My name is Jen, and I’m a Christmas ornament addict. I already have four Christmas trees worth of ornaments, and I don’t see a stop to the madness anytime soon. Especially when Disney finally comes out with a bunch of new ornaments! Each year, they release a few. But frankly, they’ve been getting stale. But…
Wreck-It Ralph and his sidekick Vanellope are now on stage at Walt Disney World. Today was the first day guests to Disney’s Hollywood Studios got a chance to see the two main characters from the film, Wreck-It Ralph. The characters are in the Art of Animation attraction – and seem to replace Winnie the Pooh…
It is quite ironic that most of my friends up north say they never want to move to Florida because they are scared of hurricanes. Yet, the bulls eye of Sandy is now positioned on the NY, PA, DC area of the United States. Living here in Florida for the last 13 years, I’ve dealt…
Thank you all for the great kind words about our family Halloween fight. I wanted to give you all an update on this ever important news! After some kind words from family and friends, some encouragement from his brother, and the offer of overalls from a friend (Monica, you are a lifesaver!), we have success! …
This has to happen to all of us parents at some point…right? We try hard to do right…to encourage our children to be, “anything they want to be”. And then it comes to this…fighting over Halloween costumes. Despite my best efforts, my family REFUSES to do any sort of themed-family costumes. In the past, I’ve…
The video is in from our fun day Saturday at the Disney Park’s meetup! I’m happy to say, one of my boys made the final cut! They were both asked to say some lines – and no matter how many times they say it at home, when the pressure is on they get all embarrassed!…
I’ve a bit obsessed with the new Disney animated short, Paperman. You’ll get to see it before the new Wreck-It Ralph. It’s a nice throwback to hand-drawn animation – something we haven’t seen in awhile thanks to all the fancy computers. It’s a nice change and a lovely story. The characters are strong, it’s funny,…
Video games are my addiction, and I totally blame my parents. My father worked for AT&T and was somehow involved in some of the first ever home computers. So naturally, we had one at our house. It pretty much looked like this: As a kid – it SUCKED. We got to play really exciting text…
I love spin class. There is something about sitting in almost darkness, riding a bike with too much resistance and sweating like never before. I do it at least three times a week…sometimes more. I come out super gross and nasty. For me and my asthma, it’s the only thing I feel like I can…
“I know having a boyfriend might seem like the only thing important to you right now, but you don’t have to dumb yourself down in order for a guy to like you.” It’s taken my brain a day to STOP FREAKING OUT over the news about Tina Fey and Amy Poehler co-hosting the Golden Globes…
