Disney Premier Passport
If you guys follow me on Instagram then you may have already seen my post from yesterday. It’s official, for the first time in THREE YEARS I am no longer a Disney Annual Passholder. It’s a sad day but at the same time I’m so grateful for these past three years! I grew up at Disney (Disney World specifically). Some of my favorite childhood memories include my mom, sister and I at Disney World!

And even though I’ve been a huge Disney fan since I was a young child, it wasn’t until my adulthood that I truly fell in love with Disney. The Disney Parks were always a blast when I visited them as a kid but as an adult, it was a whole new experience!

Thanks Disney for making my adulthood so magical!

Visiting Casa Loma in Toronto, Ontario, Canada

October 12, 2018

Visiting Casa Loma in Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Fun fact: I LOVE X-Men. The X-Men were such a huge part of my childhood. From the comics to the several TV shows to the films, if it was X-Men related, I was here for it! In fact, before I named my dog Loki, I was seriously considering naming him after my all-time favorite Marvel villain, Magneto!

(What is it with me and villains?).

Speaking of Marvel, today marks day one of ACE Comic Con Midwest! (And I get to meet Marvel legends like Chris Evans and Tom Hiddleston). I can’t wait to pick up my press badge today after work. You can expect a full recap of ACE Comic Con Midwest probably on Monday.

But back to X-Men, as soon as I found out I’d be visiting Toronto, I knew that I HAD to visit Casa Loma. Aka the X-Mansion. Casa Loma is a gothic Revival style mansion and garden in midtown Toronto, that is now a museum and landmark. Continue reading →

Blind Box & Bag Roundup 45. (Funko Disney Afternoon Mystery Minis)

September 26, 2018

Funko Disney Afternoon Mystery Minis
A new Blind Box & Bag Roundup post?! Say what! I know it’s been FOREVER (like a year) since the last BB&BR post but hear me out, I just haven’t been into blind boxes/bags lately. In fact, these are the first blind boxes that I’ve bought in almost a year. Sure, I still think that they are adorable but I just haven’t been feeling them lately.

That is until I saw a bunch of blind boxes at Target that I just couldn’t pass up. Things have been a little rocky for me lately so anything to bring a little extra happiness into my life is a-okay in my book. Opening blind boxes have always put a smile on my face so I thought “why not?”.

While at Target last weekend I picked up a couple of Funko Disney Afternoon Mystery Minis, some Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts LEGO Minifigures, a few 90 Years of Magic Mickey blind bags and two squishy blind bags.

Today, I’ll be talking about the Funko Disney Afternoon Mystery Minis!

What I’m Looking Forward To This Fall (2018)

September 24, 2018

Halloween Disney Home Office Decor
Happy Monday and welcome back to another installment of my “What I’m Looking Forward To” series! Guys, it’s officially fall! I’m SO excited because, as most of you know, I’m not a huge fan of summer (it’s definitely be least favorite season #sorrynotsorry) and I’m glad that it’s finally over. 

The weather these past few days here in Chicago have been perfection! It’s been in the low 70s/high 60s and I’ve been loving it! Goodbye shorts and tanks, hello long sleeves and jeans! For me, fall means traveling, cozy sweaters, Halloween fun, fuzzy socks, gorgeous weather, delicious Thanksgiving food, hanging out with friends and everything in between! 

Here are a few of the things I’m looking forward to this fall (September 22 – December 21):
