Disney 2016: Day 3

11:15 a.m.
Good morning lovelies, it's Disney Day!!

I have had a countdown going on my phone for almost a year now, so seeing that 0 was the greatest thing ever!

I got up about 8 this morning and went for a walk on the beach before it was time to go, and you will never believe what I found...

A baby sea turtle! I was running/walking at the edge of the water and just happened to notice it.  I know you aren't supposed to touch them, but it looked dead so I went ahead, and it moved!  I think it must have washed up and couldn't get back, so I just wanted to help...

I put it back in the water and it swam a little, so I hope it made it...  Seeing a live baby sea turtle not in an aquarium is a total dream of mine, and the fact that I got to pick it up and feel it's little heartbeat amazes me!

After that we got ready and went down for breakfast, packed up our things, and are now on our way to Disney!

Today I am wearing my favorite romper from Forever 21, my FitBit, and my magic band and ears since I can finally do that without people thinking I'm weird!

12:10 p.m.
We just got out of Walmart (there has never been a quick trip to Walmart...) and now we are on our way to the Disney Outlet before we go in to Disney!

3:30 p.m.
Well that was an ordeal and a half but it was definitely worth it! The outlet mall where the Character Warehouse is was a madhouse! But I got a couple of cute things, and a few presents, for significantly cheaper than they would have been in the parks, so I'd say that it was a success!

5:15 p.m.
We are here! We are staying at Allstar Music resort, and of the ones we've been to it definitely is not my favorite... But we are at Disney so it doesn't matter!


Tonight we are going to dinner at Captain Cooks at the Polynesian resort, and then watching the fireworks!
I had Nachos on homemade chips and they were really really good... I'd heard Captain Cooks was good, but I was impressed!

9:45 p.m.
We finished dinner a couple hours ago and since then we've been resort hopping between the Polynesian and the Grand Floridian.

Resort hopping is always a lot of fun because we get to enjoy a lot of the amenities of the deluxe resorts without paying the exorbitant prices!  Things like the live music at the Grand Floridian.

And the floor... I love the pretty designs on the floor.

They also have their own Basin, similar to the one in Disney Springs, but this is Basin White with cleaner scents and a few different products.

This is a view of the Grand Floridian after dark, it truly is a gorgeous resort.

We also spent some time at the Polynesian, my dream resort, before the fireworks and did some pictures at sunset!

I thought the sunset in this picture was gorgeous... These deck chairs are also where we watched the fireworks from with our Dole Whips!  They pipe in the music and you can just relax without any crowds and enjoy the fireworks. 
Afterwards we headed back to our resort to get ready for our first day in 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 days!  If you missed yesterday you can see Days 1 and 2 here, or go to the Disney 2016 tag to see the full series!

My Petal Club

A new box!  And a PERIOD subscription box at that!  I love finding new boxes to try out, especially when they are this affordable!  This box is normally $6.99 per month, but if you use the discount code "SUMMER" on mypetalclub.com , this box will be only $3.50!  And let's be honest, one box of pads/tampons is usually more expensive than that, so why not give it a try?? So this box primarily consists of just the period products with very few extras.  This isn't one of the present, feel-good kind of boxes, it just provides you with the necessary products to get through the month, at an affordable price. Step One The first thing you do on their website is choose the combination of products you will need.  Be warned, you aren't given as much of a selection if you order through Cratejoy like I did.  It worked totally fine and I still got the products I needed, but I like choice!  So I suggest going straight through their website....

Best Beach Ever!

So... I am debating on if I should even share this with you because it is so amazing! This is the most absolutely amazing beach I have ever been to in my life! It is Emerald Isle NC it is perfect!  So in my mind it is so perfect because: It is on the beautiful coast of North Carolina (which is where I live, and where I love!) It's name is Emerald ISLE so its on a cute little island (Duh!), at some places o the island you can see the Bogue Sound (yes this is a body of water, and yes this is a real place) and the Atlantic Ocean on the other It is a quite little town so everyone if friendly, and the beaches are never crowded There is a nice little aquarium just up the island a bit The is a little shopping center called Emerald Plantations that includes a movie theater , restaurants, shops, and a river where you can feed Sea Turtles (this is especially fun because there's one that is bigger than my six year old brother! It lives at the bottom and only comes up occasiona...

Fab Ab February

So I have been big into working out lately, because who doesn't want to look their very best when vacation time comes! I found this workout calendar on Pinterest so I'm not able to give you the link to the exact website but I thought if you liked it enough you could copy, or print it out. I have been looking for the rest of the months that go with this but so far this is the only one I've found. I am doing it myself and so far its working pretty well, I would love for you to do this with me, just comment below and tell me any of your thoughts about it . Enjoy!! :)
