Hello Hello!
We've started ferociously planning our trip for September 2017 and what better way to do that than a Dis planning thread?
Who are we?
My name is Sarah (obvs), I'm 38, a Realtor, a mom, and I was elected to our city council last fall (in a super contentious election). I love comic books, the musical Hamilton, wine, hosting parties, board games (we have over 200 now I think), and I frequently speak on panels at geeky conventions (comicons, board game conventions, etc).
My husband, Chris, will pop in here too! He's 42, a nerd rock musician (he has a band that plays acoustic rock, but they sing about Star Wars, movies, D&D, board games, pop culture, Star Trek, etc.). They play all over the place at different conventions and events.
This is us, being us (at a Weird Al concert last summer):
We have 4 kids!
Sammie is 17, and she's an outstanding singer, she plays trombone, and is involved in every school play that comes around. She has never been to WDW (but they used to live close to DL so she's been there a lot)!
Parker is 14, and would play video games every waking moment if we allowed. He is also a percussionist in the school band and is on the wrestling team. (Also never been to WDW but has been to DL more times than he can count).
Brynn is 13, and is constantly facetiming her friends. When she takes a second to breathe from that, she plays Alto sax, is in school plays, and she's in a bowling league.
Ezra is 8, and is passionate about making his own Pokemon cards. He also loves Minecraft and doing whatever Parker is doing.
This is our family:
Our plan at the moment is to be in Disney from September 7 to the 23rd. We have a family suite booked at All-Star Music Resort. I really wanted to stay at AoA, but for that long of a trip it was $1000 difference, and a thousand dollars goes a long way! I'm keeping my fingers crossed for free dining because that saves a family of 6 a ton of money.
Up next, dining reservations! I'm almost done making them. I have to make one more tomorrow because our trip was longer than 10 days so I've had to get online every day to make the last few.
