6-2-2026 - Cake, Crawl, California
Cake Bake Okay, we're up and ready to go - well some of us more than others. Now yesterday we didn't find Pumba, so before we took off for Birthday Breakfast at Cake Bake, we searched high and low. No luck. We'll try again later. So it's always a trick to figure out how to get to your reservation if you're going to another resort, but it can also be fun. Kind of in the vein of Sam and Brian doing Four Parks 1-Day, using all modes of transportation, Ash and I are going to

06/01/2026 - EPCOT!
Alright, Ash and I are ready to go to help close out the Flower and Garden Festival! I'm wearing a Farmer Mickey t-shirt while Ash is in the Orange linen Disney Outfit from shop Disney. She fully decked out herself out with orange ears and an orange fruit stand bag. We ordered a quick serve coffee from the Mara, who got our order wrong again. Sigh. Okay, moving on we made our way to the bus depot and waited for the ride to EPCOT. The wait felt a little extended, but we stil

05/30/2026 - Welcome Home
Wow, life has a way of getting busy in a heartbeat. Ash and I bought a house at the end of May, and then took off to Disney World for my 40th. Since we've been home we've been tearing up carpet, painting walls, finding buried lawn statues in the hedges, replacing broken appliances, stopping water leaks.. it's been an adventure all of it's own. That being said, I cannot thank Sam enough for having some posts she wanted to make to keep things moving along. Alright, now that th

02/2026 - Disney In a Day
Sam here! Somewhere along the way I decided 2026 is the year of Disney challenges for our family – up next is Disney in a Day! We’ve spent everyone’s birthday, but Brian’s, at the most magical place on Earth, and somehow, I got the stars to align. I truly wanted to do Disney in a singular day – fly down in the morning and fly home in the evening, but it was actually more cost effective to stay one night on property (and knock another resort off of our list) than fly down in

The Breast Edition - 05/30/2026
It's Sam again. While Ash and Anth are doing their Animal Kingdom stay for Anthony's 40th birthday I figured I'd sneak in and talk about the one thing most Disney mom's have dealt with, seen, or thought about... you read that title right, this is going to be THE BEST BREASTFEEDING in Disney World post you've come across. Now - let's start with the basics: feed your baby however you want to. This isn't to start controversy or stir the pot; I'm just sharing my breastfeeding exp

4 Parks 1 Day - 5/20/2026
Hey everyone, Sam here, and it's my first post! Starting big with an epic Disney challenge, and YES, my husband Brian, our two boys, Mitchell (4) and Ethan (1), and I did all 4 Parks in 1 Day, and to top it off, we did every transportation mode possible. I know I know- Sam you’re insane. BUT GUYS, I had a "free" park hopper and hooked a bounce back offer. What more justification do I need? We actually got the park hopper as a replacement for our Christmas Party ticket from De

Pittsburgh Disney Store! - 05/23/26
Hey everyone, Ash here, and today Anthony and I rope dropped Ross Park Mall! For those of you that don't know, a pop-up Disney store was put into one of our local malls, taking me back in time. Oh how I've missed Disney stores, and I'm so thankful that one has finally come back, even if it is only until January (Please keep it longer, I promise I'll come back!). The Store Okay, so it really wasn't a rope drop, but it sure felt like it! We got to the mall at 07:45, and qu

Bounce Backs and Gift Cards – 05/21/26
Hello all, Anthony here. Long story short, life happens. Ash and I have been talking about kicking off the Blog, the podcast, itineraries, and a bunch of other stuff, since the beginning of the year, and we’re finally getting EOE stood up. We close on a house tomorrow, and hope to have the podcast running by mid-July. Now all that being said, we have our next Disney trip coming really soon. We leave on May 31st for our stay at Animal Kingdom Lodge, which is home to me. I can

Animal Kingdom! 02/14/26
Outfits Morning and Happy Valentine’s Day everyone! We’re tired, we’re exhausted, it’s been an amazing trip, and we’re going to finish it out strong. We’re both in Animal Kingdom shirts, mine being forest green with a khaki skirt, Anth’s being grey with seafoam green shorts. He is telling me that AK won’t be an all day event and we don’t need to Rope Drop, but this girl ain’t listenin. Get moving lazy butt!

EPCOT! 02/13/26
Morning all! Ash here and it’s EPCOT Day! Finally, I’m gonna drink around the world with Anth! I’ve been wanting to do this forever, and I can’t wait to get to the park. Now I forgot to mention this yesterday, but when we were traipsing around Disney Springs looking at pins, Anth asked me which one specifically I was looking for. Begrudgingly, I told him about the official pin. When we got back to the room he had a little wrapped gift for me…the boy did well. He had ordered

Coronado Springs! 02/12/26
The Scavenger Hunt Morning all, Ash here. Today is a Resort Day. Anth and I both find these days important, because why spend the money to go to a Disney Resort but not take the time to experience it? That’s something you truly need to consider when booking a Disney World vacation. If you’re going to go all day in the parks and ignore the resort, I'd suggest going with a Value Resort or staying off property. If you’re going to take some time off mid-day, or just w

Hollywood Studios! 02/11/2026
Outfits Morning everyone! Time to rise and shine! I am doing my hair and makeup while Anthony is be an absolute hero. It's 5:00 A.M. and he has a cup of Joffrey's brewed, he's listening to his podcast, and he's ironing our clothes for the trip. Now one might think that we would go in Star Wars gear for today, but this time we're not going to be one with the force. A few years ago I bought a Woody bag and have never had a chance to wear it, well all that stops today! I'm g

Coronado Springs - Arrival! 02/10/26
Heading Out! Hey everyone, Anthony here, and finally, we're off! It's been a cold and brutal winter, and this week is no different. We made it to the airport where the parking had six inches of unplowed snow. I had Ash waiting with our luggage at the shuttle stop while I tried to find a parking spot. I saw the bus coming, and like any guy would, I gunned the car and buried it in a snow patch. I locked it, gave a little sign of the cross hoping it wouldn't get towed as I wa
