Why I made Disney a big part of 2015

Year after year, I’ve had opportunities to visit Walt Disney World Resort and recently some at Disneyland. There were some times when I got to go with the family, other times were on my own or with Randy. In the last year, all of those experiences happened within a 12 month period. Our family ended 2014 and…

A Disney On Ice-Inspired Elsa

Not to outdo our big #DisneySide party last weekend, Jordan and I also traversed through messy post-snow highways to see one of the final St. Louis showings of Frozen Disney on Ice. As I’ve mentioned before, Jordan has realized a connection with Elsa. In the movie, the snow queen’s frozen powers lead her to hide from the…

Sharing our #DisneySide with a pile of kids

So many special occasions in one weekend

My head is spinning just thinking of everything we accomplished in one weekend. Just as we headed into the weekend, I surprised the kids with a chance to attend a two-day music festival in our town. It’s something they’ve had a chance to attend almost every year, but I didn’t expect us to have the…

A moment to remember

For three days during our Disney trip, we went to bed late enjoying the late closing times at the Disney World parks and woke up early to snag the early opening hours. The extended morning and night hours are only for people who stay in Disney resorts. We love riding the rides with shorter lines…

Happy Halloween Disney style

I’m the room parent in both kids’ Halloween parties today… So I thought I’d share a Halloween story before I go to bed and rest up for our spooky day. I wanted to share a few more stories about the awesome Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party we attended last week. The fun started the…
