I’m going to Disney World……..
For Ben's 21st Birthday, my mother decided a trip to Disney would be an awesome way to celebrate {actually she suggested Vegas, but Ben thought Disney would be a more appropriate place to hang out with his grandmother!}
I dropped them off at the airport yesterday and I’m going fly down tomorrow to spend a couple days with them. Since I couldn’t be there for the whole trip, I called up Disney and had planned to have birthday balloons sent to their hotel room………
But they are staying at the Animal kingdom Lodge, so Balloons are a No – No!
So,,,, the ever so helpful Mouseketeer (aka very talented salesperson) at Disney Florist helped me select an alternative option,,,,,
Needless to say I may have gone a tad overboard……. (Not that I need help in going overboard when it comes to gift giving and spending money)
And hey,,,
what 21 year old guy wouldn’t want the ‘Mickey & Pals Big Birthday Wish” in-room extravaganza!
Here’s the overview: Imagine stepping into your resort room and discovering that Mickey Mouse and the gang have left you a personalized Birthday Surprise! All around the room, large, colorful packages have your name on them; themed to Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Goofy, Donald Duck and Pluto, these presents create a festive environment! On the wall hangs a bright Birthday Banner and there's also a colorful mylar balloon bouquet awaiting the birthday recipient. (Please note: Guests of Disney's Animal Kingdom will receive a canvas Disney tote in place of the balloon bouquet, for the protection of the animals.) There’s even an Autograph Book on the table, signed to you by Mickey Mouse himself. And if you take a peek around, you’ll find Tinker Bell's shadow; She's come by to sprinkle Pixie Dust on you! All of this is not only for you to enjoy - every piece is meant for you to take home!

.....but the deal was sealed when I found out that the gift from Pluto included dog bone shaped rise crispy bars in an adorable dog bowl with a Pluto placemat
I so hope my Mom takes lots of photos!!!
It’s being delivered today between 6-8pm (had to make sure Mom & Ben were out of the rooms so they could set it up)
........I’m giddy with excitment
PS....Here's a stock photo of the Animal Kingdom Lodge
And I confirmed with Ben last night .....
.....the animals are really that close to the Hotel – SOO Cool!!!!!
