To make things more official I thought I'd introduce us. Sit back and relax while I give you our life story.
Who am I? I'm Amanda (aka Mom or head vacation planner extraordinaire). Currently I am 30 years. That's about to change in 2 weeks. But whenever I'm at Disney I don't feel a day over 8. So for math purposes
let's say I'm 31 minus 8 = 23. Yea, that's a good age.
I've been a Disney lover ever since I can remember. As a kid my parents took me and my little sister to Disney many times. Not
enough times necessarily, but many times. I grew up watching Disney movies, wearing Disney t-shirts, singing Disney songs, etc. You get the idea.
As an adult I tear up whenever I see a commercial about Disney World. Why is that? There's something about the idea of visiting Disney that makes me excited and wanting to cry.
I'm a freak like that.
Who are they? They would be the boys. I have one big boy who is dh, my not so Disney-fied redneck. And I have threee littles who are my so-so Disney-fied sons.
Dh (that's dear only 14.675% of the time) and I met in high school, yada, yada, yada, married in 1997 and 3 sons later we're hanging in there. He had never been to Disney prior to 1998 when we travelled as a second honeymoon in June of that year. It was a quick, fun trip and he started to realize how fun Disney could be. Though he's still not as convinced as I am.
The boys are B, C, and D.
B (7) is a bike riding, baseball playing, whirlwind of goofiness. His first trip to Disney was in 2002 when he was not quite 3 years old. He loves rides and is a semi-Disney fan.
C (5) is a rolling in the dirt, fishing, spitfire of sarcasm. His first trip to Disney was just this year, February 2007. He was sorta impressed though he did prefer the cruise over the World.
D is the holy terror of the group. He's just 1 year old and has added plenty of grays to my head.
He's never been to Disney as he vacationed at Grandma's and Grandaddy's while we went in February. By the time we cruise in 2009 he'll be almost 3!!!!
The crew is ready for our next cruise. The littles ask quite often when we're going next.
I typically reply with a mommy phrase, said dreamily "One day......" I keep reminding them to save up their extra coinage and maybe "one day" will get here faster. They happily oblige.
Now you know the crew.
Any questions?
Plus it would be fun for her and for the kids.
