Do We Have Enough Coins NOW???! After everytime my 4 year old drops a few more coins into his jar labeled 'Disney $' this is what he says. He has never been to Disney World, in fact he never knew it even existed until he saw the Disneyland ipad app and fell IN LOVE! He said, 'Is this place REAL?' Oh yes, my sweet little son, it is most definitely real. 
Since that day about six months ago, he has begged us to go to Disney nearly daily. He does chores around the house for coins to put in his jar and asks constantly if we can dump it all out to count it. He even tells his Daddy when he goes to work to make lots of money today so I can go to Disney World. So, who is this little 4 year old? He is Jackson, my first born. He loves pirates, bacon, and anyone dressed up in full costumes. Examples: Chucky Cheese, Easter Bunny, etc. *He is going to go crazy bananas over all of the characters!!! Here is the star of this show.

The rest of the cast is first my DH, who has never been to Disney and has NO idea what he is getting in to. In fact, as I have been figuring out our park plans for each day he says, 'I think you are planning way too much.' to which I say, 'Really, how would you do it differently?' DH says, 'I would walk into the park, grab a map and start walking.'
Oh how very different we are! Show of hands here, who thinks his way is best? Anyone?...anyone?.... Bueller? It's settled then, we are doing it my way!
We only have two short days in Disney so we are going to use them well. But don't worry, I am a, stop and smell the roses type of a person, so I won't be dragging my family along like a wild woman. I have a general plan, for planning sake, but it is loose. I just really enjoy the planning process.
And lastly, me.
This is my very first ever Pre trip report, In fact this is only my second time to Disney World! I went when I was 18 years old and now I am...well, let's just say I am now grown with a DH and two amazing kiddos! I am a full time momma to two wonderful kiddos and I am a part time photographer, with a love of Photoshop. More on this later.
Here we are.

Ok...lets talk trip details, shall we?
First, we are heading to WDW Oct. 15th-19th. So, this will be a quick trip for two reasons. First, money. Unfortunately it costs quite a bit to have this magical experience and with a very tight budget we have managed to do Disney in a fairly affordable manor.
Second, was because of her

....my second born. Who will not be going with us.
I just couldn't leave her for more than 4 nights. I will miss her too much!!
We are staying at the Lake Buena Vista Villages and Spa Resort in DTD. It is the two bedroom Antigua sweet with a full kitchen and living room. And this is what I am most excited about....

Well, I guess this will do for now. More to come...including park plans, ADRs and the super fun pirate treasure hunt I have created to surprise him with the trip!!!!
