Disney 2016: Beach Days 1 and 2

Day 1

3:40 a.m.
It's DISNEY DAY!

We are currently headed to Daytona beach for two nights before the Disney vacation part begins, and then we will be in Disney from the 31st to the 11th of August!

I set not one but two alarms to get up this morning so we could leave by 3, and still did not get up until late... They didn't even phase me with two hours of sleep!

The plan to day is basically just driving aaaaaaall day... But it's all worth it for Disney!

6:35 a.m.
We just stopped at a rest stop somewhere in South Carolina! Now we are back on the road and headed to a Cracker Barrel on the other side of Colombia, South Carolina. It is a tradition that we always stop and have breakfast there on the way to vacation, and we aren't breaking it now!
We got to see the prettiest sunrise while we were stopped!

9:00 a.m.
Cracker Barrel time!

2:25 p.m.
It's been a while since I last checked in, but truthfully not much has happened… We stopped at a gross rest stop in Georgia, and then drove a few more hours. Around 1 we stopped at the official Florida visitors center, which is always fun to do! 
I picked up a few more Disney brochures that I didn't need, and baby cups of orange juice!

Now we are back to driving...

3:45 p.m.
12 hours later, we are here!
Dad wouldn't really tell us where we were staying, and it turned out he had gotten us a really nice resort in Daytona!

Here is the bedroom...

And the kitchen...

And the gorgeous view from our Balcony!!

7:45 p.m.
Since getting here we have unpacked, been to the beach, showered, and now we are on our way to eat.

We decided to come on in from the beach because this big storm was rolling in... Kind of scary, but also gorgeous.

9:45 p.m.
We ate at I-Hop...  But it's ok! Because here we are, 18 hours later, about to go to bed on the first night of our two week vacation!


Day 2

10:40
Good morning! We have been up for about two hours now and are just about ready to go to the beach! We woke up late and had a leisurely morning getting ready and having Breakfast at our resort, now we are headed down to the beach!

3:00 p.m.
This has been the most chill day... We went to the pool around 12:30 and then up to our room for lunch about 1:00. After lunch we've just been sitting on the beach and playing in the ocean!
Mom went into the Happy Hour at our hotel and asked for two "pink virgin fruity fizzy things."  I was pretty happy about it!

I love my floppy hat <3

Have to read up on Disney before we get there!  The water kept coming up higher and higher to my chair and towels!


7:45 p.m.
We came in from the beach about 6:30 and since then have been getting ready to go out and eat!

9:15 p.m.
We picked Crabby Joe’s in Daytona! I had clam strips with mashed potatoes, which is pretty much the only seafood I eat, and it was pretty great!

11:15 p.m.

We are back at the hotel and just chilling before bed. I know today was pretty boring and uneventful, but tomorrow we are off to Disney!

Thank you all so much for reading! I thought it would be fun to have a little summer Disney sun to brighten up snowy winter day!  If you miss any of the coming days you can go to the Disney 2016 tag to see the full series!

Mail Time: TheECPlannerKitLady Sticker Haul

So apparently Halloween was mail day for me!  I checked my mailbox that morning after class and found a few fun things, and then later I got a notification that a package had been delivered, so why not check again?  I found my package and another letter!  It hadn't been such a great weekend, so finding all of the fun things waiting for me on Monday perked me right up! I got three cards, one from my mom, my mom's coworker, and my grandmother!  I thought it was fun that all three had puppies. My mother also sent me a huge box of Halloween goodies!  Candy, tattoos, donuts, fake bugs, all kinds of fun stuff! But now on to the true meat of this post, I recently placed two orders with  TheECPlannerKitLady  on Etsy!  I know two is a bit excessive, but first she had a sale, and then she offered a discounted grab bag, both just for members of her Facebook group !  Planner stickers can be very expensive, so I jump at opportunities to...

Empties!

I would just like you all to know that I did NOT use up all of these up this month, or even some time lately! I have been collecting these since back before Summer even! So no hate please and I'm not bragging, I just thought it would be a cool post :) Shampoo & Conditioner Pantene Smoothing Shampoo - I liked this, it smelled really good, but I couldn't really tell a difference when I was using it. It didn't make my hair any less frizzy than any other products. I might repurchase this later, but I like to change up my shampoo and conditioner pretty often Pantene Volumizing Shampoo and Conditioner for Fine Hair - First of all, I do not have fine hair I actually have quite thick hair! So I got this sort of by mistake... Also, I got the Shampoo as a smaller size free with the conditioner. I feel the same way about it that I do the Conditioner above, It didn't do a whole lot but it was nice. So I may or may not repurchase it again. VO5 Clarifying Shampoo - I a...
