Hi everyone I'm Lisa and I am married to Chris and we have a beautiful daughter named Aspen... Here we are last yr are WDW.
So we started a tradition last year of even though none of us have a birthday the exact time we go to disney we still celebrate like it is all our birthdays... Chris my DH's b-day is in aug, mine is in sept, and my DD's is in oct! It was a blast last year and we really did celebrate, and as soon as we got home I started planning this years!
With 12 months to plan you think I would have it all done but nope .... not even close! We started saving and we knew we wanted ASMo(so I thought) and at first we only wanted it to be the 3 of us.... BOY did that change! About May we decided to drag my DH's little bro he will be turning 16 in Nov .... he's thrilled to go. And then last night in a whirl wind my best friend for many years decided she wanted to go too. So her with a birthday in dec., her son turning 3 in jan, and (possibily) her boy-friend who has a b-day in feb will be having a "Birthday Bash" with us at the world.....
All of that is great but not nearly as great as while on the phone and online booking my friends vacation I got a Pin Code to have a free upgrade from the All Star Movies resort to either Saratoga Springs or Old Key West either a studio or one bedroom!!!! R U SERIOUS!!!! I was jumpinng up and down shaking the whole house (I'm a big ole' girl to be jumping is a big deal) so we upgraded to 1-bedrooms at Saratgoa Springs!!!!!!!!!!!
NOw the hardest part I have yet to even start to mention getting everyone dining.... hmmmm... what to do .... my dining is already done ..... i got exactly everything i wanted ...... hmm do i change mine to fit my friends in ..... nope not enough room ..... hmmm WHAT DO I DO...........
come back later and I'll tell you what we decide!
