I did the same thing--booked some ADRs at the deluxe resorts so we can easily see the decorations. I didn't want to put "resort hop to see decorations" in the schedule and hear DH complain. This way he is lured into it with food.

 

[Valgoof]

I really was trying to be restrained. But DH asked me if I was planning anything special and when I hesitated, he insisted that I needed to so something. *lol* It's his parents first time. And DS10 still thinks its all done by Mickey. I mean, he knows Mickey is just a guy (several really) but he still thinks the character CMs are the ones responsible for his pixie dust. With some coordination and suggestions from Mom. Those guys must be really busy.

Oh yeah, their first trip--you have to do "something". I love that DS knows Mickey is a CM, but doesnt realize you are doing the surprises. Does he not see all the suitcases you bring with you?? LOL

I did put Resort Hop to See Decorations in my plan. But I also highlighted all the resort bars.

Fortunately he's quite oblivious. He got slightly suspicious on the last one. Mickey invited him to MNSSHP on his birthday and "delivered" costumes for the entire family to our room. The logistics of the costumes didn't phase him. But he knows how tightly I manage our schedule, so I had to admit that Disney asked me to clear an evening. But I told him I didn't know what they were planning. I'm not sure that he totally believed me, in the sense that he thinks Disney told me what the plan was. He spent the whole night telling CMs that Mickey invited him for his birthday and there was no doubt about that one at all.

He does know that parents can work together with Disney to make things happen, like the Jedi Mickey basket we bought one year. I'm working on starter pin kits for DS and his grandfather. He knows I'm working on it, but when the box is "delivered" before our trip, he'll think it came from Disney. And he'll keep my "involvement" a secret from his grandfather.

I told you I have a tendency to go overboard but it's just so much fun.

That is awesome!! It's things like that, that make me wish we had a child. Well almost.

Nope. It has definitely gone

Actually was surprised how good the plywood is under neath (it is a very high traffic area) sooooo, have decided to experiment. See, have no idea what I want down and it would be very expensive right before Disney .... DIY channel had an episode where they painted it. That might be fun and I can do that myself

Glad you found your project. You can paint little hidden Mickeys in the corners.
