Thank You, to Everyone who made this Trip possible for my family. My kids Loved GWL so much and keep asking us when we're headed back. My 4 yr old loved riding all of the BIG slides. My 3 yr old Loved the Splash pad and Kiddie pool. The thing that they found most enjoyable was watching the Polar Express in the Grand Lobby and being able to lay out on Blankets and eat popcorn. Again Thank You EVERYONE!!!

Hi Everyone! Thank you so much for taking a moment to read this and for supporting our military! I am currently on active duty, approaching my 12 year mark and just returned from deployment. We are a family of 6 and I would love the opportunity to spend either Christmas or Thanksgiving at Walt Disney World with my family this year since I missed being home with them in 2016. Disney World is our family's "happy place" and even though our children are growing up (we have one graduating high school in June) and getting older, Disney has a way of bringing us all closer together. I would especially like to be able to take them to the Very Merry Christmas Party one evening! Thank you again for all of your support!

I am MSgt Christina Petruzzi and I am currently deployed on a 365 tour in Kabul, Afghanistan working with the Afghan Air Force to Train Advise and Assist. This year has been one of the hardest years of my life and I know it has been very difficult on my 2 boys Giovanni (7) and Jacob (15) While dealing with this deployment, sibling separation for the past 11 months + due to different fathers and upcoming divorce and PCS, I just need a break and time to bond again with my children together. I would like to take them on a 4 day park hopper vacation to Disneyland as we have never been there and would love the time to bond with my babies. I am due home within the next few weeks. Disneyland Vacation- 4 day hopper passes for 4

My name is AOC (AW/SW) Hector J Gonzalez my wish is for my wife (Jamie) and myself to attend a Dallas Cowboys Game on the 19th of November 2017. I have been in the United States Navy for 18 years now. I have been assigned to the USS CARL VINSON for the past 5 years. During this time we have completed a ten-month deployment, a six-month deployment and our battle group is preparing for another 6-month deployment in the beginning of the year 2018. With all the deployments and out to sea training exercises, my wife and I have found it difficult to have a weekend getaway. To top it all off, after the upcoming deployment, we will be transferring to our next duty station in the Pacific Northwest making it more difficult for us to travel to Dallas to catch a game. Most of our time is consumed with our kids and everyday life. We will be making a trip to Texas so the kids can visit their grandmother. Since my hometown of Odessa is 5 hours from Dallas, Jamie and myself will be driving to Dallas to take a tour of AT&T Stadium, since tickets to tour the stadium are not out of reach. We would really like to attend an actual game but tickets are at least $200.00 each and due to our upcoming PCS, we are unable to purchase game tickets.

Hello, I am SPC Sam Pearson, I am currently deployed to Afghanistan, this is my 2nd deployment. My first deployment was with 10th Mountain Division, conducting route clearance with combat engineers, this deployment I am with the Infantry out of Fort Bliss. My first time away from 2 of my kids, My wife and I have 3 together. Two of them were born between the first deployment and this one. As far as our children, One is currently 5 months old, and the other is nearly two. And the third has just turned 5. None of my family, including myself have ever been to Disney World, or even Florida. And we have figured it would be a dream trip upon my return. I am looking to take my family on a trip to Disney World.

I am a wounded Warrior with deployments to Iraq. I have 2 children. The dates are I was medically retired in 2013 from wounds I incurred during those deployments to include TBI, PTSD, Knee surgery, 3 shoulder surgeries, and recently a back fusion, migraines, and chronic pain daily. I am married for 18 years with two children Alan 08-30-1997 and Amanda 03-04-2017 my wife Shari 04-27-1966 and myself Alan Humphrey III 02-13-1975 will attend the Football game. I have spent most the time during 2003 to 2013 with the deployments and military necessary time away from my family. With short intervals of time at home. I feel that going to these games would involve family time to reconnect with my wife and children. Thank you in advance for this opportunity to be with my family.

I would like to thank Vettix, the Seattle Seahawks and the 13 individual donors for my Hero's Wish. I had an amazing time with my family being able to go on the field for the pre-game practice and the seats were great. The game did not go as we liked Seattle Seahawks losing but it was a great time. Thank you for making it possible for us to attend. Alan Humphrey III

Hello, my name is Sergeant David Montoya. I am a retired sergeant which I have severed in the Army and National Guard for over twenty-two years. When I was eighteen I joined the Army and was sent to Germany for three years. Since then I have done various tours of duty which some have been here in the states.

My name is GySgt Justin Bond. It'll be 17 years of service come this August 2017. The toughest part about being in the military is leaving your biggest support system...my family sacrifices so much for my career. I am currently deployed in Spain and will not return until August sometime (7 months gone). We are a larger family and have not had the funds to take our children on a family vacation since getting married 8 years ago. I would love to be able to surprise our 4 kids with a trip to Disneyland to try to make up for all the missed birthdays, anniversaries and holidays. I would like to make a Hero's wish to request (5) Disneyland 3-day park hopper tickets for my family; My wife Rebecca and our 4 kids; Juni 15, Nicky 10, Jacob 4 and Elsie 2. We would love to take this trip in October 2017. Any sort of contribution will help our family greatly and we would be eternally grateful. Thank you and God Bless.
