Walt Disney World - Here We Come!

I am so pumped (and not just because I'm eating a caramel Drumstick)! We are planning our first vacation for when Stonewall gets home. The conversation pretty much when like this:

"Stonewall, you are going to be just getting home from Iraq. What do you want to do next?"

"I want to go to Disney World." (corny celebration music and clapping in the background.)

No, I'm serious. That's pretty much how it happened.

So we're going to Disney World around the end of October! I am psyched!

Stonewall and I are going to be spending a week in Sarasota before we head down to WDW where we'll be meeting up with Danielle and Erick (SIL & BIL). We've decided to stay at Port Orleans - French Quarter.

Have I mentioned how completely stoked I am about this trip?!

Here are some photos from Spring Break 2004 when Carsley and I went to WDW:





What's with those glasses?






And here are some photos when I went to WDW with the fam in 2005:






Arrrgh! Lanky Nibs Hampton and Scurvy Legs McGee!







This is one of my favorite pics...EVER! One of us would lay on the ground while the other three posed above the cameraman, so we could get the Epcot sign. With it being night and not having a good camera (or photography skills, for that matter) we couldn't get a good shot of the sign from far away. By the time we were finished there were about a dozen other families sprawled out on the ground. Classic!

Can I just tell you how jealous I am?! I haven't been since I was in 4th grade. I'm dying to go back, but I just don't know when I'll get there. I'd love to go while Scott is still in the Army so we could take advantage of the military discount deal... but he only has a few months left and we are trying to pay for our wedding... so it's just not going to happen. I'm going to have to live vicariously through you! So please keep us updated on the planning and the trip! :)

Oh I'm so jealous! I haven't been to WDW since 2004. If you're there in October you MUST go to the Food and Wine Fest in Epcot. I've heard it's amazing!

I actually had this very conversation with my husby just a week ago:p We had thought about going to Gatlinburg, TN for for our Anni but have since decided to go to Disney World! It just sucks trying to get dates together when you have the military to think about:p Loved the pictures!
