May the 4th be with you ๐
Did you know it doesn't cost you anything extra to book with me?
May the 4th be with you ๐
Can you imagine a more perfect way to greet the morning??
A friend shared this-... I couldn't resist!
I'm the Queen of Hearts with a Gaston moon and an Evil Queen rising ๐๐ธโค
Who are you??
Currently dreaming of caramel heaven in EPCOT ๐คค๐
Have you ever had freshly made caramel corn, or just that stuff from the cracker jack box? I promise that the daily made Werther's caramel popcorn in the Germany pavilion's Karamell-kuche is a GAME CHANGER!! Everything else here is pretty great too ๐
Fun fact about me: The castle mosaics in Cinderella Castle are my favorite pieces of art in Walt Disney World, and this panel is my favorite scene ๐ฅฐ๐งโโ๏ธโจ๏ธ๐ฐ
Any guesses why?? ๐
Yes, I do identify as "the Fairy Godmother", but I should share why exactly I feel that way!
On top of being a Disney Travel Agent, I've also spent the last half decade working in the wedding industry. I started out in bridal sales, and eventually started my own wedding planning company! Throughout the years people have commonly known me as "the Fairy Godmother".
I identify with the Fairy Godmother so much because we both LOVE to do whatever we can to bring people to their Happily Ever After, whether that is a beautiful gown, a dream wedding, or the perfect vacation ๐ฅฐ
There is nothing she wouldn't do for her Cinderella's happiness, and I feel much the same! How lucky am I to be a part of something that brings so much joy to do many people??
If you ever find yourself wishing you could just wave a wand and find yourself in Disney World... well, I'm only a DM away ๐

THE LETTER:
I traveled near and far this year,
To try and find you some Christmas cheer!
From Fredericksburg, to Baton Rouge,
Dallas, Charlotte, New Orleans too,
Around the world in Orlando,
Searched top to bottom, head to toe,
Then Ian suggested a helpful tip:
"Why not take mom and sister on a girl's lakehouse trip? "
"What a grand idea! " I said with glee, "a trip to the lake, how special THAT would be!
BUT... here's the thing, my mom and sister,
We're going to...
LAKE BUENA VISTA!!!
My mom and sister are two of my best friends in the whole world! I love them so much, and my mom hasn't been able to go back to Disney since before Animal Kingdom existed ๐ณ so it was definitely time to bring them both back! Happy holidays to you and yours, and I hope you're as blissfully, deliriously happy as the three of us right now ๐
WE'RE GOING TO DISNEY WORLD!
Anyone else want to run away to Animal Kingdom and become a tree? No? Just me? ๐
DiVine is probably my favorite performer on property. She's such an unexpected surprise for so many, adding a healthy sprinkle of magic to their Animal Kingdom experience! Can you spot her?
Hangin' out with these beautiful ladies! ๐๐๐
Today we're eating at Toothsome Chocolate Emporium and Savory Feast Kitchen on Universal City Walk! As you can see here, their milkshakes bring EVERYONE to the yard ๐
The only problem with visiting EPCOT is that I need to figure out how to grow a second stomach just to eat ALL the things!
A visit from the lion dancers in China is said to bring good luck and good fortune ๐
Hopefully that good luck extends our ability to finish drinking around the world showcase today!
.
Spent this morning in France. Might visit Japan later, idk ๐
Every day that we're here I'm continually finding Cast Members who LOVE what they do, and who go above and beyond what's expected of them because they are so passionate about their craft ๐
SO grateful for all that they do to bring the magic!!
at was a WHOLE mood this morning ๐๐๐ I cannot recommend this place strongly enough! Favorites included the steak and egg frittes and those heavenly crispy fried Mac and cheese bites ๐ง๐ณ๐ฅฉ
Rest day at and we're waiting for to begin! Cirque de Soleil has always been on my bucket list, and I'm so excited to finally experience it ๐
Another day in with the love of my life ๐
According to my husband, Animal Kingdom is the most romantic of the ... and it's SO easy to see why he feels that way! The immersive theming is beyond gorgeous, don't you agree? We had an extra magical moment visiting with one of the Cast Members who decorate Animal Kingdom and bring it to life, Mr. Jamie!
Which part of Animal Kingdom is most beautiful to you? I'm in love with Africa, myself!
Just a snippet of our day at ๐ฅฐ
Can't begin to put into words what a magical vacation we're already having, and we're only on day 3 of 13!
POP QUIZ! Where in Walt Disney World am I right now??
Our current view while waiting for our dining reservation at in .lodge ! This is definitely my DREAM resort ๐๐ฒ๐ถ
Which Disney resort is on YOUR list?
'Twas the night before Disney,
And all through the house
Everyone was excited,
To visit "The Mouse"!
The luggage was packed,
In a line by the door,
Preparing to go to
Orlando once more!
We laid down in bed,
Our hearts all a'gleaming,
Too amped up to notice
When we started dreaming
Of Mickey, and dole whips,
And live shows galore,
Of magical memories,
And oh so much more!
So thrilling to know that
Wherever we roam,
Returning to Disney
Is returning to home ๐
Ah, sweet chocolate ๐๐ซ๐ฅฐ
One of the places I'm excited to revisit is the Ghirardelli Soda Fountain in Disney Springs! Disney has so many bells and whistles for everyone, it's easy for gems like this place to go unnoticed, so I thought I'd give it a shout out ๐
There's nothing like grabbing a Ghirardelli hot cocoa and talking a relaxing walk through the Disney Springs Christmas Tree Stroll! The Stroll is great on its own, but if you want to boost the magic, there's no way better than hot cocoa โ๐ซ๐

Can't wait to try it!!

So Homecomin' was originally going to be our arrival day dinner, but we switched it to a rest day at the last second! Definitely gonna need a rest day to digest all of those delicious carbs lol ๐
Have you tried/ would you ever try Homecomin'?
We can't wait to try this one out! Do you sometimes get an itch to experience the nostalgia of days gone past? Ever feel the need to share a milkshake with your loved one under a starry sky, while watching old black and white movies? This blast from the past may be right up your alley, no time machine needed ๐
Would you book Sci Fi Dine In for your next vacation? I can make that happen for you!
https://vm.tiktok.com/TTPd2exLP4/
are you a fan of the drive in?
When you're on Disney TikTok you find the coolest videos ๐
P.S. he's still beloved by millions and millions of children to this day!

Did YOU know you can see a Cirque du Soleil show at Walt Disney World? It's one of our upcoming plans I'm looking forward to the most!!

I've been editing my rough draft dining plans for our December trip, and I realized that I've been stuck in a rut, trying to recreate meals and memories of vacations past ๐ซ๐๐ง๐ฆ๐ง๐พ. It's definitely good to have favorites, but with all of the new and exciting options coming to WDW, I certainly don't want to put myself in one box!!
Space 220, Steakhouse 71, and so many options I just haven't gotten to try yet are calling my name!
This trip I'm gonna CHALLENGE myself to try new places and meals AT LEAST 80% of our stay. Of course we'll still do our tried and true traditions (like ice cream for breakfast on our first Magic Kingdom day๐จ๐๐) but I wanna experience as many new (to me) Disney dining options as I can manage! Overall it can only make me a better and smarter Fairy Godmother, right?
SO... I challenge YOU to make a change in your Disney (or daily!) routine, that you believe will be for the better ๐ What are some changes you could make?
