We're baaaaaaaaaaaaaaack!!!!!!!!!!
I've had tons of people PM me to see where we have been but we are here and we have booked and let the fun begin.
For starters, here is our family:
There is myself, I am 31 years old, a full time special education teacher, part time online professor for University of Phoenix, devoted mother and wife and DISNEY ADDICT:
There is my wonderful (and halarious, stick around, you'll see throughout this thread as it devlops) husand Tim (32 years old). We've been married for 9 years and he has fallen for Disney just as hard as me and we love planning trips together and writing these reports together.
Here is a pic from this summer:
We have two wonderful adorable children (oh come on, I'm partial : )
Luke (6 years old, in the first grade this year and been going to Disney every year for as long as he can remember, he looks forward to our annual trips) Here is a pic of him after he was super proud trading pins:
Then we have Lauren, our 4 year old Princess. She has been going to Disney with us every year since she was 8 months old, so an annual Disney vacation to her is just standard and she LOVES everything Disney has to offer. Here is our happy princess after her Bippety Boppety Botique experience this summer:
Like I said, we go every year to Disney. I am a teacher so really the only time for us is in the summer. We always go in June because we just can't wait to get to Disney and so we hop on a plane and go as soon as school gets out. This year we decided on June 8-17th.
We JUST booked this week and let me tell you about our decisions.
The new dining plan threw us a bit but after discussing it we have decided to book the regular dining plan - so stay tuned for planning around that when the time comes closer (Man I just LOVE this stuff : )
We had the debate about resorts this year. If you have read our previous TR's you know how much we LOVE the Wilderness Lodge. This past summer we couldn't afford it so we tried POFQ, we just loved POFQ, what a beautiful resort, great transportation, loved the pool, just everything about it:
Tim R-E-A-L-L-Y Loved it
The kids loved it too. But, (there is ALWAYS a but) we really want to return to the Wilderness Lodge, with visions of previous trips there dancing in our heads :
So..................... drum roll please....................... after a lot, and I mean A LOT of discussion we decided to book 9 nights/10 days, Magic Your Way Package with dining (Yum, I'm drooling just THINKING about it) at the Wilderness Lodge this summer from June 8-17th. WE CAN'T WAIT!!!! I booked through AAA again and enjoyed the discount they had to offer. We just booked this week and are so thrilled.
I recently applied (along with 10,000 other people) for the Disney mom's panel, I felt that position was just created for me, it would be my dream to help other mothers plan their Disney vacations with their families. If by some miracle I make it to the next round I would post here for everyone. So pray for me please : )
If you haven't gone on a trip report adventure with us before, Tim and I get a little crazy sometimes:
and Tim is known to write a song or two about our adventures. I take and post a TON of pictures and love discussing all of our plans with you. And come on, WE HAVE CUTE KIDS : )
I can't wait to share our adventures with you, so subscribe, start posting, and let's have some Disney fun!!!!!
