So here's the deal.... it's time to hang up the bachelor days and make my beautiful GF my official one and only!
So here's the pertinent details... and I am open to suggestions from the experts.
The weekend of May 3rd we will be heading down to run the Everest Challenge together. We are turning this into a family event and her mother and father will be joining us along with her brother and sister-in-law since we also decided to make this a trip for her beloved niece (Age 5) and nephew (Age 7) can have heir first Disney Trip!
We will be arriving along with her mother and the kids on Friday morning... the rest of the gang won't get there until late that Friday Night. Thus, Saturday is our prime option.
We are saving Magic Kingdom until Saturday since we want the parents to be able to be there when her niece (a Disney Princess addict) gets to finally experience it. The plan is to do MK the entire day before we leave the group to get ready for our race around 7 PM that evening.
Other very important details:
- My sister is a CM at Hollywood Studios at the management level... so she has some clout to help coordinate something cool with advance preparation.
- The one stipulation I have been forewarned by my GF is there better be photographs taken of the proposal whenever it finally happens. My sister ttold me she can get a Fast Pass photographer for us "no problem".
- I want it to be memorable but not "hokie". No horse drawn carriage, costumes, or big spectacles. I would prefer as intimate of a moment as possible.
One idea I had was to try to coordinate "Custom clues" during our race that culminate with me proposing at the finish line.The problem with that is she would kill me if she was all sweaty and frazzled when this all went down. So that one is out of the question.
Come on Dis-Boarders..let's see what you got!
