Newbie to the Boards 36 days until the World

We got our passporter in May for my birthday, Planned our trip in Febuary, and just now did I have time to stop in and say hello. Our family (me 31 DW 24 DS 20 months DS 7 months) is going on our first family VAcation, AND first trip to WDW Via Amtrak's Pennsylvanian and Silver meteor Trains leaving our home town of Latrobe at 8:11 ion Oct. 24th and returning Nov. 2.

As far as "the book" goes, I've read it cover to cover at least 25 times, filled in our pockets, scribbled aimlessly on the pages, Made dinner reservations, planned something for our anniversary in WDW (ours is OCT. 15) And became "The disney know it alls" at our jobs.

Hopefully we can learn, or teach something through this boards, and if nothing else, Meet other people who are going to see the mouse. And of course brag about our vacation...
