You will have a great time, here are a few do's:

Go see Osbourne Family Spectacle of Lights at MGM in the evening, it is beautiful and it "snows."

See the Christmas edition of Illuminations at Epcot, DF thinks it is so much better than the regular show.

Catch Mickey's Very Merry Christmas party at MK and parade is amazing!

Make your ADR's soon!!

Go to Pleasure Island/West Side at DTD for New Years Eve.

See the decorations at all the parks and take lots of pictures!

If you have time check out decorations at different resorts, especially Boardwalk.

Take a carriage ride at Ft. Wilderness - great for a couple or a family!

Most of all have fun, enjoy the atmosphere and family time and try to not let the crowds get to you, you will have a blast!

We went during Christmastime 2 times. It is truly the best. When we went 2 yrs ago it got quite cold out. So you will want to bring sweatshirts & long pants. In the afternoon it would warm up nicely & we would go in the resort pool. The resort pools are all heated.

And take lots of pictures. It really helps when you get home to have tons of pictures to look at. Take pictures of the decorations at the resorts & parks. It really is fun to look at them all later.

Enjoy!!!

My DH and I will be going from Dec. 18th through Jan. 1st. Which dates are you going to be there? Feel free to check our my TR. Maybe you'll get some ideas.

Here are some tips, from what we've learned:
- Go to MVMCP
- Visit the deluxe resorts to see how they are decorated
- Visit MGM for the Osbourne Light Show
- Visit the Candlelight Processional in Epcot
- Epcot does Christmas Around the World, with Santa Clauses in each country, sharing how each country celebrates the holidays
- WL does sleigh rides and POR/POFQ do horse/buggy rides

That's all I can think of, right now. I can't wait to hear more about your trip planning.
