Celebrating Birthdays with Disney

How much more magical can you get than Disney?   Well none, in my opinion.   So, where would be a more perfect place to celebrate a birthday? 

Everyone in my family has celebrated something at Walt Disney World.  Our first visit was for my son’s fifth birthday, but we had not yet been clued in on celebrations.  We learned on that trip and made sure to take advantage of it on following trips.  We returned to Walt Disney World when Clay was 10, in 2009, to celebrate again.  This time we did it right.  Everyone in our group wore an “I’m Celebrating” button.  Clay, of course, wore his special birthday button.  Everywhere we went people were singing Happy Birthday. It wasn’t just cast members either.  Total strangers were singing!  The best part was seeing shy little Clay’s red face.  He had never experienced that much attention all at once! Read more

I am a huge fan of the Key to the World cards at Walt Disney World. For those of us who use our debit cards for everyday purchases and rarely ever have cash on hand, it is a real convenience to carry that one card to make all our purchases. For all guests staying at a resort on Disney property, the Key to the World card is the most convenient way to pay for things while at the parks. Read more

Karen grew up in the Boston area and traveled to Disney World many times with her parents and sister. Always staying at the Fort Wilderness Cabins gave the trips a feeling of a home away from home. It also started the tradition of attending the Hoop Dee Doo Review on each trip! Somehow that show sparked her interest in the Disney College Program. Which she did in the fall of 2002, working as a hostess @ Captain Jacks in Downtown Disney. Now as an adult, Karen finds herself traveling to the parks on a yearly basis! Photography has always been a hobby of Karen’s, but over the past few years it has become her passion. It’s even taken her to her favorite place! The Make a Wish Foundation sent a family to Disney for a week and Karen was lucky enough to be their photographer of choice! She got to tag along and photograph their memories being made. She hopes to get that experience again someday! You can find more of Karen’s photography on her site www.KPportraits.com.
