Terrific Tuesdays: All Star Movies Resort

15972648_10154370838966234_2153870736855705699_oI guess old habits die hard, we generally stay at the All Stars, mainly because the majority of our time is spent places other than the hotel room.

Wordless Wednesday: It’s a Wide World of Disney Sports!

I fantasize about making reservations at Disney a week or month in advance and showing up without a care in the world, without attempting to book those FastPass+ options or dining experiences. Maybe someday. Maybe when the kids are older. Maybe when we have more disposable income. Maybe if we’re ever able to make multiple trips to Walt Disney World each year.

So why do I plan so far ahead, you ask? Read more
