Quick tip of the day
Disney park tickets often go up in price once or twice per year. To save, you can buy them now to use later and pay the lower rate.

This is so our family!! We’ll be going the first week Dec. 2015. I’ve been three times, but it’s been 15 years, and it will be my husband’s, and our three children’s first. My husband sees money signs, and not the magic. I just mentioned the Very Merry Christmas Party to him, and his eye roll, and his frown, made me second guess involving him in EVERY decision.
Shannon, loved this episode and I didn’t even realize that it was 2 hours long. For a first timer this is definitely worth listening to, especially with the whole family taking part. Great job moving the interview along, while letting them talk about what was important to them. Thank you.
I loved this episode, I didn’t want it to end.
The planning and detail were great
That’s especially amazing considering how LONG this episode was. Glad you liked it!
