Take a look at the free plans at www.touringplans.com, or at some of the threads here about how to approach the parks.

When you're at the parks at opening, with no waits, and when you use your Fastpass knowledge to avoid a long wait, he's going to understand just how much of a genius you are!!

Oh how I put it! I got the book Unofficial 2012 from touring plan. DH read it 2 times and said "this book makes me dont want to go" Apparently he went to Disneyland (at kids for weekend since he grow up in the Bay area) And his parents never plan anything.
I plan the whole nine yard of free dining, vouchers, hats, t shirts, kids autograph books (all personalize) He thinks this planning is just feeding my control freak moment...he rather go with the flow. He is easy going that way.
For me, planning the trips is part of the vacation. I think he is missing out. The kids help me did their own autograph book, watch all the Disney movies, watch the rides, making t shirts...
I told my husband I will guaranty him that "It will not be Perfect but it will be different from his childhood Disney experience, and we will have a great time no matter what"

Aahhh! Today is my only day to pack. Tom I work 12 hours, Saturday I have parties all day, and we leave around 4:15 am Sunday for the airport. I'm so overwhelmed. I hate packing lol, I just know I'm gonna forget something. On the bright side, just THREE more days till we at WDW!!!

We are driving down from MD. We are leaving about 6-7pm tonight and driving straight through. I am going insane! My kids spent the night at my in-laws so we could pack up the van last night. They know we are going to Disney this summer but don't have a clue when we are leaving. My DH took a half day to come home and sleep some. We are going to tell the kids he is sick. This evening we are going to surprise them! Only 5 more hours to go!!!!!
