Well, maybe if you double DOG dared meDo it!!! I double dare you!Yeah, I'm not sure how well that planning strategy will work after the 10th anniversary.
Well, maybe if you double DOG dared me
DD and I got close last year while DH was deployed - 22 nights total for 23 years - just not with DH
I told DH that once the girls are a bit older, I will certainly be spending time in WDW with them while he is deployed...he was very supportive of that. 
While DH has been retired from the Air Force for 4 years, he still works for the DoD and was in AFG for the DoD, not the Air Force. Which branch is your DH in? I definitely recommend visiting WDW if/when your DH is TDY or deployed as it really helps to make the time go faster. I wouldn't have wanted to be anyplace else without DH last Christmas. We stayed at the CR and WL and it really helped "distract" me from the fact that it was our first Christmas apart since we met. I even enjoyed driving home for 14 hours!Ok...I double dog dare you! LOL. And funny, I didn't know you were a mil wife too.

I hope your DH doesn't get deployed, but if he does, I say - go to WDW no matter what your kids' ages! And, you can't beat that RO 40% off
We have quite a bit in common! He was deployed last year for 4 months, which I realize isn't a ton, but still...and he is actually leaving Jan 15th, 2012 until 2nd week of March, but he is only going to Mississippi for a training class. At least he will be stateside, and in the same time zone (or close to it) 
Maybe you should meet him after his training at WDW for spring break?!He is NH Air National Guard, in for 10 years. His full time job is with them under the DoD, he is an airfield manager.
How sweet and thoughtful, Smileybug - YES! Thank you allGood morning ya'll.
To all of you military families........... Thank you!! Thank you so so much.
Me, too!! It's so hard to look at the decorations knowing we aren't going this Christmas, but I'm so happy for all of you who get to experience the magic of a WDW ChristmasThat tree always gets me.
So sorry about the "things" that happened this weekSo I talked myself down off the ledge, and will still be staying at WL for our anniversary, but decided to downgrade from CL to CY view, instead of completely cancelling WL and downgrading to POR.... Had "things" happen over the past few days that has made me very "unnerved", but looking up again.
. I think you made a prudent decision though and you still get to stay at WL which is the most important thingI believe I've read that WDW Resorts start taking down the docorations the Monday after New Year's Day, so that would either be 1-2 or 1-9 this year.
It won't be long now!
...the decorations won't be there, but maybe some year I will stay at Christmas time!
I think WL has the most beautiful decorations!
