Well we just got back a little more than a month ago from our first trip to Disney World. Of course we absolutely LOVED IT!!!! And the kids tell me every day how they wish they could go back. We had such a wonderful time. If you'd like to see that, click the link in my signature for all of the FUN!!!
Ok, so Manny and I have been together for 11 years this month, I met him when his son Anthony was only 22 months old. Then we had 3 beautiful daughters, Emily, Lizzie and Sam! Well, we never got married, we did things a little backwards. We had our kids, moved in together and lived happily without the want to ever even get married. We figured, we were together and that was all that mattered. And really it is, but about a month ago, we decided we did want to get married
And with that, of course we would want a "Honeymoon" I put that in parentheses because I don't know if it's actually called a Honeymoon with 4 kids along for the trip. But we wouldn't have it any other way. We were actually just joking about how long we think we could stay away from the kids!!! We both agreed on 1-2 days!!! That would be it! We love our kids
We are planning on going back at the end of September/ beginning of October. We Love Halloween and are really looking forward to Mickey's not so scary Halloween Party. Hopefully Free Dining will be offered next year too, and we are also going to be participating in the Homeschool activities that will be going on during those weeks as well. So we have a lot planned for this trip already and cannot wait to book our rooms which will happen sometime over the summer.
Another GREAT thing about this trip is that my best friend Nicole, Makdyn here on the dis will be coming with us!!! Her daughters are 9 and 6. Our girls will have so much fun together. They are all such good friends and will be thrilled and way over excited to be going to Disney Together.
It is a possibility that My Mom, brother and his girlfriend may come as well. We'll see, it's too early for them to plan. They are not Disney fanatics like myself. (That's because they've never been)
So we are much looking forward to our next trip to Disney World!!!
So, there is Me, I am the planner of these Disney Trips, I love Shopping for Disney!!!! I made autograph books and t shirts from the creative designers on this board
Oh, how much fun I had getting ready for this trip.
Then there is Manny. He wasn't too sure he wanted to go to Disney World, Silly man, before we took this trip that is, now I know he is waiting to go back as well. He sure isn't a planner, he's a "sure honey, whatever you want to do is fine with me" type of guy. Typical guy right? LOL
Anthony: He is my 12 yr old stepson. I love him to death and he is such a good boy. He loves family vacations, he just thinks they are so special, which they are of course, but some kids don't realize how special they are. He does!!!
Emily: She is actually 10 today!!! My big girl, I can't believe she's already 10! Emily is a very sweet girl, but can turn into a monster beast in the matter of seconds. She likes to be in charge and get her way
She did surprise us on this trip though. She isn't really the bravest kid around, but she got into this "thing" while in Disney and HAD to ride Expedition Everest!! Well, she loved it, I was petrified, I was hanging onto the seat and her for dear life!!!!!! Oh, i'm not too sure about riding that again next year.
Lizzie: She just turned 8 last week!! She is the sweetest little girl in the whole wide world. She is always happy and always smiling. She is happy doing whatever, you'll never hear a complaint. She was so amazed by this Disney Trip, probably the most out of all of the kids. Everything she saw was so amazing to her, and I thought that was so awesome!
Samantha: The 5 year old Princess, The baby, The spoiled little monster. She is the baby and that's that. I admit we spoiled her when she was younger, we knew she was our last, and we held onto it as long as we could. She is another that can be sweet as pie, but she can also make Emily and Anthony run away from her screaming when she is mad. She scares them
Well, here we all are with "The Man" himself
As for the wedding , we will be getting married on July 4th, 2010 and going to Disney in September (we didn't want to go over the summer months with the heat and crowds) July 4th was picked by Manny, when we were first deciding on this, he shot that date out and was very excited about it. See when Manny gets excited about things, I have to act on that, cause it doesn't always happen. In other posts I will introduce you to my Maid of Honor and Bridesmaids and i'll post pics of where we're getting married ( which is being reserved this week) We are all having so much fun planning for this wedding, My Mom is thrilled and we're already looking at dresses and rings, centerpieces and cakes. It's so much fun. Just as much fun as planning to go to Disney World!!!!
I'm very happy to be starting up another pre trip report. This was missing from my every day life for the past few weeks since i've been home from Disney World. So i'm glad to be sharing our Trip and Wedding planning with my disfriends!!!!!!!
