My Pre TR and countdown wall to Happiness!!!

Hello everyone. I am fairly new here and this is my first attempt at a pre TR.
OK let's see where do I start-
The team members that are going are:
Myself- 32 have been to Disney many times and LOVE everything about it
My DH- 30 Has never been to Disney until he met me(which was 10 years ago) Since then we have been numerous times together and he is now a Disney fanatic.
Our DD-Ava- 2 1/2. This will be her third trip. We are creating another disney fanatic.
We are known as Team Mattson (a little more about that soon)
We are arriving on 12/3 and staying in BLT for two nights and then moving to SSR until checkout on 12/12.
The team members that will be down at the same time but not staying with us are:
My SIL and her DH- They have 3 children and are also Disney fanatics. They are known as Team Orsini.
My other SIL and her DH. They have no children (although I'm thinking this may be their last solo trip) They are Team Dodd.
Both of these teams are staying at POR.
When we were planning this trip and where we were going together- My one SIL decided to give us all team names to make it easier. We thought it was cute and it stuck. We are even thinking about making T-shirts with our team names.

We are counting down the 30 days prior till we leave. We will take each number down as that day comes and goes. Just something for fun to make the days go by.

Thanks DisneyPrincess- we can't wait.

Hope you have great time- and maybe we will pass each other:wave:

I love your pre-trip report. The wall is awesome!!! I'm going to have to do something like that for our trip, which isn't until 2011:(.
Thank you- Your trip does seem so far away:(, but it will be here before you know it. Hope you have fun.

I love the countdown wall. Hope you have a great trip!
Thank you- I get so excited everytime I walk past it.

Awesome Countdown Wall!

That is one fantastic countdown wall! Wow! When you said you were doing a countdown I had no idea it would be an actual wall. I pictured a calendar with the days marked off and some stickers. Your wall rocks. I am so doing that next time. See you in Florida.

Love,

Team Orsini
