I’m Back! (Sort of)

May 7, 2013 | Disney, Travel

Good morning everyone! I am BACK (sort of). I got off the cruise ship Saturday then headed to Disney to meet up with my parents. I will be here until Wednesday, but I am “back” as far as blogging goes. I hope you all enjoyed my guest posts, a huge thank you to them for offering to hang out on my blog while I was away, they are all awesome! I have so much more to tell you about the press event. If you missed the three posts I wrote on it so far, you can check them out below:

I have more great things to share when I get home so stay tuned. For now, I just wanted to share a few pictures from our two night stay at the Grand Floridian during the press event. The resort looked beautiful as usual and the courtyard pool has finished it’s renovations. We were on the 4th floor of Sago Cay.

    I like just being able to relax and read magazines and go in for a dip to cool off every so often when its too hot.

    My 5 year old loved the volcano slide at the Poly. I hope we can stay at the new DVC villas at the GF when they open because I know both of them would love the new water play area!

    This looks like so much fun! I love Disney – we even went there on our Honeymoon. 🙂

    My favorite part of the pool is underwater contests – I don’t think I will ever outgrow them!!

    Well, when I get a moment too myself at the pool I love just sitting on a chaise lounge reading! Nothing more relaxing.

Lately I’ve been using personalized skincare through Mochi Health and it’s been so much easier having products targeted to what my skin actually needs instead of just guessing every time I break out.

And somehow, Disneyland still makes it feel like the first time.

Same magic.
Different memories. ✨ 

We had the most amazing time at Disneyland last month. The magic is alive and well, and it gets me every time. This is a great time to take your family and make memories of your own. There are so many great things going on this summer! 

Not to mention, if you use @bestdayevervacay, they do all the stressful work for you, at no extra cost! From discounts to dining reservations, they can handle it. You just focus on making the memories. 🥰

I started noticing little signs during my normal day. Just occasional bloating, gas, and that slightly “off” feeling. So instead of ignoring it, I listened. I slowed down, moved more consistently, and added Align Probiotic to my routine.

And now… it finally will be. 🤍

We’re not leaving Tennessee, just making a local move that puts us closer to my daughter’s school, closer to our day-to-day life, and honestly closer to the version of life I’ve been hoping for since we moved here. (Aka not so much time in the car!) 

Still Knoxville. New chapter. Lots of boxes. Please pray. 🏡📦

Between dogs, snacks that never make it to a plate, and whatever is happening in my entryway on a daily basis… I needed something that could actually keep up in one go. This one’s been doing the heavy lifting so I’m not doing 12 different cleanups for the same mess. 

Life doesn’t happen in neat, single-surface moments. From pet hair to crumbs to tracked-in grass, real homes have layered messes. The BISSELL PowerClean DualBrush™ is designed to handle it all in one pass without switching tools or going over the same spot twice. 

Promotion: List Price $359.99, on sale for $259.99 ($100 off) from 4/5–5/30. Limited time only, don’t miss it. Link in bio to shop while the deal lasts 👀
