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?

#ZbarPartner I know these days won’t last forever, #ZbarPartner I know these days won’t last forever, so I’m soaking up every driveway game, every laugh, every little break in the grass. 🤍 

Lately our go-to has been Zbar Protein Snack Bars, especially the new Strawberries ‘N Creme flavor that is made with organic whole grain oats, real fruit, and protein to help support growing kids. It’s a snack she loves and I feel good about too. 

It’s a great little reset so she can get right back to doing what she does best, playing her heart out 💕

Getting older, I started noticing my hair wasn’t q Getting older, I started noticing my hair wasn’t quite the same. A little more thinning, my scalp hasn’t felt the same, and I’ve spent more time just throwing it up into a ponytail, and honestly not giving it much thought beyond that. 🤷🏻‍♀️

So I started becoming more intentional about actually taking care of my hair and scalp, and it’s such a small shift, but it really does make me feel better.

I’ve been using Mochi Health’s personalized hair support options, which makes it easier to stay consistent instead of guessing what to use. It fits into my routine and finally feels like I’m doing something proactive for myself instead of just hiding it in a bun. Check out the link in my bio for $40 off your first month.

Embarkation day on the Disney Wonder out of San Diego is pure organized chaos in the best way. Bags everywhere, everyone buzzing, and that moment you step onboard and suddenly forget how to function like a normal human.

We’re talking: Where are we even going first? Do we eat or explore or both immediately? Why does this already feel like the best decision ever?

And then the sail a wave party happens and… yeah. You’re gone. Mentally, emotionally, everything. 😭

If you know, you know…embarkation day hits different 🚢✨

Thanks @bestdayevervacay and Disney for hosting us on this magical adventure! Use the 🔗 in my bio to let then plan a cruise just like mine, down to the last detail!

Disney cruises are the perfect multigenerational vacation because there is truly something for everyone. From kids clubs to adults only dining and entertainment, everyone can do their own thing and then meet back up together for a fun day ashore, in the dining room, or poolside. The options are limitless, and the memories are, too. ❤️

My friends at @bestdayevervacay understand how hard you work for your money and that you want the most magical, memorable, and stress free vacation possible. They are standing by ready and able to answer all of your questions and get your cruise booked. 🚢 

🚨 Even better? @disneycruiseline just announced a NEW discount! Kids sail 50% off in select sailings! But hurry only so many rooms are allotted for this offer. Fill out the form at the link in my bio, or comment the word “cruise” and I will DM you the form! Remember it’s FREE to have them book your vacation for you! No extra cost!

So… never. 👀

I wanted something simple, personalized, and actually doable, not a 47-step routine I’d abandon in two days. That’s why I started using Mochi Health for skincare + wellness support, and it’s been one small thing that makes me feel more put together (even when I’m not).

If you’ve been wanting to get your skin and wellness together without overthinking it, I shared more in the reel. Link in bio for $40 off your first month.
