Hello everyone and WELCOME to my first PTR!
All aboard! Please keep your hands and feet inside the vehicle, please remain seated at all times, and enjoy the ride.
When: June 13-18
Where: Disney World, of course!
Why: Graduation and somebodys first trip
Who: Mom, Dad, Jessica, and me
It all started when I got a little letter from my number one. It was quite tragic. Id been waitlisted. The day before wed been making arrangements to fly across country to look at my dream school. The day we were about to book the flight the letter came. It was sad. But when Mom proposed using the airline credits to go to Walt Disney World I was instantly on board!
Your Faithful Crew:
Jessica : My 5 y.o. niece. She lives with us and is basically my little sister. Shes a bundle of joy, plus some tears and tantrums every once in awhile but she is 5. This will be Jessicas first trip to Disney World!! Its a surprise though so shhh! dont tell her. Jessica loves the princesses, Jake and the Neverland Pirates, Doc McStuffins, Nemo, Tangled, pretty much everything Disney. Shes in Kindergarten this year.
Momsy & Popsy: Disney veterans. Theyve both been to Disney countless times (theyve actually lost count). Mom loves Donald and Dad loves well everything. Theyre big fans of the Adventurers Club and quite sad it closed down. It was especially hard on Dad. Dads a biggg Star Wars fanatic (unfortunately were missing Star Wars Weekend by one week). Their last Disney vacation was Aug. 2008 (for the closing of the Adventurers Club).
Me (Grace): Ive been to going to Disney World since I was two years old. A pure-bred Disney fanatic. I collect pins, I love taking pictures and looking at picture of Disney World, its really all I talk about. I love watching Disney movies, listening to the Wishes soundtrack, reading TRs, creeping on my friends Disney pictures. Im obsessed. When Im not obsessing over Disney, or drowning in homework, I play volleyball and softball, and make videos. And scrapbooking.. I love scrapbooking. And Im obsessed with Dance Moms! My last time Disney vacation was Aug 2008 but the last time I was at Disney was Oct. 2010 for my Sweet Sixteen.
Departure:
The week after high school graduation! Being my parents baby this will probably be an emotional trip.
Destination:
The World! Not sure which hotel. Since its sort of last minute trip were going low key low budget (we got a grad party, and soon college to pay for!).
Either All-Star, Art of Animation, or The Buena Vista Palace Hotel & Spa. Mom and Dad stayed at Buena Vista a couple of times and really really like it there. Personally Im a fan of staying on property, but thats just me.
Now that we covered the who, when, and wheres back to the story!
So a dreary letter leads to a brilliant idea on Moms part... Disney! When Mom told my sister we want to go to D-I-S-N-E-Y and Jessica says Mimi? Did you say Dissssnnneyyyy?! try as she did to deny it she may have ruined the surprise. But Jessicas young so were thinking shell forget.
We booked the flights that night, getting in at 11am on the 13th and flying out at 9pm on the 18th, we give ourselves a nice six days and five nights. Hotel planning will happen sometime in the near future (hopefully my pick will win). Right now the deal extends until June 12, so Im assuming that on Apr. 1 they will put out a deal from June 13 thru August that will be perfect for us. At least Im hoping they will!
Mom and I will be the head planners for the trip, as we usually are. Dad will go with the flow but make sure his few demands are met. And Jessica will just be so surprised when we wake her up and tell her shes going to Disney!
More soon!
