Surprise...

When we first talked about going to Disneyland back in 2012, Wendy and I both agreed that we shouldn't tell the kids. The plan was that whenever we went we would surprise the kids together.

But not long after starting the actual planning of our trip, Wendy actually told Luke and Mitchell. Melissa and Hannah still had no clue, so we decided to tell them when we away together in Twizel in January.

Friday morning 11 January, we cooked a special breakfast, and told the girls they should put on their Disney pajamas that they already had, Wendy also put her Minnie Mouse t-shirt on.

During breakfast Nick started asking the girls where they think we should go for our next holiday, I think we were hoping they would say Australia as this is what they had been suggesting for a few months, but the first thing out if Melissa's mouth was DISNEYLAND.
It took a few seconds for it to sink in when we confirmed that this is exactly where we are going to go...

As you can see by he look on Hannah's face, she hadn't comprehended what was said, but after breakfast she looked a lot more excited...

We then gave them new t-shirts...

And buttons that I had made for their necklaces (the necklaces are from Two Lyttel Buttons and I had her custom make the Disneyland buttons) ...

And lastly we gave them a book each that I had made and Wendy had printed, telling them all about the holiday, I will put that in the next post.

90 days to go...
