Get ready to be transported to a world of wonder and imagination!

My new artwork over my workspace is a print of a mural from the first attraction I ever experienced at Walt Disney World in 1991, and it's a constant reminder to dream big.

Anyone know what attraction it's from?

I am so proud to be a part of this agency. When choosing a Disney planner, in addition to vetting experience and referrals for the planner , you should also consider if the agency the planner is affiliated with is Earmarked by Disney.

My host agency is not only Earmarked, but has reached Diamond status level. This means that their affiliates, including myself, provide the ultimate experience to the families we plan for.

This year's Festival of the Arts at Epcot features a lot of artwork showcasing Mickey and Minnie in their retro space suits from the 80's and 90's.

Snuck in a quick Disney resort trip!
There are so many fun things outside the parks to explore both on and off Disney property.
Staying in a Walt Disney Resort always guarantees a magical vacation no matter what activities you do.

Merry Christmas from (in my opinion) the merriest place on earth.

Room tour of Little Mermaid room at Art of Animation Resort.

Love the intense theming!! (and the music playing when arriving in the room).

Disney with family is always magical, but a "friendcation" is all kinds of fun!! Mix that with a "runcation" and it's extra special

This past weekend my theater buddies and I completed the runDisney Wine and Dine 10k. This was my first race experience where I stopped for character photos AND did virtual queue for Guardians of the Galaxy Cosmic Rewind *while* doing the race.

Art of Animation is a new highlight resort for me and I had my first Cinderella's Royal Table experience and rode Tron for the first time.

Can not wait for my next trip! I perfected my itinerary planning and can't wait to help you plan your next Disney vacation.

24/10/2023

Even if you've planned Disney on your own before, hand over the hard stuff to me and I'll take care of it all!!

Spend your time focused on the fun stuff!

So excited to run the Wine and Dine 10k next month at Walt Disney World!

The 10k is Beauty and the Beast themed, and for the first time, I'm running as a group costume!! My friends and I will be going as The Silly Girls, aka Bimbettes 🤣.

Bimbettes merch does not exist on ShopDisney, so I'm grateful for Lucyscustomgifts who created these adorable stickers that I stuck on 40oz tumblers and gifted to my running ladies, so we will be well hydrated while training and running the race.

Lucy creates so much amazing merch. I highly recommend for anyone planning a Disney resort visit. If you want something specific for your trip, reach out!

I also threw in my custom guided journals for the kiddos who will be joining us on our trip so they can document their Disney memories.

Link here for journal: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B099BZRZRS/ref=cm_sw_r_as_gl_apa_gl_i_J2B1YHN7JTD6DSNM889Y?linkCode=ml1&tag=pacesandpi005-20&fbclid=PAAaYrMmo-T1gEY6h2KuCOEUlg-J01LvApr0KtGiGpdPDLFJ-_xlLPE7HME7Q

I know a lot of families go all out with personalized shirts and/or bags, waist packs, etc. on their Dinsey vacations.

Lucy does custom products that are super cute and unique and she can work with you if there is something specific you want. (I'll be posting my custom Lucy merch next week!)

Reach out to her (after you book with me) to help plan your ultimate Disney trip look!

Custom Creations at night by this Mom and Nurse by day!

Just got back from an amazing RunDisney weekend with my mom. The only time I'll get up at 2:15 am is to race through Epcot as the sun rises. 🌞 👟

Experienced the much acclaimed Topolino's Terrace character breakfast. And took full advantage of all the amenities at our resort, Port Orleans Riverside.

If you are entertaining the idea of a RunDisney race... do it!!

There are a few logistics you need to take into account when planning a Disney "runcation", and as an Authroized Disney Travel planner, I can help plan the perfect trip.

to February 1991 (32 years ago!).
My first visit to Walt Disney World.
Mickey's Character Carvavale was a show/meet and greet at the entrance to Epcot's World Showcase. Complete with Roger Rabbit singing "Hot, Hot, Hot".

What a time to be alive.
