My Blog Pre-Trip Report Sept 25th - October 3rd...

Staying at ASMO

Me- Christine (25) a newfound Disney LOVER

DH- Keith (he's 24 and a Airman in the United States AirForce) He dosen't care where we go...He just hates being stationed in Virginia

DD-Lyric Our oldest and a DIVA she will be 6 the day we leave

DD-Journey, our baby girl, shes 3 and the quiet 1.

Our Twins- Harrison & Peyton who turned 1 today!!! 7/31


I wasn't going to do a Pre-Trip report but decided that since I update my blog almost everyday it would be fun to include our Pre-Trip report and our Trip report and then pass the link along.

I hope it's ok that I am blogging and doing this??

On my blog, Me talking about Disney starts from the very 1st time I blogged back in May, Hope you enjoy...I am not very creative lol!

Johnson Party of 6

I'm so glad you started Christine. Love the names of your babies. I cannot fathom why anyone would not love to be stationed at Langley. I bet we've passed by each other 100 times in the commissary. Looking forward to hearing more about your trip. Hurry back.

This trip came about when we went on our last trip back in April 2009 and I made the mistake of asking my Mother in Law (Whom I love Dearly) to come along. I had posted on here that she made a comment that she wouldn't want to be at the parks alot because she was 42 and to old to walk the parks all day Needless to say I already knew that trip was going to be a bust. We had a good time but I felt I was cheated and the day we went to Magic Kingdom and saw that Castle I knew I was home.

I came home and got to it right away we were all set for December but that was to long away, so back on the I was checking for November but that was to long so we decided on October but what the heck...Free dining ends the 1st week of Oct so why not go then! Before we knew it were booked for Sept 25th and only had a good week before adr's had to be made!

I have fallen in love with this site and am head over heels in love with Disney....I think my husband is jealous

Free dining is just so great, so how could you pass that up!

BTW I'm 51 and still enjoy walking around all the parks, so I just can't understand your DMIL.

Enjoy your trip! Is Langley that bad? I moved to TX from VA. Granted, we weren't stationed anywhere, but I LOVE VA. I miss it very much. We are stationed at Fort Hood now after my DH joined the Army as a chaplain in June '08. TX is way too hot for me! Your ADRs look good!

It's NOT that bad, It would be different if we weren't stationed so close to family....thats the problem lol.

We lived in Texas, Sheppard AFB in Wichita Falls and loved it! Miss it!

Paid In Full Today

After much debating I booked BBB for my daughters! It will be a surprise and I am so excited to do it. They won't get the full package as I doubt they will walk the parks in the dresses but they will LOVE getting their hair, nails and makeup done. I am so excited! Yesterday we had my twins cookout/Birthday party....a Mickey theme of course and they loved it! Crazy that they love Mickey and Disney just as much as I do!!
