Wow, it was a surprize!

We were visiting family for Thanksgiving. My MIL and FIL invited us over for dinner before the rest of all get together for Thanksgiving meal on Thursday. They sat the boys age 14, 11, 6,5 on the couch and each were given a envelope. They told them to open it together read it out loud. The boys (and us) got our Christmas presents earily, it is an all paid vacation to WDW staying on site in March! Can you believe it. I still can not. MIL will not let us do any of the planning. See wants to do this for the boys and they are very excited.

The reaction was different from each of the boys, at it was to be expected. The two older boys were speechless and emotional. The youngest has not been to WDW and he is six. He was so excited. My youngest does not get excited in the outward kind of way, but he was excited to tell his cousin everything they can do being six.

My MIL and FIL did the same thing for us this year for Christmas. Isn't that wonderful!? We're very grateful and excited. We've never traveled with my SILs family before and it will be fun for my DS to have my neice to play with! And it's her first trip, so it's double the fun watching rookies!!!!

Here's a cheer to MIL's!
