Disney Style Cars

Posted on August 14, 2013 12:00 am by TheAngelForever

When I think about Disney transportation, my mind immediately goes to The Magical Express, the monorail, Disney buses, and other items that you use around the resorts. I have written about Transportation Disney Style in the past and used some classic images. Another time, I thought a little outside of the box with Different Styles of Disney Transportation. Of course, one of the items we never travel in while visiting Walt Disney World is a car. Disney has magically transformed the images of these vehicles thanks to Lightning McQueen and his buddies from Cars. Thanks to my two boys, I have a lot of Cars items around our house. Back in December, TechyDad and I loved wandering around the Cars section of the new Art of Animation Resort. It was like we were thrust into Radiator Springs, so we took tons of photos for our boys. This week, I am sharing some of my favorite photos of Disney friends from the Cars area.

Disney Style Family Birthdays in August

Posted on August 7, 2013 12:00 am by TheAngelForever

The month of August is a big month in our family. Yes, there are back-to-back-to-back birthday celebrations in our family during this summer month. Papa’s big day is next Monday and TechyDad just celebrated his birthday on Saturday. While I was expecting NHL, we always assumed he would be born in September. He surprised all of us by coming two weeks early to join the August party parade. Now, ten years later, I am in denial that my oldest will be sporting a two digit number for his age. To help celebrate, I made a collage with all three of the August birthday boys from their last Disney trip with me (NHL/May ‘12 – Papa/May ‘12 – TechyDad/Dec ‘12).

Disney Letter M

Posted on July 31, 2013 12:00 am by TheAngelForever

When you think of things that start with M from the magical world of Walt Disney, you automatically think of Mickey and Minnie. I wanted to go a bit more outside of the box, though I did include a retro photo of Minnie with me in the mid to late 80s. The phone from Pop Century Resort reminds me of the actual one that my parents had when I was growing up and the others were just really great memories and from our times at Walt Disney World.

Disney in the Details

Posted on July 24, 2013 12:00 am by TheAngelForever

Staying at a Walt Disney World Resort adds to the magic of going to Orlando. Not only are you immersed in beautiful Disney items in their parks, but also where you will be sleeping and dreaming of your next adventure. Over the years, I have stayed at many different resorts on Disney grounds. During our last visit, TechyDad and I were able to stay in two sections of the Art of Animation Resort. Whether inside or outside, the details were stunning from the giant characters surrounding the buildings, the plants that made you feel under the sea, to the amazing rooms that made us feel like we were a part of The Lion King and The Little Mermaid while in our rooms.

Social Media Memories at Disney

Posted on July 17, 2013 12:00 am by TheAngelForever

Our last handful of trips to Walt Disney World have had a major social media presence to them. During our May 2009 trip, I was very limited in sharing items with everyone back home. I was able to send some Facebook photos, but few and far between. By the time we went back to the first Disney Social Media Moms in February 2010, tweeting photos was part of my repertoire. Things continued to magically change as I entered the world of smartphones and more apps allowed me to share memories in real time. During my last visit with TechyDad for the opening of New Fantasyland, we were sharing on Instagram immediately. I adore this way because I can tweet them, share on Facebook, and also connect with a large Disney community right on Instagram. Here are a few of my December 2012 Instagram Disney memories.
