Ok, I think I'm in the right place now!!
This Mardi Gras we'll be taking advantage of the young ones being out of school to meander on over to the best place on earth for a week!!!
Here's the deal:

The cast:
Me (Heather)
DH (Jamie)
3 children
Sarah, Gabe and Abi (9, 7, 3 in that order!)

The plan:
We'll be driving from Louisiana, running from parades all the way to the best place ever!! We've been gifted with a week from a friend in a time share, for feeding their dogs for the FOUR disney trips they took last year!! So we'll be staying offsite at Star Island.
We have 6 days planned, with all the trimmings, got the kids P and P tickets as well as their park tickets for Christmas, and have scheduled a breakfast and a few other suprises for them. We'll be celebrating mine and DD 9s bdays (although hers was this weekend, she says it's only fair she gets too to)

We haven't been since Oct 06, so we're REALLY looking forward to it!!
And maybe NOW that tag fairy will change my first timer to 2nd time around!


Oh, and one cast change from last time, last time we took inlaws and DH's sister and child, this time it's just us and we're SAVORING our freedom with just our kids!
 
We are leaving on the 2nd and staying until the 10th. Our little ones are 10 and 5 years old. The School Board gave us the week off and what better way to spend it than at Disney! (We had taken them out for a week in December - shhhhhh... don't tell the attendance enforcement or we may be tortured) We are with you!!! I have a feeling that the parks will be FILLED with Mardi Gras visitors. I attempted (for the past two months) to change my hotel to another and was told that they are all BOOKED! Plus, the flights out of N.O. have been booked for months. Scary! Oh well, we will be doing the second line with each other through the Magic Kingdom. Our neighbors and some dear friends are going then, too. Woo hoo!!!! :banana: With LSU's big win tonight... the excitement is building very quickly! Go Tigers! :yay:
