Reach out and find your Happily Ever After

2021-10-15T10:07:47-04:00September 27, 2021|50th Anniversary, Disney World|0 Comments

Disney World has always been a special place to me - it was where I honeymooned, spent wedding anniversaries, celebrated milestones. When that marriage ended, the idea of never being able to visit Disney World again - a place that meant so much in that marriage - loomed over me like a dark cloud. Would I ever get my Disney certified happily ever after? But I did go back - and each time it got easier and more fun. In July 2017, I decided to go by myself on a spur of the moment trip. I booked my trip three [...]

Sharing the Magic of Walt Disney World

2021-10-15T10:03:51-04:00September 26, 2021|50th Anniversary, Disney World|1 Comment

Some of my earliest memories are from Walt Disney World (although not all of them are super magical, like when I got my head stuck in the balcony railing at the Polynesian Village Resort). My family visited for the first time in the mid-80s (there’s an ongoing debate between 1986 and 1987). I loved staying at the Poly with my grandparents, ordering room service, and dining with the characters.                   Even as a little kid, I knew there was magic just in helping others to believe in the wonders of the parks. [...]

The Magic of Walt Disney World During the Holiday Season

Have you ever visited Walt Disney World during the holiday season? It’s the “Most Magical Time of the Year” to visit! Things may look a little different right now than they have in the past, but that doesn’t mean it’s any less magical. My family just returned from spending a week at Walt Disney World and had an amazing time! Let me share some of our favorite holiday experiences from our 2020 trip. We stayed at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort and it was beautifully decorated with a themed tree and holiday touches around the resort. The Poly is currently undergoing [...]

Disney Springs – Christmas Tree Stroll 2020

2020-11-23T18:06:29-05:00November 23, 2020|Disney Springs|0 Comments

The holidays are just around the corner and I love visiting Walt Disney World when it’s all decked out for the season. The parks have added holiday touches like Christmas-themed character cavalcades, special treats, and beautiful decorations to capture the magic of the season. It’s the most magical time of the year to visit! During your vacation, it’s always a good idea to plan a day for a little downtime, so you can relax by the pool, do a little shopping and take a break to refresh a bit. During our day off from the parks, my family likes to [...]

Bringing Back the Magic

2020-06-02T08:55:47-04:00June 2, 2020|Uncategorized|0 Comments

  Since March 12, I have received many emails starting “I am sorry, but we have to cancel” or even worse, sending an email, “I am sorry, Disney’s closure has been extended.”  I have waited for this day since the initial closing announcement.  I have never wanted to work more than I have during this time.  I miss planning vacations.  I miss getting to know people from around the country. I miss working with my clients to create a vacation so magical, it will never be forgotten.  My passion for this job has been longing for normal.  Normal is not [...]

Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party – Attending When You’re a Person Who Doesn’t Love Halloween!

2023-10-06T22:42:19-04:00November 1, 2019|Mickey's not so scary halloween party|0 Comments

I’ve never really loved Halloween.  Sure, when I was a kid, I went door to door in my suburban neighborhood trick or treating for candy and loved it.  I always struggled with creating a costume because I’m just not that creative.  My mom is so she helped a lot.  Fast forward to when my own kids were in elementary school – yes, I dressed them up as well and we went on a hunt for the best candy.  But, it was in those years that I became a little wary of those handing out the candy.  Was it safe for [...]

Shadow Silhouettes

2023-10-06T22:36:11-04:00August 18, 2019|Disneyland|0 Comments

When someone mentions “Disneyland” or “Walt Disney World,” what’s the first thing that pops into your head? The price? Mickey Mouse? The castle? For me, it’s 2 things... churros and Mickey Mouse ears. Random, I know, but is there anything cuter than a little kid eating a churro while wearing their Mickey Mouse ears? The first time I went to Disney was as an adult, and let me tell you, my head is too big for their cute ear headbands and Mickey ears. This was devastating as I had always wanted them. Seeing that I was Queen of Hearts head [...]

Surviving Homecoming: 10 Tips to Waiting Out the Airport with Kids

2019-07-14T18:41:47-04:00July 14, 2019|Disney Travel, Disney World|0 Comments

Nothing is worse than the trip home after the most amazing vacation ever! Everyone is tired (ok fine...grumpy) from a week of fun and slightly sad (devastated) because it’s over. No one wants to sit around the airport waiting for a flight.  After our most recent Disney Cruise, we arrived at the airport at 9:30 am and didn’t board our plane home until 4:40 pm!  Here are my favorite tips for a fighting chance at a smooth waiting period when everyone just wants to be home.....yesterday.  A backpack for each traveler (mom and dad shouldn’t be the only pack mules) [...]
