We are going to Disneyland for Molly's 6th Birthday this year (third year running WOO!) because things have happened to make it irresponsible of us to NOT go there. Namely, a FREE WEEK AT THE GRAND CALIFORNIAN thanks to my Brother and his time share! So here's the information you need to know:

Molly's Birthday is on January 29th, an absolute PERFECT time to go to the park because all the attractions are just coming off of their refurbishment and holiday season overlay removal, plus it's the week before the official "Spring Break" season so the park is extremely under-crowded. Last year we were able to WALK ON TO SPACE MOUNTAIN, I kid you not!
The week of January 29th is not available to us for the free week of Grand Californian. We can have either January 21st till January 27th, or the week of February 11 to February 17th.
If we go the week in January, we get to have the room all to ourselves
If we go in February, we share the room with my Brother and his family (wife and two teenage daughters)
We love my Brother and his family and we'd love to spend the week with them, but our natural preference is to be alone
If we go in January, there's a very good chance that many attractions will still be closed in order to remove the holiday overlay (last year we missed one day of Haunted Mansion and 3 days of It's A Small World to holiday overlay removal)
If we go in February we risk running in to the first wave of "Spring Break" crowds as well as any crowds brought in by Valentine's Day
If we go in February, we get to be in Disneyland on a HOLIDAY!!!
If we go in February, Molly's Spring Break becomes TWO WEEKS instead of just one (Spring Break for her school is the week after Valentine's Day)
If we go in February, Molly can have a regular Birthday Party with all her little friends!

I think I'm pretty much set on February as our week to go, but for some reason I'm still torn... when would YOU choose to go?
