The title of this trip is a question I asked my mom yesterday when I attempted to start my TR. It was kind of a big trip...I didn't know how to pick just one thing and make a title of it!
The characters include me (Abbie) and my sister (Rachel), her fiance (Daryl who is kind of popular on the boards) and baby (Gus), my parents, my grandma and great aunt.
On October 6th I woke up from my 'nap'
at 3am, I never sleep well before going on a plane. My parents were having a mini vacation before my grandma, my aunt and I showed up from the airport. Rachel, Gus, and Daryl were roadtripping there and estimated they'd be in Disney the same time my plane landed.
Before being picked up I went to Dunkin Donuts for coffee and got back just in time to crate the dog (Captain Jack
) and grab my suitcases. After getting through security and everything I looked at gardening magazines with gmom and my aunt haha. Before I turned my phone off my mom and sister were sure to exhaust the 'See ya real soon' joke 
The flight was uneventful, I slept the whole time. The older ladies rented a car and were staying at their time share so it was just me on my way to All Star Music!
I was the most excited and co-operative one on the bus. The driver was excellent and it seemed a shorter drive than usual. I literally jumped and skipped off the bus and over to my parents waiting at the door. I expected them to be enjoying food and wine. We went into the food court and I saw Daryl holding GusGus! And Rachel came up and gave me a big hug. We all bought refillable mugs and then went back to the room so I could drop my stuff. Daryl has a timeshare but it wouldn't be ready till the next day so they shared the family suit with my parents and I for the night. The plan was to go to lunch at steak and shake (which Daryl loves and can't find where we live) and then go to hollywood studios, so that's what we did.
Venturing off property was....interesting. Not the biggest fan. I like my Disney bubble. Although it was totally worth it for that Smores milkshake. Yeah, you read that right. SMORES MILKSHAKE.
After that it was Hollywood studios time. Unfortunately I do not have picture or video of it, but Daryl skipped into the park like a crazy person.
(Rachel is talking...always when I take pictures -_- That's what she gets! Also fun fact: Daryl absolutely loathes Mickey's hat. Haters gonna hate.)
We went on Star Wars and the Great Movie Ride (party animals, two whole rides.) Rachel missed Star Tours last time because she was pregnant, so she was really excited to be back. She skipped all the way through the line.
Mickey Pretzel Rachel got which I accidentally knocked on the ground while we were shopping...it was kind of an upsetting moment...
After Hollywood Studios we went back to the room and Rachel's family napped while I went off to Magic Kingdom. I didn't realize that my room key was no longer a key to the world card and all my hoppers had been transferred to my other ticket when I purchased more days at HS guest services.
I was angry my ticket wasn't working, sad I had no buddy on this trip, and didn't want to go back to the hotel to sit and do nothing. So I went over to the Poly to have a romantic sunset dinner of nachos by myself
And I then when I was on the dock waiting for the boat back to MK bus stop, wishes started. I texted my boyfriend that we were going on a Disney trip asap whether he liked it or not. From that point on I spent a good deal planning a trip in my head which has also helped with the Disney blues immensely 
When I got back it was time for showering, Phineas and Ferb, unpacking and sleep. We had MK at rope drop in the morning...
