    The Amazing Disappearing Disney Vacation!

    Y'all, I'm literally the worst DisBoarder ever. I started this trip report over a year ago and left it at that. In the words of Dr. Ian Malcolm, "Life finds a way." I like to edit this quote by adding, "...of getting crazy." You see, my big, glorious family had this amazing extravaganza...

    Disney Extravaganza!

    Well, we gathered for a family wedding on Saturday afternoon, so we spent Saturday evening planning our #PhillipsGrimesCallicuttDisneyExtravaganza {our official hashtag for the younger set}. We've picked out our dates, selected our restaurants, and officially allowed ourselves to get pumped...

    Traveling with "Golden Oldies"

    Next May we are taking my grandparents {both aged 80} to Walt Disney World. My Grandma hasn't been since 1971 and my Pop has never been! Both Grandma and Pop are in super shape {they workout quite often and bike five to six miles each day} and they spend most days outdoors. With all that...

    Hakuna Matata--A Pre-Trip Report

    The weather on our cruise was perfect! When we arrived at Port Canaveral, I wore a light denim jacket and capri pants and was totally comfortable. Our stopovers in Nassau and Castaway Cay were picturesque...just be certain to use plenty of sunscreen! I got FRIED because the mild weather...

    Traveling with children for the first time...HELP!

    Thank y'all so very much for all of the advice. We're thankful that the girls are so excited about the trip with their "Aunt" and "Uncle." They both love "big girl" rides, so hopefully we'll have a chance to try out everything. November can't get here soon enough!!

    Mr. and Mrs. Weak Sauce Go the Distance (a completed Disneymoon TR!)

    I'm definitely subscribing to your TR...your wedding photographs are beautiful! As a newlywed myself {we just celebrated our 2nd anniversary}, I can remember how tired we were when we finally made it to Orlando after our wedding. Thanks for sharing your memories!

    I NEED BBB advice!!!

    Thank you all so very much for the hints! We've made appointments for both little ladies and they are very excited. They were very adamant about NOT dressing up {which kind of broke my heart}, so they are only getting their hair, nails, and makeup done. I'm hoping I can talk them into...

    Cinderella's Royal Table...What to Expect??

    Thank you so much for the helpful hints! Like I've said, my DH and I are a bit terrified of traveling with children! Here's another question for all you ladies...do ALL the princesses come out at dinner? I've read that it's only the mice and the Fairy Godmother...that would be a bit...

    Cinderella's Royal Table...What to Expect??

    How sweet you are! Audrey and Emily are a bit tomboy-ish, so I could only convince them to do the hair, nails, and makeup at BBB. They were {sadly}, NOT interested in wearing a princess dress. Their appointments are two days before our ADR for Cinderella's Royal Table, so I'm packing plenty...

    Will You Chill Out if I Sprinkle You With Pixie Dust? The End p136 *New TR Link* p138

    We were off to claim our bags and get our rental car. I scored an excellent rate on a car through Alamo. $146 for 10 days - full size car! I have to thank the transportation boards for that. [/SIZE][/COLOR] I'm just now joining in on your trip report...better late than never! I love...

    Traveling with children for the first time...HELP!

    Y'all, my DH and I don't have kiddos. We just don't have the constitution for it. The closest we've come to having children is adopting two cats! In November, we're traveling to WDW with children. It will be my 17th trip and my husband's 4th, but we've never, ever, ever taken two small...

    Hakuna Matata--A Pre-Trip Report

    The reason I titled this PTR Hakuna Matata is simple: it means no worries! I didn't want my MIL or Josh's aunt to stress about making reservations or plans, so I {willingly and happily} volunteered to do it all. Like I said, nothing gives me more pleasure than planning a Disney vacation...

    Cinderella's Royal Table...What to Expect??

    Thank you all so very much! We've been to WDW many, many times on our own {and with other adults}, but children are completely foreign to us! I feel a lot more confident now. Prayers will be appreciated come November :laughing:

    Vera Bradley obsessed and proud of it!

    I have a large duffel that I use for my checked luggage...it's much easier to spot in baggage claim! My husband uses "man luggage," that's also quite roomy, so I usually stick some of my stuff in his bag too :)

    I NEED BBB advice!!!

    Awesome idea! Thanks for letting me know that those costumes are itchy. We haven't spent a lot of time around children, so we're pretty clueless!
