Family Movie Night Featuring: 101 Dalmatians

We're Baaaaaack!!

I had fully intended on posting more over the summer as our trip started to take form but we were just so busy. That's okay...I'm here now! We're getting closer to our trip and my cousin has been hounding me to start the blog back up since I've been posting our movie nights on Facebook. When I began compiling a list for our movie countdown, 101 Dalmatians didn't make the cut. But, then I saw someone online had used this movie at day 101...so here we are...

 

**101 Days til Disney!**

 

Other than at All-Star Movies Resort (below), the multitude of spotted dogs don't have much of a presence at WDW but I just loved the idea of doing 101 on day 101.

I've never stayed here and just pulled this image from Google.

 

 

Since I decided to show this movie somewhat last minute (and we live a solid 30 minutes

from any major store), I wasn't able to get much in the way of decorations. I think we pretty well made do with what we had. Last year I designed and printed our menus myself. They weren't beautiful but they worked. This time around I've requested the assitance of my aunt who happens to be a graphic designer. I'm trying to convince her to start an Etsy shop; maybe this will help!

 

 

A basic Pinterest search helped me with what to put on the menu.

Who doesn't like breakfast for dinner, anyway?!

 

 

Personalized Movie Tickets!

 

 

 

Since this was sort-of last minute to use this movie,

our set up was pretty basic. We stuck with the red, white and black theming.

My Mickey & Minnie containers came in handy!

 

 

 

 I'm pretty proud of myself for drawing and putting together the craft!
A dog looks a lot like Mickey initially!


I'm so excited to start our countdown again. We're actually a bit closer to our trip than 101 days but I promise we actually did this movie night on day 101. I look forward to sharing with you all of our other nights...I'll give you a hint for the next one: it was the day after Halloween!


See ya real soon!

Holy Hiatus Batman!

I've been MIA for a very long time, almost a year. It makes me super sad! I loved blogging and did it almost religiously when we were preparing for our Disney trip in September 2013. However, shortly before we left, my laptop pooped out on me and I wasn't able get on much as it was a pain from my phone and I couldn't very well do it from work. But noooooow, I have a laptop at home again.  Yay!

 

I look forward to posting more because guess what...we're almost 180 days out from our next Disney Trip! We're going the first week of February to celebrate Lil's 5th birthday. I can't believe my baby will be 5 but I'm so looking forward to our time together at Walt Disney World! As I prepare, I'll be posting photos and short details from our previous trip, along with our new countdowns. I'm excited to share with you all of our wonderful Disney Movie Nights and the fun stuff I've been planning!

 

Please check back often as I will be starting to post next week!

 

See ya real soon!
