I just couldn’t see us roughing it in the woods, cooking food over a campfire and sitting around singing Kumbaya. And I still don’t foresee that happening. I did, however, want to try camping at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort and Campground … which I consider to be [...]]]> http://www.mommymusings.com/camping-at-disneys-fort-wilderness/feed/ 2 http://www.mommymusings.com/tips-for-attending-mickey%e2%80%99s-very-merry-christmas-party/ http://www.mommymusings.com/tips-for-attending-mickey%e2%80%99s-very-merry-christmas-party/#comments Fri, 02 Dec 2011 00:27:57 +0000 admin http://www.mommymusings.com/?p=10055 Christmastime is in full swing at Walt Disney World, and no place has more holiday bling than the Magic Kingdom during Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party. My daughter and I are no strangers to this hard ticket event (meaning tickets are separate from regular day passes) and a few weeks ago we were invited to [...]]]> http://www.mommymusings.com/tips-for-attending-mickey%e2%80%99s-very-merry-christmas-party/feed/ 1 http://www.mommymusings.com/tips-for-attending-mickeys-not-so-scary-halloween-party/ http://www.mommymusings.com/tips-for-attending-mickeys-not-so-scary-halloween-party/#comments Thu, 22 Sep 2011 17:23:34 +0000 admin http://www.mommymusings.com/?p=8690 Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party is hands-down our favorite Disney World ticketed event. It’s a fun, good-spirited evening that the whole family can enjoy together. Since it is Not-So-Scary, even little ones who are typically scared of Halloween themes can have a great time. My family just attended Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party [...]]]> http://www.mommymusings.com/tips-for-attending-mickeys-not-so-scary-halloween-party/feed/ 7 http://www.mommymusings.com/mickeys-not-so-scary-halloween-party-2011-17-pictures/ http://www.mommymusings.com/mickeys-not-so-scary-halloween-party-2011-17-pictures/#comments Sun, 18 Sep 2011 01:27:51 +0000 admin http://www.mommymusings.com/?p=8595 Are you ready for some 2011 Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween fun?! Friday night my daughter and I, along with my mom and VERY pregnant sister, attended Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party at the Magic Kingdom. This was the second party for the season and our fifth year attending.  It just amazes me how [...]]]> http://www.mommymusings.com/mickeys-not-so-scary-halloween-party-2011-17-pictures/feed/ 4 http://www.mommymusings.com/fall-events-at-disney-world-mnsshp-epcot-food-wine-festival/ http://www.mommymusings.com/fall-events-at-disney-world-mnsshp-epcot-food-wine-festival/#comments Fri, 19 Aug 2011 18:40:39 +0000 admin http://www.mommymusings.com/?p=8091 It’s hard to believe that summer is almost over, but the new fall season brings two of my favorite Walt Disney World events: Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party and the Epcot International Food and Wine Festival. I can’t believe 2011 will be the 5th consecutive year that we will have attended Mickey’s Not So [...]]]> http://www.mommymusings.com/fall-events-at-disney-world-mnsshp-epcot-food-wine-festival/feed/ 1 http://www.mommymusings.com/tokyo-dining-at-epcot/ http://www.mommymusings.com/tokyo-dining-at-epcot/#comments Tue, 17 May 2011 15:00:10 +0000 admin http://www.mommymusings.com/?p=7303 I think it’s safe to say that Tokyo Dining is my favorite restaurant in Disney World. Don’t get me wrong, there are a lot of Disney dining options that rank up there (Le Cellier, California Grill), but consistently, Tokyo Dining at Epcot is our go-to choice. We’ve dined here more than a dozen times.

Coincidentally, it was also Pixar’s 25th Anniversary Weekend Celebrating Cars 2. This worked out perfectly because we are big fans of Disney/Pixar movies and can’t wait for the the premiere of Cars 2 in theatres June 24. The event also coincided with the final weekend of [...]]]> http://www.mommymusings.com/pixar-25th-anniversary-weekend-celebrating-cars-2-at-epcot/feed/ 4 http://www.mommymusings.com/duffy-bear-mickey-ears/ http://www.mommymusings.com/duffy-bear-mickey-ears/#comments Sun, 15 May 2011 19:12:43 +0000 admin http://www.mommymusings.com/?p=7293 I think I’m catching Duffy fever. That cute little Disney Bear was all over the Disney Parks this weekend, and as more and more merchandise becomes available, the more I want to add to my collection– which currently consists of two Duffy Bears. My new favorites are the Duffy Bear Mickey Mouse Ears… And this [...]]]> http://www.mommymusings.com/duffy-bear-mickey-ears/feed/ 3 http://www.mommymusings.com/la-cava-del-tequila/ http://www.mommymusings.com/la-cava-del-tequila/#comments Mon, 28 Mar 2011 19:02:54 +0000 admin http://www.mommymusings.com/?p=6807 It was my birthday.  I was in Epcot.  And there was only one place I wanted to celebrate– La Cava del Tequila in Mexico for one of their signature margaritas. Ole! I’m not going to lie, the margaritas here aren’t cheap. Starting at $12.50, each one will set you back almost $15 after tip.

As a fan of HGTV and Disney, I think this is a perfect partnership. Genevieve Gorder, Vern Yip and nine other HGTV design gurus appear for the first time at the festival during weekend presentations that cover [...]]]> http://www.mommymusings.com/2011-epcot-international-flower-garden-festival/feed/ 2
