Why Use A Disney Vacation Planner

Planning a vacation takes so much time and energy. I have done it with and without a vacation planner, and let me tell you, the difference is huge! Having someone who knows all the ins and outs and who can guide you through the whole process step by step, is amazing. You will never plan another vacation by yourself!

Fall Tablescape with the At Home Store

It’s no secret that fall is my favorite season! The cooler weather, the leaves on the ground, pumpkin spice everything, and of course fall Decor! I absolutely love decorating for every season. So as soon as you enter my house, you can’t help but notice it’s fall!

Disney’s Moana~Official Trailer!

Three thousand years ago, the greatest sailors in the world voyaged across the vast Pacific, discovering the many islands of Oceania. But then, for a millennium, their voyages stopped – and no one knows exactly why. From Walt Disney Animation Studios comes “Moana,” a sweeping, CG-animated feature film about an adventurous teenager who sails out on a daring mission to save her people.

If you answered yes to those questions, chances are you have heard of Groupon. Groupon is an awesome way to save you money on everything from home goods to books to toys, and so much more!

The Swan Princess: Princess Tomorrow, Pirate Today!

**Sony Home Video provided me with some of the materials I used in this Blog Post/Giveaway. The opinions I share are my own.** The Swan Princess: Princess Tomorrow, Pirate Today is now out on DVD from Sony Home Entertainment! In the brand new original animated film, Princess Alise is training to be the perfect royal but in her heart all she wants to do is sail the seven seas as a swashbuckling pirate!

Hunger Is~Help Make A Difference!

Sometimes between the meals, snacks, and clean up, I lose track of the fact that I have MORE than enough food for my children. As what seems to be a daily hassle of cooking for many moms and dads out there, it is easy to forget how fortunate we are. My kids are going to bed with a full belly, sometimes overfed, and so am I. This is not the case for many American families.

National Breakfast Month

September is National Breakfast month, and we all know how important a good breakfast can be! As a busy mom of three, breakfast is one of our busier times, but I still take the time each morning to ensure my kids get a healthy start to their day!

Exciting Kings Dominion 2017 Update!
