Hi Abbie,
It's my kids 3rd time.
I know someone also from Weymouth who has kept it a secret for almost a year now they go in May and planning to tell them 2 days before they go, a lot of our family dont know we are going yet as they dont understand why we keep going back and have a bit of a dig at us, almost slipped up a few times it is hard as its always on your mind as not to say anything, good luck in keeping quiet.x

I couldn't resist a sneaky little update... under 120 days now!

I was a very lucky girl and was treated to a Lady and the tramp themed Valentines day... me being the lady... at least I hope!



My boyf is currently buying me a classic Disney film on Blu Ray in place of my DVD's for each celebrational holiday. Xmas was Beauty and the beast and of course the newest Lady and the Tramp!

A beautiful card and yummy chocs.. that have been nommed already!... a night in with a takeaway, believe me its a novelty when we both work 24/7 shifts! This = a very lucky lady indeed!

Here is a list of the done's and the to do's so far!

Arrange Bethanys Surprise reveal!
So far this consists of a shoe box wrapped in Disney Princess wrapping paper, a disney Tshirt (yet to find one I like on the net), a mickey coin purse, a Disney Dollars envelope from the Dibb... with a few spending dollars for her, a copy of all the park leaflets and maps (with many thanks to the wonderful Julie116) and a Disney Princess moonpig card explaining all!

There possibly may be more as and if I can find bits for her!
