It’s May the 4th and my social media is BLOWING UP with Star Wars posts! As a Star Wars fan I am totally loving it. Last year I went to a wine dinner for Skywalker Vineyards. I even Disneybounded as C3PO (and forgot to get a picture! I am still kicking myself for it!) I even wore awesome C3PO shoes from ShopDisney that I got a while back! This year is a little more low key for me so I’ve been living through all the fun Star Wars inspired posts and have spent the day working on my Star Wars Mouse Ears which has really put me in the mood…

After my recent blog post about doing all the rides in Disneyland in one day, I’ve gotten so many questions from everyone.  Questions like “Is that even possible?”, “How?”, and my personal favorite — “Why?”.  But one of the other questions I get is about how we managed to plan and keep track of everything on the day of. Since a bunch of people asked, I figured I’d share with all of you one trick we used to make sure we hit everything.  We came up with this half-sheet checklist to use throughout the day to make sure we didn’t miss anything.  (The mid-day heat has a way of making…

Lately I’ve been doing some research on staying off property for a Walt Disney World vacation. Although there are many benefits to staying on property it’s not the only choice out there. I recently came across Top Villas am seriously obsessed with some of their properties in Orlando that have some really fun Disney themed rooms! Top Villas has many luxury properties in Orlando (and other places worldwide as well!) Trust me, there are tons of beautiful pictures of swimming pools and nice views – but naturally I had to scout out all of the locations that had Disney themed rooms. Although I haven’t stayed at any of these properties…

The internet seems to be pretty upset over the loss of Heimlich’s Chew Chew Train with the announcement of Marvel moving in. Seems like these fans have come out of nowhere…but did they truly love Heimlich? Most of our friends and family know how much Randy and I truly loved this ride. Tell me this… Did they wait a few ride cycles to get their own train? Or ride Heimlich in the rain? Did they get stuck on the ride and feel totally okay with it? And ride in the front? And the back? (while pondering the allegorical nature of Heimlich’s Chew Chew Train  no less) And fill a whole…

As glasses wearer and Disneybound enthusiast I sometimes find myself feeling like my look isn’t exactly perfect because my glasses don’t quite work. Then it hit me – THERE ARE SO MANY FUN CHARACTERS WITH GLASSES! I’m not sure why it took me so long to realize this but I recently did the Warby Parker Home Try-On and realized a few of the frames I had picked out reminded me of Disney characters. At that point I started to go down the rabbit hole of trying to find glasses that could work for Disneybounding which is what led me to this post. There are definitely a lot of places I…

In one of my recent posts about what to pack on a Disney vacation I listed comfortable shoes as a must-have item. Many of my recent Disneyland trips have been more laid back so my go to shoe has been the glitter Keds by Kate Spade (available at Kate Spade or Keds.) Since I’m local to Disneyland and typically don’t spend full days there I’ve been starting to explore some wild shoe options.   Disclosure: Some of the links in this post may be affiliate links, meaning, at no cost to you, I may earn a small commission if you click through and make a purchase.

Recently I’ve been getting a lot of comments from friends and followers on social media that it looks like I’m at Disneyland every single day. As fun as that could be – the truth is that I’ve done a major overhaul on my social media. Many of you may not know that I work a traditional 8-5 type of job but while I’m at work my social media accounts are doing the heavy lifting and posting for me! In fact, many of you may know me from Instagram but now that I have a better process in place for managing my accounts I am more active on Pinterest and Facebook…

In the past few months I can’t tell you how many apps I’ve tried and been disappointed in. With so many apps requiring you to pay for every single little thing that don’t seem to be worth the trouble. As I continue to explore more recommendations and try out more apps I feel like I have a better idea of what I really need in any given app. I’ve compiled a list of my top 5 apps that have really made my social media stand out! All of these apps have free versions with paid additions if you need more advanced capabilities. All of these apps are worth a try…

With PixarFest and Pixar Pier quickly approaching at Disney’s California Adventure and Toy Story Land opening at Disney’s Hollywood Studios there has never been a more perfect time to pick up some Pixar themed accessories! Although I’m still trying to nail down what I want to get for my personal Pixar themed outfits, I wanted to share some of the fun things that I’ve been finding online. The items below are a mixture of items from Etsy, ShopDisney, and Amazon. If you haven’t picked out some Pixar accessories I hope this helps you find some fun things!
