The Pirate and the Pixie

Once upon a time a geeky pirate met a crazy pixie. They became the best of friends, fell in love, and were eventually married...thus began a multitude of thrilling adventures. If you haven't guessed, that pirate and fairy were us. We're Vince and Erika, and this is our story... Disney. Disneybounding. Marvel. Cosplay (noobs). Whovians. OUAT. Parenthood. Comic Books. Etc.

Throwing it back to this refreshing Frozen Hot Chocolate because I really want a cup of hot cocoa to celebrate #ChristmasInJuly but the summer heat is being rude. 😅 Recipe link in bio! 🍫🎄 . . . . #frozenhotchocolate #disneyeats #disneyrecipe #disneymom #disneysmmoms #pluto #popcornbucket #disneychristmas #dessert #mydisneyhome #disneylifestyle (at Main Street, U.S.A.)

Headed home and ready for another full day in the car! To help pass the time I posted another one of those question prompt thingies in my #instastory. So if you have a question for me (or @vkzawa, @zoeismagic, and/or Caleb) ask away! We’ll just be out here driving through Texas and listening to Harry Potter on @audible_com. 🚙 #HomewardBound . . 📸: @disneybysteph . . . . #roadtrip #disneyfamily #disneyland #toontown #minniestyle #rainbowears #minnieears #disneystyle #disneyootd #disneygirl #disneyblogger #blackgirlmagic #disneymom #wocblogger #disgram (at Mickey's Toontown)

You can find guava in just about everything in Miami from barbecue sauce to empanadas. So to say farewell, I made these Mickey Mouse breakfast pastries filled with guava and cream cheese to eat on the go. Swipe to see the filling.

Last day in Miami and I’m pretty in my feelings about it. Being all together as a family for the past several weeks has been an absolute DREAM and I’m so thankful for every moment. But I’m also excited to get back to la la land to find new adventures. Job changes, a new school year, and @shopcastlecravings’ very first pop-up all await us when we return. I also reeeeaaally miss Disneyland, lol. So while my heart hurts every time I have to say goodbye to @normanvickersjr, we’ve also been doing this for the past 15 years... so I guess we’re used to it. 😆 See ya real soon, Cali! . . . . #personal #inmyfeelings #disneybound #liloandstitch #lilodisneybound #torridfashion #torridfangirl #stitchpurse #disneystyle #beachstyle #miamibeach #southbeach #ldr #disneyootd (at South Beach, Miami)

This man works tirelessly to support his family. He loves and accepts me for who I am and has stuck by my side when other people would’ve surely run for the hills. He believes in me and all of my crazy dreams and finds ways to help make them a reality. He’s my irl Prince Charming and at the risk of inflating his ego, I believe that there isn’t anything he can’t do once he’s determined to do it. I am literally the luckiest woman in the world. I love you babe. Thank you for everything @vkzawa. 💕 . . . . #disneycouple #disneyworld #wdw #disneyfamily #disneyboardwalk #kissing #marriedlife #teammarried #disneystyle #bwwm #interracialcouple #disneytravel #disneymom #disneydad #disneyblogger (at Disney's Boardwalk Resort)

Wishing the happiest of birthdays to the place where I found my tribe. Last year on this day a few of us got together after #D23 and disneybounded as the different lands of #Disneyland to celebrate the anniversary of opening day. This is just part of the group, but it was such a fun day I wanted to share a pic and reminisce. I also love everyone in this photo a whole lot.

I will probably get yelled at for this, but can we replace Cosmic Ray’s Starlight Lounge with a Toy Story themed restaurant in which Wheezy is the lounge crooner??? Cus I think that would be amazing ...albeit out of place. 🤔 Lol. Maybe it needs to just be a separate restaurant altogether. 😅 What do you guys think? . . . . #wheezy #toystory #toystoryland #pixar #yougotafriendinme #hayunamigoenmi #wdw #hollywoodstudios #cosmicrays #imagineering #disneydining #disneymom #disneyblogger #slinkydogdash (at Disney's Hollywood Studios)

This West Coast gal got to check off two bucket list items this morning: 1) Ate at Waffle House for the first time, 2) Watched a Miami Beach sunrise. One of these experiences was significantly more magical than the other...but I wouldn’t change a thing about either. ☀️💕 . . . . #miamibeach #travel #lifeguardtower #beachbum #summervibes #miamisummer #southbeach #travellingmom #magicalgirl #blackgirlmagic #travelblogger #wocblogger #mycolorfullife #plussizestyle #beachlife #miamilife #miamimom #bodypositive #treatyoself (at Miami Beach, Florida)
