ivy I found lurking about my back yard in the afternoon. By the time Danny got home from work, I was ready to complain to somebody. He sat on the couch patiently, listening and commiserating. When I suggested we partake in 79 cent tacos for taco Tuesday at our favorite drive through, he said he thought it was a good idea.
On the way he surprised me.
"My company already decided where our Christmas party is going to be this year." he told me. In the past it's been in places like Colombus or Las Vegas or New Orleans.
"Oh yeah? Where did they choose?" I asked.
"Some place called Coronado Springs Resort," he said with a straight face. "And there's something about a pass to the park."
Hmmm, I thought. I knew it sounded familiar but I was still in crabby mode and not at all thinking right.
"Where is that? Is that the hotel in San Diego?" We had walked around the beech there on our honeymoon.
"No," he said, finally laughing. "It's at Disney World!"
Man! Is there anything more exciting than that? And how tricky is he? He knew the whole time I was complaining he had some fantastic news and he kept it till the perfect moment.
I was thrilled. It's been a tough time lately and was I ever in need of some good, exciting news! Even still I could have never guessed it would be a surprise trip to Disney World! It's magic there!
Of course I logged into the disboards as soon as we got back. I started reading everything and became so inspired with my planning and scheming! For me, planning is almost half the fun!
So here I am, a week later, full of ideas and questions and a need to talk Disney! It's so good to have an outlet for all these crazy ideas and excitement, and like minded people to share it with. Thanks for being here. I hope you'll join in!
