Blasting into the weekend!! Woohoo!! If you haven't watch fireworks over the lanterns what are you waiting for!?! They both add a magical element to each other.... and you can line up for the lantern PhotoPass too!! The line was pretty short during the fireworks and moved rather quickly!

Warm hugs all around last night! My daughter and I had a great trip to Atlanta but it's tough separting the family. We were all so happy to be reunited. And I made it home just in time to head straight to my son's baseball game! Only 37 days until we head on a family road trip to DC and some other stops and 92 days until we are back at Disney!! Anyone else do one on one vacations with their kids? I'd love to hear what you've done.

Are you and early bird or a night owl? I love to see the Train Station all lit up! (And the Castle, and Main Street... I could clearly continue on.) I love early mornings in the park with short waits and the sun (usually) shining brightly, but there is something about nighttime too. So hard to decide.

Disney's free transportation is one of those things that just helps make our vacation easy. Not that their aren't moments that the Monorail doesnt breakdown or the bus is late or crowded. We may have also taken a few Lyft rides too, but overall it's so easy to let Disney do the driving for us! Definitely missing it as I navigate a huge city. Are you Team Disney Transportation or do you rent a car and drive yourself?

Happy Sunday! Today's a special day for me and my little Diva! We head out tonight for a Mommy and Me trip to Atlanta. She is so excited and finally says she knows we aren't heading to Disney.... but she did ask to pack her Buzz Lighyear dress and some ears. This pic was taken in 2017 when we wore our matching outfits to Epcot. It was the #bestdayever according to her after we met Joy and Sadness during late night EMH! We stopped at 10:55pm on our way our because she wanted one more picture and rushed to take this while was son was being cranky and just wanted to go back to the room. Memories like this are the best! Can't wait to create more!

I've been working our our September trip plans and trying to get some more Animal Kingdom time. The view of the Tree Of Life against the gorgeous blue sky is amazing! I really wish we could take a ride in Kilimanjaro Safaris this morning. My favorite part of the Safari is the lions? What's yours?

Dreaming of seeing this view again! So many friends heading to the parks this week to enjoy Happily Ever After and so much more!! Happy Friday everyone!

Yesterday was the last day of 2nd grade for my handsome little guy! Summer break is officially underway in our house! My kids are early riders though so already awake today and the weather is still rainy and not breaking into the 80s anywhere in the forecast. Both kids are ready outdoor time and pool days to start. What does your summer break look like?

And now they know!! My kids can finally start helping with the planning for our trip. The reveal last night had my son's normal underwhelming reactions and some of my daughter's giddiness. She's so excited about her MagicBand with "all the evils." I am absolutely in love with the bands!! I've been wanting the snack one since I first saw it. My son likes having all the Toy Story friends on his and my husband was actually excited to see Genie! I had hope the Grumpy one would be an option, but 2nd choice was a good one!! Cookies by our local grocery store. More in my stories including our milkshakes, hot dogs, and grey stuff meal.

#ToyStoryTuesday seems like the perfect day to finally tell the the kids about our upcoming September trip!! It's one of the things we can all completely is agree is among our fave areas/things to do! Our countdown is at 101 days! I'm so happy to get this surprise out later this evening! What's your countdown? 📷 October 2018 Link in bio to #DisneyPhotoPass blog! #DisneyWorld #WaltDisneyWorld #DisneyBlog #disneyfamily #disneyblogger #disneymom #disneykids #familytravel #familytravelblog #disneytravel #disneytrip #disneyvacation #magickingdom #epcot #animalkingdom #hollywoodstudios #toystoryland #toystory #SlinkyDog #slinkydogdash #vacationsurprise

Heigh ho, heigh ho it's off to work I go. I have a little bit of the Monday blues but I have a short work week this and next so it'll be ok! I wish I could be off to the last day of the Flower & Garden Festival. I'm really hoping for a spring trip next year! Do you have favorite topiaries you love to see? I like seeing Snow White and the dwarfs and Beauty and the Beast! 📷 April 2016 Link in bio to #DisneyPhotoPass blog! #DisneyWorld #WaltDisneyWorld #DisneyBlog #disneyfamily #disneyblogger #disneymom #disneykids #familytravel #familytravelblog #disneytravel #disneytrip #disneyvacation #magickingdom #epcot #animalkingdom #flowerandgardenfestival #heighho #FreshEpcot #snowwhiteandthesevendwarfs

I love this fountain in front of Spaceship Earth! I'm hoping we can get one more family picture in front of it this fall before it's reimagined. I get nervous seeing all the construction walls going up at Epcot. Change is definitely inevitable and I'm excited for the new entry area. It looks amazing in the renderings that have been released. What changes are you looking forward to and which do you not prefer? 📷 October 2018 Link in bio to #DisneyPhotoPass blog! #DisneyWorld #WaltDisneyWorld #DisneyBlog #disneyfamily #disneyblogger #disneymom #disneykids #familytravel #familytravelblog #disneytravel #disneytrip #disneyvacation #magickingdom #epcot #animalkingdom #SpaceshipEarth #SpaceshipEarthSunday #thedisneymoms #birthdayparkhop
