December 
But at least we are going! And there are LOTS and LOTS of pictures! lol
Here is the gang:
Myself, Candice, 26, Momma to 3 beautiful little girls! Zoe is 8, Abby is 5 and Olivia is 2! Oh and DH who is not quite the Disney fan i am but I am working on him He is Kristian and is 37 (YEs there is an ag difference and No Zoe is his Step Daughter, lol, Wanted to cear that up first 
) My Wonderful MIL is also comming along on our December trip with us and we all k now how MIL's are so lets just hope things go well!
To start off with we have been to disney twice. The first time, 2 years ago in Fabuary then the following year in January. The first trip was seriously the trip from Hell! Read below for details :
Our first trip started with me BEGGING to go to Disney! After lots of pleading, and umm, promises, DH agreed to go. I planned the trip a little over a month before we were to leave.
We head off after DH got off of work. We drove stright through and got to Disney pretty late. We grabbed some food at some all you can eat pizza joint which was TERRIBLE, I might add, and checked into the resort for some R&R before out Disney Adventure.
DH Was not feeling well. Had bad tummy pains. We headed out late to AK and saw the lion King show and walked around a bit then headed back to the resort to get ready for our ADR at Chef Mickey! Ate Dinner okay, Dh was a crank. HEaded back for an early night so we could get up early.
NExt day,MK! My first time seeing the castle! It was beautiful!
I was in Heaven! DH Needed to sit down so we headed over to some seats. Well, Low and behonld, DH was in so much pain he could hardly walk 
After sp,e help from a CM and myself we got hmi up and I drove him to Celebration hospital. He was told he had a 4 hour wait. So we did what anyone would do......
Went to our ADR at The Grand Floridian for Dinner with the princess!
DH was still in lots of pain later so he drove to the hospital while I put teh kids to sleep.
Next thing I know it is 6 Am and I am awoken by the phone. It is DH who is so upset. They say he needs surgery! A proforated bowel (Actually 3 of them) from undiscovered Diverticulitis. OKay, DH has the car, all the Money and I have 3 kids. How to get to the hospital. I call a cab. Its a No go. No car seats or money to pay them so they would have to walk in with me. I called EVERY cab company I could find.
After no luck I went out front to just sit and cry becuase I did not want to upset the kids. How could I get there to be with DH?
Well, here comes my KNIGHT IN SHINING AROMR!
The manager was walking by and saw me upset. Asked what was wrong, I said nothing, he sits down beside me and says well then, I am just going to have to wait here until you spill it. So I do.
He sprints into action. He says he will be right back. He comes back with coloring books, crayons, snacks ect for the kids and a van for us to go see DH!
How awesome!
We get to the hospital and he even walks in with us to make sure everything is okay. We stay with DH for a while who has refussed the opertaion because he read on the internet (From his room I might add, lol, Yes they have he internet on a movable overhead TV for about $8 a day) that this can be fixed with strong meds. Even though his doctors advised against it, he wanted to try this way first. Otherwise we would need to spend a great deal of time in Florida for recovery plus the 15 hour drive home.
I talk to the DR> It is MUCH more serious then DH made it out to be. He was septic and had a BAD infection. But to honor his wishes, I went along and supported him in his choice not to have surgery.
Went home after a few hours for our ADR at Hmm, The princess place in Epcot in Norway. I know shame on me for forgetting. We took the bus to get there. 3 kids (Olivia was 9 months at the time) a stroller, a diaper bag and myself. I had my hands full. We get off the bus and it starts POURING down raining
It was dark, raining and I was LOST and could not find Norway for anything! lol
But in the end I found it. I checked in to be greated with a true Royality greeting! The mamnager from the POP had called ahead and told them what was going on. they had a table waiting. Each and every princess gave extra special attention to the girls and the manager of the resturant gave the girls a trading pin. Then when we were finished we were taken to the back of the resturant to meet the chef who gave each girl a tattoo of a princess and let them see him cook. We were then given a behind the sceens tour of Epcot as well as a ride home in a different van by the manager of the resturant!
I have pictures from this night that I have to find on my computer! It was incredable!
Off to the resort for some rest before heading back to the Hospital in the AM.
Well when we get back the room was filled with baloons, stuffed animals, signed pictures, just SO much stuff! The girls were so excited! they each had a pile of toys with their names spread out in different parts of the room! It was awesome! The girls went to sleep with their new toys as did I.
Next day, Abby feels warm but says she feels okay. We get to DH's room and she falls asleep and her face is blood red. Take her to the ER downstairs, fever of 104.8. We wait 2 hours to be seen and find out she has strep. They give her meds and we are off to get them filled. Well, our insurance would NOT fill them in folorda so $120 down the drain on meds.
Go tback to DH's room. VEry uneventful day. Just hung out with him. Got dinner at McDonalds on our way back to the resort.
Next morning I wake up early to give Abby her meds. 10 minutes later she is sitting up covered in hives and weezing. Rush her back to the ER, she is given meds to stop the reaction and given more meds. More money on meds. Back to DH's room.
The rest of the week we stayed with DH. Day 9 he was discharged. We went to Clear Water so the girls could have some fun on the beach and DH could relax
Next Morning wake up and check out. Half way through our trip, Zoe starts creaming her ear hurts and stuff is comming out. Thick GReen stuff. We stop to get Mortion and wait till we get home to go to the ER.
We get home, go to the ER, busted ear drum with a bad infection
That wraps up our first trip HEre are a few of the pictures i was able to get.
