Hi!

We are doing the surprise thing this year too. Last year we told the boys too far ahead and they had such a hard time with the excitment leading up to the trip.

We are going 4/27-5/4 - staying on-site for the first time (other than a weekend with my mom) because of the 7 for 4 deal! We are planning to surprise the boys on Easter so we'll have about 2 weeks to answer all of their questions and let them enjoy some of the pre-trip excitment. Isn't that half the fun??

I love your surprise box!! I think we are going to incorporate our surprise into their Easter Egg Hunt. I haven't figured out exactly how since the Easter Bunny does the eggs and the trip is from us, but I'd love to use your box idea. We bought them each a set of Mickey luggage from Disneyshopping but I have been trying to think of something to put inside the 3 pieces of luggage that nest inside each other to tell them what the surprise actually is. I'm sure my boys will need it written out as well - I could pack actual Disney tickets and they probably wouldn't get it without spelling it out.

Looking forward to reading about your trip.

Hi there! Wow that is going to be a great surprise for your boys at Easter. They will never suspect a thing!! You'll have to tell me how it goes. I didn't quite get the reaction I was expecting at first. I think they were just confused and overwhelmed. And then overjoyed!! Still all very funny and cute!

Congrats on staying on-site for the first time. Enjoy and have a great trip!

Oh yeah... I forgot to mention - we are staying at CBR! We went with preferred, but not pirate. The boys aren't that into pirates. Actually I asked DS5 if he liked pirates better or Nemo (of course, without giving anything away ) and he said "Nemo!!" so Nemo it is.

Oh that is great!! Your family is going to love CBR!!

We will probably have a Nemo room too. The pirate rooms weren't ready to book for our arrival day. I am going to ask about them at check in though. Either way we will be happy just to be back at CBR!

So glad I found this tread. We recently booked a trip for next December and are trying to keep it a secret. Glad to see it can be done. Great pictures and awesome story - your boys are adorable. I too have a 7 and 9 year old both obsessed with soccer but the 7 yr old is a girl. We are driving this time and I hope they don't figure it out til they drive under the Walt Disney World sign. Good thing I have the Dis to come too or I would spill the beans. Have a great trip in a few days!!!!
