It really was a great room despite the location. Each resort does something different for family of the day but we had our picture taken in the lobby and were given a few small freebies like a surrey bike rental, balloons, pins and maybe a couple more things. Nothing super special for us...

We spent a very very hot morning in Magic Kingdom before checking in for our lunch reservation at Be Our Guest. It had been a year since our last visit, which was a chaotic mess, so I was curious to see how this visit would go. When we arrived they were checking in anyone within 5 minutes of...

On Halloween morning we were up bright and early so that we could move our belongings to Boardwalk Inn before heading to Magic Kingdom for a bit. While I worked on packing, I sent Jesse down to Everything Pop to pick up a quick bite to eat. I wasn’t in the mood for a big heavy breakfast, but...

It really was delicious, definitely something I would order again. I love when other people are fans of AK! It makes me sad that people say it is basically a zoo and worth skipping. Disney has a new policy with the dining plan that you can swap out your beverage or dessert for any other...

We had left our plans for Friday evening up in the air. One option was to head to Disney Springs, but with the insane heat and humidity all we wanted to do was hop in the pool. We made the mistake of telling a two year old that we were going swimming before we left the park. Next time I will...

On Friday, October 30th we were up bright and early to visit…. Animal Kingdom actually ranks second behind MK for all three of us. We love the themeing of this park and it is a nice break in the middle of a trip. Typically I avoid extra magic hour days but this day worked the best in our...

It really was so exciting getting to do her first haircut at Disney World, it is really reasonably priced too. It was incredibly frustrating that he couldn't remember anything. It was even worse that we got the dessert to go, so we couldn't even correct the issue. Welcome! I had heard...

After a hot afternoon at Magic Kingdom, we enjoyed a relaxing boat ride to Wilderness Lodge. We checked in for our reservation at Whispering Canyon Café a few minutes early and were seated immediately. Unfortunately, we were seated on a sort of patio that over looked the side of the lobby...

After a busy morning of meeting princesses and riding rides in Fantasyland, it was time for one of our must do quick service restaurants. I have no idea why, but I insist on eating at Cosmic Ray’s at least once per trip. Over the years it has grown on Jesse and he considers it a must do as...

That pear cider really is delicious. I may need to track it down to enjoy on my deck this summer. I'm glad someone agrees with me, everyone seems to love it but I don't get the hype. Not all Disney buffets are created equal. Very true. Plenty of kids, and adults, have had bad days at...

Wednesday, October 29th was our anniversary and for the second year in a row we headed to Magic Kingdom to celebrate. We had an early morning scheduled with an 8:10 reservation at Crystal Palace. Since we did not want to risk being late, we tried to catch the first bus from Pop that morning...

Definitely make it over to Chefs sometime, the food really is delicious. We have done Via Napoli for 2 trips in a row but I am thinking we will take a break from it next time. Yeah, the rain was nice because it cleared out the crowds, but the quality of food definitely took a hit. That is...

Wow, you guys really are getting hit hard with snow. I live in West Michigan and thanks to the lake effect we typically see a ton of snow. This year has been the most mild winter that I can recall. The margarita and pulled pork nachos both look delicious!

After a day of stuffing our faces at the Food and Wine booths, we were somehow hungry again for our 5:30 dinner reservation. There are so many good restaurants in EPCOT, so I always have trouble deciding which 2-3 to choose each trip. In the past year Chefs de France has popped up on my radar...

Thanks for joining in! Welcome! It really was so tough to not be able to drink. Thankfully Jesse is not much of a drinker so it wasn't constantly in my face. He did like to bring it up every time we walked past Mexico though; I have a weakness for good margaritas.

Your breakfast at Kona looks delicious. We have eaten there twice (once for breakfast and once for dinner) and both times the service was seriously lacking. It is a bummer because the food is so good. We won't go out of our way to eat breakfast there again but it looks like we will be at Poly...

On our first park day we always head to Magic Kingdom. This trip we did things a bit differently and headed for EPCOT because it made much more sense in terms of crowd levels. We spent the morning riding a couple rides, meeting Mickey, Minnie and Goofy and exploring the Seas pavilion. Our...

The Wave looks delicious! I keep meaning to make it over there but still have not gotten around to it.

One thing that I enjoy about value resorts is the food courts. I like having a wide variety of quick options available right at my resort. When we stay at Pop we typically grab breakfast at Everything Pop before we head out for the day. On our first morning we grabbed two Bounty Platters with...

I apologize for completely neglecting this report, I am determined to get it done though. Between about 2 months of non-stop illness, Holidays, Cami's birthday, some pregnancy complications and now starting some renovations on our house, life has been crazy around here. So, without further...
