Princess Pampering

February 17, 2012 | Disney, running, Travel, Uncategorized

 

I warned you all on Twitter and Facebook yesterday that I had some exciting news to share. Some of my fellow bloggers have already shared so I figured it was my turn, too. As most of you know, I am running the Disney Princess half marathon next weekend. Well, I found out yesterday I was selected as one of a few lucky bloggers through FitFluential to be pampered like princesses all weekend long!

WOO HOO! I will be coming in a day earlier than planned (flying) and staying at the Animal Kingdom Lodge before I switch over to the Grand Floridian to be with my mom, Karen, and her mom. I am so excited about this opportunity. I am also going to be running the 5k.

Don’t worry, I will be tweeting and updating my little heart out, so you won’t want to miss any of it! Be sure you follow me on Twitter and my Facebook fan page.

I don’t have an exact itinerary yet but will be sure to share with you when I do. All I know is I am so blessed, and I am going to have a blast. Not to mention, I get to hang with my mom, Karen and her mom until Tuesday, we are going to have so much fun, this is just the icing on the cake.

***Bloggers, this does NOT change our Saturday meet up, it is still at 3:00 pm at the Grand Floridian. Please feel free to link my post about the meet up on your blog, Twitter, etc. We are going to have some great GIVEAWAYS so you won’t want to miss this networking opportunity!***

QOTD: If you were really a princess for a day, what would you do?

Holiday hosting just got a whole lot easier ✨ As Holiday hosting just got a whole lot easier ✨ 

As a busy mom, I love serving a “wow” cocktail that looks impressive but takes almost zero effort. The Bartesian lets me skip the recipe testing, ingredient shopping, and playing bartender all night. Just pop in a capsule, add the appropriate spirit, choose your strength (or make it a mocktail!), and your drink is ready in about 30 seconds, with no measuring, no mess, no stress!

With over 50 cocktail options and multiple machine models to fit your needs, it’s become my go-to for all of our holiday events. 

🛍️ Black Friday came early—now through 12/3 save up to $150 off Bartesian Cocktail Makers! 

🍹 So check the link in my bio or comment the word CHEERS below and I will send you the link so you can upgrade your hosting game this season! 🎄🍸

#ad Who says gift cards can’t be personal? 🎁☕️ T #ad Who says gift cards can’t be personal? 🎁☕️ 

This year I wanted to do something special for my coffee-loving friend — something simple but still thoughtful. I grabbed a Starbucks gift card from Walgreens (they seriously have every kind you can think of, and you can even Buy Online, or Pickup In Store 🙌). 

Then I added my own touch: a cute Christmas mug, a candy cane, and a little note. Because the best gifts don’t have to be complicated, they just have to show you care. 💛
