Months ago, with BlogHer well in the distance, and no money in my account to purchase an early bird ticket, I took a gamble. I applied to be a volunteer and figured that I’d go only if I was chosen as a volunteer and got the free ticket. As luck would have it, I was…
Caution: Hot #WW Wordless Wednesday Linky
Yes, it has been beyond hot in Maryland, with record highs (ok, I actually don’t know that for sure, but it surely FEELS like we’ve had record highs). But this Wordless Wednesday photo was taken in Philadelphia at the Digital Family Summit a week and a half ago when I was touring the hotel’s amazing…
Buena Vista Street at Disney California Adventure Park
When I took my first stroll down Buena Vista Street, I saw a nostalgic city street. I saw signs of Disney and a time long gone. I noticed quaint little stores, ice cream shops, and an old-time trolley. But, I hate to admit it, I was focused on making it into Disney California Adventure and…

What To Do on the Fourth of July – Visit Atlantic City #HowIDoAC

The World of Color at Disneyland’s California Adventure
During my 2 days at Disneyland last week, I was able to see the incredible (and I mean incredible!!) World of Color water and light show at Disney’s California Adventure Park. World of Color is part water show/part laser light show. Add in some Disney music and magic and a little bit of story telling…and…
World Premiere of Disney Pixar’s Brave at the Dolby Theater #BraveCarsLandEvent
To call this past week a whirlwind is an understatement. I had so many incredible experiences associated with the opening of both the movie Brave and the new Cars Land at Disney’s California Adventure, but probably the experience that stands out most in my mind was the World Premiere and Green Carpet event at the…
Disney’s California Adventure Pixar Play Parade – Give Me Your Best Shot #PSF
I had the best seat in the house for the Pixar Play parade on Tuesday and only wished that my kids could have been with me to enjoy it. All of their favorite Disney/Pixar characters were present and the costumes, floats, and dancers were full of color and fun. Just looking through these photos makes…
Project 365 {Week 18}
I’m sitting with my kids on this Sunday night, braiding hair and playing games. Sunday is my favorite day now. I have come to appreciate it with new eyes since I’ve been so busy during the weekdays. Sitting together with the cool breeze coming through the window, with no expectations or tasks that have to…
Wordless Wednesday on the Beach
My internet out here on the beach hasn’t been working for the last few hours, so I don’t have a linky to put up this week. Thanks goodness for smart phones. Happy Wednesday!
