After much debate, I have decided to start another pre-trip report. The first time I tried this, I started 9 months before my trip and it only went 3 pages. I was slightly devastated and moderately embarrased... not really, but it was a stinker! My second was slightly better, so I hope to not bore the pants off of you.
I love the DIS, we have the best group of people here lending tons of ideas, thoughts, encouragement and friendship! My favorite subject is food porn! Imagine explaining that to my family and friends! The DIS makes even the lurkers out there want to join right in. So, thats what I would like to do again, if I may.
Like many of you, I turn to the internet to satisfy my Disney fix. I am a wife of almost 22 years and a mother to two girls (soon-to-be 19 and 23). None of them have the fascination that I have for all things Disney. Dont get me wrong, they like it but I dont think I have to explain it to you folks. I am a WDW veteran with 30+ trips under my belt. So, I guess Im a bit obsessed in a way.

Anyone up for a whirl-wind, Disney trip with us?

Me and my DD on the last trip to WDW
- 30+ WDW trips since 1975
- Experienced 11 (out of 23) WDW resorts so far, ranging from Pop Century to the old Golf Resort/Disney Inn.
- Last trip was in December 2008, Pop Century (just me and my oldest DD!)
- Former Disney Store cast member
- Lost my first tooth right before the Polynesian Luau (mother about killed me! I ate one piece of bread...)
- Been counting down for this trip since the 365th day!
My co-worker Jeri (age 23)

Jeri
- This will be her VERY FIRST TRIP TO WDW!!!
- I have known Jeri for 10 years and she is the same age as my oldest DD.
- She loves all of the Disney movies. Her favorites are the Little Mermaid and Alice in Wonderland. Not very fond of Winnie the Pooh.
- I will try talking her into signing up on the DIS, maybe she'll join me in this pre-trip report!
