    Top 5 Reasons You Should Stay at The All- Star Music Resort

    One of the highlights of any Disney trip is the resort. You always want to make sure that you picked a good one! With that in mind, sometimes people shy away from the Value Resorts. People think that just because it has the word “Value” in it, that it won’t be a great resort. But that isn’t the case at all! I am going to start a series on the All-Star Resorts starting with the first Value Resort I have ever stayed at– Disney’s All-Star Music Resort. To be honest, we picked this resort because it was the cheapest resort for the week that we wanted to go. We didn’t…

    Taking a Last-Minute Trip to WDW! (Plus Tips and Tricks)

    Last Minute Trip to Disney: Let me start this article by saying, in some of my past articles I have suggested booking your trip waaayyy in advance (like a year in advance if you can), so this post might seem a little contradictory. Although I still suggest booking your Disney vacation as soon as you possibly can, booking a last minute trip is still very possible! I know, because I just did it! It all started when my husband was going away to sunny San Diego for a business trip (we live in CT by the way). Also, business trips for him are very fun. I wanted to do something…

    Your Kid’s First Haircut at WDW

    Their first words. Their first steps. The first time they slept through the night (my son was 13 months when he finally slept through the night…and yes, I’m just a little bitter about that…). As a parent, there are a lot of “firsts” that we remember. One of the memorable firsts is their first haircut. And what can make it more magical than having your kid’s first haircut at Disney! I find that a lot of people don’t realize this… but did you know that there is a barber shop right on Main Street USA in Magic Kingdom? It’s called the Harmony Barber Shop and it’s the cutest little place! The Harmony Barber is located near the very…

    Disney Vacation Club – The Basics Part 3

    Part 3 of my DVC breakdown covers the odds and ends that I think are important to know about DVC. I cover some DVC facts beyond “use DVC for Disney vacations” (non-Disney park vacation uses for DVC points, the resale market, and renting DVC points) and list some points to think about when deciding if DVC is right for you. There’s a lot to cover (this is the longest part), so let’s dive in! I know I said this in both Parts 1 and 2, but it’s worth repeating: I do not work for Disney or DVC and that I am not at all being paid for or given perks…
