Disney World

I got the idea in my head a few months ago, that depending on how much I got back from my tax refund, that I wanted to take the boys to Disney World. After getting my money back, figuring out how much was going into savings, and how much was needed for the things I needed to buy, I then looked at how much I had left to see if it was doable.

When I first started exploring, the price was a little steep, which I guess is to be expected. I mean, I'm sure it wasn't really a bad deal, just more than I had planned on. I'd been hoping to drive and stay w/a friend, but the staying w/a friend fell through and driving sounded more and more like a bad idea the longer I thought on it. So, I'd almost given up after getting my first few quotes, bc I knew how much I was and was not willing to spend. And, the quotes I'd found were just not something I was willing to pay. But, I kept looking and tweaking things, and almost cut the cost in half. Originally I was planning on a 4day trip, staying in Disney so we didn't have to rent a car, and doing 2days in the park. What I ended up doing was renting a car, staying out of Disney, and going to Disney 1day and Seaworld another day. I really think the boys will enjoy the variety more than 2days at Disney, and I found some really good deals that I just couldn't pass up.

So, I'm excited to say that March 29th through April 2nd, the boys, my mom, my sister Charity, and I will be going to Florida for a vacation!! I'm SOOO excited :D It's kinda like an early bday present to myself, and I must say I'm THRILLED to be able to have this memory w/my boys! This will be their 2nd year of going skiing w/Shaun and his family, which J talks about and remembers as if it was yesterday. It's something he really enjoys. I'm hoping that this will be a memory that years from now, he'll still be talking about!
