We gave the kids the trip for Christmas. It was great. We ended up making a puzzle from a paper I made with characters and the days for our trip. I wrapped up all the pieces with little disney things from the buck store. They opened up this huge box with balloons and all the smaller presents inside. After they unwrapped everything and put together the puzzle they were thrilled. They had one gift from Santa left to open. They opened that big package that had smaller wrapped packages inside.
Now a little background, my Mom had been in on the surprise the entire time. Helping me stash things and pick out things. She knew that this was the costumes and tickets for the P&P party. Well the kids start handing out the addressed boxes and they say Byza (which is what they call my Mom). She says "Pardon me!!". She opens up her box with a ticket and princess dress in it and I tell her I guess Santa thinks she should go to Disney with us...good thing we booked an extra plane seat.
It was amazing to see the complete shock on her face. She cried. It was this time last year that she lost her best friend to cancer so she has been very blue this Christmas. They had planned on going to Florida together but just never made it. She is just so thrilled now. I love it

And the cutest thing. My DD, 6, said "Do you know what I liked most about Christmas? That Byza is coming to Disney world with us. I'm going to let her meet the princesses!!!".
