Hey what a minute, i bet you guys are thinking, what is he doing writing a PreTR so soon, he said he was not going back until 2009, well you would be wrong.
See i do things on a whime, and yesterday, I got a whime.
Can you get a whime? Well if you can i got one.
I was sitting at my desk thinking, You know i keep telling DW that I am going to suprise her with a trip to disney some time.
When we were sitting around at my nephews 2nd birthday party this weekend, my sister asked DW wouldnt you be upset if he just planned a trip, and did not tell you about it. She says "No" he keeps saying that he is going to do it, and it would not suprise me if he did.
There was my opening. At the time, i did not know that I was going to make reservations.
But yesterday, I was thinking about how much money i spend on her for christmas, anniversary, birthday and so on.
Well it ads up to the a disney trip if not more.
We set limits on spending for those events...and well, sometimes, i get 1 present that is under that amount.
I think i went over my christmas budget by about 5 times the amount last year...
So I thought what better way to spend my money than to invest in disney.
Sounds good right, well it is.
So here is the plan.
DW's birthday is in July, i know how am i going to keep this secret for another 6 weeks, well, i am good, and hopefully my excitment will be able to be contained.
This is how it is going to go down.
For DW's birthday in July, I am going to get her a New Disney Shirt, one that I will order on disneyshopping, and get the mathing set for me, her, and Parker, dont worry about the cast yet, i will introduce us in the next post.
Sidebar: if you want to meet us sooner, just click the links in the siggy, and go to the TR from last year, and the report on our new park hopper.
Back to the story, well, she will open a gift that has a shirt for each of us, and say what is this, then she will see the tickets for our trip this december.
She will be thrilled and look at me with those loving eyes.
and give me tons of kisses.
I will have told all of her family about it already, and that way they can get her gift cards to buy stuff for herself whatever she wants when we go down there...she will love that more than any gift that they could buy here around here...she is hard to shop for, she really is pretty simple and does not like to buy a ton of stuff, but i love to spoil her, and this will fit into my plan perfectly
Well a few of the details are We will be going December 8th to December 13th and staying at Pop Century.
More details to follow.
About the title of this TR
How can it be a free suprise Trip you may ask...well the suprise is listed above, she does not know about the trip yet so it will be a surprise when i giver her her birthday gift.
The free part this is where it gets good.
Some of you may already know, that i have a few areas where i am getting my free money from.
First up is the change bucket that i have where i only throw in silver coins...there is already over half of hte trip paid for in there.
The second is the credits that i have from my sunshine rewards for disney gift cards is over 125 so that will be used to splurge on stuff.
and the third is my disney Visa, which i can cash in for free gift cars..i have about 40 dollars on there, so the ticker listed in my siggy is shown of how much i have and how much i have to go, i will get there in the next few months and that my friends is how we have a free suprise trip.
I am still not sure about my title, so i might be changing it, but it will stay somewhat the same.
I am going to try and do the links to the updates on this first page, we will see how it goes.
I will post them here when i start in on the Chapter Titling
