Disney’s “Blank: A Vinylmation Love Story” Short Film

Mar 102014

My love for Disney is certainly no surprise to those of you whom have been reading this blog for any length of time. I’ve loved all things Disney since I was just little, and laying eyes on Cinderella Castle for the first time simply cemented the connection for me. The magic of Disney, the attention to detail, none of it was lost on me.

When Disney first released their collection of Vinylmations, I wasn’t quite sure what to make of them. The small collectibles – their names derive from a combination of the words animation and vinyl – come in a variety of sizes. They’re all shaped like Mickey Mouse but have different colors and markings to represent everything related to Disney.

I don’t yet have much of a collection, but I do have a few special ones. One of the Bakery series, one with the year on it, a few of the characters I really love. I’m also looking forward to adding one that Bubbles gets to choose when we take our first Disney World trip. Continue reading »

Over the past few weeks, we’ve been enjoying watching Thor: The Dark World Blu-ray/DVD combo pack. I was excited when I found out that we’d be receiving a screener copy of the disc; you may remember that I actually had the honor of walking the Thor: The Dark World red carpet and watching the film at the premier, so I was chomping at the bit for the chance to see it again.

I also was excited that everyone was going to finally get to see the movie I’d been raving about for months. Not everyone had the opportunity to catch it in theaters, so nearly literally as soon as I carried it in the door everyone was asking when we were going to watch it. I was anxious for them to see it and share their thoughts (and I was anxious to see Tom Hiddleston again), so I popped it in the Blu-ray player and we all sat down to watch. Continue reading »

I can’t believe I’m typing this, but Bubbles turns 3-years-old this month. Seriously, I know the cliches about growing up so fast and how time flies – but it’s just so true. She’s more preschooler than toddler, and lets us know what a “big girl” she is on a regular basis.

Her birthday party will be this weekend, and when offered multiple choices on party themes she, unsurprisingly, chose Disney Planes. So this week I’ve been working on a few favors and supplies. I still need to finish up the party favors and treat bags, plus finalize my cake design. But I think I have all the table decorations and paper goods so not too much left to do.

Which is good, because Bubbles is super-excited about her party. She asks every morning if it’s her birthday yet, rattles off the guest list, and asks about her Disney Planes cake. She also has invited pretty much everyone at any store we’ve been to in the past two weeks. Continue reading »

By the number of times I’ve mentioned how much Bubbles loves Disney Planes, you can probably guess that we’re anxiously waiting on pins and needles for the Planes: Fire & Rescue movie. It flies into theaters on July 18th, 2014 and really, if we could just time-travel to get there and see the movie, I’m sure Bubbles would approve. It’s one the entire family can watch together, and you can bet we’ll be there on opening weekend.

It’s always an exciting day when a new Disney show or movie becomes available on DVD. Today’s it an offering from the Disney Junior channel, which of course makes the youngest member of our household quite excited. Especially since it features all of her classic Disney character friends.

We received a review copy of Mickey Mouse Clubhouse: Minnie-rella on DVD, which released today. Our family is no stranger to the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, so I was sure we’d love this new tale, and I wasn’t disappointed. Your little ones (and maybe some of you big ones) will love it.

In Mickey Mouse Clubhouse: Minnie-rella, Minnie’s friends have her hard at work taking care of chores in the Clubhouse. They’re trying to keep her distracted while they get her a surprise present, but the chores tire poor Minnie out. She falls asleep and dreams she is Minnie-rella. Continue reading »
