My boss' told me back in August they wanted to take the boys but weren't sure if they could both get the approved time off, but the Mom got her's and the Dad is 99% sure he got his, so we're going to Disney! I am soooo excited, I have been to Disney 3 times, 1997, 1999, and 2002 and have been dying to go back. It is going to be so much fun with the boys, they will have just turned 3 when we go (the end of February). The best part? It's FREEEEE!

woohoo that is awesome! I want to go to Disney soooo bad but dont think it will ever happen. I have NEVER been and my kids havent either. The year my gpa died and we made a sudden trip to Florida Eric wanted to make the trip a little fun for the kids since it was spent either in the hospital or sitting at my gparents house with Eric while i was at the hospital and he said we would go there but then he decided it was too expensive so we did some little park instead. lol
We may not have it all together, but together we have it all!
April, it is so reasonable to go right now. Two adults plus Lauren for 6 days 5 nights, with park tickets and hoppers, dining plan and hotel in one of the moderate resorts (Port Orleans) was only like $1600. Beats in April when we went it was $2700 at the All Star resort...
I think if you book between now and 12/24, you get awesome deals. AND they let you pay your deposit and then make payments up until 45 days before you are supposed to arrive. That's the ONLY way we could ever afford to go!
We leave on 12/9. SO excited!

Oh thats Awesome...........You will have a Great Time......Last time I went was in 2005 my mom paid for the Entire Trip including Food for four of us to go.
When I first saw you, I was afraid to talk to you. When I first talked to you, I was afraid to like you. Now that I Love you, I'm afraid to lose you.

yeah it is incredibly reasonable. We are actually staying off the resort area about 10 minutes away and renting a van. Our hotel room has 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, full kitchen, tv/dvd player, washer/dryer, plus so many other amenities. For flights, hotel, rental van, and park passes it was around $3,100 for 2 children and 4 adults.
If you book before December and put your $200 deposit down and stay at one of the Disney resorts (any, even value) you pay for 4 nights and get 3 free. We needed a bigger place though.

How awesome!!!! I want to go, i really want to take one of those disney cruises but want to wait until Nicholas is older to really enjoy and remember it, i LOVE disney!!! I think they need to take me as an extra babysitter lol
LOL Shelly, my little sister said the same thing. We were debating about the cruise but Mom had nightmares of them jumping off the side of the ship so we decided against it, I don't think any of us would truly be able to relax on a cruise with them being this young, I think we'd be too worried the whole time. Plus, if they end up get sea sick it will be a LONG week, LOL.
