So I've been a lurker on here for a few years, but I've decided to change that and actually post! I realize that my vacation isn't for over 8 months still, but I am so excited about it that I just can't wait to post! So I'm going to post all my plans too and would love your advice and tips and comments!
So I'm DeDe. I've been to Disneyland a total of 4 times (when I was 10, when I was 17, when I was 20, and in 2009-when I was 29). I will be 35 by the time we take our trip in December. I love Disney. I love all the movies and I love Disneyland. I wish I could afford to go to Disneyland every year - but alas that hasn't happened for me. I just love the magic of Disney so much. Can't wait for this magical 5th Trip!
Then there's my DH (Joey) who is my best friend. He has been to Disneyland once - with me in 2009. He hates crowds but tolerates them for me. He enjoys Disney movies and the rides are just okay with him - but this trip was mostly his idea!
My oldest is JJ (12) - he is autistic and loves Disney - especially Star Wars and Cars. This will be his second trip to Disneyland and he has a hard time with crowds and such, but really wants to see CarsLand and do the Jedi Academy.
My daughter Beth (will be 9 in April) is the ultimate Disney princess. She still loves dressing up as the princesses and loves all the movies. I dread the day when she will be "too old" for this princess stage of her life. She loves Anna and Belle the best.
So this is my family in Disneyland in 2009 (Goofy's Kitchen):
It will be over 5 1/2 years since then when we go in December so a lot has changed with us! Here is us now:
