Disney Movie Sunday

The Frost Fairies
So i know it has been a while since i posted, i missed a movie Sunday last week, and fun facts Friday and toy Thursday, but sometimes that happens when you have a lot going on, and internet not wanting to work they way you want it to, but I am here today to post about a new Disney Movie that just came out on DVD. My little girl is a big fan of Tinkerbell, or at least she was. The new movie came out and I went and got it where I am at, so I can see what it was all about. And I just loved the movie.

Old and New fairy friends
The Secret of the Wings is the fourth Movie in the Tinkerbell movies, in this movie Tinkerbell being her curious self wants to adventure into the winterwoods. while there she meets another fairy and turns out to be something magical for the both of them. I do not want to ruin the movie for you if you have not seen it yet. But its not a bad movie, there are somethings that make you question it, but then again it still a great movie for families that have more then one child. If you seen it let me know I like to know what you all think. there not much information out on IMBD yet about facts or anything, but just remember it just came out last month, can not wait for my daughter to see it, and give her the new dolls that I bought her that go with the movie. Already bought her five dolls. LOL. Guess that what happens when your not home.

Toy Thursday


Ever Thursday I am going to give a review on a toy from Disney this week is a gift that my daughter got for her birthday. Which was a Disney Tangled Tower, which is the polly pocket size one.

This toy is the perfect size for little hands, like my daughter. I found it online when I was shopping for something to get her, and since I got this she is now all into tangled. It is her new favorite toy to play with now. Did not think that this would be something that would be a big hit with her, but it was. I was so glad that I got it. It is around 39.00 I believe, which is not bad. I has one doll and pascal. The top opens and closes.

Since I got this for my daughter I went and bought her another tangled set that came with Finn and a Horse, which she loves horses which made me pick up that set, and there was also another Tangled doll in it. This is a great toy for little girls.

I would so get this over again for my daughter, she has a lot of little sets that she does not know about that will be perfect with this for Christmas.

Disney Meet and Greets


Here is my daughter meeting the rabbit from bambi,
She followed him to be the first to meet him.
When ever we go to Disney I have to do meet and greets, because it is a Disney thing. I remember last October when we took my daughter I was scared to do some of them because I did not know how she was going to react, she was only 2 years old at the time. I was thinking she might run away and not want to go near them. But boy was I wrong. At first she was scared because who wouldn't be if there was some big bear looking at you, but after a while she was alright, she went right up to all of them. but the princess, she did not take well to them. It might be because she had not seen them before, but that was alright to me, she did very well for her age. After the first meeting she did well with meeting them. After meeting Mickey she was great. I believe it is because she has seen Mickey on TV and it was the best time she ever had, when i told her we would meet Mickey later she could not stop talking about it.








Mickey was her favorite to meet, and i love how the maps show you where they will be and times, like at Epcot. I was able to almost meet all the princesses.
we waited 45 min, but she was so happy to meet mickey.

 This photo is funny, It looks like she is about to hit Donald Duck but she was giving hm a high five, which i just caught the picture at the right moment. This is at Epcot














I do not know what she is doing right here
While Hanny Manning was signing her
book
Time to give Goofy a kiss, this was so cute. She was having so much fun. Though I know that she will not remember I have all the photo's for her to remember it all.




Meet and Greets are great, anyone going to Disney should enjoy thing.

Disney Movie Sunday

Ever Sunday I am going to pick a movie and talk about it, this weeks movies is.....


Aladdin......

I just rewatched this movie, as I have not seen in in a very long time, and thought that this would be the movie I pick to blog about this week. Aladdin is a story about a young man and his best friend Abu, this story is very sweet and a great love story, but it is not centered around a princess the whole movie, it is more about Aladdin, which I think is a great movie for boys to watch also. Aladdin is also a good move because it can teach girls how to find someone they love not based on looks or where they come from but who the person is on the inside.

Facts about the movies.
  • When the film was first released on VHS in October 1993, it sold over 10.8 million copies in its first week and went on to sell over 25 million in total. This record stood for only two years when it was beaten by the release of The Lion King.
  • The color design of the film was inspired by old Persian miniatures and Victorian paintings of the Middle East.  
  • Jafar at first was more hot-tempered, while Iago was a cool, haughty British type. The filmakers felt that having Jafar losing his temper too much made him less menacing, so the personalities of the two characters were switched around. 
  • Whenever Aladdin tells a lie, the plume on his hat falls and covers his face.  
  • When Aladdin realizes that he might become the next sultan he worries and the Genie tries to cheer him up by saying, "Aladdin, you've just won the heart of the princess! What are you going to do next?", setting him up for the popular Disney advertising campaign line, "I'm going to Disney World!" Aladdin does not say this, but we hear the Disney theme music in the background. Similarly, when the Genie gets ready to leave at the end of the film, he is wearing a Disney souvenir Goofy hat. 

Quotes from the movie:
  •  Merchant: Look at this! Yes! Heh, heh. Combination hookah and coffee maker, also makes Julienne fries. Will not break!
    [taps it on table]
    Merchant: Will not-
    [it falls apart]
    Merchant: It broke! 
  • Princess Jasmine: Father, I choose Prince Ali!
    Jafar: Prince Ali left!
    [shows Aladdin standing in the doorway to the balcony]
    Aladdin: Better check your crystal ball again, Jafar!
    Princess Jasmine: Prince Ali!
    Iago: How in the he- Uh, awk!  





Here is a Photo of me and my Princess Haley meeting Jasmine and Aladdin, can not wait to do it again in January of 2013

Fun Facts Friday

Each Friday I am going to post some facts about Disney World, Disneyland, or Disney Movies.

Today we are going to talk about five Bizarre Facts about Disney, these facts are things I have found online and I did not know about.

5. There are hidden Mickey Mouse ears all over the theme parks. These can be anywhere in the park, though paintings or on the ground with shapes of the rocks. I did not know this one, though maybe I should have since I have been to Disney World so many time. Next time I go which is in 2013 I am going to try and find as many as I can while I am there, and take some photos.

4. This was back in the day, well in the 60's which was back in the day for me. That if you were a male and you worked at Disney you were not allow to have facial hair, you had to be clean cut and looked nice, it was not until the 2000's when men were allowed to have facial hair that was neat.

3. Like many jobs you should not date someone that you work with. That is the same with Disney, you are not allowed to date someone that also works at Disney. Also cast members are not allowed to flirt with guest.

2. We all have heard about the Disney vault, where your favorite movies are put back in the vault, well these movies are held inside the vault for ten years before they are released again, so if you favorite movie is out right now you might want to get it if not then you have to wait ten years for it to come out again.

1. Because Walt wanted to ensure that everything would be as magical as possible when Disneyland was being built in the early 50s, he had an apartment built in the theme park, which was an hour from where he lived in California. Employees would know when he was in the apartment, above the fire station on Main Street USA, when the light was on in the window at night. To this day, more than 45 years after his death, a light is left on in the window in his memory and supposedly the room has been left untouched since he passed away. Perhaps Mickey’s Ears are not the only things you could ever see at Disneyland.

Disney Toy's Thursday


Every Thursday I am going to pick a Disney toy that my daughter has or will have or Christmas and tell you all what I think about them. Most will be Princess stuff, but she does have other things.

How many of you all have seen these dolls, the Disney Animation Collection, I have seen these for a while at Disney Store and want to get the whole collection for my daughter for Christmas but I seems like I wont get them all just in time for that, but these dolls are so perfect that I had to get a few for my daughter. My daughter has a lot of My First Disney Princess dolls, but these ones looked so cute that I want to get these for her. Right now I have two at the house, Jasmine and Phocahots at the house and just got the Tangled one for her because she is so into Tangled right now. These are right now 20.00 dollars at www.disneystore.com they are normal 24.50 which is not that bad of a price at all, I think those are a perfect price for these dolls, and though i have only seen the ones that i bought though skype, I love them. Can not wait to get the other ones for my daughter. I do love that they each have an animal with them. Also another thing I like about these over the My First Princess dolls, is that Ariel has fins like she should because she did not have human legs until the end of the movie not when she was a toddler.

Have any of you all collected these, what do you guys think about these. Let me know. I am now on 3 out of 10 to get.

Disney Movie night Menu's






So since I have time to be planning these family movie nights, I have menu and ticket ideas I would love to share with all of you. I have made three menu's and three sets of tickets for three out of six movie nights I have planned when I am coming home, I have came up with five movie nights and thinking about one more. Since I am going to be staying at the Art of Animation resort when I go to Disney I am doing a movie night on The Lion King, Finding Nemo, Cars, and The Little Mermaid. And as you read in the first post my first movie night is Tangled. I have came up with menu's and tickets for Tangled, Lion King, and Little Mermaid. Here are the menu's that I have made for those nights.








I am in love with The Little Mermaid one, I think it is the best one that I made though these are only made with powerpoint. I do miss my photoshop when it comes to making these kind of things.





Next up are moving tickets, I saw these on someone else blog and wanted to make them because I thought these would be cute. I have three of them made these were simple to make, and if anyone wants to use them you all are welcome to. These are just simple ones that I made and I think they are just so cute.

Here are the Little Mermaid ones I liked this picture that i used of Ariel and Eric.



Tangled ones are cute, I wanted to uses one with all of them, but this one stood out to me because this is how Tangled it.


The Lion King is my favorite movie I love the tickets I made for this one.




If anyone would like any let me know I can make more.
