Need a last minute get away?

Beat the mid summer blues with a mid week getaway to Walt Disney World and enjoy all that the parks have to offer plus the amazing amenities of the Boardwalk Resort.

Are the value resorts right for your family?

Here’s what you’ll find (and won’t find) at Walt Disney World’s value resorts:

-Motel style accommodations (exterior facing doors except family suites at Art of Animation)
-Over the top theming in a variety of styles, most featuring beloved characters
-Food court dining options only (no sit down restaurants)
-Activity pools featuring outdoor games and activities led my cast members
-Pool bar at the activity pool
-Hot tubs and additional quiet pools throughout
-Primarily bus transportation (Pop Century and Art of Animation have Skyliner access)
-Walking/running trails through each resort
-No fitness center access
-Luggage storage for check in/check out days
-Helpful and friendly staff throughout the resort!

Swinging into a new week (and single digit school days left 🙌🏼) tomorrow!

Are your kids on summer vacation yet? What do your summer travel plans look like?

Here’s my hot take, are you ready for it?

You don’t need more than 1 day at Universal Studios Hollywood.

Not even die hard Super Nintendo or Harry Potter fans. Real estate in California is much tighter than Florida and the size of the park reflects that!

With the right strategy and planning (hi, that comes from me) Universal is a truly perfect one day experience for those with a day to spend in the Hollywood area (I’m looking at you LA port cruise departures!).

What do you think? Would you consider this add on to your Southern California trip? I’d do it again in a heartbeat!

This jazzed up popcorn was the perfect snack for waiting in line! Perfectly sweet and salty with some extra crunch from the M&M’s made every bite unique and kept us both coming back for more!

Listen friends. I know May-Cember is in full swing and we’re all dealing with the chaos of the end of the school year - but don’t forget how quickly the summer goes!

We’ll be getting school supply lists and measuring feet for new school shoes before we know it so carve out a few minutes now to make your vacation plans for this fall and winter before the best options book up!

The farther in advance you book, the better your price and selection will be!

Save this family vacation tip for your summer plans!

Pick a photo to recreate or a landmark to take a photo by each time you return to a vacation spot and watch the kids grow 👶🏼🧒🏼👦🏼🧑🏼

You can bet I’ll be recreating this (for fun and also taking a nice picture) shot from our last mommy-son trip to Disneyland! T minus 6 days and counting till we’re leaving on a jet plane!

When my son broke my heart and said he wanted to wear a Nintendo outfit instead of his Harry Potter robes on our visit to Universal Hollywood - I was lost! I knew I didn’t want to go for a graphic tee because I already had those outfits planned for later in the trip (and didn’t want to buy a shirt I wouldn’t wear beyond the trip - but I’ll save that soap box for another day!) so I turned to my good friend Google for casual Princess Peach inspired looks and landed on this version of her look in New Donk City.

Coming up with this one took me out of my comfort zone a little bit! I was not raised on Mario like so many of my fellow elder millennials - we played zero video games growing up so I don’t know the plots, the characters or much of anything beyond the basics overheard on the playground!

The time is here!

This package is everything you need for a perfect one on one trip with your middle big kiddo. Park admission, one of the most beautiful and relaxing resorts, food and drink, memory maker, travel protection and admission to one of the best special events of the year!

Can you imagine a better way to wrap up summer break before your kiddo heads back to school? I certainly can’t!

Who else loves a good theme? 🙋🏼‍♀️

I can’t resist an opportunity for theme outfits or group costumes - and Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party is no exception!

It’s one of the few opportunities for you to meet a favorite character, dressed as a favorite character!

Who would you dress up as for a visit to MNSSHP this year?!

See a pumpkin? It’s a party!

🗓️The fall festivities start even earlier this year (August 9) and tickets will be available in just 48 short hours!

👻New dance parties, an earlier parade, and more villains plus your favorite stage shows, the best seasonal treats and trick or treating sponsored by M&M & Mars…what more could you possibly ask for??

🎃This is hands down one of the best events that Walt Disney World puts on (even better than the Christmas party) and if you’ll be at Walt Disney World between August and October (thank you Daddy Iger for listening and NOT having a November 1 party so we can have our magical Halloween to Christmas transition back 🙌🏼) you want to build these tickets into your vacation spending plan!

✈️ Don’t have your trip planned yet?? Don’t fret! We still have 48 hours to put down your Walt Disney World package deposit and secure early ticket access for your preferred dates!

Have you been before? What’s your favorite part of MNSSHP?!

See a pumpkin? There’s a party!

Starting in late August the thrills and chills take over Disney’s California Adventure for Oogie Boogie Bash!

These are practically guaranteed to sell out the day that they are released, so if you’re interested in attending we need to chat like, yesterday!

🎟️ Due to the high demand for tickets, I will only be providing this booking service as an add on to an already booked package. I will not be taking ticket only orders for these events and all orders will be placed in the order in which I receive requests!

👻 Happy Haunting!

While we still don’t have word of dates I’m going to continue manifesting it into reality!

This super simple villain bound is perfect for Lady Tremaine vibes with roasting in a Victorian gown in late Florida summer heat! Not pictured, biker shorts to prevent chafing 😉

The best part is that this totally calls for an hair up moment that is going to keep you even cooler!

We’re calling this manifestation of a halfway to Halloween announcement today 😬

This Halloween baby wants to spend their birthday at the most magical Halloween party on earth - and they’re taking advantage of one of my greatest tips by staying at a Magic Kingdom area resort to take advantage of the convenient after party boat transportation!

Wilderness Lodge is one of the most beautiful resorts, especially at the holidays, and you’ll get to witness its transformation to a PNW winter wonderland with one of the most beautiful Christmas trees on property by staying a few days after Halloween!

10/10 will be recreating this photo on our one on one trip. Without hesitation.

He might be almost as tall as I am, but I don’t care! Last time we met Buzz Lightyear at Pixar Pier character interactions were still distanced so we couldn’t remake it, but I won’t fail this time!

Do you have a picture place or pose you recreate each time you visit? It such a fun way to document growth and changes in our families 🤍

Pixar characters make some of the most fun interactions. They’re so relatable and engaging and there are so many to meet!

All your favorites can be found year round at the Pixar Pier Band Shell and even more new characters can be met at Club Pixar at the Hollywood Backlot and the Pixar Pals Play Time Party at the Royal Theater in Fantasyland!

Which Pixar character would you be most excited to see? I want a Toy Story character dining!
