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 ...
I've kept myself busy this week creating a little guidebook for our Disney trip (26 days!).

We're back! I got sunburnt, my feet and legs got ridiculously swollen by the 3rd day, it was either really cold or really hot, and I came back with a head cold - it was fabulous. The best part was sharing it all with my parents. We had great meals, I got to do Dapper Day, met a ton of characters, rode the rides and saw the new parade (3 times!) ...
