Secrets & Surprises in September 2011

[Guest]

Im starting a pre trippie as the excitement is starting to kill me and keeping the trip a surprise from my 4 kids is getting harder with each passing day! Im Hoping you guys will help keep my secret ?!?

The plan is to tell the kids on The saturday when we leave for the airport on Sunday. It will certaintly make for an interesting and excited weekend

So here goes with the trippie -

WHO?

Me - Chief Planner, cook chaufeeur, packer etc
DH - His heart belongs to Universal but he is slowly turning to Disney
Ben - A typical stropy teen!
Cameron - Our little daredevil - he is scared of nothing and the faster the ride the better.
Daniel - Our little ray of sunshine he can laugh at anything and is so laid back nothing phases him.
Keira - Our little princess - she is Toy story mad and also a little daredevil.



WHEN?

19th September 2011 - 3rd October 2011
Flying Ba from Gatwick for the very first time

WHERE?

WE are staying at Sunset lakes at the amazing villa we stayed in last November. Im hoping with the warmer weather in September we will be able to dip more than a toe in the pool!


The owners of this villa are the nicest people ever and their home really does ooze luxury.

THE SURPRISE!

So we booked the flights way back in January during a sale and as we walked away from the Travel agents decided that we would hold off telling the kids, within a week we had gone from lets tell a fe months before to lets tell them a few days before!
Its been really exciting to be plotting away and they have no idea!

We have made the kids individual cards from Moonpig, the cards reveal that we are off to Wdw and also gives each child a mission to complete.
I have also made enveloped for each one of them which ill contain dollars for them to spend.
Keira has an personalised autograph book that im waiting for delivery on as soon as it arrives ill take pics as it is so cute!

I didnt think the boys would really be into collecting autographs again so I have a few pins for each of them.

Im also in the process of making personalised Candy bags for the MNSHHP party!

Im going to disappear now and sort out some lunch for my little monsters. Ill be back to update my done and to do list for this trip.

Thanks for reading and remember shhhhh its a secret
