12710786_10102010119820834_8807873456292254306_oI had never been to Disney during the Springtime until last May. I completed my College Program in the fall and had taken vacations there in the fall or in February during the slow(er) season. We decided to plan around my birthday, my son’s 4th birthday, Mother’s Day, and as luck would have it, the Flower & Garden Festival was taking place during this time as well. Having experienced the Food & Wine Festival on previous occasions, I was excited for another trip around the world showcase full of new experiences. Read more

11222382_10101976653143324_8925704033166866635_oHave you ever been to Walt Disney World during the month of February? It’s often regarded as one of the best times of the year to visit due to low crowds and deep discounts. While it’s true that the gap between off season and peak season continues to grow less and less significant, you can bet on better conditions any time school is in session.  Read more

Disney with Little Ones: How Old is Too Old For a Stroller?

1097189_10101937237682224_7397468992761235270_oMy children have been to Walt Disney World two times so far: at ages 2 and 3 and again at 4 and 5. When we go back, they’ll be…you guessed it… ages 6 and 7. In planning our previous trips, the strollers were a no brainer but 6 and 7 year olds might look a little ridiculous in strollers that were intended for toddlers. My kids no longer use a stroller any other time – we don’t use it because they are lazy. Long days in the parks can be taxing on short little legs. The boys did their fair share of walking last time, but when they’d start to get grumpy, I was more than happy to chauffer them around in their multi-purpose strollers. Read more

12068682_10101924749139364_5277941644728971496_oPeople don’t have to know me for very long before they discover that I am a huge Disney enthusiast. From my pin boards on Pinterest, desktop backgrounds on my monitor at work, pictures of my kids in front of Cinderella Castle on my desk, to hearing me talk about our last (or next trip to WDW) and everything in between, it’s pretty obvious. Because of my widely know love for all things Disney, I get asked a certain question quite often. 

“Hey – we’re thinking about going to Disney. Where do we start?”  Read more

Disney with Little Ones: So Worth the Wait

12232819_10101907638264694_6412346602166058751_oI’m as much of a kid as anyone and I’ve always enjoyed doing character greetings. I’ve never requested an autograph but would jump at the chance to have my photograph taken with Ariel, Belle, Sully, or other favorites as a keepsake memory from various vacations. I’ll even admit that I’ve felt a little starstruck at times when meeting face characters, not quite sure what to say or how to have a memorable interaction. With all of that being said, I’ve never voluntarily waited in a long line to meet any character.  Read more
