I think everyone who can relate are just venting a bit. I take all advice with a grain of salt so don't worry No divorce or disrespect is meant by this thread. Just me venting. Reasonableness aand love will reign. Thanks everyone.

Are we married to the same person???
My DH enjoys Disney, but he's not a fanatic like me. He often mentions going to other places for vacations (wha??? ), but until he actually attempts to plan a vacation or participate in the planning at least a little, we're going where I wanna go!
What's different about my DH and I, is that he is the Disney nut and not I! I plan the yearly trips for him. He gets so much happiness out of going each year (would LOVE to live in Florida) that it makes me happy. I am a SH mom now and his only request before we made the jump (did not have a child at the time, but I went back to school)was that we go try to go to Disney every year.
I think most of us are just goggling over the use of the word "forbid". It just seems so quaintly Derwood-on-Bewitched. If I was Samantha, he would so be a toad.
Perhaps if you point out to DH that this trip is mostly about seeing family, he'll be more understanding. If you then, perhaps, offer to go somewhere else next time, maybe he'll be more accomodating. Beware, though, you'll have to keep your promise.
