TARDIS Mouse Ears

A new season of Doctor Who started this past Saturday.  It was the twelfth Doctor's first full episode and he is played by Peter Capaldi.  Although he's different and older than the last few, he still embodies everything I love about the Doctor so I was pleasantly surprised!  I'm looking forward to the next episode.  In celebration of the new season starting, I am sharing my TARDIS mouse ears with you all!

Tips for running your first runDisney race

 

There are some exciting runDisney events coming up at Disneyland including this year's Disneyland Half Marathon weekend at the end of this month and the inaugural Avengers Half Marathon weekend in November.  It's been almost a year since I did my first runDisney race, the Disneyland 10k.  I remember being very nervous in the days leading up to it so I am sharing some of what I learned at my first 10k in hopes that it'll help any other runDisney newbie's fears!  So here are some tips to help you prepare and to ease any pre-race jitters!

Doctor Who and Wings 3D

I was unable to post last week but it was for happy reasons!  One of those reasons was that I spent Monday and Tuesday evenings celebrating David Tennant.  It was a good week! 

- TYPO ON THE SCREEN BUT TENNANT LOOKS GOOD!  :) -

For my fellow Whovians, I thought I'd share a little bit about the 2 night event.  A while back, I read that Fathom Events was going to show two Doctor Who episodes that starred David Tennant (the 10th Doctor) in select theaters.  The ticket for it included a screening of the documentary Wings the next day which is narrated by him.  My husband and I enjoyed watching the Doctor Who 50th Anniversary Special on the big screen last year so we decided to go!

Disneyland Soccer Shirts

The World Cup starts today so to celebrate I'm sharing photos of soccer shirts I saw at the World of Disney store in Disneyland's Downtown Disney.  I believe they may be at a couple other stores in the parks as well. 

Disney at the Tonys 2014

Last night I watched the Tony Awards.  I love theater and it was a big part of my years in high school.  My theater teacher would always encourage us to watch the Tonys on television during the summer and I have always tried to ever since.

There were several faces that would be familiar to a Disney fan at the Tonys this year and even a performance from Disney's Aladdin so I am sharing some of them here!   So here goes- let's start off this week at the theater!

Easter Eggs at Disneyland's Springtime Roundup

This year instead of the Bunny Hop on Main Street that they had last Easter, you can find lots of springtime and Easter fun (including the bunny hop!) at the Springtime Roundup at Big Thunder Ranch Jamboree.  I've gone a couple times so far and the last time I was there, I had a nice time looking at the amazing art that their egg decorators have created.  They didn't seem to be actual eggs but I thought it was awesome anyway.  The egg decorators were there working on more and as someone who loves to paint designs on my nails, watching them paint definitely made me jealous of how they get to spend their day!  There was so much creative work to look at so I took several photos to share with you all!

Places to Grab a Beer at Disney California Adventure

St. Patrick's Day is coming up and although it's not my favorite, I do love an excuse to pull out my Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle shirt (one of my only green t-shirts) and of course to have a cold beer!

Four years ago, I shared a list of spots around California Adventure to grab a beer.  The list is a bit outdated now so I thought it was time for a revised list!

*Note- Tower of Terror does not sell beer but is a good place to take a picture of it.  haha.  If your elevator ever makes it up to the Tip Top Club though I imagine you'd find some there. 

Dapper Day Spring 2014 Recap- Part 2

At the end of Part 1 of my recap, I had just left the Dapper Day Boutique at the Grand Californian.  From there I headed over to Disneyland with my friend Hope and her husband. We were going to meet back up with more friends there so we found a spot near the flagpole and waited.

While we were waiting, someone from the Disney Style Blog approached us to see if we'd participate in an interview.  We said yes so they filmed us while they asked us about Dapper Day.  I also told them about my Orange Bird inspired outfit.  Very exciting!

Dapper Day Spring 2014 Recap- Part 1

This past Sunday I was able to go to another Spring Dapper Day at Disneyland. I've gone the last two years and it has been amazing to see how much the event has grown!  The amount of people dressed up this year was definitely the most I had seen at Dapper Day.  It also meant the park was extra crowded but I had a great time walking around and taking it all in!

To start off, I'll share what I wore! 

Inaugural Tinker Bell 10k

A couple weekends ago I completed the Inaugural Tinkerbell 10k.  On the morning of the 10k, my husband dropped me off at Tiffy's on Katella Avenue.  It was the perfect spot because it was a short distance to the start from there.  I found my friend Mindy and then we walked over together.  We were in Corral D which was near the Paradise Pier Hotel.  It was cold out but I preferred it to the humid weather at the Disneyland 10k last year.  I enjoyed jogging in this weather much better!
