Dad and the boys got into their swimsuits and head for the pool. Malorie crashed while watching HER show and I looked at the mess and carefully contemplated my plan. I immediately started to pitch anything that we didnt need. Then I jammed everything in the suitcases. Clean or not, I have this thing about washing everything when we get home.
My mom asked if I wanted to go do some shopping with Tim later and shed watch the kids. Wow! Ok, dont have to twist my arm.
I said I would order them pizza and have it delivered. Finally got to use that service.
Tim and I drove to DTD. We had a birthday party to go to when we came back. My best friends daughter was turning one and I had to get her on outfit from Disney World. Which I did along with a cute Santa Goofy.
We walked around a bit and my feet were just killing me, my legs were not cooperating either. The excitement of going somewhere without the kids in tow was just too overwhelming to listen to what my body was telling me: Get some rest!
I did get some earrings for me and Mal, to replace the $30.00 pair she pulled out and threw on the ground when I wasnt looking in one of the parks. They were a trio of blue shaped Mickey heads. So we wear them together around here and those she never bothers.
We get back to the room around 10 and everyone is passed out. We join them.
We wake up and start loading the rental.
Last room check is complete and we go over to POP to eat. I finally say lets walk around this place and see what weve been missing. We have some time to kill.
.
Took some pictures and looked at the decorated windows and doors.
I took my boxes to the front desk to leave for the next Diser staying at POP Century to decorate their window and door. That was fun. You should try it and see if there are any swaps going on. I brought some of my own decorations but I didnt have to bring everything, we just keep recycling and passing on to the next person.
Tim found out that even though we werent using Magical Express, you could still have Disney take your luggage to the airport for you. We were all over that.
We still had more time to kill and let the boys hang out in the arcade. Some really nice guest gave my son his card that had a ton of credits on it and my boys were in heaven. When it was time to go and credits to spare I told them to pass it on and share the fun and they chose another kid to pass it to.
Then it happened. My son Zach couldnt fight it anymore. The end was here and it was really getting to him. There wasnt a way to avoid it anymore and he caved.
He just didnt want to leave and started to break down. He wasnt making a scene or anything, but in the best way he could, he had his own private moment that Im about to share with all of you, yes at times, I can be the evil witch.
We promised wed return and that we all felt this way. And hiding his tears we left our magical vacation behind us.
We dropped the rental off and were shuttled to the airport. The only things we had with us were our carryon stuff. We on purpose had a bag of all my kids purchases (swords, TOY guns, and the trinket stuff they won at the arcade, to show security. I thought it was better to be upfront and honest about these specific things. NOPE. They took all of it. Would not let us bring on plastic toys. We could put it in our suitcases but Disney had those. Another passenger behind us asked where we were going (he was a cop) and offered to put them in his luggage. Our kids were just so upset their toys they bought with the money family and friends gave them were being taken away. I think the last thing my DH said to them was: Hope your kids enjoy the toys!
We get to our terminal and our plane was delayed. Many families with kids were everywhere waiting for our plane to be ready. It was pretty crazy. I was getting so tired of chasing Malorie around. The boys made some friends and there were circles of kids just talking about their trips and playing games.
The ride itself was uneventful and we got home pretty late after taking my mom home. Dumped everything in the living room and crashed.
Our wonderful vacation was over. We accomplished secretly planning our family vacation and surprising our kids. We spent a fabulous week in WDW and got to do so many things. Everyday something about the trip is talked about. It lives on. We, me and Tim, are always pricing and seeing what we can do next time. He wants to go for 10 days. Im thinking of splitting up hotels and trying something new. I even tried to do a mini weekend in June for Star Wars weekend, but now Im happy I didnt being pregnant and all. I can barely last a few hours looking for a dish washer.
Talk about surprises, a day after our trip, it happened. Baby number 4 was magically and secretly created.
There are things even I cant plan.
Thanks for hanging in there,
my mission is over and completed.
You are a good sister offering to go along with her. Heh. 
Keep it comin'!
Hi, there! I am loving your TR! Your family is just too precious!
