Yes the two experiences can't get much more different! All our family plus sister in law and her hubby and 2 daughters next time, just the two of us this time. Looking forward to both and feeling very lucky to have 2 countdowns on the go.

Had a chat with sis in law on Thursday and gave them a list of things to save for. I think they had a minor heart attack 😳 but her youngest girl is only 4 at the moment and madly into Frozen so was super excited about everything! Really looking forward to sharing the experience with family and getting them hooked on a very expensive addiction 😄

We are taking our (will be) 4 year old for first time too next year - if she us anything like me I sense lots of ganging up on DH to 'persuade' him to keep going back!

Well I thought I would update today with a few of the shopping items we have bought so far for the holiday. I don't think there is much left to get, I am trying to resist and pack light so I can buy lots when there

First up, some pretty wedges from Kurt Geiger in Newcastle for £45


Boring but necessary pool shoes. Curse you Mike Ashley for being cheap and cheerful, I don't want to give him any of my hard earned money and no I don't want a strong shopping bag to go with these...


Next shorts in size 10 (woo hooo thank you Weight Watchers) from Metro Centre £25.


Gap shorts from Dalton Park, I think these were £20.


A couple of vest tops, the grey one from Gap at Dalton Park for £5 and the black one from Oasis in Newcastle for £10.


Camisoles with adjustable straps from Matalan and H&M, both £3.


Primark at the Metro Centre, Harry Potter t shirt £6.


Bikini from M&S at the Metro Centre, don't remember how much this was.


And we also bought some stuff for DH! A new baseball cap from Debenhams at the Metro Centre.


And a park bag from Superdry in Metro Centre, £20.


He did get more than this, I just haven't bothered taking pics and you don't get to see pics of new undies!

So the suitcases came down from the loft this morning. I think we will be seriously under the luggage allowance, but that leaves plenty of SHOPPING ALLOWANCE

Thanks for reading!

I love your plans, especially a night at the Bohemian hotel, we very nearly booked there for our trip this year. We just got too good of a deal in the Yacht Club to turn down but I would love to stay in Celebration!

I think it's such a romantic idea, renewing your wedding vows! It's our 10th wedding anniversary in 2017 as well and was something I was hoping to do.

Your trip will soon be here! X

Yes the countdown is looking very nice now! Celebration is lovely, isn't it? Plan on doing a trip report so will include info on the vow renewal when we discuss it with the wedding planner at the Bohemian.

Spray tan Wednesday. Hopefully I won’t smell like a biscuit….and the end result should look more like this:


And not like this:
