Mom and Me and Mickey Make Three!

Sad news for the kids...we've had to postpone our Disney trip. Great news for my mom and me...we are going, just the two of us, in March 2016 (13-17th). First trip for me to Disneyland sans kids, first time on a plane with my mom. To say I'm excited is an understatement. We've already bought the airline tickets and booked the hotel. Fundraising for just myself will be a piece of cake. I look forward to eating at the Blue Bayou, drinking a glass of wine in California Adventures, standing in line without a chorus of whines and complaints, leisurely shopping in shops with lots of breakable items. I can't wait!!!!

Change of travel date again...November 9, 2015. A bit sooner, so that is exciting. I've started saving in earnest and the hotel has been booked. All our loose change goes into our Churro Fund jar and I've earmarked certain earnings for our trip (drop-ins paid in cash, my new twice monthly house cleaning job, etsy proceeds paid via paypal and $50 per Michael's paychecks.) Just this week I managed to stash away $235.
