Fulton's Crab House was amazing, and I don't even really eat seafood. They brought a crab dip out while we waited for our food and I ate it all. The food was delicious. I ordered the chicken & gnocchi and he ordered the jambalaya. Also, our handy-dandy "Happy Anniversary" button struck again, and we were given a free dessert (4th free dessert this week). I'm putting this on my "must go to" list for our next visit.
Dinner at Wolfgang Pucks. The food was absolutely amazing. I ordered the duck and my husband got the New York strip steak. This was probably the best meal I have ever eaten in my life. Go to Wolgang's. Trust me.
Hanny wasn't tall enough to ride Expedition Everest this year, but since she measured and was a little sad, the Cast Member gave her this card that she said would work as a fast pass for our entire party as soon as she's tall enough to ride it. Pretty awesome.
STAR WARS WILL BE AVAILABLE FRIDAY ON ITUNES!!!!! YOU CAN PRE-ORDER ALL SIX EPISODES RIGHT NOW!
Why You SHOULD Take Young Kids to Disney World: I had a three year old, and I was pregnant with the next one. My Mom kept trying to get me to use a friend's Disney Vacation Club week so we could go to Disney World, but I kept saying that I just wanted them to be able to remember it. That was my excuse for waiting until my first born was at least 5. Luckily, I went ahead and gave it a try and we have been going back every year ever since.
Here's why I changed my entire mindset on taking young children.
Kids are free until they turn 3. F-R-E-E, FREE! If you go eat at a buffet, they’re free, when you’re buying park tickets, they’re free, when you are booking your room, free. I cannot emphasize enough how wonderful it is to spend $500 less than you would with a child who is 3 & up.Â
It’s not as hard as you think to take little ones through the park all day. The park is very stroller friendly, and they can ride most of the rides at Magic Kingdom. I wore my youngest in an ErgoBaby Carrier for two years straight and I never even had to take her out. We just hopped on the rides with her safely in the carrier. She slept half the time we were at the park.
Rider Swap Passes, make it possible for one spouse to wait in line and ride a ride with an older child, and then allow the other parent ride with the child without waiting in line a second time. Two rides, one time waiting in line. Win, win!Â
When you take your baby to the beach or to another vacation location, you are usually chasing them all over the place while your spouse and/or family members are napping or reading.  At Disney World, everyone is with you, you are getting on and off rides, you’re eating together, or going to the pool. It’s much more inclusive for parents of young children because you’re all in it together.Â
And finally, there’s the wonder. They may not remember going to Disney World at such a young age, but I promise you, you will never forget it. To this day, I still remember the look on my baby’s face when the Festival of the Lion King began. To me this is what makes it worth it.Â
Take your babies to Disney World!
Two Bedroom Villa Rooms at Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort
2015 Pricing: $ 618-1015 depending on the season. September pricing-weekday rates $618/$743 & weekend rates $618/$743. (Weekend rates and Weekday rates are the same.)
Pro Tip: If you don’t mind booking at the last minute, you can usually snag these rooms for around $460-470/night in September when they offer the 25% room discount deal.Â
Resort Level: Deluxe Villas
Beds: 2 Bedrooms (One room with a King sized bed, One room with 2 Queen sized beds, and a pull out couch in the living room).
Bath: 2 Bathrooms (One with a tub/shower combo and one with a seperate shower and a separate garden sized tub with two sinks that is located in the Master Bedroom.)
Sleeps: 8
Pros:
This place is amazing. The pool is great, the nightly movie is shown at the main pool so you can actually watch it from inside the pool. They have two little splash pad zones that are equally as fun.
Walking distance to Downtown Disney.
This is our family’s favorite place to stay. When we split the cost between two families it’s comparable to any other moderate hotel. Plus you have the kitchen and full sized fridge. Perfect for having groceries delivered and eating dinner at home (if you don’t have an eat-for-free package that is).
Cons:
No Mousekeeping, they drop off supplies for you daily, but they do not clean your room or vacuum for you while you are at the park. The rooms do have vacuum cleaners so you can pick up after yourself.
Once you stay here, you will get spoiled and can have a hard time staying at a moderate or value resort.
At the the Disney Outlet Store and towels are $10. They had a ton of boy options also including Star Wars. Time to stock up.
They have a Frozen Fever Anna at the Disney Outlet Store! $19.95.
Frozen Fever
Cinderella has the cutest short called Frozen Fever that is shown just before the movie. It’s adorable, you won’t want to miss it!
Tinkerbell and the Legend of the Neverbeast
If you love Fawn, Scout Fairies, or movies that give you the feels, you’ll love this one. It’s available on iTunes now.
Standard Rooms at Disney’s All Star Music Resort
2015 Pricing: $85-199 depending on the season. September pricing-weekday rates $92/$98 & weekend rates $112/$119.
Resort Level: Value
Beds: 2 Double Beds
Bath: 1 Bathroom
Sleeps: 4
Pros:
The pricing is very low. Sometimes half of what you will pay at a Moderate.
The outdoor theming is super fun for kids.
Mousekeeping works hard to give the kids fun characters to come home to, so be sure to tip them.
Cons:
Double beds can be a tight fit with two adults.
Wi-fi and cell reception can be spotty here.
Shared buses between all All Star Resorts.
Pro Tip: The families at the value resorts are usually really festive. Most decorate their room windows, especially around the holidays, with Disney related garlands, or cricut cuttings of characters, or just their family name. You may want to consider checking out a few Pinterest options and seeing if you want to participate.
Toy Story Land located in Hong Kong Disneyland: My vote for the next big expansion in Disney World would be to make a huge Toy Story Land similar to the this one.Â

Never Been, But Going Soon:
Our next new choice restaurant is the Biergarten Restaurant at Epcot.
Why We Picked It:Â Akershus is great, but once a vacation is enough for us. We were looking for a great Disney Dining restaurant and unanimously decided on this one. Biergarten is a buffet that features German food, but that's not even the best part. It's themed to look like a small German village outside during Oktoberfest and features a German band to watch while you eat!

Never Been, But Going Soon:Â
There are more than a few Disney Dining options that I have never tried despite going to Disney World every year. I want to spotlight a few that I'm very excited about putting into our yearly rotation this fall, starting with Boma Flavors of Africa.
Why We Picked It: One of our favorite Character Buffets is the Tusker House at Animal Kingdom, and after reviewing the similar menu at Boma, it is sure not to disappoint. The food will be different, but you can bet if it's a Disney Buffet, it will still be delicious. Also there are always more than a few "normal" kid-friendly options that you can fill your plate from if you get desperate.Â
The moral of the story is, don't be afraid to try new things, especially at Disney World.Â
That Awkward Moment When
You make a big mistake saying there are no elevators in all of Port Orleans Riverside, and you correct it, but can’t fix the reblogs. Sorry guys. Some of the buildings in Port Orleans DO have elevators. They include the Magnolia Bend Rooms and the Royal Guest Rooms in the Mansions buildings. Thank you to my follower with an eye for detail, who pointed this out to me.
