We are really going!!

I can't believe it. We are really going to WDW. I just finished paying for our surprise trip today.. I booked this trip in February and thought for sure it would be paid in full before now, but things happened. I needed new tires and brakes on my car. Then my husband got new tires on his car......then he bought a new car the beginning of the month, so that required a bit of funds for the down payment.....then last week our hot water heater died on us! I was ready to cancel our vacation.....my husband called me silly and said no worries it would be paid in full on time and no we were not going to cancel or change resorts. Low and behold he told me an hour ago to pay the rest off. We are really going to WDW. Our kids have no idea, and I am dying to tell them. I just have a few more weeks to hold on and then before I know it we will be on our way to the airport and I will finally be able to spill the beans....WE ARE GOING TO DISNEY
Maybe I will finally start a PTR now... Everything finally feels real.
