Lets get this show on the road.......Nationals!
My son, Justin, is a member of his schools FBLA (future business leaders of america) club. He has been a member for 3 years and this year is also the club Secretary. In this club they participate in different business related events on the local, regional, state and national level. Justin has made it to state all three years, and this year qualified to go on to NATIONALS!! *can you tell I'm excited??* This year he did events in cyber security, something else (I really did listen when he told me, I just forgot what he said) and Microsoft Word. As part of the word test he also did so good he is certified in word, he is also certified in power point but didn't make it to nationals in that. He qualified in the microsoft word for Nationals. In face he is one of 5 in the whole state of Washington that qualified! See why I am so excited!!
So what does all this mean????? It means Justin is going to Anaheim in June and I get to go with him!! Justin is busy doing fundraising (speaking at different clubs - like the Kiwanis- in the county) and sending letters out asking for donations. Meanwhile I am busy saving money so we can stay a few extra days and go to Disneyland.
Normally I plan our trips out a year, yes I know I'm crazy. But for this trip we had two months! yikes!!
Here's what I have taken care of so far
- parking for while we are gone (it was only $10 more to stay in a hotel right by the airport the night before our flight - who had the bright idea to book a 6:45 flight??? oh yeah, that would be my fault)
- flights
- hotel for after the conference is booked
- medieval times dinner through conference is paid for (justin is very excited to go again
- Photopass + is paid for (thanks to a gift card I had)
- New summer dress clothes for justin
- disney shirt for each of us (can't go to disneyland without a disney shirt!)
- some snacks and breakfast for the room
- collapsible cooler (no fridge in the room)
Here's what we still need to take care of
- Shuttle to and from hotel
- Disneyland tickets (we can get discounted tickets through the conference)
- snacks, water once we check in to the hotel (there is a mini mart across the street from the hotel)
So proud! When did he grow up?!?
