I originally posted my food report over at the Disboards from our Disneyworld trip, and thought it might be enjoyed here on my blog. If you have been to Disneyworld you may know the craziness of planning your meals 6 months ahead of your trip. Reservations can be made at 180 days for your trip […]
Last Christmas I decided to make my nieces and nephews dress up clothes for their gifts. For the girls I made Cinderella dresses and a Pirate and Woody (from Toy Story) for the boys. The gifts went over well, thank goodness since I was sewing day and night for two weeks to get them in […]
