So I am hooked. I have been sucked in and completely consumed with planning this trip! I eat sleep and breathe Mickey Mouse. Yes, we are planning our first trip to WDW, we will be there over Thanksgiving week. I CAN'T WAIT! 
We have four kids, ranging in age from 3 to 16. We will be celebrating our 17th anniversary and our oldest DD 14th birthday is on Thanksgiving Day. I have been to Disneyland more times than I can count but as far as the World goes I'm as "green" as one can get. I have spent several weeks here on the DISBoard, reading and gathering information but I had no idea this vacation would be so much work.
We are staying at the Wilderness Lodge Villas. At first I wasn't too excited about it because we are from Colorado and can have the "mountain lodge" experience most any time. But as I have been reading the descriptions of the resort I think it will just be like a slice of heaven! We might not even feel homesick on Thanksgiving...like there is a chance of that happening!
All our meals are planned...the ADR's are set! It's funny to think that we know what we are going to be eating in three months but I have no ideas for today. Oh well, I don't have time for dinner now anyway, we have too much planning to do.
I have taken steps to ensure that each one of our kids has a specail experience all their own....our youngest DS is going on the Bayou Pirate Adventure out of the POR. Our oldest DS has chosen a few places to eat, isn't that what all teenage boys think about is food? And our two DD will both be going to the BBB in the MK on. For our DD birthday breakfast we are eating in CRT and then for dinner that night we are eating at the LTT. It will truly be a magical Thanksgiving Day!
Anyway, I just wanted to say hello and thanks for all the advice and tips! Now if someone could just tell me how to make the time move faster!
