Planning a Disney trip without the kids knowing....



yeah, it's both a lot of fun and a LOT of stress, lol. I hate having secrets, I am the worst person to keep secrets away from the people I love, especially my kids so keeping this away from my kids for this long has been hell! I have 7 more days to go and then we can let the cat out of the bag. Trip has been planned, everything has been booked, dinners have been reserved and most breakfasts and lunches also. It is our first trip to Disney World and I feel all I'll be doing is eat eat and EAT! Is that was most people do when they go to Disney do, EAT?

But it will be so much fun and so worth it to see the look on their face. See, to give you guys the back story, those who do not know, my husband won the Showcase Showdown on the Price is Right last year and due to being deployed we missed out on going on the trip he won to Ireland. The awesome people at CBS told us that we had 8k to play with, we could pick any place in the world, just name it and they would make a trip for us. We thought about trip for the two of us to Paris, or some exotic place. Then I though, why not surprise the kids with a trip to Disney World as they have not had a vacation EVER and they have missed their daddy for a year now. So I asked the great people at CBS if that was possible, if they could make a great package to Disney World for all four of us instead of just the two of us. Of course that was no problem, and since we had so much money to play with and we were not traveling overseas we are able to go rather grand, stay in a Deluxe Resort in the Park, get upgraded room, get deluxe dining package etc, so the only thing we need to think of is tips and souvenirs! We haven't told the kids a THING! Been able to keep the lips tight locked on this one for almost four weeks now which is a monstrous record for me alone!

We wont tell them a thing until the morning off. They think we have to drive their grandma to the airport, but there we are going to hand them a letter that says, "we are going to Disney World" and video tape the reaction, lol. I can't wait to see it, I just can't wait!! I don't know if I can't wait those seven days we have left!!!! I'm about to burst.......
