🏕️✨ 28 DAYS UNTIL WE’RE HOME! ✨🏕️

The countdown is officially getting REAL! In just 28 days, we’ll be checking into The Cabins at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort for an entire week, and I seriously cannot wait! 🥹🏰

Fort Wilderness is one of those Disney resorts that feels like a vacation inside your vacation. You get all the magic of Walt Disney World, but when you come back from the parks, you’re surrounded by pine trees, peaceful trails, wildlife, and that laid-back campground atmosphere. 🌲🦌✨

And the cabins are a huge part of why we love it so much! Having our own little home at Disney—with a full kitchen, living space, separate sleeping areas, and our own outdoor patio—makes it completely different from staying in a traditional hotel room.

But one of my FAVORITE parts?
🛺 THE GOLF CART! 😂
There is just something ridiculously fun about hopping in the golf cart and cruising around Fort Wilderness. Whether we’re heading to dinner, exploring the campground, going to the pool, or just riding around enjoying the atmosphere, it’s part of the experience for us.

Then there’s everything else Fort Wilderness has to offer—Tri-Circle-D Ranch, horseback riding, recreation, campfires, boat transportation to Magic Kingdom, Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue, and those gorgeous quiet evenings when you almost forget you’re in the middle of Walt Disney World.

And this trip is extra special because I’ll also be celebrating something I have worked toward for a VERY long time…
🎓✨ MY RN-to-BSN GRADUATION! ✨🎓

So yes, there will absolutely be a celebration button involved. 😂 After all these years, I am going to celebrate this accomplishment in one of my favorite places on Earth!

October 3–10, 2026.
🏕️ The Cabins at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort
🏰 Walt Disney World
🎓 Graduation celebration
🛺 Golf-cart adventures
✨ Seven nights of Disney magic

28 DAYS!!!

And if seeing this has you thinking, “Okay…maybe I need a Disney countdown of my own,” that's exactly what I'm here for! ❤️ I can help you plan your Walt Disney World vacation—from finding available promotions and choosing the right resort to dining reservations and all those little details that can make a Disney vacation feel overwhelming.

Your countdown could be next! 🏰✨

✨🏰 Okay friends… it’s been a little too quiet around here! 🏰✨

I haven’t posted in a while, but I’m STILL here, STILL planning vacations, and STILL getting ridiculously excited every time someone messages me and says…
“Okay, I think we’re ready to go to Disney!” 😂❤️

Because I know what comes next.
The resort decisions.
The dining reservations.
The park plans.
The questions.
The countdowns.
And finally… THAT moment when you walk down Main Street, U.S.A. and see Cinderella Castle. 🥹🏰

Or maybe your magic looks a little different…
🚢 Stepping onto a Disney Cruise and hearing your family announced for the first time.
✨ Watching your little one meet Mickey.
⚡ Seeing Hogwarts and The Wizarding World of Harry Potter for the first time.
🏰 Walking toward Sleeping Beauty Castle at Disneyland.
🎢 Experiencing Universal Orlando or Universal Studios Hollywood with your family.

Those are the moments I LOVE helping my clients plan.
And remember—using me doesn't add an extra planning fee to your vacation. My planning services are completely FREE to you. ❤️

I'll send you as many quotes as you need. I'll help you choose where to stay. I'll answer the million questions that pop into your head. For Walt Disney World vacations, I'll get up EARLY and work on those dining reservations so you don't have to. 😂☕ And if a qualifying promotion comes out that includes your travel dates, I'm looking for that too!
You get to dream about the vacation.

I'll help with the details. ✨

And after 8 years of doing this, I still absolutely LOVE it.
I mean… I have the coordinates to Cinderella Castle tattooed on my arm. 😂🏰❤️ I think we're well past calling Disney a hobby at this point.

So if you've been quietly thinking…
“Maybe we should go to Disney next year…”
“Maybe it's finally time for that Disney Cruise…”
“Maybe we should take the kids to Universal…”

👀 Consider this your sign.

Send me a message. Even if you're JUST curious about the price.

Quotes are FREE.
Planning is FREE.
Questions are FREE.
And dreaming about your next vacation?
That's definitely free. 😉✨

Let's make some magic. ❤️🏰🚢🎢

🏔️🚢 ALASKA… WE’RE COMING BACK! 🚢🏔️

I did a thing this morning… I booked another Disney Cruise! 🥹💙

If you know me, you know Disney cruising is definitely one of my favorite ways to vacation. We’ve sailed on the Disney Fantasy multiple times, as well as the Disney Dream, Disney Treasure, and Disney Wonder. But somehow, we’ve never sailed on the Disney Magic… so it was time to change that! ❤️🖤💛

And what better way to experience the Magic for the first time than ALASKA?! 🏔️

We sailed Alaska previously on the Disney Wonder, and it is still one of the most beautiful trips we have ever taken. I will never forget sitting on our own verandah and watching the glaciers and incredible scenery right from our stateroom. So when I booked this trip, there was one thing I knew for sure—I wanted that verandah again!

📅 August 26 – September 2, 2027
🚢 Disney Magic
🏔️ Alaska
✨ Deluxe Oceanview Stateroom with Verandah

And yes, I absolutely researched individual stateroom numbers and which side of the ship I wanted before I booked. 😂 When you're a travel advisor AND the client, apparently you still get the full planning experience!

There’s just something about an Alaskan Disney Cruise. The mountains, waterfalls, wildlife, glaciers and those views that honestly don't even look real—and then you get to come back onboard to everything I love about Disney cruising.

I am SO excited to experience Alaska again and finally add the Disney Magic to our list of Disney ships! 💙

And of course, if Alaska is on YOUR bucket list, I would love to help you plan it. From choosing the sailing and stateroom to all those little details that can make a huge difference, this is the stuff I genuinely love doing.

Now the only problem is… I have 373 days to wait. 😂🏔️🚢

Who wants to go to Alaska?! 🙋‍♀️

Today was my dining day! 🍴🥨

I was up bright and early just like I am for my clients and reserved all of the reservations that I wanted at the times I wanted! How amazing is that?

🍹On our check-in day, October 3rd we will be meeting friends in Disney Springs for City works eatery and pour house for dinner

🍎 The next day is our animal Kingdom day and since it closes early we will be dining with Snow White, grumpy, d***y and my favorite, Queen Grimhilde at storybook dining at artist point... This is Jason's favorite!

🏰 Then we have Magic Kingdom the next day..... We will be dining again with Cinderella and her visiting princesses at Cinderella's Royal table. We specifically book this at 8:25 p.m. so that we can see the fireworks from the restaurant. We did this last year and it was one of the most magical experiences I have ever had! This one is my favorite! We also have a lunch reservation at the beak and barrel so that we can sit down and join some pirate banter 🏴‍☠️ And enjoy the cool air!

🏕️ This is our rest day! We will be having fun at the fort wilderness campgrounds, hiding gifts for the scavenger hunt and possibly attending Chip and Dale's campfire sing-along that evening!

🚀 This day is reserved for Epcot! We have a lunch reservation at the space 220 lounge.... Then we have a dinner reserved at Le Cellier steakhouse for the eat to the beat concert series. We will have guaranteed seats to see Tiffany that evening! '80S babies will understand LOL not to mention the food and w**e festival will be going on!

☄️ We have our Hollywood Studios day! Since we're staying at a deluxe resort, we have extended evening hours here! We'll be able to stay in the park until 11:00 p.m. Since we're doing so many two-table service credit restaurants (yes, we have the Disney dining plan! It's the only way to go!) we are going to just do a quick service meal here during the day. We do have a reservation at 8:45 p.m. for Oga's cantina to round out our day. After we leave Oga's, it will be time for the park to clear out for the deluxe Resort guest to stay behind. Maybe we can pilot the millennium falcon and ride rise of the resistance before we leave.

🥩 Then our last day will be spent relaxing in our cabin, watching the fireworks and the electrical water pageant on seven seas lagoon from the beach at our Resort. We might do a little fishing or take a carriage ride around the resort. We have a reservation at Steakhouse 71 for dinner that evening.

How do you think I did? Are any of these restaurants your favorites?
Drop a comment and let me know what is your favorite dining location at Walt Disney World!

⏰ Who wants to wake up at 5:00 a.m. Eastern Time just to make Disney dining reservations?

Not you... and that's one of the many reasons my planning services are completely FREE! ✨

Yesterday was dining reservation day for one of my wonderful clients traveling to Walt Disney World this October, and I'm happy to say we secured EVERY one of their first-choice restaurants! 🎉🏰

While they were sleeping, I was up bright and early making sure their vacation was coming together exactly as they dreamed.

That's one less thing they had to worry about.

When you book your Disney vacation with me, you're not just getting someone to reserve your resort. You're getting someone who watches important booking dates, wakes up early for dining reservations, looks for discounts and promotions that could save you money, and is here to answer your questions every step of the way.

My job is to handle the details.

And remember... my planning services are always 100% FREE! ❤️🏰✨

Congratulations to the M family on their last-minute Universal Orlando vacation! They arrive on Saturday and are heading off for seven amazing days of fun at Universal Orlando Resort!

They'll be staying at Universal's Cabana Bay Beach Resort, one of the most fun and family-friendly resorts on Universal property. With its retro 1950s and 1960s vibe, Cabana Bay features two incredible pools (including a lazy river and waterslide), a bowling alley, an arcade, delicious dining options, and spacious family suites with kitchenettes. It's the perfect place to relax and recharge after a day in the parks.

For five of their seven vacation days, they'll have park tickets that include ALL FOUR Universal parks:

🎢 Universal Studios Florida
🦸 Islands of Adventure
🧙 Epic Universe
🏞️ Volcano Bay Water Theme Park

And the best part? They can visit the parks as many times as they'd like during those five days! Whether they want to rope drop Epic Universe, hop over to Islands of Adventure for an afternoon on VelociCoaster, or cool off at Volcano Bay before ending the evening at Universal Studios, the choice is theirs.

They also added the My Universal Photos package so they'll have professional photos and ride pictures to help preserve all of the memories they'll make along the way.

I absolutely love helping families plan vacations that are tailored to exactly what they want—and yes, even last-minute trips can turn out to be incredible! I can't wait to hear all about their adventure when they return.

Have the BEST time, M family! The countdown is officially on!

Now, who's ready to plan their own Universal Orlando adventure? I'd love to help! 🎢🌋✨

Some moments in life become memories...
And some moments become magic. ✨🏰

Imagine watching your little one walk down Main Street, U.S.A. for the very first time... stopping in their tracks as Cinderella Castle comes into view.

Or turning the corner at Disneyland and seeing Sleeping Beauty Castle standing there, just like it does in the movies.

Imagine hearing the excitement when they spot Hogwarts rising above the trees, wand in hand, completely convinced that magic is real.

Picture the laughter as they meet Princess Fiona and Donkey, the hugs with Mickey Mouse, the happy tears when they finally meet their favorite princess, or the pure joy of watching fireworks light up the night while tiny hands are wrapped around yours.

These aren't just vacations.

They're the moments your children will talk about years from now.

They're the photos you'll pull out when they're grown.

They're the memories that become part of your family's story.

Now imagine experiencing all of that magic with a promotion that helps you save money on your vacation. ✨
Because making magical memories doesn't always have to mean paying full price.

When qualifying promotions are released, I watch for discounts that match your travel dates and apply them whenever possible—even after you've booked.

Whether you're dreaming of Walt Disney World, Disneyland, Disney Cruise Line, Universal Orlando Resort, or Universal Studios Hollywood, every destination offers unforgettable moments that remind us it's okay to believe in magic—no matter how old we are.

And nothing brings me more joy than helping families experience those moments together.

Because one day, your kids won't remember every toy they received...
But they'll always remember the day they walked down Main Street.

The day they saw the castle.
The day they cast their first spell.
The day they met their heroes.
The day the magic became real. ❤️✨

And imagine making all of those memories while saving money, too.

If you're ready to start planning, I'd be honored to help. My planning services are always completely FREE. Let's make some magic together! 🏰🚢🎢✨

With my client's permission, I get to share a little Disney magic with all of you! ✨

This sweet family is staying in a two-bedroom villa at Disney's Animal Kingdom Villas – Kidani Village, and the Savanna View is absolutely worth seeing! 🦒🦓

Just look at all of the space, the beautiful details, and those incredible views. There's nothing quite like enjoying your morning coffee while watching giraffes and zebras right from your balcony!

Have you ever stayed at Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge, or is it on your Disney bucket list? Tell me in the comments! ⬇️

If you've been dreaming about a Walt Disney World vacation, I'd love to help you find the perfect resort for your family and make the planning easy from start to finish. 🏰💙
