Reach out and find your Happily Ever After

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

Magic Moments at Disney World

2021-10-15T10:05:04-04:00September 25, 2021|Disney World, 50th Anniversary|0 Comments

I grew up watching Disney films; Pocahontas and Snow White were my favorites. When I was 10 years old, my family and I made our first trip to Walt Disney World to celebrate 2000! I fell in love with the magic and the characters. Disney became my favorite vacation spot at that point. It was a part of me. In 2013, my now husband and I traveled to Walt Disney World on what would be his first trip. He proposed on that trip, right in front of Cinderella's Castle just before the fireworks. It was the most magical moment - [...]

The Magic of Disney

2021-10-15T10:06:16-04:00September 24, 2021|Disney World, 50th Anniversary|0 Comments

For as long as I can remember, Disney has always been a part of my life. I remember going to the movies with my Grandma Jo in Denver and seeing the newest Disney movie, all while Grandma snored next to me. Or chasing my other grandparents’ dog around the yard with my new Roger Rabbit stuffed animal and Benny the Cab box. Or the Beauty and the Beast sweater that had the printed rose leggings that I refused to get rid of, even though I never wore it because it was so itchy. But I didn’t get to experience the [...]

50 Years of Walt Disney World ~ Pure Disney Magic

2021-09-26T08:02:57-04:00September 23, 2021|Disney World, 50th Anniversary|2 Comments

50 Years of Walt Disney World ~ Pure Disney Magic I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about how I would try and explain to you what Walt Disney World celebrating her 50th anniversary means to me.  A lot of time.  It’s taken me a while because, honestly, I don’t know that I can put my true feelings about it into words.  Walt Disney World isn’t just a place to me; it’s an experience.  It’s the Disney version of magic – fantasy becomes a reality.  And that Disney Magic has touched my life during many different seasons.  Some of those [...]

Creating your Disney experience

You have officially booked your Walt Disney World vacation; you may be wondering, “what’s next?” With the phased reopening of Walt Disney World, the planning timeline looks completely different from previous years.  While the timeline looks different, all of the planning pieces are still there.  Early booking is still best: Better resort and room availability Park reservations are required through 2023 I am monitoring for discounts to get you the best price possible. Planning a WDW vacation is exciting, but you may find yourself twiddling your thumbs, waiting for the next planning puzzle piece to reveal itself.  One way you [...]

Caribbean Beach Resort – A Walt Disney World Resort For All Ages

It was exciting to plan our January 2021 vacation because this trip, for the first time, included family members from ages 9 to 84!  We needed just the right resort to fit everyone’s needs, and we found the right fit at Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort.  Not only does it have easy access to the Skyliner so that we could easily get to Epcot and Disney’s Hollywood Studios, but the rooms were spacious, and the activities were fun! We had 4 adults and 2 children traveling. Due to the size of our group, we were split into 2 separate rooms. When [...]
