2013 Epcot Flower & Garden Festival

May 17, 2013
19-2

Even though I was in Orlando for a conference, I made arrangements to come in a day early so I would not miss the Flower & Garden Festival. I must say, that was the best decision I’d made in quite a while!  Gardening has only recently piqued my curiosity, since we’ve moved to a rural area...

Into the Mouths of Babes

May 3, 2013
Crystal Palace has some good options on their buffet for baby to enjoy.

  Baby food.  Somehow it is a mystery to parents everywhere.  Even though it is the definition of food in its simplest form, parents are perplexed at how much they spend buying it and why so much of it ends up as a permanent blemish on our favorite dress pants. Our family has taken...

Playing Hard To Get

April 19, 2013
17-5

All over Disney World, there are lots of great places to eat.  Several are more popular than others…a lot more popular.  Quite often, if you do not make reservations at some of the more popular spots 180 days in advance, they are pretty hard to get.  Here are the spots on Disney property that...

Single Mom Success

April 5, 2013
Despite the bumps & bruises, we had a blast!

Just about everyone knows how much I love being in a Disney park.  Even more know how much I love my children.  When I decided to take my preschooler and infant with me to the parks for the Princess Half Marathon Weekend, without my husband, people thought I was crazy.  Heck, I even considered...

Prime Time Parent

March 22, 2013
When was the last time you saw this?

  While I’ve traveled to Walt Disney World nearly every year for half of my life, there are quite a few things that I have yet to experience.  The latest check mark on my never ending Disney “to do” list was a meal at 50’s Prime Time Café. Before dinner, I already had a really rough...

Memories Made, Royal Family 5K

March 8, 2013
Ready to go!

If you recall my last post, Makin’ Memories, runDisney Style, I talked about my three year old daughter’s desire to be a part of the Princess Half Marathon.  We registered for the Royal Family 5K, just a few short weeks before the race.  Here’s how we did… Upon entering the convention hall at Coronado...

Makin’ Memories, runDisney style!

Getting ready for the Princess Half Royal Family 5K!

“Mama!” “Yes, CJ?” “I really need to go back to Disney World.” “You do? Why?” I asked, smiling to myself.  I had been successful in establishing my preschooler’s Disney parks addiction. “Because I need to say surprise to Belle again. Then I have to put on yellow glasses, shoot rings at Buzz Lightyear, then...

Laundry Isn’t a Bad Word

January 25, 2013
Washers aren't high capacity, but are just enough for a family of 4 to wash a couple days worth clothes.

“Laundry.”  Even saying the word strikes terror in the hearts of men and women.  “Laundry on vacation” is an expletive.  There are a lot of reasons to do laundry while on vacation.  Here are some of my favorites. I don’t know about you, but I tend to want to buy clothes before going out...

Tempting Toddler Tummies: The Quick Service Edition

January 11, 2013
Flame Tree BBQ: More than enough for our family!

Completely disturbed by the notion of eating any fast food, I have foolishly ignored quick service options for several years.  In the past few Disney vacations, I’ve learned the value of not always going to a table service restaurant for every single meal.  In the past, I’ve always upgraded our dining plan to the deluxe package, but lately,...
