Hello! This is my first time ever at attempting to write any kind of trip report, but I'll do my best.
To start here's a little bit about my family of three, and our pets, which I consider to be like children, well at least my dogs, not so much my daughters hamster he's more like a cousin or the rabbit, he's like an uncle you love but don't really see much.
Of course there's me, I'm the Disney fanatic of the family. I work full time and spend many hours driving my daughter to and from her activities.
My husband, he is Active Duty (AD) in the Air Force, he is not a Disney fanatic but he goes because he loves seeing me and our daughter happy.
My daughter, who is 11, and diabetic, she's dances and does gymnastics competitively, she is definitely a hard worker and I am so proud of the young lady she is becoming.
Lastly we have 2 dogs, Ozzie a little white malti-poo who acts like a little old cranky man, and Etta a Great Pyrenees husky mix who thinks she is a lap dog, then the hamster-grump-a-lump, and rabbit, thumper.
Our first family trip to WDW was last year, August 2016, before that I hadn't been since 1986 when I was 6. It was a great vacation! I didn't think we'd get to go back for a couple of years, we live in Las Vegas and with DH being AD it's difficult to make vacation plans. In February my DD broke her arm, then re-fractured it in April and had to have surgery to put a plate and pin put in, and on Easter DH was sent to Idaho TDY (work). So I wasn't even thinking about vacation. As summer started, I was a little sad that we didn't have anything planned for vacation, we had talked about going to DL and Universal in California and while that would have worked I wasn't super excited. So I started looking at airfare, randomly here and there and then one night there it was Super cheap AIRFARE!! I did some quick estimates based on our trip from last August and realized we could actually do longer trip, and do WDW and Universal for just about the same as our last trip. I wrote my husband a long text with my estimates asking if we could go back. A few minutes later he replied with a I guess. I was super excited and booked the tickets.
The next day I told DD about the trip and her response was we're going to miss my middle school orientation. I told her that I had been to my middle school and to trust me that she would be okay and would be able to find her classes and locker even though she would miss her orientation.
Next up our resort plans, and planning....
