We woke up to a gorgeous view out of our verandah on the second day of our cruise. Disney Cruiseline has its own private island called Castaway Cay – it’s one of my favorite parts of the Bahamas cruise itinerary! I was so pumped about spending the day at the beach that I actually woke up before everyone else. So I decided to go up to deck 11 to grab some coffee and take some pictures of the ship while it was still quiet and calm.
That view!
Do you see Donald?
I’ve been dying to take another Disney Cruise since we got home from our first one last April. My dad joined us this time and we were all SO ready to make some wonderful memories on the Disney Dream. We got to the port super early and scored boarding group 2. That meant that we were some of the first people on the ship! It was a really great first day, despite the kids being a little grumpy. I think they were probably just a little overwhelmed.
What better way to celebrate our 12th anniversary than with a trip to the same place we honeymooned back in 2007! You guys know we’re huge Disney nerds and we love celebrating special events at the happiest place on Earth!
We decided to drive down to Orlando – mostly so that I wouldn’t catch any germs from the flight. And believe it or not – I managed to stay well during the entire trip. We left as soon as we dropped the kids off at school that morning and made the 7-hour drive down. It was a breeze without kids!
Road trip!
We checked in at the hotel and then headed straight over to Epcot to enjoy the Food and Wine Festival. It was our first time at this festival and we managed to eat and drink our way around half of World Showcase before we got too full.
Planning a trip to Disney soon? I’ve rounded up a bunch of fun Disney shirts for the men in your life. Maybe your guy is just NOT into matching shirts. Or maybe he’s a die-hard Disney fan! Or maybe he just loves Star Wars. No matter what, I’ve got shirts for every type of guy.
I’m lucky that my husband likes Disney World almost as much as I do. Our love of the parks started way back in 2007 on our honeymoon. We’ve been to Disney about a dozen times since then, and it never gets old. And yes, we both love wearing Disney shirts at the parks!
Don’t forget to check out my post with matching couples Disney shirts and my post with lots of princess Disney Bounding ideas!
Gaston is one of my favorite Disney villains!
Oh Donald!
My kids definitely do have an incredible Dad!

We had a great weekend in North Georgia! My parents have a timeshare in Helen and we usually stay there a few days each year. Helen is a small German-themed town with lots of character. I’ve been visiting almost every year since I was little. There isn’t a ton to do, but we enjoy spending time together and hitting up a few of our favorite spots!
We always stop at Jaemor Farms on the way up to the timeshare.
