SOOOO not planned trip TR!!!

OK so things have been a little crazy around here because we decided to put our house up for sale. I know that putting the house up for sale is not crazy but we did it earlier than planned for 1 reason. Our back door neighbors have had their house for sale for over a year and we did not want that to happen to us so we put it even though we had not found anything yet.

WELL guess what our house sold in 3 months. With no place to go we have just moved in with my DM. She has plenty of space in her house so we have no problems there.

Here is why this is a SOOOO not planned trip TR. While in the process of moving, putting furniture to storage, some stuff to my mother's house. You guys know how it is all a little crazy when you are moving. Well during all this crazy stuff our best friends had planned a trip to WDW for 8 days. They were staying off property(which I have not done in years), renting a 4 bedroom house with some other friends of ours.

There trip was planned for 3/29-4/7. On Sunday(4/1), they call my DH begging him to pack all our stuff and drive on over to WDW. So Sunday night guess what my DH asks me??? "They called and asked us to come stay with them for a few days, what do you think we should do???" You all know what my reply to that was. LET'S GET PACKING!!! I pretty much had one day to pack because my DH decided he wanted to leave for WDW on Tuesday(4/3).

Now I usually have no problems with this but things at my DM house weren't all in their place just yet. So that was another crazy part. I had no DSL since 3/26 so I couldn't even share with you guys that we were getting ready for this soooo last minute trip.

So after finally packing everything up...

This is were my TR actually starts...

Re: SOOOO not planned trip TR!!!

I am so sorry...my computer died on me and I couldn't turn it back on. I finally got it up and running again. The only bad thing is that I had done all of Tuesday and lost it all. I'll get to typing and post it as soon as I get done.

Boy did I think of you while I was doing my crazy packing. I thought for sure you would not approve of my packing ways.

Re: SOOOO not planned trip TR!!!

So here is the CAST:

Me
DH
DD(4)
DS(2)

B Family...our best friends and their 3 girls(5, 6, 7)

P Family...our other friends and their son(3)

So Tuesday arrives and my DD has her Easter Egg hunt at school so I take her to school and stay for the egg hunt. When it is all over I sign her out and take her with me. We arrive at home and I finish up packing.


My DH gets home and we pack the car, pick up some McDonalds for lunch and we are on the Florida Turnpike at about 2:00pm. We arrive at the house at about 5:30. My DH, DD and DS get in the pool with everyone else while I unpack and make my way on over to walgreens for all of the things that I realized I left behind.

After my quick little trip to the stores...everyone out of the pool and get ready for dinner. We went to the Boardwalk to have dinner at the ESPN club. My DH and the other 2 DHs are all about sports so they LOVE it there.

Dinner was yummy!!! We ordered the Macho Nachos, which I thought were good. Now I am all about sandwiches...that is usually the first thing that I check when I look at a menu. I got the Triple Play Turkey and Brie Sandwich. That was a YUMMY sandwich. My DD had the mac -n- cheese and she pretty much ate it all. I think everyone was quite pleased with what they ordered. After dinner we made our way back home to rest up for Wed.

Here is a picture of all the kiddos at the boardwalk...

The kids are cute, and that's a smart kid, the one with the Heat Jersey on.

Re: SOOOO not planned trip TR!!!

Keep it coming... I think that sometimes the last minute unplanned trips/events are the best.. there is a lot to be said for spontaneity.

Re: SOOOO not planned trip TR!!!

We arrive and as usual I get the butterflies in my tummy. We rent 3 bouble strollers and we are on out way. The usual question comes up...Do we go left or right? We decided left. Adventureland here we come. And we see...
