VLOG: Day 6 - Jamaica and Ziplining!

On today's installment of our Disney Cruise Line Vlogs, I'm sharing our time in Jamaica where we zip lined through a tropical wonderland of the Great Hope Estate. It was gorgeous with breathtaking views and although I didn't care for the wait times at some of the traverses (too many zip liners), I loved this excursion! Also, we had a little fun with Pirate Night that evening on board the Disney Fantasy!

Check out all the fun we had in Jamaica and with Pirate Night below!

Missed a recap? No problem! (Said Jamaican style) :)

VLOG: Day 5 - Grand Cayman & Snorkeling With The Stingrays!

Continuing with our Disney Cruise from this past October, (super late, I know) here's the next video in the series! On our next port day, we spent time in Grand Cayman and went snorkeling with the stingrays! This was by far my favorite excursion of our trip!

I loved making this video as it reminded me of all of our fun times in Grand Cayman! Check it out below!

After this, just three videos remain and the recaps for this trip will be complete. If anything, they are just making me even more excited for our upcoming Disney Cruise in August! I cannot wait!!

Have you ever snorkeled with the stingrays? What were your thoughts on the experience?

Disney Cruise Line Vlogs

This past weekend, I spent a bit of time going over the plans for our upcoming cruise and finalizing details. During the process, I remembered that I never finished my Disney Cruise Line vlogs from LAST fall! (GASP!)

I had so much fun putting day 3 together that I also decided to finish day 4! Day 3's vlog is all about our first at sea day with Remy brunch and day 4's vlog is our stop in Cozumel where we visited Chichen Itza! Having this footage made me so happy and I laughed so hard while putting these together. It was definitely fun to reminisce!

So, check out not one but TWO Disney Cruise Line vlogs that are up on YouTube now!

At Sea Day with Remy Brunch:

Cozumel with a stop at Chichen Itza!

Thanks for stopping by! :) Stay tuned for more!

Walt Disney World Marathon Video Recap

Finally, a video recap of my experience with the Walt Disney World Marathon is up and ready to go! I had SO much fun reliving this race while creating this video and it brought back so many memories, especially riding Everest mid-race. I mean seriously, where else can you do that during a marathon?!

For a full recap of our WDW Marathon Weekend experience, check out these links below:

Anyway, check out all the fun we had in the video below! Bonus, it's not nearly as long as I thought it would be! :)

Thanks for following along in my Dopey Challenge journey! I've enjoyed sharing every step of the way with you guys!

Vlog: Walt Disney World Half Marathon

The 2018 Walt Disney World Half Marathon was our 3rd leg of Dopey's Challenge and although the temps were still super cold, we had a ton of fun!

For a full recap of our WDW Marathon Weekend experience, check out these links below:

This race weekend will always hold a special place in my heart as my first half marathon took place on this weekend back in 2010! It's hard to believe that 8 years have passed so quickly!

Today, I'm sharing with you a video recap of this half marathon. My favorite part of the race was the new course change where runners enter the Magic Kingdom under the train station which was so much fun!

Thanks for following along with my Dopey Challenge journey! Stay tuned for more from our Marathon Weekend vacation!

Vlog: 2018 Walt Disney World 10K

Today, I'm bringing you a video recap of the Walt Disney World 10K! This race was a ton of fun and I really enjoyed running it with my pal Melissa!

Vlogidays Weekend Edition #6

I hope you all had a great Christmas! Ours was amazing and is still continuing as we speak! We have our final family Christmas gathering tonight which has certainly made this Christmas time a fun one as it's prolonged it past Christmas day!

Today, I'm sharing with you a video recap of our weekend where we had brunch with my family, attended a candlelight Christmas Eve service at church, and opened gifts with our little family. Brayden's 2nd Christmas did not disappoint and sure was a fun one to experience together!

I hope you all had a wonderful and blessed Christmas! Thank you for being a blog follower - I've enjoyed sharing our life journey with you!

Vlogidays Weekend Edition #5

Week 5 - how have these weekends flown by so fast already?! There's only two weekends left of the holiday season which makes me immensely sad. It's hard to believe Christmas is almost here. I love all of the prepping and planning for the day, but I don't like once the day is actually over. This is my absolute favorite time of year and it's sad to see it come and go by so fast!

This past weekend, we had the chance to spend a little down time at home which was nice. I did attend a few Christmas parties and we had the chance to run a Santa themed 5K which was a blast. After the race, Brayden and I went over to visit the birds and ducks at the lake front and he had a grand old time! These are the kind of moments I cherish and will remember always!

I hope you have a great rest of your week as we gear up for Christmas! Happy vlogidays! :) Thanks for following along in our journey!

Vlogidays Weekend Edition #4

This holiday season is seriously flying by! I can't believe it's only two weeks until Christmas!

Throughout this past weekend, I shared our crazy snow day with you as well as my long run, time spent with family, and our church production of The Grinch! It was another fabulous weekend where we made amazing memories that I know will last forever (and I'm not just saying that...we really had an amazing weekend)!

Thanks for sharing in our holiday weekends this year with us! We hope you're enjoying all the special moments this season has to offer!

Vlogidays Weekend Edition #1

As a return from last year, our holiday season will be shared again with you guys on my YouTube channel in my own little version of "Vlogidays - Weekend Edition"! The fun began this past weekend with several holiday themed festivities, including a few photo sessions and we began the house decorating process!

I had so much fun sharing our holiday season with you guys last year, and I had even more fun re-watching the videos this year and seeing how much Brayden has grown! It's so much fun to look back over the memories and reminisce a little!

Instead of sharing blog recaps of our weekends over the next 2 months, you'll find these video recaps instead. I hope you enjoy! :)

Have a happy Tuesday! If you're in the preparations for Thanksgiving, have fun!! :)

VLOG: Day 1, Animal Kingdom & EPCOT

So, yeah...it's been a long time, no vlog! I was asked by several people if I was planning on vlogging our October trip on the Disney Fantasy, so I decided to do so!

Today, I'm sharing day 1 with you guys where we traveled to Orlando, visited Animal Kingdom to explore Pandora, stopped by Food & Wine for a minute, toured our room at Caribbean Beach, and ended the night back at Animal Kingdom!

We did A LOT in one day, but we had a great time and loved every minute!

Check out the video below to see highlights from our day! :)

Vlog: 2017 runDisney Diaper Dash

Our first experience with runDisney's Diaper Dash was a fun one and definitely a memorable time for my family! Kids of all ages participated in races that included distances anywhere from a short dash for the babies all the way to a 1 mile fun run for the older kids!

We registered my 10 month old for the Diaper Dash that was held during the Princess Half Marathon Weekend and I captured video footage of the even to share with you!

Thanksgiving Weekend and Black Friday!

This holiday season, I'm trying a little something different!

Once a week for the remainder of 2016, I'm going to post vlogs to YouTube (and here) of our holiday weekend adventures! It's sort of my little take on "Vlogidays"/"Vlogmas"....weekends only! I'm also looking forward to sharing Brayden's first holidays with you!

It all began this past week with Thanksgiving and will continue throughout the upcoming weekends....you'll see a few races, out of town travels, Christmas events, parties, etc...

This past weekend was filled with a lot of fun times spent with family and friends - Thanksgiving, Black Friday shopping, and a Gilmore Girls reunion party!

Check out our fun-filled weekend below! :)

I hope you and your family had a blessed and Happy Thanksgiving!

How did you spend your holiday?
