Hi everyone. Thanks again for all of the helpful advice. My wife and I have gone ahead and filled out the contract for points at Saratoga Springs. This will make us first time DVC members. We had debated, as many of you may recall, with stopping our purchase of new points and trying a resale. We really like the 50 year aspect of SSR, and while resales would save us money now, new points appears to be a better value in the long run.

So, the package went back out today via the enclosed FedEx package.

I didn't waste any time, and made our first reservations today! We'll be arriving July 26, and staying for 7 nights. We want to take it slow, and we realize we won't see a lot (remember, we'll have a 23 1/2 month son with us). He loved seeing the characters on the cruise, and he got so happy when he saw Goofy on a Disney special on the Travel Channel. When the rep at MS asked who was coming I mentioned our son. She said "ok, so there will be a pack-n-play waiting for you in your room." It was so thoughtful and accomodating that I didn't have the heart to tell her that Ben already sleeps in a bed. So obviously my experience so far is very positive.

My love of Disney has turned into an obsession over night, and I'm loving every minute of it!

Congratulations and welcome home.

With such a young child, your new SSR membership should be enjoyed for generations. We'll do our best to leave it looking shiny and new for you later in July after our trip there July 11-16.
 
Have a great trip and be sure to give us a full report when you get back.::MickeyMo Welcome Home Neighbor!
 

Congratulations on your purchase, Michael!

And WELCOME HOME!!!:bounce: :Pinkbounc :bounce:
 
Congrats and welcome home! We too just bought at SSR our son is 3 1/2 now and figured the value of 50 years was right for us AND since Disney pays the closing costs it winds up being similar to resale prices anyway. We wish we did it sooner since we took 2 trips to WDW last year. It would have already started paying for itself but oh well. Our first trip home is in NOV we are cruising then staying at SSR we are not even doing the parks this next visit. We just want to relax! I am so excited since they have just started taking Spa reservations so I book time for myself! This vacatiuon is going to be GREAT!:Pinkbounc
