After the let-down that was Friday's mail experisnce, I didn't allow myself to get too excited when I found two large, thick Disney envelopes in my mailbox after Buzz's soccer game on Saturday. I calmly carried the envelopes inside. I showed them to DOnald (who couldn't care less), and asked the kiddos if they wanted to see what the Mouse had sent us....
Oh, yeah baby...The REAL docs this time!!
You know, they really aren't all that exciting, so why do I feel so excited? I guess because this is just one step closer to the vacation I 've been planning for over a year, and thinking about for 5 years. I've wanted to take the kids on "their first trip" since Buzz was born. And now it only slightly more than a month away - wow!
I like the luggage tags...I actually don't have one like this because when I was at WDW the past two years it was with the pom squad I have now mentioned quite a few times
and the whole trip is set up differently. We don't get fancy trappings like luggage tags.
I wil ladmit to being one of those who wishes that there was a new theme for this year...I liked YOAMD a lot, and it is true that my kids and Donald and MIL have not seen it yet. But I wanted to see some new parades and shows!!
Oh well. I do love those beautiful blue outfits Mickey and Minnie wear.... So it is all good!!!
Buzz has already squirreled away with his luggage tag...he wrote his name on his and his sister's name on hers. Who knows where they are now... Both kids have little private stashes of treasures in their room. Since we drive, we don't even really need the tags (though you KNOW I'll be using mine, friends!!), but I am sure both kids will show up with theirs when we start packing up the car for the trip! That is just how they are!! A few months ago, I bought Buzz Peter Pan (before it went into that pesky, and seal-tight, vault they're always threatening us with), and it came with a FREE light-up Peter Pan pin!! I told Buzz to hold onto it and he could wear it at WDW. He squirreled it up to his room immediately. When I handed him the luggage tag yesterday, he exclaimed, "I'll put it with my Peter Pan pin!!!"
Have I done an awesome job of shoving Disney down my kids' throats, or what???

Truth be told, while I do notice slightly elevated crowd levels, I have never noticed a huge number of Jersey accents, and according to television, those are pretty noticable, right?
... and when you need that little taste of Disney, Broadway & NYC World of Disney are only about an hour away!... 
"I am Just Here to Babysit" is also hilarious, and I promise I'll be using that one (should I credit you on the shirt?). But one of you was actually able to hit the nail on the head with the slogan I had already come up with - amazing! Check it out:
One day, we'll get her some therapy. But for right now, we're going to WDW!! And besides, I am sure she will make up her 2/3rds by buying Buzz and THE PRINCESS every last thing their eyes fall upon in the gift shops....
