Thanks to Lake Buena Vista Resort Village & Spa for working with me on this video and providing the complimentary princess makeover for Elisabeth. She loved it!

Today, I’m sharing another vlog in our Family of 7 Florida Vacation vlog series! This time, Elisabeth gets a beautiful Princess Makeover at the Lake Buena Village Resort Village Spa!

This is the last full day of our Florida vacation and, in it, you get to see Elisabeth’s makeover and then later, we take the kids swimming and eat pizza for a quick and easy dinner in our resort room. I hope you enjoy the video and thanks for watching! πŸ™‚

VLOG: Fun Times at Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom for the day!

by 1 Comment


Thanks to Disney for the complimentary tickets we received. We were provided some tickets from Disney and purchased the rest out-of-pocket. We also paid for all of our meals and souvenirs out of our own pocket. πŸ™‚

Hi, guys! In today’s video, we share our adventures at Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom for the day! This was part of our 2018 Florida Family Vacation and I’m so glad that we can share it with you!

In this video, we go on lots of Disney rides, eat snacks, and even spend $273 for a meal for our family of seven at Liberty Tree Tavern! We all had the ALL-YOU-CARE-TO-ENJOY Patriot’s Platter that we’ve been wanting to try for so long, and it turned out to be a great family meal. Dessert was way too sweet though so just be aware of that if you decide to have lunch or dinner there.

We also pick up some more souvenirs (of course!) and, all in all, it was a fantastic day! I hope you enjoy the video, and thanks for watching! πŸ™‚

by 1 Comment


Hi, guys! Today, I’m sharing vlog #2 in our Family of 7 Florida Vacation vlog series! In this second vlog, we go shopping at the Disney Character Warehouse Outlet Store in Orlando, Florida. We then head to Disney Springs (aka Downtown Disney) to have lunch, a little more fun, and do some shopping!

We ended up eating at Blaze Pizza but we also tried a cheeseburger from D-Luxe Burger. It was so good! After we went back to our room, I shared our haul for the day and it includes an adorable blue Mickey Mouse plush that is SO cute! We wrapped up the day with swimming and an easy dinner in our room. I hope you enjoy the video, and thanks for watching! πŸ™‚
