After a fairly good night’s sleep, we were awoken by the cheering coming from directly below our room for the 10K!! Such an amazing way to wake up! It was absolutely freezing (mid 30’s with wind) and I felt so sorry for the runners, but they honestly seemed to be having a great time:). I …
Well, as I sit here snuggling with my dog, having taken my Tamiflu and obeying doctor’s orders to rest, I figure I might as well tell you guys all about the amazing (if somewhat freezing cold) long weekend I just had at Walt Disney World! My travel companion for this trip was my 18 year …

I’ve decided on Fridays we’re going to write about Disney. By we, of course, I mean me. So we are just about 60 days away from our next trip and we are SO EXCITED! We can make our FP reservations on Sunday and I have everything all lined up because of course I do. So …
