Allow me to introduce myself first!

Ok...so I was so excited to hit the ground running with my blog, that I totally failed to introduce myself.  Im Loretta from Texas married to my high school crush, Rudy (he was way too handsome for me, I'm still not sure how I won him over) and we have 4 kids. My two teens, Tyra and Rudy and my two little ones, Luke and Macy make up my crazy but wonderful little world!  We are a middle class family counting every penny and making sure to stretch our dollars so that "once in a while" we can indulge on what we consider the finer things in life, whether it be a small weekend getaway to San Antonio, a small shopping spree or saving for our first ever trip to Disney for a party of six! 
I cant wait to share every aspect of my experience,  but for the sake of time and to prevent from writing a full blown novel;  I intend on sharing a little bit at a time. Like I always tell my daughter who stresses over big projects or tasks, How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time!

We Can Go? What???

So after 16 years of marriage its always been, "One day we'll go to Disney World." Imagine my surprise when my husband finally said book the trip.  Omgoodness, I couldn't get on the website fast enough.  Then it set in... my husband's vacation was set for three weeks from the day he decided to go.  Panic mode totally set in. 

I'd been on the website and fantasized about my dream vacay, this is how I semi had an idea of how much our trip would cost.  I'd explored websites with tips for Disney and seen the time frame needed to book a dining reservation.  I was saddened to know that a dinner at Cinderella's Castle was likley out of the question, but that was no reason to postpone my date with Mickey. So it was time to put my game face on...we were going to Disney!

So, I will be sharing all the ins, outs, anxieties, worries,  thoughts,  and all things in between about my first trip to Disney with my hubby and four kids in tow!
