Getting Ready for Disney World

For as long as I can remember we have promised our kids that one day we would take them to Disney World. Finances have always prevented us from keeping our promise... until now. A couple of weeks ago we surprised them with the news that we will be leaving for Disney World in just a few short weeks. They are excited... almost as much as I am!

I wanted to start a blog just for our Disney Chronicles.... to keep a journal of the day to day planning and then ultimately the day to day adventure of Disney.

Easter is this Sunday. We have gotten the kids each a "tin bucket" basket with Disney characters on them. We have Mickey eggs we plan to stuff money in for them along with a couple of other Disney related items.

I also am planning to pack a back pack for each child to carry on the trip. Each backpack will have Disney toys and coloring books to keep them occupied while riding twelve hours to and from the World.

One cute moment in our planning stage so far: My daughter is nine and has recently told me that she has outgrown the Disney princesses. That was heartbreaking for me as I have lived vicariously through her the past few years. While explaining to her about the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique at Disney World, I asked DJ if she were too old for that too. She replied, "MOMMA, A GIRL IS NEVER TOO OLD FOR GLAMOUR!" LOL

I have been washing clothes all week and hope to start packing this weekend.

Lookout, Disney World! Here we come!!! THE WORLD MAY NEVER BE THE SAME AGAIN!
