Hi All 
Welcome to my 2nd PTR
! You can check out my 1st PTR HERE! I have never gotten around to doing a TR, but maybe in 2011 I'll get around to doing one as well.
So here's our Cast!
I'm Jaclyn, I'm 26, I am currently a SAHM. Next year when DD is in school full time I will pursue a career in teaching (hopefully, last year things weren't looking too good for NJ teachers). I graduated last year but we decided to wait until DD was in school all day, as she is only half day K right now and we don't have anyone to watch her. Likes: Spending time with family, the beach, any and all things Disney, cake decorating, and relaxing on the couch with some Ben and Jerry's and watching a movie
Me and Scott last year at Chef Mickeys (yes he really is that white lol)
Scott, 28, is a manager at Home Depot. He's a hard worker, but on his days off he likes to watch Football (typical lol) or play, you guessed it -- Madden. He also likes so spend time with his family and watch other sports too including baseball, hockey, and the WWE. Here he is last year with his female entourage:
I have to hand it to him, he really is a good sport, he was excited about wearing the shirt too lol.
And finally....our daughter....
Alanna, 5 is a kindergarten student. She really enjoys school, but also loves coming home to play with her Snoopy and American Girl dolls. She also loves to play school and enjoys spending time with her awesome cousins. We had some medical issues with Alanna last year right before we left for our trip. She wasn't eating too much, was hospitalized in June, and was losing weight. Our GI told us to go, but while in Disney things were not getting better. She was developing facial tics, she was eating but it would take her an hour to finish a meal, she wasn't herself. When we came back from Disney she developed bronchitis and was starting school in 2 weeks. In 5 days we met with 3 different doctors, our ped, our GI doc, and a neurologist. The neurologist didn't see anything wrong while doing routine exams but wanted her to go for an MRI and we had one scheduled for the friday after her 2nd week of school. She went to school and within a week EVERYTHING stopped! She was eating normally, no facial spasms, acting wonderfully. Our ped said it was probably such strong anxiety about going to school for the first time. Thankfully she is doing wonderfully now, she has gained 5lbs since Sept
After we met with the neurologist is all made sense b/c she went for screening at the school at the very end of May and then everything started right before my birthday on June 8th. Just so thankful and happy things are back to normal and she is fine. And as I mentioned before she LOVES school, looks forward to going everyday. The school was so wonderful too with helping her transition into it. I am so thankful she is in such a nice school with such great teachers and guidance counselors who were there to help and listen when we really weren't sure what was going on with our daughter.
Here she is as her favorite character
So we are setting out to Disney for our yearly trip, BUT we are also (finally) getting married on August 6th so we are celebrating call this our DISNEYmoon with family.
"With family?" you ask. YES! B/c my aunt, uncle, and their three boys are coming too and we are trying to get my mom, sister and dad to come along. This is a struggle every year, we always are trying to get them to go and last minute they usually do come but its a pretty funny battle b/c I know my mom wants to go but by nature she is a just a nervous wreck about everything. You see, when me and Scott began our planning for our wedding we originally were planning a Disney Wedding with just parents, grandparents, brothers, sisters, and then my aunt and her family b/c she is like my sister. But I started thinking about how would *I* plan a vacation for 20 people and a wedding, and I got so overwhelmed! And Scott's grandfather wasn't going to come and I wasn't sure about my grandfather and brother either.
So where we stand now is:
Getting married here at the Jersey Shore on 8/6/11
Leaving NJ for WDW (road trip!) on 8/18
Arriving at CBR in the afternoon/early evening on 8/19
and checking out on 8/26.
I am SUPER excited! Happy planning everyone!! Let the magic begin!

Can't wait to read about all of your plans!
I check out the wedding board every once in a while. I was on there last night and found a link for really cute bride and groom shirts from the 
but i guess thats just not dressy enough huh? LoL
with free dining and park hoppers.
. We were with the photographer a little longer than planned so I came home and quickly started our meal. And this was pretty much thrown together rather quickly, its usually a little more elaborate lol. 
But with all this...I am SO happy that January is almost over!
So...the owner was left with the dress she had ordered. I was the only one who tried it on and that dress is mine....and we got 30% off of it. And its funny b/c the dress basically fits, I just need the bottom hemmed b/c Im so short. Of course the dress is a secret, only mom, sis and aunt have seen it (and Alanna but she was so busy trying on veils I don't think she really cared lol). But its so hard to keep the dress a secret from Scott, I have a pic on my phone of me in the dress and I just want to show him, but just can't do it, he needs to be surprised!
. Seriously, when I was 16 I was fanatical, I even got to meet him. So thats the plan for tonight. Hope everyone is having an enjoyable weekend...and to sleep in LOL. 
I'm glad you eventually got it all worked out, even though it did take forever!
