Hello fellow Disers! 
I decided it was time to retire the neverending PTR and start new this year with the hopes that we will make it to our happy place in 2011! If you don't know anything about me, you may attempt to read the neverending ptr, but I wouldn't recommend it!
TheNeverEndingPTR!
It's a sad story of yours truly desperately trying to get back to my favorite place on Earth in the worst year of our life. It turned into a myriad of extensions and overall pitiful wishing. SO! I have decided that I must start anew with more positivity for 2011!
Edited to add that we had a little blip in our plans and although we are well on our way to getting to Disney, we had to buy a vehicle this year and had to push our trip to Jan/Feb. of 2012! I'm squirreling away savings and I KNOW we will make it to WDW in 2012, but unsure if we'll make it in Jan/Feb or if we'll finally get there in Oct.2012. Either way, I know we'll get there!
A little background for you that haven't been lucky enough not to fall prey to the Neverendingptr!...
My dd (then 7) and I went to WDW in 2008 for the first time with a friend and her daughter. I had never been to WDW and was blown away immediately. We fell in love. The only thing missing was my husband and two boys (13 & 14 at the time). We had only ever been on one family vacation for 3 days to the beach and I was determined to go back as a family to WDW!
It didn't take much, when my MIL saw the pictures and heard about the trip, she decided that she wanted us ALL to go to WDW in 2009! Here is the TR, it's a hoot if you have hours of spare time to read it.
OFF WITH THEIR HEADS!!!!!!! Oct 2009 TR
So, we had a wonderful time, but I still had that tug to take JUST our family back to WDW, just the 5 of us. So, the neverending ptr was started and ended after a year+ of planning with no trip. We had a really hard year and came close to losing our home, gave up our car, and really had to start all over.
BUT! Anyone who knows me will say that I have the perseverance of Horton Hatches the Egg, and we're going to make it in 2012!
Welcome to my PTR!!!! It will NOT be neverending if I have anything to say about it this time!
Up next, the WHOS of the trip!

He's a dedicated husband and father, who works is a** off as a truck driver to take care of us. I am so very lucky to have him, he's my best friend and shares my joy in things even when he might not want to. When first introduced to the idea of WDW, he was not interested. He hemmed and hawed about how we didn't have the money(ahem...his mother was paying for most of the 2009 trip!) and he couldn't take off work, but I convinced him that he needed a vacation after all these years (he's NEVER had one) and off we went. 
I can't believe I'll have a 17 year old this summer. *faints*):
Despite being such a killjoy, he seemed to have a great time at WDW and likes the idea of going back. LOVED LOVED LOVED Ohana and insists that we go back, so I have to find a way to get back there! Here he is pushing me out of DHS. It was WAY past half-his-day I guess.
