"Our Magical Gathering Trip Report" isn't that creative of a title, but, that's kind of what it is. So, on with the show.
Cast of Characters:
The Main People
Me, Gina, 30. I'm a SAHM. I love WDW. That's pretty much it.
DH, Billy, 30. DH also loves WDW but not in the crazy, obsessed, fanatical way that I do. He's a computer genius and does something with computers for his job. I don't exactly understand what he does but I do know that he likes his job, works very hard, and deserved a vacation. We got married at WDW January 1, 2005. Very romantic. Here's a picture:
Not the best picture of us, but I love this picture. We got married at the Wilderness Lodge and it was so nice. Anyway...ever hear the saying "First comes love, then comes marriage, then all hell breaks loose"? Meet my son, Will.
DS, Will, 2.
He came out screaming and has been screaming ever since. He is into everything, breaks everything, falls off of everything, and runs into everything. Very "busy". Also very sweet and empathetic. Looking at him is like looking in a mirror so I can't really resist his naughty boy charms.
DD, Gemma, 7 months.
Gemma is our sweet, sweet girl. She is an absolutely wonderful baby, an answer to many prayers and proof that there is a God and he loves us very much. Can you tell that we like her? She was a bit cranky at WDW, so maybe she isn't the perfect baby I though she was. Hmmmm.
The Rest of the Group
Mimi, DMIL, 50 something. Loves the kids, but lives three hours away from us so really is baby deprived.
Papa, DFIL, 60 Something. Had the best attitude of the whole group, and should have the worst...he's always in a lot of pain due to terrible arthritis and knee problems. Also has a neurological problem now and uses an ECV at WDW.
Granny, my mom, 50 something. Vacation commando, will not stop to eat, drink or sleep. Skinny, does not require food to live. Stayed with my sister and her kids.
Amanda, DS, 33. My darling sister, who left her husband behind to go to WDW with my mom and her two kids, Sam and Sophie.
Sam, DN, 6. My nephew, and the apple of my eye before I had my own kids. Forgot how to smile during this trip.
Sophie, DN, 3. My darling niece...how to describe? Diva? Drama queen? Sweet angel? Too smart for her own good?
Here's a pic of everyone on our first day:
My DMIL is taking this picture, so she's not in it, but you will get to know her soon.
We all stayed at POFQ from June 1st-7. We love POFQ and this trip was all that we wanted it to be. Full of magic, fun, memories and drama. I wanted to kill my whole family, and I wanted to go on vacation with them again. I hope that you enjoy this trip report. I'm writing it mostly for myself, so I can share it with my babies someday. I want them to look back on their childhoods and remember all of the wonderful times we had at WDW. I will try to update it as frequently as I can, but I do have two small children and life gets in the way alot. I think I"m going to try to get up early to write because otherwise I'll still be writing this when we go back in 18 months! I'm already completed my dining review Click Here, so it looks promising that I may finish this one! Wish me luck!
