Are you ever in Disney and your friends suddenly grab you and say, “Becky, you need to buy that!”? Well, that’s a pretty common occurrence when I travel with my friends because we are pretty good at enabling each other. And of course more often than not, when they see something they think I would […]
Disney news, rumors, and round up: December 2018
It’s the most wonderful (and quite possibly busiest!) time of the year! Whatever you celebrate, Disney is a great place to be during the holidays. They’ve got lots of fun things going on down in the theme parks, but if you’re more the type to stay at home and watch Christmas movies and drink hot […]
Character spotlight: Belle
I don’t care what age you are, meeting the characters is a ton of fun! Belle is one of my favorites to meet, as she is my favorite princess. This blog post is meant to give you lots of info about where to meet Belle in the parks, what to say to her, and anything […]
Disney Musicals: Beauty and the Beast
Since so many Disney movies involve music, singing, and dancing, it’s probably no surprise that I’m a big fan of musical theater in addition to Disney.

Belle Disney Bound
This week is the opening weekend for the production of Beauty and the Beast that I’m involved in, so in honor of that I’ve decided I’m going to try and share lots of Beauty and the Beast related posts this week! It is one of my favorite movies after all, and I know lots of […]
Disney mug of the month: Chip
I had been wanting this mug for awhile, so I was really excited when I finally got it, thanks to my Pixie Dust Pal! Beauty and the Beast is my favorite Disney movie, and Chip is just too cute – so when they came out with a ceramic Chip mug, it went on my wish […]
6 Great Disney Dads
Too often in Disney films, mom is unfortunately out of the picture for one reason or another. Because of that we see a lot of Disney dads – some might be better father figures than others, but many who love their kids and grow and learn from their experiences. In honor of Father’s Day I […]
Be Our Guest review
One of the most difficult dining reservations to get in all of Disney World is dinner at Be Our Guest. If you’re aiming for this, you’ll want to be ready right at your 180 day mark and be flexible with the date or time you’re willing to eat there. Hopefully if you do this things […]
