For the last two months I have been obsessed with planning my families very first trip to WDW - I went once for two days in 1977 when I was 6. Dh has been very helpful with decision making and tolerating all my ADR changes. Listens attentively to every little tip I find on the web. But the other day I think I took it too far for even him. I was in the Disney Store and saw a hot pink golf shirt with Tinkerbell on it. I had to have it. I could just picture myself in it with a cute little white skirt, walking around MK... I had to have it! Well, I brought it home and dh took one look at it and told me I had finally crossed the line, or lost my mind... didn't matter which one! LOL!
I have to say, I think I agree. This planning has taken over my life. I'm jotting down things to remember on lists everywhere. I'm buying books. I'm reading websites and reviews of hotels and restaurants continuously. I even tried to talk him into buying 10 day tickets with no expiration for 'when we go back' and we haven't even been once yet!
So, have I lost my mind? Or am I just like the rest of you all now??

Oh honey! You're in good company. I've only been once before too, like 16 years ago! But I've become obsessed with Disney too! And though I'm trying not to overplan, it's in my thoughts just about 24/7! Welcome to the club! haha

Count me in the club as well! We have been to Disney World in Sept '05 and Sept'06 and loved it! Both husband and myself had been before as kids but our trip in '05 was our first together. Our daughter was 18 months at the time. We all had so much fun. I have been a Disney fanatic for a while not, but after that trip my husband was hooked (he won't admit it though! :) ). :) The trip we took last year was great too. This year when we were trying to figure out where to go on vacation (sometime in January) my husband said he didn't want to do Disney again since we had been there the last 2 years, so we made plans to go to Ocean City, Md instead. Well last week I mentioned the free dining plan promotion was available again this year. A few days after mentioning it he mentioned that maybe we could go for a few days! Totally surprised me that HE brought it up and was all for going. Well after figuring it all out and whatnot we decided to wait before making reservations. Well today I came across an unbelievable promotion from spirit airlines and was able to get a roundtrip airfare for $16 to Tampa from Detroit at the end of May!!! Well after taxes it was $36 something, so a total of $110. So we will definitely be going to Disney World after all this year!! I'm so excited!! I have to get in planning mode soon. I have already found us some hotels both in Tampa and in the Disney World area. Just need to book them. Now just need to rent a car and get our list of stuff to pack ready!! I can't believe we'll be going next month!!
I'm always thinking of when our next trip will be, so glad we have one to plan for now!!

Okay - I have to say - this will be our first trip as well, this fall, but I am completely obsessed.
