Spring 2022 Florida Trip Preview

March 25, 2022 | Disney, Travel

Hey yall! It’s been a minute. My new job is keeping me pretty busy, so I apologize for not posting here more often. I am pretty much done training and am now feeling in the swing of things so hopefully I can go back to more regular posting. We leave for Florida Wednesday afternoon and I wanted to share what we will be up to so that you can follow along. I will be sharing all the things on Instagram, especially in my stories, so if you don’t want to miss it make sure you turn on notifications for my profile. As always so thankful for my house/dog sitters and coworkers all making this possible!

Wednesday, March 30th

We are leaving in the late afternoon and starting our drive to Florida. Since I race the next night (Thursday) and have to get to the expo that day as well, we thought it would be best to drive some into the night and break up the trip.

Thursday, March 31st

Get up early and drive the rest of the way to Orlando. Probably go straight to the expo, then check in to the Contemporary courtesy of runDisney, who is also sponsoring me for the races. I can’t wait to see the new Incredibles themed rooms! Then the plan is to chill at the hotel before I have to board a bus for my 10:00 pm race, the Expedition Everest 5k!

Crash after said race, and get up at a decent time Friday. As much as I know I am going to want to sleep I need to get up and get moving so that I will be sleepy enough to go to bed at 6:00ish that night.

Friday, April 1

Magic Kingdom! We will walk over and spend a half day at the park. Maybe hit up the pool in the afternoon depending on the weather. Go to bed early

Saturday, April 2

Race for the Taste 10k! Board a bus before the sun comes up, and run run run! Then it’s back to the hotel for a shower, possibly a nap depending on the time, before heading out to the parks again. I need to go to bed early this night also, so maybe I won’t nap/

Sunday, April 3

Tower of Terror 10 miler! Get up early again and run run run! Back to the hotel to shower and load up the car since it’s checkout day. After the parks will head to the Wilderness Lodge for just one night.

Monday-Saturday

My parents arrive! We are staying with them at Old Key West in a 2 bedroom villa. We will be doing the parks and pool and Disney Springs. I can’t wait to do Disney with them again!

Saturday, April 9th

My parents go home, sad times. But, Bobby, EK and I will be heading to Gaylord Palms for the weekend for their Spring It On events! We have never done spring at a Gaylord hotel so we are PUMPED!

We are going to be busy and tired, but a good tired. I can’t wait to run, relax, and spend quality time with my family. These are the memories I treasure and can’t wait to make more! A huge thanks to runDisney and Gaylord Palms for having us!

If you’re new here, I figured an introduction was If you’re new here, I figured an introduction was overdue. 👋

I’m Heather. Wife, mom, content creator, trip planner, snack purchaser, basketball chauffeur, and personal assistant to two Goldendoodles who contribute absolutely nothing to the household.

I live in east Tennessee with my husband Bobby, my daughter Emma Kate, and our dogs Dolly and Luna.

Around here you’ll find a little bit of everything:
✈️ Family vacations
❤️ Couples getaways
🌎 The occasional solo adventure
🏀 Sports mom life
🏡 Home and household finds
🍽️ Food, recipes, and restaurants
🛍️ Products I genuinely use and love

Basically, if it’s making our lives easier, more fun, more organized, more luxurious, or creating memories, there’s a good chance I’ll be sharing it.

If you’re here for basketball content, travel ideas, home finds, dog content, or just the chaos of trying to do it all, welcome. You’re my kind of people.

You can also follow Emma Kate’s basketball journey at @theprincessEK and keep an eye out for appearances from Dolly and Luna, who are convinced this account belongs to them anyway. (They have their own IG @ourdoodledolly!) 

Or if you just want mom life basketball content, you can follow me at @heatherfromthebleachers where I post memes and funnies and being a sports parent. 

Now tell me about you. Where are you from, and what kind of content do you want to see more of? 👇

So it’s actually today…HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME! 🎉 Ju So it’s actually today…HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME! 🎉 
July 13th happens to be a pretty great day if you ask me. 😜

Today I’m 41. I’m not a fan of odd numbers so I’m not sure yet how I feel about this year. 😆

I will say I am always very reflective on my birthday. I’m grateful for every year God has given me, and know how blessed I am to have even made it to 41. Each day is truly a gift, and I don’t always live or act like it. As someone who is “over the hill,” I find myself wanting to soak it all in and slow it all down more and more, but it just keeps getting faster and faster! 🫣

Here’s to another go around, and hopefully to many, many more. 🥂

I was told @alaninutrition drinks wouldn’t make go I was told @alaninutrition drinks wouldn’t make good slushies in my new @ninjakitchen slushi. Challenge accepted. 🙋🏻‍♀️

While it’s true you need sugar to make a good slush and Alani energy drinks are lacking here, with an easy modification (fruit juice!) I got it to work, and boy was it delicious on a hot July day! ☀️ 

It was a fun, summery special occasion drink! What flavor combos should I try next? Hawaiian shaved ice + pineapple juice was so good! It was so easy I want to do it again! 🥤
