If you know me in real life, you now that if you start talking about Disney World, my eyes light up, my voice raises an octave and I talk 100 miles per minute because I LOVE DISNEY!!!!! I know people who hate Disney and I am not sure they are human or believe in magic 😊 Seriously, though…I think you either love Disney or you do not…there aren’t many wishy washy Disney people out there!
When we plan our Disney trips (we go every 12-18 months), we start getting pretty psyched about a year out! We start with the WHEN (we never go during school vacations or holidays), then move to the WHERE (we have stayed at Saratoga Springs, Bay Lake Towers, Animal Kingdom Resort, Coronado Springs, Old Key West, Art of Animation and the Polynesian). We plan out which parks we will be at which days based on crowd projections, plan our dining experiences and fast passes when the time is right. And then we wait – probably not so patiently – for our vacation to begin!!
I love helping my clients do all this planning as well! It is a labor of love – as not all agents take on Disney, but I know it well and love to help bring the magic to others! Every new trip presents a new point of view and new experience! I have enjoyed this ritual trip with my family and have enjoyed how, at each stage of my kids’ lives, Disney brings another level of wonder and growth along with the crazy joy that is Disney!
Here are some of my favorite memories from some of our trips at Disney over the years. This succession of memories are so precious to me! They are experiences my kids will always remember as times spent with their parents, family and friends. I hope as they become adults, they will also enjoy bringing their families to Disney and have the same fond remembrances that I do of my own childhood at Disney with my mom. What an awesome gift!
PS – we ALWAYS wear matching/themed shirts and always will! That is part of the fun!!

I have a picture of my kids doing this SAME thing in London in 2013. It is fun to recreate special moments in different locations! EPCOT 2019
