Hello and Thanks for joining me on this journey of planning our 2nd trip to Walt Disney World! I am so excited to return! And for those who have followed along with my previous PTR & TR (which I just finished!), Welcome back! Here we go again!!! Let's start with some introductions, shall we? 
THE CAST:
I'm Melissa, I will be turning 29 in 3 weeks, and I work Part time as a Realtor. I'm a wife to 1, a mommy to 3, and I love all things Disney! My DH is 32 and works for the phone company... and is probably sick of all of my Disney talk!
We have been together for 8 years, married for just over 5 years. Neither of us had the privilage of going to Disney as kids (or adults, until this year!) and we were determined to take our own one day. SO thankful that we finally made it happen!!! 
Our oldest is my DSS... turning 13 in a couple of weeks and is going into 7th grade. He was not able to go with us on our 1st trip so we are looking forward to taking him this time. It's a big part of the reason we are going back so soon! He is a lover of all things electronic. Yep, a video gamer no doubt! I think he will really enjoy the rides at WDW!
Our beautiful DD is 7, soon to be 8 in September...2nd grader/princess! Favorite movie: Tangled. Favorite Character: Rapunzel! (and we missed out on the Tangled M&G on our 1st trip so it's a must do this time!) Her favorite ride so far is the Mad Party tea cups! Least favorite: Either ToT or It's a small world. (cried on ToT but was extremely annoyed with Its a small world, LOL!
)
Our sweet DS...our baby, just turned 4 in May! He will be attending preschool 3 days a week this year and is such a smart and lovable kid! Favorite Movie: Toy Story! (all of them!) Favorite Character: Buzz Lightyear. Favorite ride so far: it's a tie between TSM and Winnie the Pooh! Least favorite: ToT! (even though he claimed it was "cool" and begged to ride, he was completely terrified!
)
I fell in love with Disney World as soon as we arrived...as most do I guess!
I wish we could go all of the time, because I would! If only it didn't cost so darn much... that's DH's only issue with going, but I say it's worth every penny! The kids became instant Disney lovers as well, it's all we talk about now. Oh and the kids do not know we are going back yet... it was a day-before-we-left surprise on our last trip and that went great! This time, I'm not sure what to do, so we'll have to talk more about that later!!! 
Well, that's the WHO and the WHY... Stay tuned to find out the WHERE and WHEN and all of those other wonderful details!!!
I knew you way back when. 
Yay!!! Now, DS goes to preschool and they have their own schedule and his break isn't until April but it's not a big deal for him to miss a few days, not like it is the big kids so it'll be ok for him. 
Ummmm, yeah... it doesn't look like we'll be in a Deluxe after all. Of the Mods, I really like the Port Orleans ones! I'll be looking forward to reading what you have to say about the resort.
