Happy happy weekend everyone! The Disney Blog-World was in overdrive this week: there were so many great things to read and enjoy I had a hard time getting anything else done (but who really needs to do laundry or groceries, right?). So let’s get to it: sit back, relax and let’s visit some of our favorite Disney Blog friends to see what they were up to this week:

Chip and Co. writers were a busy bunch as usual. Ken shared a favorite of his (and mine) in Best Things I Love About Disney – The Carousel Of Progress and then Mike discussed celebrating Birthdays at Walt Disney World: Let the Fun Begin! Lastly, Brenda had another touching Wednesday with Walt: A Powerful Force. Be sure to read this wonderful glimpse into a very special man.

Our friend Disney Bird continues sharing her Disney vacation planning. This week she discussed Disney Training as well her plans for her daughter’s autograph book/journal: Another Use for the Trip Journal

Disney Dispatch ALWAYS provides me with a chuckle. This week I learned about some great MouseMerch that is going to have me approach souvenir shopping in a whole new way. And I thoroughly enjoyed Ashley’s column, Because I Stinkin’ Love Disney World, where she shared her recent experiences at 50’s Prime Time Cafe. Anyone who has tried to “mind their manners” while there will appreciate her challenge…

Disney Driven Life had a couple of articles that I especially enjoyed this week. FINANCIAL ADVICE FROM WALT DISNEY offered more insight into how inspirational Walt Disney can be. And then WHY DISNEY IS MAGICAL discusses…..just that. Have kleenex ready for this one.

I always thought I loved Disney…until I saw this post from Disney Guru: A Collection of Dreams and Inspiration. I feel like a rank amateur now.

Wondering how the construction is going on with the Fantasyland expansion? Disney Parks Blog offered a glimpse into how things are looking with the Beast Castle: Behind the Scenes With Walt Disney Imagineers

And for those of you who are always trying to figure out which Disney promotion will help you save the most money (which is, of course, all of us…) be sure to read this from Meltdown Free Disney: When Is A Special Offer Really Special?

And let’s end things with this fun…and though-provoking post from Stuart at WDW Fan Zone. Stuart asks, What Disney Attraction Best Describes Your Personality? Think about it! I am still trying to figure out mine! What about you? 🙂

That’s it for this week Disney Friends! Hope your weekend is truly magical!

Happy April Disney Friends! Hope your weekend and month are starting off great! The day after April Fool’s Day is filled here with lots of great Disney posts that are no joke: they are awesome! Hope you enjoy them as much as I did finding them for you! 🙂

Wow, Chip and Co. had tons of great information this week (as usual of course). This article about the Character Meet and Greets at Walt Disney World will be helpful to you as you stalk your favorite characters around the parks. What about laundry on vacation? Is it a Yes or No for you? Disney World Planning 101 – Doing Laundry versus Packing a Full Suitcase may help you decide. And this article from Lisa is a must read as you prepare for your trip: Whew My Dogs are Tired…Disney World Walking Tips

Disney Driven Life had two articles that really made me smile this week. DISNEY WORLD JOBS I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE is something that I think about ALL the time. 🙂 And any of you who have (or had) little ones, will appreciate I’VE CREATED A MONSTER

Disney World’s theme this year is all about memories. Disney Guru shares a very special one: The Most Magical Dining Experience

Speaking of memories, this post from Magical Mouse Schoolhouse kind of sums up what many of us love about Disney when it comes to our children: Cinderella’s Royal Table

WDW Fan Zone had tons of amazing, helpful, and interesting articles this week! This one, from Stuart, really hit home for me, as it will with anyone who dreams of moving to be closer to Disney World: I Believe In The Promised Land. And for those of you who are planning a Disney trip with a group, you won’t want to miss these two great posts about that very thing: Tips to Help Keep Your Group Happy and Traveling to Disney With a Pack. Lastly, Lisa provides some very valuable information for any of you who will be doing some Disney World Packing for a Toddler.

That’s it for this week everyone! I hope you have a truly magical weekend! 🙂

Happy Saturday Disney Friends! It’s time for my favorite post of the week, when I get to share some of the really interesting, helpful, cool, and just plain fun posts from some of the many very talented Disney bloggers. It’s so hard to narrow it down to just a handful each week! But I did my best….enjoy!

Let’s start off talking about visiting the parks with our friends at Chip and Co Lisa had some thoughts about What to Bring to the Disney Theme Parks and then Brenda chimed in with suggestions if you don’t want to carry it all around with you: Disney World Planning 101 – Renting a Locker

By now I’m sure you have heard about the plans for using the FastPass system with the new Mickey meet and greet area. Here is some additional information about how it may work from The Disney Blog: Will Mickey and Minnie Photo-Op say ‘No’ to Late Guests?

It doesn’t feel like spring around Maryland this weekend, but it surely is at Walt Disney World! Disney Driven Life shares some details from EPCOT’S 2011 FLOWER AND GARDEN FESTIVAL

Have you been to the Hoop Dee Doo Musical Revue? I haven’t yet, but Amanda at Disney Every Day recently did, and shares the fun: My First Visit to Disney’s Hoop Dee Doo Musical Review Dinner Show

If you have little ones, you will appreciate this helpful post from Growing Up Disney: Guest Post: 3 Kids in Diapers or Pull-ups

I love Kelly’s series on Disney Guru called Money Saver Monday! This week in Steals & Deals she discusses how to get some of Disney World’s most delicious food items….for less money!

How do you unpack and stay organized once you get to your hotel room? The Relocated Tourist has some excellent suggestions: Organizing Your Resort Room

Another food “event” I have never tried….but now really want to….is discussed by Travelin’ Mamas: Garden View Tea Room at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort and Spa

This post from Your Highway in the Sky was one that I found extremely interesting, and if you have little girls, I think you may as well:Is the Disney Princess Passe?

Lastly, I was out and about in Disney Blog Land again this week! 🙂

Disney Guru had a review of my new ebook: Magical Meals: A Guide to Affordable Dining at Walt Disney World

And my monthly post over at WDW Fan Zone was also published: Finding Magic in Those Disney Details. I hope you’ll stop by and say “Hi!”

Have a safe, warm, and magical weekend! 🙂
