SPOILER ALERT: She loved it!
I forced my mom to go to Disney World. Well, I talked her into it at least. She thought I would forget about it until I called her up and finagled her credit card numbers from her and booked us a trip (don't worry, I paid her back! Get married once and all of a sudden you have to pay for your own vacations that you force people to go with you on).
Luckily, by the time we left she was stoked. She jokingly would complain to her coworkers about having to go to Disney World and of course they'd all been as adults with no kids and LOVED IT so that shows her!
We went November 8th through the 14th (yes, it was hellish) and lucky for me, she was expecting "crowded" to be CROWDED so while I was complaining about the crowds (a tad worse than September) she didn't seem to mind
On this trip was just me and my mom. This is me:
The dip on the right is my newish husband. He didn't want to go
And this is my mom!
The only things you need to know about me is that I LOVE hockey, I LOVE beer, I LOVE Colorado, and I LOVE the Broncos. That's pretty much it.
My mom is a Kindergarten teacher and LOVES Winnie the Pooh (knowing this, you'd think it would be easier to talk her into Disney World!)
We somehow had the best time EVER even though I had indigestion 98% of the trip and the crowds were the worst I'd ever encountered. Planning and waking up early paid off GREAT for us.
-There was ONE thing the entire trip we ate and didn't like (including all of food and wine and some restaurants with bad reviews!).
-We had 29 cocktails
-We cried happily at least 8 times
-We got to sit down on 3 bus rides total
-It took one day for my mom to say "We have to go back before you have babies!"
-It took two days for my mom to say "OMG WE HAVE TO TAKE YOUR DAD AND BROTHER HERE!"
All in all it was quite the success. Tune in to see why!
