Well, we’re having a birthday! And all birthdays deserve a celebration, don’t you think? 🙂

As I mentioned on Friday, this year, our birthday celebration has two parts. First, we’re paying it forward with charity donations for any Disney vacations booked or transferred during the month of December.

And secondly, we’re having a giveaway of course! 🙂 Above you can see a super Disney vacation prize pack, that is perfect to take on your trip. With a fun lightweight tote bag, you’ll have room for the travel cup, sticker activity book, autograph-size Mickey notebook, Mickey pens, and lanyard. I even threw in a packet of glow-in-the-dark bracelets to keep everyone happy while waiting for the fireworks. 🙂 Oh…and there’s your very own plush Mickey along for the ride too! Read more

Wordless Wednesday: An Alternative to Disney Thrills

Karen Disney Fun, Wordless Wednesday , , , , 1 Comment


If you’re not into the thrills of Space Mountain or Tower of Terror, the teacups in Fantasyland are a great alternative! And if you don’t like riding the teacups, then enjoy walking around and taking in the scenery.

Find out how the FREE services of a Disney World travel agent can make planning your Disney vacation simple and stress-free!  And during the month of December, YOUR vacation can help one of 8 wonderful charities! Ask me how!

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.

Ohana Chicken Wings (Mouse on the Mind)

Your car needs a new motor. Your husband lost his job. The IRS has slapped you with a giant fine. Life costs money. Sometimes more than you have. And at that point, a flight to Orlando (not to mention on-site lodging and daily Park tickets) simply isn’t an option.

When money is tight and a visit to the Mouse House just isn’t in the cards, I like to make a little Disney magic in my kitchen. It’s easier than walking to Orlando, cheaper than eating out, and more fun than eating the same old brussels sprouts and dry chicken breast. Read more
