Hello and Welcome to my Pre-TR where I will be planning the Birthday of all Birthday Celebrations!
We are currently 290 days away from leaving on this little adventure, so I think it's the perfect time to start planning away. Ok, truth be told, I am crazy and think that I'm starting a little late. I mean, after all, I am 10 days late from dancing around because we made it into the 200s on the countdown
Joining in on this little shindig will be
Shannon ... hey, that's me! What? You didn't think I would be a planner without being a joiner did ya? As my Son would say "ppppppppppppplllllllllllllhhhhhhh" (closest thing I could find to a smiley sticking out his tongue ). Ok, back on track ... I am an (almost) 30 year old Work-At-Home-Mom who is borderline obsessed with all things Disney.
Next up is my Hubby
He is my very best friend and partner-in-crime on all the fun shenanigans we get ourselves into. He is 30, but don't tell him I told ya. Apparently he thinks 30 is the new 50 because he is super depressed and acting like he is over the hill now I'd feel bad for him except I'm too busy making fun of him for his craziness on the matter I wouldn't say he is obsessed with Disney but he more than tolerates it and never argues about going back so I'll take it!
And, of course, this trip wouldn't be complete without the Birthday Boy
I know, I know, wrong mouse! But, we were testing out his fear level of things in costume and "rides" before our upcoming cruise next month. And, I figure, if ya ain't afraid of Chuck'E, you ain't afraid of anything
Much better!
Oops, off track again ... That's James and he is the ripe 'ol age of 1 (14 1/2 months if you wanna get technical). We will be celebrating his 2nd birthday on this trip and I couldn't think of a better way to do it
We did the whole big birthday bash with friends and family for his first birthday
While it was fun it was also stressful ... and expensive. I figure we only talk to a small handful of the people invited for holidays (and birthdays) so let's take our money and have a birthday he will never forget (or at least we won't ).
Is it selfish? Yeah, a little. But, we are inviting those handful of people we consistently talk to, so I don't really feel too guilty. I will get to formal introductions if/when those people decide to join for sure. But, they are my parents, Candi's parents, my Sister/Husband/niece (or nephew, not sure yet), Candi's brother/girlfriend and James' Godparents/their kids
If you've enjoyed my ramblings thus far than I hope you will chime in and say Hi! I love having lots of people to bounce ideas off of and get advice. Plus Candi can only handle my Disney chatter a few times a week so I come here to babble a lot
Coming up next: Where and When
