Ok, so this is not technically a Mother's Day trip, it's a 2 days after Mother's Day trip. But I consider it my Mother's day gift, because I have wanted to go to Disney World for So long.
I am very excited to be starting my pre trip report!! I just started reading a few others and had to start mine right away! First of all, let me tell you that we have been waiting to go to Disney for years! But... it's always something else.... So you have no idea how EXCITED we are to be going in just 110 Days!!!
I just booked 2 rooms at All Star Movies (preferred view) for May 12-19!
We are going with the 4/3 deal and are so Thrilled to be staying for 7 nights with 7 day tickets!! Now i'm just waiting for park hours to come out so I can plan our park days.
So now on to who we are.
Me: Obviously obsessed with planning this trip! I am a Road Service Supervisor for AAA. I work nights, dh works days, so one of us is always home with the kiddos. Oh, and I cannot wait to have my picture taken with BUZZ LIGHTYEAR!! He's my absolute favorite. I am quite fond of Woody too though. I have not been getting enough sleep over these past few days since we booked the trip, I have been waking up at 5:30 when dh leaves for work and cannot go back to sleep because I am consumed with how amazed my kids are going to be when we get to Disney World!
Dh: He started out not so Happy at all that we were spending a fortune on going to Disney World.......Now, to my delight ,he usually brings it up before I do. He cannot wait to go. He HAS to ride in a Limo to the airport, he already found the one we are going with. I'm not going to complain there.
Anthony: 12, My Stepson. I have been with dh since he was 22 months old, so he knows no different than me being in his life, which turned out good. We have a very good relationship and I love him dearly, and he loves his stepmom. Anthony loves any family vacation, he gets so excited, so he is thrilled to be going to Disney! His favorite character is Donald Duck! I'm not sure if he is going to ride all of the thrill rides..... We have been watching videos on youtube, and he is not very sure.
Emily: 9, My oldest baby girl! She loves Tinkerbell because she loves pretty things. She cannot wait to get to Epcot and pick a pearl. We started looking into all of the countries there because she is also very interested in walking the world showcase, which I think is awesome. She cannot Wait to visit France, she's too funny!
Lizzie: 7, Oh, Lizzie, she has the best personality in the whole world, if we had more Lizzie's in the world, it would be a very Happy Place. Out of all of the kids she is the most excited. She cannot wait to ride Dumbo with me. And she Loves Cinderella. I think she will be the one that is most amazed with everything! I can picture her little face watching Wishes!
Sam: 4, My Baby . Well, she is growing up, but I think we babied her a wee bit too much, and she might have turned into a monster. Maybe just a little. She is a little princess, she loves to wear dresses and look pretty all of the time. But she has another side also. Which is so funny, because she is nothing like my other 2 girls. She Loves Jack Sparrow and Lightening Mcqueen and Tow Mater. Her newest thing is Wall-e. Oh my god, does she love wall-e. It's actually playing as I write this. She cannot wait to meet all of the characters!
My Mom: Yay, I got my Mom to come with us. I didn't have to do much persuading. She LOVES her grandkids and will be in awe watching them enjoy Disney World! We are enjoying talking about all of the planning together and where we are going to eat. She LOVES sunbathing and cannot wait to lay by the pool.
Well an introduction is not complete without pictures, so here they are:
Me and dh on vacation at Seaside Heights in New Jersey.
Anthony
Emily
Lizzie
Sam
My Mom, with her Bday cake the other day. Happy Bday Mama
All of the kids together
The girls being silly together
Well that is who we are! Hope you'll join me!
Next I will post some pictures of the year we went to Orlando, It was March 2005, My youngest was only 11 months old! We did some things around Orlando, and went to the Mk with a 1 day pass. Only....Sam got really sick the night before, we had to take her to the hospital, she had an ear and throat infection. So we got a late Mk start and.... the worst part is that we did not know it closed at 7pm that night. So do you understand why I have been so desperately wanting to take my kids to Disney World. How could you go into the MK for a few hours and be Ok... Well I never was and the only thing that can cure it is this upcoming trip!!!!!!!
