[canadaman]

We surprised the kids this morning with a disney world trip. They are so excited. My 9 year old was jumping up and down as he read the letter that was under the tree for him. it is to bad it is 205 more sleeps away. We are going July 19 till the 27th.

Seeing that this morning almost brought tears to my eyes.

We kept the disney trip secret once...right up until the morning we were leaving for the airport..our son was 9 at the time..one of my favorite memories!

Friends of ours woke the kids up yesterday morning with letters from Santa telling them that he had packed the car and they needed to get in it right away and drive to WDW.

I can't wait to hear from them about how the surprise went.

We too surprised our girls. I did up a "Song/Riddle" to the tune of "Deck The Halls " . Every 2 lines was a "clue" that I put in with someones present. I had to number the presents so they wouldn't open one before the other All the time and effort was worth it though They had a BLAST opening them! Some of the ideas they came up with were priceless as they were opening.

Second to the last reveal was their plane tickets and I included framed collage pictures of our prior trips for each DD for their rooms. They really enjoyed seeing how much they've changed over our trips.

The final reveal (just for fun) was our "Family Travel Binder". We've had the same binder for all our Disney Trips and it's got us through thick and thin They all laughed at me when I created it the first trip but now it's part of the family! They really enjoyed reading the binder with all our itineraries etc.

I would love to do the "it's time to get up..we're going to Disney" surprise..but I had a hard enough time keeping this a secret for only a month and a half. Even my oldest DD said she couldn't believe I kept it a secret from them!
