Hi Everyone!!!!
I wanted to stop in and say hello! I have decided nothing! And in fact talking with Andy in the car this weekend has made things worse... (not surprisingly, as he always seems to do that to my plans....)
Sooooo Andy isn't sold on being in Disney on Morgan's birthday. He thinks it might cause more "problems" than it's worth, plus in order to do that, the girls would have to be out of school the entire week right after spring break, which is weird. We talked about leaving mid-week of there break, doing Wednesday to Wednesday trip. But I don't like that only because, they girls will have to go to school the day and really they need a rest day before heading back or we have to fly out mid day and that always feels like a waste of a disney day. You know?
So, I am not ruling it out completely but i am starting to wonder if I should go back to looking at the time in Feb. when the girls have a 4 day weekend. With this, we could fly out Thursday last afternoon and fly home late Saturday or early Sunday to have enough time to recuperate. I am at this immediate moment am leaning this way, too, because I feel like it might to mean to go so close to Morgan's birthday and NOT be there. I was also thinking about how we will have to wait through basically the WHOLE winter before we go. We have really started to like going in Feb to break up the winter.
I am thinking I might make a couple "scenarios" And hten when pricing is released, I can add costs to it. And I am guessing that, that will help make the decision a bit easier. But I don't know if I will have time! Between work and another busy weekend coming up...
I also was thinking of making a questionaire and have all of the family answer. Put a whole slew of questions in there so as to not tip anyone off to any plans... We will see....
In other news, I was able to meet up with
@ariane37 this weekend! We had a great time! And it def will not be the last time!

I have only met two people from the dis but both dis-meets have been fantastic! We are a great group of people!
I hadn't paid too much attention to when Spring Break is but Jason wants to do the Star Wars so we'll be going in early April when Casey thankfully has a day off from school too.
Man, I wish early April would work for us. We do need to get the little ladies together.
. I like your plan with park during value resort and resort days when you’re at deluxe resorts. That’s my plan too. If I can suggest, keep deluxe last so you’re not downgrading when you go from deluxe to moderate. Does that make sense? It’s a tip someone gave me on here last year so I thought I would pass it on to you. If it doesn’t work for your plans, then forget I said it!
I know... I think about that alot. But I like the "idea" of truly resting in the middle of the week. Sure, we will be tired at the end of the trip as well. But I don't know if I can handle not being in a park on our last day or two... But nothing is set in stone yet.
I def wouldn't go back to a value after being at a deluxe. French Quarter was nice enough for us, And I think we would be "OK" going to that after the Poly. We have been to both, so we would know what to expect.
But I totally get the logic... And maybe we will. I am not ruling it out.
We've never been in April but we have been in March and it was insane with all of the spring break crowds. ((Never again will I go in March))
I feel like the moral of the story of this so far, is not to go in March...
Yay!! Let us know how awesome it is!
Ha! See above...
I don't think there's any restaurant where they won't let a 10 year old order off the kids' menu if she doesn't want anything on the adult's menu. The only thing I've heard is that sometimes they may require her to get a larger adults' sized portion of whatever she wants from the kids' menu, and that they'll charge you an adults' price for it
I think I would be ok with that. I do find sometimes the kids meal is too small for her. I am going to have to review the menus really closely this time around. As I think the biggest problem will be that the adult menus won't appeal to Morgan.
How awesome!!!! Though gotta say I may be a little jelly
We had a fun time!
I agree that a park birthday-day is the best! And I kinda think CRT would be special. Maybe try for a later dinner and request a window seat? The view of the fireworks from inside is amazing, and they play the music.
So, I am thinking of maybe making a family "questionnaire" And have everyone fill it out... Ask a whole bunch of questions about a bunch of trip scenarios and what not...
If you're wanting to book early June 19 is the day packages are released. I know of 6 families looking to book that day; late fall 2019 is gonna be slammed... Get Andy on board quick!
I know! Andy is NOT on board yet! We will def be no later than April weekend. So, I am hoping it won't be too back and/or crazy booking that portion of the year...
