Welcome to my trip pre-trip report! I am Virginia! This is a picture of my DH and I trying Lefou's Brew for the first time on our trip last year..we had brain freeze shortly thereafter and had to have freshly baked warm Mickey cookies to help with melting :rotfl:

When I was a child, being the curious sort; I asked a lot of questions:hyper:. My mom would always answer with a sigh.."yes Virginia" and it always reminded me of the Christmas story of Virginia who asked if Santa was real. It reminds me today, as an adult, to never be afraid of or stop believing in things that are miraculously wonderful! So there you have the origin story of my username and philosophy in life in general.

This is a mini report because we only have about a month and a half before our trip to the happiest place on Earth. I have recently developed a love of crafting Mickey Ears and have been crafting them on the weekends to help prepare for our trip. This is the first pair I made two weeks ago. They are Cinderella themed, pink for the first dress the mice made for her and were inspired by a picture I found on Pinterest. What do you think?

We have also been counting down by having Disney movie night! Our first movie night we watched an old Davy Crockett movie with Fess Parker. I heart old movies! I made Davy Crockett bars which were so good! I will link the recipe below. This was our spread:

My favorite Disney character is Miss Bianca...I just think she is grand...and speaking of Grand, this year we will finally get to stay at the Grand Floridian resort which has been a dream of mine for years.

I hope you will join along as we countdown to our vacation! Next up the important details, ADR's, resort, etc... But first here is one of my favorite pictures from our trip last year. The charming Mr. Pooh Bear

Following! My family likes to countdown with movies as well. My mom and her sisters actually met Fess Parker back in the 60's. He was spending time doing summer theater in small town Ohio and hung out with them and friends on the beach. So, of course, he is a family fave. Looking forward to your report!

LOVE your Cinderella mouse ears! There are so many cute mouse ears around... I bought a pair a year ago where I just swap out the bows, to try to keep myself from needing/wanting to buy so many... but then I see cute ones and I want more!
