Wow, I’ve now been blogging on Disney in your Day for 2 years! Technically the anniversary was yesterday, but I already had a post up so I decided to save this one for today – plus while I created the blog on the 9th, the first post didn’t go up until the 10th. I didn’t even realize it was coming up, but I was scrolling back through July 2014 for a throwback Thursday post and came across the post on my 1 year blog-iversary: and realized it was that date on the calendar! Funny how stuff works out like that sometimes.
My first blog post ever was a review of Monsters University! In these two years I’ve posted 385 posts. I have 1,165 facebook followers and I’ve started accounts on Twitter and Instagram. I’ve started several new series, including my Thoughts on Disney movies, a March Madness Tournament, and a Throwback Thursday blog hop.
In honor of this occasion I wanted to share some of my favorite posts from the past year. These aren’t necessarily the most popular, but just ones that I’m particularly proud of.
Throwing a Beauty and the Beast Birthday Party
I love throwing themed parties, and this may have been one of my best ones yet! Especially all of the food and drink items we created. There was grey stuff, rose cupcakes, and the “burly and brawny” Gaston drink!
Busch Gardens Williamsburg Food and Wine Festival 2015
While this isn’t strictly Disney related, I did get the chance to visit the Williamsburg Busch Gardens Food and Wine festival. And while doing research for that trip I couldn’t find a lot of info on the festival – specifically, food pics and prices! So I made my own. Hopefully some people in the some position as me were able to find it and use it, as I did put a lot of work into it.
Making a Frozen Anna running costume
This is probably my favorite costume I’ve created for a race so far, because I tried to get all of the details right! I had the shirt, skirt, cape, and even used black compression socks that I painted to look like her boots. I gave all the details in how I put it together in this blog post.
Why FastPass Plus makes me less likely to visit Disney World as often
This one is a little controversial, I know, but I really do feel strongly about it. I’m not going to stop visiting all together, but I do feel like FP+ has hurt my enjoyment of the parks somewhat.
Into the Woods Review
I really enjoy movie reviews and got pretty in-depth with this one, as Into the Woods is my favorite musical of all time and I’m a big theater person.
Food and Wine Festival 2014
2014 was my very first time at Epcot’s Food and Wine festival, so I was excited to share a post all about what I ate there!
A Beginner’s Guide to Run Disney
I know there are lots of questions that come up about Disney races, so I tried my best to answer many of them for my readers. There is a part one and a part two to this guide.
Congrats on the big achievement! My blog is only a week old, so I have a long way to go! Nice job.
Thanks! That’s awesome that you just started a blog, I’ll have to check it out!
Happy blogversary!!!
Congrats on your 2 Year Blogging Anniversary!!! It’s always exciting to see how far you’ve come since you started blogging. I just made my 4 month. I can’t to get to two years! Keep up the great work!
