Oooh! Don't you just love that feeling?!
Our October trips, last year and this year, are 'paid in full'. The Christmas one we overextended a bit
(you know the details) and it took us a couple of months to catch up. But it's all paid for now! (and then some!)
Two weeks in WDW is MARVELOUS!!! You are going to have
such a great time, I can't even begin to tell you!
WooooHoooo!
Take care,
Michelle
Oh my goodness I am VERY much looking forward to it. Dh is even a bit on board this time (I have promised MANY hours of pool time, non park activities, water park and "other" to get him to this point)!! I am so looking forward to us being at WDW without any of lifes distractions.
Honestly, right now what I am most excited about is thinking of having my kids and my husband all to myself in a happy and carefree place for two weeks. It seems like in our regular lives we are always running. ALWAYS. Dh works long hours (I am not really complaining...I do get to spend two weeks at WDW
) and the boys are always in something or other. My oldest is playing travel soccer, my younger two are on a rec. soccer tream. Dh is coaching the younger two and I am the manager of the select team. WHEW. So, in one week we have four nights of soccer practice for "Aladdin" alone, church on the other night, two dogs (one who got her paw run over today by "Goofy" on a bike, she's okay but I had to stop cooking dinner to wash and bandage it) to look after, at least 5 loads of laundry, I homeschool the kids, dh was out of town for half of last week and the first part of this one...and well...I think the point is made...we are VERY busy people (as I am sure is everyone else). SO...dreaming of our time together at my "happy place" goes a long way to keeping me sane.
SHUSH...no comments from the peanut gallery!
I
so feel the sigh of relief knowing they are paid off. However, our after Thanksgiving one has yet to have anything but the deposit paid off on it...but ya only live once and money won't make it past the pearly gates...so I figure we had better enjoy it while we can. That and I will only have my boys as little ones for such a short short time.
OKAY...mush be gone. But see, that is what Disney dreaming does...it brings out my deepest happy thoughts. Disney is just wonderful like that!
PLANNING UPDATE: I spoke with someone at GF's private dining about the birthday cake we are going to surprise "Goofy" with this year. Just to remind everyone...here he is. In September he will be 8 years old!!
Where did the time go?
I told them I was looking for something that would bring together snorkeling (his favorite activity), Pluto (his favorite character) and a few hidden Mickey's for extra fun!! They are going to run some concepts with the pastry chef and get back to me!!
And to refresh your memories here are a few of the other travelers:
This is a picture of "Aladdin". These pictures were taken a few months ago and the most recent ones I have uploaded to photobucket
And last but not least, "Stitch".
One of them together:
And a cameo by the dog who was run over by a bike (and lived to tell
with only a bandage to show for it).
Our other dog is a huge yellow lab...but he is scared of snow!! Talk about role reversal! HA HA HA! That snowy day was a whole lot of fun!! We had a lot of fun just being silly in the yard and I forced the boys to pose a bit so that I could work on my photography skills and get them sharpened up for our upcoming WDW trips!
OKAY....enough. I know. I have a few more updates but it's time to run. I will be back with more trip updates later tonight.
You are so right! And I have a VERY good bit of news on the heels of my "can do it yourself" attitude...DH SAID YES to tacking on some more days!! We will now be at WDW from 9/1-9/15!! So...I get my long vacation! WOO HOO!! I am so excited. And da da da drum roll please...everything is paid off in full...so now it's just saving for spending money! WOO HOO!! Our tacked on days come with free dining...
and Princess

This is gonna be one heck of a WDW vacation! 
Sooooo I'll be waiting to read about your experience & see your pictures.
