Mony, that video was adorable!!!!!!!!! Loved it! You did a FABULOUS JOB!
Happy he kids are excited. I loved the "you're going to turn 4 in DW" remark, LOL
Thanks Marita. Matt got to celebrate his birthday last time, now it's Mals turn. If we do this again, I'll have to make sure the dates fall between Aug 10th and 13th. Shouldn't be too difficult.
Great Video...that was such a great way to suprise them
We like puzzles and hunts around here. When they were little boys and they came home from school, I'd have "treasure hunts" ready for them.
Loved the video! wish I could be that creative. How awesome that you got a great response. The last few times I tried to surprise my kids it was kind of anti-climatic so I have given up...glad it worked so well for you.
When we went in June of 05, they were like cool. So, I've been there. I think with mine, they had to try it a few times to understand how they are supposed to react.
The same happened when we tried the surprise thing. The kids love to go to WDW and are always asking when we can go back but when we surprised them,

I wonder if the age has something to do with it as well.
I've been away from the boards for about a week so my quotes are going to start from awhile back
Look at my ticker :sad1
What size bags do you use? I am so doing this next trip.
He's in my thoughts and prayers
OMG - I cried when the kids finally figured out where they were going. That video was awesome. What do you use to put in titles and stuff? Very nice.
Laura, you are going and that's all that counts. Remind me of that one day ok?
I use the gallon for the kids and 2.5 gallon for us. Yes, this time I am using them for DH and I. Lot's of the baby's stuff fit into a sandwhich size bag.
Thanks for thinking of DH and I have a vista movie maker program that came with the laptop. Once I figured out what I was doing, it was easy.
Well, I'm glad I'm not the only one who cried watching the video. What a fun family! I'm so excited for you.
Cried? Really? I usually am the cryer. I can't go to a christmas program at the school without my eyes pooling with tears. It's really sad.
i loved the video!!!! such a great surprise. mal was sooooo excited! and i loved how when zach said that he told you epcot was his favorite park you said, "no, you didn't!" nip it in the bud, mama! oh, and i love how you created DH at the end!
5 days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You can see his mind processing what they are about to do and it hit him that they weren't doing Epcot. Animal Kingdom is his favorite park, but just because we aren't going to Epcot this trip, it's going to be an issue.
Remember, he's the kids who sat at POP century with his head in his lap cause he couldn't bare to leave Disney World.
Now it's 4 days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cute video, Mony!!! I loved your ending slide
. . . where you said
reel soon!
So, you
do get my jokes!
Glad you all liked the video.
My favorite part was when they figured it out without yet solving the whole puzzle and Zach told him to look up 36, and Matt being goofy didn't move fast enought and Zach yells T-H-I-R-T-Y-S-I-X! With emphasis. That's truely my Zach right there.
And when Mal ran up to her daddy to hug him and you can hear him say OW into the camera. She probably hit his scar. Yea, I'm twisted like that.
I'll probably have one more mission to report and then it's off to Disney World.
Someone please pull the plug on Faye.
