Okay so being HUGE fans of Disney and visiting as often as we can we decided to participate in their "Give A Day, Get A Day" volunteer program. They listed several volunteer opportunities in our area where we could donate our time or service. We decided to go with the making blankets options for Lititz/Lancaster Project Linus. They donate blankets to children who are seriously ill, tramatized, or otherwise in need. Since they started 10 years ago they have donated over 25,000 blankets. And for each one of the blankets we donated Disney gave us a Free One day park admission pass! 
At first i wasn't sure the blanket idea was our best option ( i don't sew!!!) but then i learned of a fleece style blanket that you basically just cut two pieces of fleece the same size, lay one on top of the other, cut strips in both pieces one inch apart, and knot them together. Piece of cake, Parker was even helping!
Disney, what a great incentive program!!!!

Disney, what a great incentive program!!!! And I just got an email that they have reached their goal of 1 million volunteers and the progam is now over. I'm glad we acted when we did. Our passes our printed and ready for us. Now all that is left is get to ourselves to a Disney amusement park!
