    Default keeping WDW vacation a secret?

    My DH insists that we keep our upcoming vacation a and it is driving me crazy! I want to talk about WDW all the time...It's an obsession. A sickness, if you will.

    Is anyone else experiencing this?

    This is the main reason we've never kept a trip a secret. I love to talk about it, and the kids love being a part of the pre-planning. Well, my daughter does. My son gets tired of the Disney talk, but he still loves to be there. We've always gone with the philosophy that we're all a part of the family vacation and everyone has a say. Not that I would be opposed to being whisked away, either.

    I am not sure I could handle keeping it a secret. I am 199 days away and I have to talk about it to dh at least once a day (I would do more, but he just laughs at me. )

    My DH and DDs know but the rest of my family - parents, sister and her family, and FIL - don't know yet. It was easier keeping the secret and not having to hear their complaints which tend to put a damper on my excitement. Mom will complain that we aren't taking her (she just went with us in Dec), Sister will complain that we're going and she's not although she doesn't actually want to go with us, and FIL will complain about spending the money to go again when we were just there in Dec. We are telling everyone soon but in the mean time, I've been driving my friends at work crazy and fortunately I have my "family" at Intercot!

    I am jealous. I want to plan a surprise trip for DW and DD's first trip. My wife is a teacher, so our timings are limited. If she gets in a Year-Round school (on 9 weeks, off 3 weeks), I am going to plan a 10-12 day trip when she is off for 3 weeks. I will not tell her or DD. The day before, I will hand her the plane tickets and tell her to pack.

    1 Week at Wyndham Bonnet Creek 06/17/17 - 06/24/17; 1 Week at Orange Lake Resort 06/24/17 - 06/30/17; 1 week at OKW 12/03/17 - 12/10/17

    That's sounds so great! She will surely love that! My DH wants to keep it a secret because he doesn't want the kids to hear any negative comments from anyone. I am respecting his wishes but it's still making me .

    The best I've ever been able to secretly do is leave a day early. This year I am trying to keep secret, taking my DD to BBB and then to My Princess tea. Also, we are secretly planning the Behind the Steam Trains tour for DS. It is May, we are going in Sept. Can I keep my mouth shut that long??? My DH chuckles behind me!
