Hey Everyone!
My DS (12) thought of our name ~ this was actually the trip of a LIFETIME for us. Because we had always wanted to visit during the Christmas Season, but we never had the self-control to wait until Christmastime. I always thought that we were going to sneak a second trip in
for Christmas time!! Yet, DH never felt that we could budget this.
Yet, 2007 was the year that we actually did it! We FINALLY waited all year long to go! It was an AMAZING experience and we had always planned to do a TR, but we have not yet made the time. Now it is summer and we are ready to do this. I remember about this time last year we were making the ADR's and we were LOVING all the Christmas pictures, so we thought we would share our memories with you.
This was the moment it happened...it was time to leave and we were so sad~ I knew that this trip was not the once in a lifetime trip that I had thought it would be!
It was on this trip in 1999 ~ that we all caught the Disney bug and we have never been the same since. We had visited some friends that suggested that we take our son (3 at the time) to WDW. We said (my FAVORITE thing that people always say to me now
) "Shouldn't we wait until he is a little older?" They asked us why ~ and I did not have an answer. So, we decided why not? We scheduled a trip for the Fall of 1999 and it has truly been one of the most enriching opportunities for our family that I could ever dream of.
Here are some memories of our first trip. We now have 3 children that I will introduce later, but at the time we had our first son we will call "Goofy". Goofy is now 12 and LOVES WDW and the Disboards. He is into pin trading and LOVES to help plan our trips. He loves to play basketball, baseball, and is always ready to have a fun no matter what the circumstances. He is truly a joy to our family. His favorite characters are Mickey, Stitch, Goofy, Chip, Dale, Max, and Pluto. (Just to name a FEW
DH, who we will call "Eeyore" and "Goofy". Goofy was 3 at the time.
This is Eeyore and myself on our first trip when we were just a little bit younger

Then we were blessed with our little baby daughter that we will call "Giselle". She has been going to WDW every year since she was born! She has the sweetest and most gentle nature and is a true blessing to our family. Her favorite characters our Minnie and Giselle. Here are some pictures of her throughout the years.
This is one of my favorite memories ~ I paid $200 for the Sleeping Beauty tea party and she got there and told me that she would rather go ride rides with her brother.
Kids are always so honest! Just LOOK at her expression!
But our family was just not complete ...
We were blessed with our next little bundle, that we will call Jack-Jack for obvious reasons! He is a baby who knows what he wants and has no problem asserting his opinion.
He is now 2 and is a joy to our family. He is really the "family's baby". Everyone takes care of him and LOVES him so much!
So this is us. We are excited to share our memories with all of our friends on the Dis. You have given us so much enjoyment and we hope that our family can be a part of this as well.
Next up : The beginning of our 2007 Christmas vacation ~ I cannot wait.
. He does not understand how I can plan trips for months and then be running like a crazy woman right before. I an understand why this frustrates him because it is ridiculous. Anyway, I have made the decision that I will not do this on the next trip.
