Ok, here we go!!! We sailed on the Dream in May of 2011 even though my DH got laid off in Sept of 2010. (the trip had already been paid for) While on board I threw caution to the wind and booked 2 more cruises! With only one income coming in (mine) I am determined to make this happen!! I decided that from this past May until the new year (2012) I will put all "found" money toward the trip. So far we have "found" $325 which was sent to our TA to put toward our B2B cruises. So here is the breakdown!! Me, DH, DD14 and DD12. Sailing a B2B 3/4 on the Disney Dream in May of 2013. (I am using 2012 to get ready for DD14's Sweet Sixteen Party) Cost for the 2 cruises - $4500 including tips(I got 10% off by booking on board) Parking - $50 (We use Park and Sail instead of parking at the port) Pet Sitter - $200 Spending Money - $1500. (I am a Dooney Freak and my DH and girls are pin traders) So our total is $6250. - $200 Deposit - $325 "Found" money And with that, it brings me here to learn everything I need to learn to make this possible! Thanks for any input!!

Well since I have last posted we haven't gotten much closer to our goal. It seems like everyone wants a piece of me.
DH started a job, it's not a good job but it is alot more then the unemployment check AND he gets tips!! So in my book, tips are free money!!
He has only worked a total of 9 hrs so far and has added to our Disney fund, $26.75. It's a start!!
I am planning on posting on here once a week and am hoping that we can add $100 a week of free tip money!!
