DISNEY!

Our trip has really sneaked up on us. I guess because I've been so busy. Just suddenly last week I realized we are 3 weeks out from our first trip of the year! We got our magic bands week before last... (Also, my Leia and Chewie tsumtsums!) We are trying to get some of the magic band colours we don't have. Even though green is my fav colour I've typically gotten ...

#MouseEarsforaYear

So I've already been doing some Disney plannings for our trips next year. Mostly just looking at dates, and making some dining reservations! We are doing a short solo trip early next year; for that trip I've booked... 1. Be Our Guest - breakfast! We've eaten here for lunch and dinner, but breakfast started right before or right after our last trip? So it wasn't do-able either way. When Ash went ...

All kinds of fun

All kinds of fun stuff in my inbox today. 1. I got my MidSouthCon schedule! You can see me at 3 panels over the weekend. I'll post it up here closer to then. 2. Signed & sent back the release to Marvel for their call for Agent Carter cosplayers. Yay! 3. Disney Movie Club finally got me. After years of free stickers I finally gave in when they also offered a free Olaf blanket ...

Sorry

Sorry to anybody digging through my blog lately. For one thing, I know it's a mess because I haven't kept up with tags. Secondly, I must seem like a crazy person with my crazy happy Disney posts followed by my crazy sad Indy posts. That's just my life right now. I've gone through and hidden a lot of my sad posts. They'll still be there for me, but no one ...

Disney excitement

I desperately need some Disney in my life right now. I'm so glad we have this trip coming up. Disney package paid for - check! Rental car booked - check! Dining reservations made - check! Universal tickets bought - doing that tomorrow! Getting there: As I probably mentioned before, we're driving for the first time this trip. I haven't driven to Orlando since we went in 1990 - and obviously I ...

My Disney Book

I've kept myself busy this week creating a little guidebook for our Disney trip (26 days!). At Barnes and Noble last year I saw this adorable tiny Disney guidebook - it was small enough to carry in a pocket, and had neat fold out maps and everything. And I really wanted it. Not that I necessarily needed the information... but it was so cute and just seemed super handy. Problem was, ...

Diiiiiiiiiidny

So, a few thoughts.... 1. We booked our Fastpasses! Friday night (technically Saturday morning - Orlando time) I logged in and booked our fastpasses. There wasn't a TON we wanted to do, since Chase isn't big on rides and most everything else we've done a lot. We just missed the Mine Train when we went earlier this year, so that one was obviously one we wanted to snag. Got two for ...

Disney World

Dragoncon mode: off. Disneyworld mode: engaged. Disney trip 2015 - booked! We are going in February this time around. 5 day trip. We'd picked our dates a few weeks ago, and when we went to book - surprise, they'd just announced free dining for that time period! So we booked, got the free dining, though we upgraded it to the mid-tier plan. Whee! I know a lot of people say don't get ...
