I am so, so happy to say that June was an awesome month! If you follow my blog regularly you know that I wasn’t saying that for most of the months this year. There had been some rough times earlier in 2017, but things finally feel like they’ve totally turned around. This month I’ve been […]
An Inside Out pumpkin
For the past five years I’ve come up with a little Halloween tradition for myself – painting a pumpkin. I’m not a huge fan of carving so I decided to paint instead, and I’ve been doing it on plastic pumpkins so I can keep them around in the future. Every year I add a new […]
Best spots for character photos at Disney World
Welcome to this month’s Blogorail Red Loop. Today we are sharing the best photo spots at Disney. One of the best ways to remember your vacation is take lots of photos! While I take plenty of photos of the details at Disney, sometimes it’s more difficult for me to get photos of myself and whoever […]
Disney news, rumors, and round up – October 2016
What a whirlwind the past month has been! We were on vacation in Europe for about 11 days. We returned on the 26th and I’m still not fully adjusted back to this time zone. I’m not complaining though – it has me waking up early, which is unusual for me! While we were there we […]
Coordinating outfits for Disney trips + giveaway!
I received free shirts from Zazzle in exchange for this review, but all opinions are my own. When you walk around Disney World, one thing you’re sure to see is families in matching shirts. Maybe a whole crew in bright orange shirts that say “Smith Family vacation” or shirts with matching Mickey heads. However, […]
September 2015 monthly round up
While you’re reading this, I’ll be hanging out in Disneyland! September is a very exciting month for me (at least the first half of it!) and I know I will have plenty to share once I return. Of course a recap of the Disneyland half marathon too. Is there anything in particular about my trip […]
My Core Memories (from Inside Out)
Inside Out was a movie that really got me thinking about a lot of things, which is something that I love in the film. One of the things that I was really intrigued by was the idea of core memories. This post may contain a few spoilers, so if you haven’t seen the movie what […]
July 2015 monthly round up
Even though I haven’t been to Disney lately, the past few weeks have felt like they were full of planning! I registered for the Glass Slipper Challenge again next February and also booked flights and a hotel for that trip. And in just a couple of days we are going to be able to make […]
Inside Out Review
A number of other blogs that I’ve read said that Inside Out might very well be their favorite Pixar movie. And I have to say, I wasn’t disappointed. I don’t know that I would rank it as my #1 (there are so many great Pixar movies!) but it’s definitely towards the top – probably in […]
January 2015 Monthly Round Up
Wow, we’ve reached 2015! I hope you all had a wonderful holiday season and a great start to your year. Christmas is my favorite holiday of all, but I have to say that my second favorite is probably New Year’s. I love the idea of starting fresh, and looking forward at all that will come […]
