First off lets start this with the who is going on this trip.
You have the fauntleroy crew
There is me, im in the middle and the story teller of this litle adventure. I just turned 27 last saturday.
My lovely wife is next, she is 28 and stays at home with our little man, and sells avon on the side for fun.
then we have out little man parker, he is 20 months old today actually, he loves everything trucks, trains, cars, everything manly. watching the disney planning DVD, he even calls the monorail a CHOO CHOO, and gets all excited when he sees one. he laughs all day long.
you will learn more about us as this story goes along.
Now we have the parents
first up my dad.
not only is he dad, husband, and grandpa for this trip, he is also the cash behind the trip.
he worked very hard from the time he graduated school, started career at 17 while still in high school, and retired when he was 41 to spend more time with us, and be at every event we had in high school and college, he was every one of my high school and college track meets, and loves to travel and support his kids. when we grew up and my sister and me where out of college, about 7 years later, he decided to start working as a consultant. he now works with his boss from his career of 24 years and they do consultanting work for the company that they both worked for all those years, funny how things work out. he is loving his job and getting to make his own schedule even work from home if he wants.
they took us to disney at least every other year growing up, now that he has grandchildren, he is alternating between taking my family and my sisters family back there every 2 years, so next year is our turn, and 2012 is my sisters families turn again.
i cant find a newer picture of my mom with parker, so here goes.
mom works for a local school system and is charge of the media processing center.
you will also learn more about them as we go along.
The where:
we are staying at Fort wilderness i dont have any pictures of my parents trailer that are good but will take some before the trip, but in the mean time, i did find these online, that show the basic floor plan of there trailer, theres is a little longer than this one, but you get the idea by looking at the slide show of the trailer.
Click here for the accomadations of the trip.
candi, parker, and I get the back room with the 4 beds and our own bathroom.
The When:
we will be leaving here on June 3rd, and be leaving disney to come home on June 18th.
There is many more stories to share and get into but we have a few months to share them and for you to get to know us, if you want some more TR's to read, there are links to our 2007 and 2008 trips below in the signature.
Now some of you may be wondering where did that title come from and how did GB think that up, well since you asked.
lets break it down, Squirts
on our first trip to the world together, we were at TL and just got our lunch and were walking to our table, when i see out of the corner of my eye, some white landing in my coke and slide down the side and go under, i look up to see a bird, and look back down and think are you kidding me.
i get to the table and tell candi, she just starts laughing at me, see weird stuff happens to us all the time, sometimes we cause it sometimes we dont, but needless to say it still happens. i dont make up any of the stories i tell they are all true.
so i go back to the counter and let him the man know what happens and i get a new drink but not before he tells all the other CM's what happened, we have a good laugh.
so there you have squirts,
second trip, shirts
candi and i have alot of the same kind of character shirts, no need to say there is the shirts part of it.
and the flirts,
well read the 2008 trip and you see how parker is the biggest flirt out there, from the time we got to DW and it is cheerleading week and we sit down on the bus from our resort he is 9 months old at the time, and lays his hand on the little cheerleaders leg sitting next to him and candi on and starts to rub her leg as he is looking the other direction.
thats my boy smooth little man.
to last week when we are eating at a restraunt with my parents and he stars at the 20 something girl in the booth next to us and just smiles at her until she looks at him and smiles back then he keeps waving and smiling to get the attention of everyone at that table.
there is alot more good stuff to come, so please chim in and comment along , it will make it more fun for everyone.
coming up dinning dilema
