Hi everyone! After months and month of planning and wishing, we're finally going to spend a long weekend at The World!! I've talked and talked about Disney until it became a swear word in my house! But now that it's a little over two week away, everyone is super excited.This is the first trip I've ever planned, so hopefully everything goes well, cause I'll have no one to blame. 
Here's the WHO, WHERE, WHEN, WHY of our trip:
WHO: Me (ms. Sunshine), Hubby, my 4 year old (aka ZuZu) and my MIL (Mom). Hubby and I took our first trip as a couple back in 2010 and haven't been back since. This is ZuZu's first trip to Disney and Mom hasn't been since like 1987 or something like that. Needless to say, its been awhile.
WHERE: Staying at AKL. I've been ogling different resorts, and just decided on this one. I wanted a unique experience for everyone, and I've heard good things on here about it.
WHEN: July 13-17. Leaving after work. Our bags will be packed and loaded in the car. Hubby will pick me up from work and we're heading straight to Orlando (we're a few hours away).
WHY: Because why not? Also because we've had a really crappy past 6 months. Hubby and I we're in a car wreck (car was completely totaled), got rear ended (in the new car), I suffered a miscarriage on New Year's Eve (unrelated to the accident, but sucked even more). We definitely needed some magic.
Since we'll be on 4 year old time I'm trying not to overload the day's activities. I didn't make too many Fast Passes or ADRs, just a few character meals. I'll take suggestions if I'm missing out on anything
. I'll post our daily activities after I put the kid to sleep.

I would also encourage you to keep searching for Frozen fastpasses. I had booked two for my daughter and I a month ago and then my mom decided to join us the very day we were going, and I was not only able to get her a fastpass, but I was also able to change them all to an earlier and better time so that we could all ride together! Same thing happened with Soarin
