In true “Always Disney Dreaming” fashion, I am always thinking ahead to our next Disney vacation – and a big part of my family’s trip planning is to make sure we pack plenty of shirts that show off our Disney spirit. It may be cliché, but we love a good Disney themed t-shirt every time […]
Disney’s Port Orleans Resort – Riverside is one of five properties in Walt Disney World’s collection of Moderate Resorts. Port Orleans – Riverside was designed for guests to feel as though they have been transported back in time to life in the small Louisiana towns built along the Mississippi River in the 19th Century. The entire resort […]
One of my favorite pastimes with my kids is baking. They have been by my side in the kitchen ever since they were toddlers, and they still enjoy helping me whip up sweet treats for birthdays and holidays and all of the ordinary days in between. Lately, though, the kids have taken over in the […]
In a previous post, I shared links for drawing tutorials that my kids really enjoyed last summer. This next summer activity was a huge hit in our household; quite possibly our favorite! I considered saving it for last in this series, but I’m too excited to wait any longer to talk about it. I think […]
The first few weeks of my children’s summer vacation fly by effortlessly every year. Early morning alarms are no longer needed, everyone is thankful for the extra time to sleep in and relax, days are easily filled with activities they haven’t had the time to do during the school year, and heading to the local […]

As a result, tens of thousands of Cast Members were furloughed or laid off in the months that ensued. It was a devastating time for everyone impacted, but the Disney community is nothing if […]
Dessert is kind of a big deal in our household. I don’t think I can remember a day that has ever ended without a little something sweet after dinner. And dessert while we’re on vacation? Well, I can’t lie – we may or may not indulge in sugary treats multiple times a day. After all, […]
My kids are now 15, 13, and 10, and I think it is safe to say they have outgrown all things Disney Junior. What they have not yet outgrown (and secretly I hope that they never do) is their love of cartoons. Though they seldom agree on what to watch on TV, they will always […]
My kids have recently developed a passion for trivia. They always seem to be on a quest to learn new fun facts, in any way, shape, or form they can obtain them. I’ve lost count of the number of times they have checked out (and renewed) the National Geographic collection of Weird But True books […]
