Hello everyone!! My name is Brittney, and this is my third TR on the Dis!
So first things first, let's talk about meeee!
I am 27 years old, and I am in my first year of Law School! I have been going to WDW since I was 5 years old, and don't plan on stopping anytime soon. I have a Bachelor's degree in History, and work in a frame shop when I'm not crazy busy studying or reading cases.
Up next is my mom, Michele. She is a teacher, and can notoriously be seen around WDW making teacher faces at misbehaving kids... kidding. She does make teacher faces at my dad and I though. She loves Stitch, and her favorite ride is Pirates of Caribbean.
My dad, Billy, has been working for a major oil company for over 20 years. He loves Disney history, and classic Disney rides. He loves the Liberty Belle Steamboat, and the Magic Kingdom train. He's up for a Disney trip anytime I can convince my mom to go!
This trip, like my most recent others in 2013 and 2014, was not easy to make happen for several reasons. First of all, Law School is expensive. With tuition, books, and other miscellaneous expenses I accrue throughout the semester, there isn't too much left over for me to convince my parents to pay for a trip to Disney. However, there is no doubt in my mind that I am meant to be an attorney... as you will see in a minute. Another reason Disney trips are hard for us to take is everyone's schedules don't always mesh up.
However we were all due for a vacation, as 2016 was not the greatest. In August, there was some pretty bad flooding that took place in Louisiana. Many of my friends lost everything they owned, and had to evacuate their homes rapidly. It was a scary few days, and my family even had a close encounter as we thought we were next to be evacuated. We were so lucky, as our home was spared, but unfortunately we lost my grandma a few days after the flooding. August was an awful month, so we all decided we needed a vacation.
These pictures are from a quick trip for supplies mom and I took right before the flooding got bad.
After Halloween, I was determined to convince my mom and dad to take a trip to WDW. They were reluctant and gave a few no's before I worked my magic.
One night, we are eating dinner... and I get on the My Disney Experience App just to play around with dining reservations, when I stumble across a Be Our Guest Dinner reservation. I quickly booked it, and announced "heyyyy I just got a BOG dinner reservation, those are hard to get!"
Mom responds, "omg, what else do they have that week."
See what I did here people? I sparked up the interest...
To be continued.
