It's Almost Here! It's Almost Here!

11 days until my family of 4 heads down to FL for my 42nd birthday trip to WDW!!! Yesterday we added a last minute detail (MVMCP) to our plan and now the puzzle is complete! Nobody in my house gets my Disney craziness, so I've come here to share my plans and excitement! Here's what I have:

11/13 Begin journey (by car) to Florida
11/14 Arrive at WDW and check into CSR (first mod resort stay for us) / Dinner adr @ 'Ohana
11/15 Magic Kingdom Day/ lunch adr @ Crystal Palace/ MVMCP (surprising kids with a Mickey's Grand Welcome delivery this day too!)
11/16 Scheduled "down time" at hotel: swimming, napping (ha), shopping, etc./ DTD that evening with adr @ T-Rex/ evening @ Epcot
11/17 DHS Day/ lunch adr @ Sci Fi
11/18 Epcot day/ dinner adr @ Rose & Crown/ MK EMH with DS's that night
11/19 AK Day/ lunch adr @ Tusker House/ TT Dessert party
11/20 sadly going home early in the morning

I feel pretty good about my basic plan, we'll go with the flow once we get to the parks each day. I have to say I'm more excited about this trip than I've ever been! My goal is to relax and enjoy the time with my kids and DH, share new experiences, and leave with lots of great memories! Oh yes...and to finally try a Dole Whip!!
By the way, I'm so grateful for this community...it has kept me sane during the past few months of my countdown! It's nice to be surrounded by so many folks who share the passion for Disney that I do!
