C'mon everybody, here we go!
Characters are going to be, My mom and Dad (in their 50s), my niece (her 4th trip I think to DL), Me (32), DS1 (6) "Peter Pan", Ds2 (5) "Dash".
We have 6 day park hopper tickets. The grands and my niece are going to Universal Studios one day. But me and the boys are hitting the park every day except our arrival day.. March 1st (Sunday), and March 8th (also Sunday).
Me and the boys
Closer pic of the kids with Potato Head with parts especially gotten on our last trip. With my oldest son, My dad, my sis and niece.
Grandpa, Niece, and both boys.
Grandma- who is finally returning to Disney.. last time was in 88. To Disneyworld, it was '84 before that, when I was 8. So I am excited for her to share this with my youngest especially who will be getting his FIRST TIME button this year.

Things to know, I am an ubber planner, and hate standing in line. I have bad knees after three surgeries, I probably will pic up a GAC pass at City Hall when I get my youngest's button. I am also vegan and can't eat too sweet of items or too many carbs so it will be a bit tricky.
I will be with my boys the whole time, so to ride some rides I will need to snag another adult. Rides the boys are too short for are - Indy for the youngest, Screamin, and Mailboomer.

I plan to give them each a Disney name to keep track but I need to ask them their favs again!

We are staying at Trendwest Worldmark Aneheim. It is brand new with two pools, so we are very excited. Flying into SNA or LGB, I forget right now, renting a car from Alamo. WE did pretty good on flights, and got a whole row to ourselves. We are right across from The Garden Walk so if anyone has some good tips that would be great too.

General Schedule is
Sunday - flight 2-4 from PDX< rent car, check in, check on food delivered from Vons.
Monday - DL hours are 10-8 and we are going to knock out Tomorrowland and frontierland, gonna check out Billy Hill for the first time. Not sure if we will take a break or go back early. My youngest gets a bit testy in the afternoon.
Tues- Use our Magic Morning and do Fantasyland, Adventureland, NO, and Critter Country.
Weds- We have Minnie and Friends at 9:40 park opens 10. Doing Small world, and Toontown then over to DCA.
Thurs- me and the boys go to DCA and the rest go to Universal for the day.
Friday - DL from 8-9:30 or so then over to DCA for the day, then back to DL for Sandbox and using fastpasses. Riding the BIG rides and rides needing two adults for two kiddos.
Sat- DL open 8-12, CA 10-9. Ride and get Fps for all favorites, Blue Bayou ressies for 11:50. Also making sure to do DTD and Build a Bear for my youngest, as we did it for my oldest last time.
We are all bringing cellphones, we tend to split up a lot. Meaning I end up with the boys and my niece and dad take off, they like the faster rides a LOT!
I am concerned with riding rides that only seat two people, and the weather, hopefully the weather will clear up and stay nice for our stay. And that most rides we can go on, and don't need to worry about the two seat issue to much. I am excited to ride Nemo as I last rode the Subs when I was 8! And Toy Story, my oldest's fav ride last time was BLAB so I bet he will love it, but hope they will let the three of us ride somehow without another adult. Either the two boys in one car, or me squished between them.

Pirates, Haunted Mansion
We are so excited over here, we almost can't stand it. The boys went out and played with the neighbor, and my oldest just said that he forgot we were going to 
We had lots of fun printing out Star wars clip art and making out signs for the Jedi Training.. Wish us luck, since we will be there a few days I plan to go till they pick us, but hopefully it will be the first time!
!! EVERYONE.. and
