Good morning everyone! I spent yesterday hanging out with my family, watching football, and loving on my puppies. I have either caught a cold, or am dealing with some serious allergies. I got some meds yesterday and spent the day on the couch so hopefully I will be fine!
Today’s agenda includes unpacking, laundry, and repacking for Disney’s Wine and Dine! I leave on Wednesday. Crazy, huh? I am so excited to work this event! I will be there through Sunday, if you are at the event please stop by the Running Skirts booth to check out the new fall prints!
Ok, so I know you all want to know who won the raffle prize packs, right? First of all a HUGE thank you to everyone who donated and got me one step closer to my goal. I haven’t quite reached it (you can donate here) but hopefully I will in the next couple of weeks! If you will remember, I had two prize packs up for grabs. The winners are as follows:
Grand Prize: Ros from Life’s a Wheeze
Runner Up: JoLynn Barnhill
Please e mail me at runningwithsass@gmail.com to claim your prize packs! Thanks so much guys, with your help, we really are making a difference!
Ok, so let’s move on to Disney! Today I am just going to give you a sneak peak of the first day of the trip. We left Friday after Bobby got off work and drove halfway, got up Saturday morning and got to Disney after lunch. When we checked in, our room was ready, and we were lucky enough to get the room right below the one we had for our Honeymoon at the Grand Floridian!
oh, what is that out the window?
EEEKKK!
We were stoked to get this awesome room!
Here is the rest of our panoramic view:
Before long we realized we hadn’t had lunch yet. Oops. The excitement of Disney will do that to you I guess! We headed to the concierge lounge for some snacks.
aaannnddd because I am not feeling well and have a million things to do I am going to totally leave you hanging at a really random point in the day. Sorry guys! That just means you have to come back. Ha!
QOTD: What is the best “room with a view” you have ever had?
Lori says
My favorite room with a view was in a village in Bayeaux, France. We stayed at a bed and breakfast there. Our room overlooked a cathedral dating back to the 1100s. Amazing place!

Heather says

I’m so sorry I gave you my cold! Rest a ton today + tomorrow because you need to kick booty in the Wine & Dine half on Sat!
Ros @ Life's A Wheeze says
Yay!! I’m so excited I won! 🙂 Thanks for the great giveaway. I’m super jealous of your back-to-back disney vacations! If I could run a disney race every weekend I seriously would.I’m counting down the days until my WDW half marathon and 5k and your disney vacation posts help get me through the waiting! haha
Heather says
