|  I think I’m Going a Little Overboard...Pre Trip Report!! I think I’m out of control with the whole planning thing?!?!  Cast: Me 40 (Nutcase), DH 42 (Chubby), DS 19 (Free Spirit), and DD 14 (Ms. Popular) When: August 26-September 1 Where: WDW Wilderness Lodge - Woods view (first time at WL...so excited!!) Why: We were originally going because my husband and I just graduated (him with an MBA, and me with a B.A.). But now, it’s because he just got an AMAZING NEW JOB!!!  He interviewed for one job, but they offered him another. He is now an Executive at a Fortune 500 company. His bonus alone will be twice what I make in a year. Needless to say, I’m going a little crazy with the planning thing. My DH calls me “Nutcase” whenever we talk Disney. He just doesn’t get it!  Anyway, my DH a.k.a. “Chubby,” loves massages. So, I just made a booking at Mandara Spa at the Dolphin.  On our last day September 1, prior to our High Tea reservations at the Grand Floridian. I booked Chubby a Deep Tissue massage, for Free Spirit a Swedish massage, and for me & Ms. Popular a Mother & Daughter Paradise Massage. One our arrival day (8/26), we will check out WL, and then walk over to Ft. Wilderness. Ms. Popular is an animal freak, so I thought she would enjoy seeing the petting zoo and the horses. Then we’ll have a late dinner at Spoodles. Day 2 (8/27), we’ll park hop. I thought we would catch lunch in DTD at Earl of Sandwich (one of my favorites). And then at 7:00 pm, it’s off to the Hoop-Dee-Doo Revue for a fantastic evening of slap stick humor. Believe it or not, DS “Free Spirit” loves the Hoop-Dee-Doo. He’s 19, and didn’t want to go on our last trip. He said it sounded “stupid,” but when I started planning this trip, he asked if I would please include it again.  Day 3 (8/28), park hop again, and then lunch at Sci-Fi. I thought the Sci-Fi would be a great break from the August heat. It’s so dark and cool, and I just love the drive inn theme. Then off to the Pirate & Princess Party at the MK.  DAY 4 (8/29), no parks! We decided to take a day off from the parks and sleep in. When we do get up, I thought we would go over to OKW and rent bikes for an hour to check out the resort for a future trip. Then off to the Poly to rent Sea Raycers before a late lunch at Ohana. Then I thought we would go to Ft. Wilderness for the Sing-a-long with Chip and Dale, and then watch whatever movie is playing. Day 5 (8/30), park hop with a late dinner planned at Boma. Day 6 (8/31), park hop with a late dinner planned at California Grill for the fireworks.  Day 7 (9/1), no parks. Last day...time to go home. Massages planned and High Tea at he GF. I seemed to kinda fizzle out there at the end?? I feel like I need to plan more, but then I feel over planned at the same time...maybe I am a Nutcase! MUST PLAN MORE...

| Congrats on graduations and DH's new job! Your plans look great. Have you considered the water parks? Your kids are old enough to really enjoy them. Have fun we'll be leaving right before you get there.
