The trip of many firsts!

Hello all! This will be my first attempt at a trip report, and I must admit I'm pretty nervous. I've been reading trip reports for quite a while, and a lot of them are really good. Anyway, onto the details. Back to the title, this will be our first on property stay!!! We will be at the Contemporary in Tower- Magic Kingdom view room for four nights... June 7th to the 11th. I've always wanted to stay at the Contemporary, and the 40% pin code I got late last year is making it happen. Also, with the first stay, means the first time on the Dining Plan! we've even decided to go deluxe. Finally, this will be our first trip with just our little family. We've been to DW 3 times since our wedding, but we've always gone with friends or other family members. So I can't wait to do what we want to do, when we want to do it!!
As a side note, we will be staying for a week off site at Silver Lake resort for the week following, so we will really have 11 nights in the World during this trip.


Cast of Characters
DH AKA Chris and Daddy (33)
He is a High School English Teacher/ Part time minister
We will be celebrating his recent graduation with his masters degree!
Hawaii 103.jpg
ME AKA Sarah and Mama (31)

DS (5)

This will be his third trip

DS (2)

This will be his second trip, and his last one as a free ride.

I don't know why there is a crying icon on the beginning of my post, I'm still trying to figure all of this out.
