no celebrations so to speak, one of the kids traveling with us will have a birthday on the day we leave so I guess we'll celebrate that while there - but really do we need a reason to celebrate other than making it back to Disney again!!!!!!!!

Nope, I never need a reason to go to Disney, none at all.

WHAT ARE YOU CELEBRATING???

We are celebrating my DH's birthday. We won't be in Disney on his actual birthday (on 1/17) instead we will be on our cruise portion of the trip. But after our cruise we will be celebrating it Disney style . The girls and I each had our birthdays celebrated at Disney in the past, therefore he said that it was his turn to celebrate there . My DILs will be joining us with the celebration. Kids have no idea that they are coming along with us .

My great-nephews will be with us and one is 2, but is just a couple of weeks short of 3 and his younger brother will be 6 months. Know what you mean about looking forward to seeing their reactions though.

WHAT ARE YOU CELEBRATING???

Not celebrating, its our 25th anniversary re-do trip, we both got sick on that actual trip.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We always bring a light jacket but they don't get worn much, after all its warmer in WDW
then up here in PA.

We also bring umbrellas just in case.

I do pack shorts for myself and usually wear them a few days.

Okay new question time!!

What resort are you staying at and why did you pick it?

We are staying at Old Key West! We picked it because we need a 2BR villa and my family used to own DVC there. It's still our home We have probably stayed there 15 times since the 90's when we used to go every year. I love the relazed atmosphere of OKW, and it is so beautiful!

We will be staying at our new timeshare..Wyndham Bonnet Creek. We just bought in about 6 months ago and we have points to "burn" so that was the impetus of this trip!

My question of the day

When do you plan to pack for your trip?

I started last night. I've been collecting stuff for the trip in a pile beside my bed, well last night I decided to go ahead and bite the bullet and packed the kids outfits and a few extras.

I will have to pack on the sly as this is a suprise for our DD's! I think I will have to get the bulk of it done before Xmas break. Then take advantage of every moment alone to tweak until we leave on the 5th. Worth it for the look on their faces when we pull into the airport!

I'm going to throw out the next question of the day, I don't think it has been asked.

I've thought about doing this as something special but haven't decided for sure yet.

I forgot to answer my own question. I'm just happy that I was able to get all the meals I wanted around the times that my family usually eats their meals and to accommodate our traveling party - you know planning for 13 isn't exactly the easiest thing to do - especially when the plans change every other day - sadly I don't think this is exaggerating.
