It’s no great surprise to anyone who knows me that I’m a big Disney fan. I have been since I first went to Walt Disney World way back in 1984 when I was a wee girl of seven. It ignited a fascination in me and a sense of wonder. And certain things just really stuck…

Dapper Day Spring 2017 Epcot
Since I had to work last November for the Fall 2016 Dapper Day at Epcot, I didn’t want to miss Spring 2017 Dapper Day at Epcot – especially since it was the perfect opportunity to do a Disneybound of my favorite Disney character – Figment! Two tiny wings, eyes big and yellow horns of a…
Dapper Day Fall Soiree 2015
I attended my first ever Dapper Day Fall Soiree at Disney’s Hollywood Studios October 3, 2015. It was amazing! If you’re not familiar with Dapper Day, don’t worry I wasn’t either until a few months ago. It’s an unofficial event that takes place twice a year at Disneyland, Walt Disney World and Disneyland Paris. It…
Excuse me, have you seen 2014 around here anywhere?
So…um, this is awkward. I’ve been meaning to write an entry for awhile now and it looks like it’s been more than two months since I last did. Whoops. And here we are not only in 2015, but midway through the second month of 2015. Yeah sorry about that. I did get around to making…
Flower and Garden Festival
Saturday, Love and I spent a few hours at Epcot for the Flower and Garden Festival. I didn’t get as many pics as I wanted so we’ll have to go back, but here’s a few. It threatened to rain all afternoon but never did. Though it was partly cloudy most of the afternoon. The whole…
Where Did February Go?
Here we are and it’s already March. And I realize my intentions to actually sit down and write out a blog entry in my oh-so-neglected blog last month not only never came to pass, but I didn’t even come close. Handful of photo posts….and that’s about it. Sheesh. Just seems like I’ve been so busy…
Cats Are Always Cats
What’s so amusing about cats is that, big or small, cats are all so very similar. You can see the same kinds of actions in big cats that you do your little household pet. (Just on a much larger scale! LOL) For example, one of the tigers at Animal Kingdom was cranky because her dinner…
Animal Kingdom
Last Saturday the weather was nice so we went over to Disney’s Animal Kingdom. The park is very animal-centric and has a strong focus on environmental awareness and responsibility as well as conservation. It’s a very lush park with tons of plants and foliage, but all that plant life makes it very hot in the…
2012 Holidays
The month of December went by in a complete rush this year because of being so busy in my shop. I had a record 103!! orders for the month of December alone! (And many of those had more than one item in the order!!) It meant though, that I didn’t have as much time as…
Oh Christmas Tree
Just sharing a few pics of the finally finished product! This time, including the Disney Monorail encircling the tree. 🙂 Click any photo for larger! I always love taking photos of my tree each year. It’s just so beautiful, and colorful I am so drawn to capture it over and over again!
Osborne Family Spectacle of Dancing Lights 2012
Saturday, December 15th, we went out to Disney’s Hollywood Studios to see the ever-amazing Osborne Family Spectacle of Dancing Lights! Literally millions of lights cover every inch of the backlot “streets.” Every 10 minutes they also “dance” to music. It’s an amazing sight to see! Here’s some photos. Click any image for larger version! It’s…
Festival of the Masters
Saturday we went out to Downtown Disney for the 37th Annual Festival of the Masters art show. It’s a great free show they do for one weekend in November each year. Last year we didn’t make it after breaking down on the side of I-4 but no such problem this year. Here’s a few random…
Oops
Has it really been a week since I wrote an entry? Sheesh. Here’s a quick recap. Saturday, we went over to Disney for a few hours to catch an extremely early “Dress Rehearsal” of New Fantasyland. See, they’ve been building a new expansion to the park for years now. It’s the largest expansion ever in…
Labor Day Weekend In Pictures
Friday was Nanny’s 96th Birthday so we went up to see her. Presents, cards and took her out to lunch. Saturday I worked on some orders including a couple custom pieces. Check out my custom full moon listing for how to get one made to your specifications and preferences! Sunday we went over to Magic…
Learning to Shoot
I know how to take pictures in that I have a good eye for shots. Up until now, I’ve used a standard point-and-shoot digital camera with decent, but limited, results. What I don’t know (yet!) is how to fully control the taking of those shots when you can change as much or as little of…
