Jurassic Park Themed Dinner
This week, we enjoyed a dinosaur-themed dinner while watching one of my favorite movies – Jurassic Park! The inspiration to have a Jurassic Park dinner came from a recent trip we took to Montana. During our visit, my kids were thrilled that dinosaurs seemed to be everywhere! Dinosaur museums, sculptures, and dig sites – we even met a family friend who found an actual Triceratops fossil in his own backyard! It’s incredible to think of the undiscovered history hidden right under our feet. Our Montana travels took us to Makoshika State Park, home to many prehistoric fossils including Triceratops and Tyrannosaurus rex. At the Visitor Center, we had the opportunity…

The BEST Places to Take a Break in EPCOT
This week, we are covering the best places to take a break in EPCOT. A full day at the Disney Parks can be EXHAUSTING. The early mornings, hot sun, long lines, and miles of walking each day really adds up. Taking breaks is essential, especially when traveling with little ones or guests with mobility issues or special needs. The best way to rest and recharge is to take a midday break at your resort. But that isn’t always the most convenient option for parkgoers. So, I’m creating a series of posts that cover the best spots to take a break in each Walt Disney World Park. And today, we are…

Onward Themed Dinner
This week’s Disney Dinner was themed to the family adventure film, Onward! Onward is the story of two teenage elf brothers (Ian and Barley) who embark on a magical quest for the chance to reunite with their departed father. As one would expect from a quest, the boys encounter perilous obstacles, magic spells, and dangerous curses on their exciting journey. Although we don’t see much of the boys’ father, Wilden, his impact in the film makes him one of my favorite Disney Dads. And as we gear up for Father’s Day, I thought it would be fitting to celebrate with an Onward themed dinner! There are TONS of great food…

Tangled Themed Dinner
This week, we enjoyed a special themed dinner inspired by Tangled! Tangled is Disney’s take on the classic fairytale of Rapunzel. Hidden away in a tower her entire life, Rapunzel dreams of one day leaving to see the world. When her opportunity arrives, she seizes the moment, and adventure ensues! Tangled is a favorite in our home. With plenty of laughs, catchy musical numbers, touching moments, and lovable characters – there is something for everyone to enjoy. Our Tangled dinner menu was inspired by food that appears in the film as well as Rapunzel’s long, golden locks. Since her hair plays a pivotal role in the film, I wanted to…

Bambi Themed Dinner
This week, we welcomed the arrival of spring with a Bambi themed dinner! In the film, spring is greeted by the woodland creatures with excitement and celebration. The feeling is mutual at our home as we eagerly look forward to warm and sunny days. Now I must make a confession here – Bambi is not one of my favorite Disney films. (*Gasp!*) My five-year-old had never seen it prior to this dinner because I’ve failed to make it a viewing priority. And the reason for my Disney parenting misstep is because…well…Bambi is sad! But Bambi is one of Walt’s classics, and the perfect film to usher in spring. So, I…
