Why Can't my husband ever get exciting?

[DISNEYaddict4evr]

So here we are leaving in 5 nights and my husband still is not excited about out trip... this is him and this is me .

This upcoming trip is our one-year wedding anniversary trip, the actual date is Aug 25th, but who wants to go to Disney then? Not this girl! My husband is usually just along for the right on our vacations, I do all the planning , as I can only asume all of you do as well, I mean why would we be on the DISboards right .

My honey is like your. But after #).9almost 15 years I have come to acceptance. I just tell him where and when and he shows up. He follows my plans.

He would complain with your first night.

Arrival at 3:45 pm. And a dinner at 7:30 is leaving no transition time from travel to vacation... leaving at least 90 minutes for travel time, checking in... and you won't have your luggage right away you go look at your room and you are going to have to leave to get to that reservation.

Will you be OK with the time frame or will you be stressing on making it on time---which will drive himcrazy---lol

We will be at the party the same night as you!!!

Hubby and I call Tampa home (he's in the Army and we live in Texas) and are heading back this FRIDAY!! We are driving so we'll get to my moms house Sat night! Then his dad comes in Sunday and Dh, DS, Mom, Sis, Dh's Dad, and I all head to Disney on Wednesday!

Now...I've been with John long enough to know that he's Very excited...he just isn't giddy like me, lol. We were talking about our favorite rides and he said his are Pirates (I Def knew that) and Splash Mountain (!!? Had no idea). Anyways, he won't SAY he's excited...but his is. His dad, on the other hand, he'll shout from the rooftops that he's going and is excited! Lol

I plan on taking our luggage with us on ME. I will have been up since 5am and my hair with need to re"foofed" before dinner . I do know we will be cutting it tight though. We initially were arriving at 2pm but stupid United cancelled a flight so it is what it is. They day we leave is even worse. I think I am going to start being loyal to Delta, United always seems to screw me over. Per him getting bummed about how quick of turn around times we have, he will have to live since we are going to DisneyQuest for him, now me. Last time we went here I made him leave early. So this time we will not be leaving until he has had his fill. I am going to be bored out of my mind, with the exception of the Virtual Jungle Cruise. If we are there more than three hours I might excuse myself to go shopping I don't think I will be stressing out, maybe not, should I be stressing out?? hehehe

WOW, that is big group...to fun! Are you dressing up? We are doing simple costumes this trip. Hubby will be Bob a.k.a Mr. Incredible;e (bought him a incredibles t-shirts) and I will be stitch with my ears and good/bad meter t-shirt with a red collar.

I suppose you could be right, I know he has been stressed out with work. Hopefully I see a bit more giddyness on Thursday.

I am so excited for you...And your hubby
Your trip sounds wonderful! Happy Anniversary!! Have an amazing time celebrating!!

Thanks for being the first I hope the trip goes well. We banked up quiet a bit of hubby vacation time, so he is in the hole until 2016.

Thanks for all of the responses, it is nice to chat with fellow DISfans

I am excited for you! And your trip plans are def more relaxing than mine! I am arriving on Thursday 9/26 and leaving Monday so I am trying to fit in as much as I can. My fiancee saw the schedule and was like "woah that is a lot". But he is going to do his best to make it work.

Btw we are getting married next August and will probably do our anniversary trip to Disney a month later too! F&W is the best ! I thought it would be odd to celebrate a month later but now I know I am not a lone. You have given me a lot of ideas for a more relaxing trip next time

Congratulations on your engagement! Where will your honeymoon be?

I have heard horror stories about crowds and heat in August and was like no way would you catch me down there. Plus Fall just has so much more going on. This will be my first time not hitting a park everyday... we shall see how I cope .

My Dh is the same way. We've been married 11 years, so I've gotten over even wanting him to be excited. He does get excited maybe the day before we leave or the day we leave, but even then you can't tell to look at him that he's excited. I've found Disney friends along the way that I can be excited with. We will get there a couple days before you. I started packing last weekend.
