I don’t know why I took this photo…

    Our Honeymoon – Day 4 – Island Hopping

    This is post #4 in my series all about our honeymoon! If you haven’t already, make sure you read the other posts first – they’re listed chronologically here 🙂 DAY 4 – TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 6 Our adventures on Kauai had been amazing so far, but sadly it was already almost time for us to head to our next island!

If you haven’t already, make sure you read the other posts first – they’re listed chronologically here 🙂 Day 3 – Monday, February 5 After a long day of travel the day before, we were ready and excited to get up and explore Hawaii!

    Walk in Walt’s Disneyland Footsteps Tour Review

    I’m so excited to write today’s post because it’s something completely new and different for us! Today I’m talking about the time we took the Walk in Walt’s Disneyland Footsteps Tour!! Okay, so it’s still SORT OF related to our wedding since we did it on our honeymoon… ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ The Walk in Walt’s Disneyland Footsteps Tour is a guided tour through Disneyland that teaches you all about the history of the park and Walt himself. The tour is about 3-3.5 hours (ours ran a little long) and I believe the full price cost is a little over $100 per person, but since…

    Our Honeymoon – Day 1 – Off to Disneyland!

    Today I am SO thrilled to finally start writing about our fantastic honeymoon to Disneyland and Hawaii! I guess I technically already started writing about it with my Club 33 Review, but I was so excited to write that one that I just couldn’t help myself. But the time has come to write about all of the OTHER fun things we did…and there are a lot! This doesn’t really need any more of an introduction so let’s just dive right in 🙂 Day 0 – Friday, February 2 To begin I’ll actually rewind a bit to start off right where…

    We’re Going on an Alaskan Cruise!!

    Feels like I just wrote a post like this one but I am SO excited to share that we have booked our next Disney Cruise…to ALASKA! That’s right – we loved our Bahamian cruise so much that we decided to book another one right away!! …okay, that’s not EXACTLY how it happened but we did book this one while on board our last cruise 🙂 Here’s the story: my parents have been talking about how they want to go on the Disney Alaskan cruise for…years? Since we went on our first cruise in 2013 probably! We thought it could never…

    We’re Back From Our Disney Cruise!

    We sailed away last week and yesterday we sailed back! We are (sadly) back home from our Disney Cruise and it was such an amazing time! I wrote about this when we booked it but as a refresher – I went with Chris, my best friend Sarah and her boyfriend Grant. We sailed on the Disney Dream from April 23-27 and had THE most wonderful time. It was all of their first time cruising and my second and all of us loved every minute! Some of the amazing food we had on the cruise including that beautiful cheesy potato soup…

    DIY Disney Cruise Door Magnets

    As I mentioned a few weeks ago, we’re going on a Disney cruise!! We’ve been busy planning away and getting ourselves excited for an amazing time. One of the things my family and I didn’t do last time because we booked on such short notice was decorate our stateroom door. While we were on the ship we saw tons of fun magnets and signs on people’s doors and it was super cute! This time we had more time to plan and prepare and I stumbled upon those door decorations again, and this time I wanted to do some for our…
