Disney On Ice Princesses and Heroes At Prudential Center Through Monday January 19th Looking for something fun to do during this crazy rainy, icy weekend. Disney On Ice is at Prudential Center, Newark has shows today(Sunday) and tomorrow(Monday). You can grab the kids and have some Princess and Heroes fun. We had a blast on opening night of the show. Personally, it was one of my favorites since Em is so big into Disney Princesses. Of course she dressed the part, which was a first for her. We usually just go in regular clothes (Disney themed of course), but this time she opted for the her new Frozen Elsa gown that Santa recently delivered. We took full advantage of the moment and headed for the photo opp. So pleasantly surprised that the pic including the Frozen frame was $20 flat. That’s okay to have the memory captured forever. What a great time we had waving to all of our Disney friends and singing along to all of our favorite Disney tunes. At Prudential Center in Newark, NJ through January 19th! PS: The last scene is awesome for all of your Frozen fans!

Disney Into The Woods NYC Press Junket. #IntoTheWoods

Disney’s Into The Woods
Celebs In NYC
 There is pretty much nothing much more exciting than being invited to a Disney event. So, when my invite arrived for the NYC Into the Woods Press Junket I was beyond thrilled. Years ago I was lucky enough to go on a date with my now hubby of 25 years to see Bernadette Peters on Broadway starring in Into The Woods. I have pretty much been in love with the story since then and was chomping at the bit to see how Disney would magic up the story.

Our intimate group of Disney writers were invited to a Press Conference with many of the top names from the show. Three of my all time favorites were there: Meryl Streep, Tracey Ullman and Christine Baranski. There words danced like music as they each explained the glory of the the movie. Meryl Streep almost brought  me to tears as she spoke about the witch’s character as it relates to life and parenting and children growing up and moving away. It was bordering on heartbreaking to think about. Tracey Ullman was hilarious as ever while explaining her role as Jack’s mother and her death scene during the movie. Of course the glamorous Christine Baranski lived up with relating her character of Cinderella’s stepmother saying how all mothers want to see their children set. They want the best for both their sons and daughters and are willing to do whatever they can to help them along the way.

One of my favorite quotes of the day came from Emily Blunt where she stated that, “Wishes Come True-Not Free”. Her character of the baker’s wife is conflicted throughout the film. For her it all comes too late. She also let us know that her character’s biggest fear, like many of us is to be left alone to carry on. She takes us there though, Moments in the woods.

James Cordon, the baker, shared the joy of working with his  fellow actors saying, “They are a company where no one steals the limelight from anyone else”. Wow, what an amazing atmosphere to work in. No wonder the movie was so awesome! That love an respect for one another shines through both the movie and the interviews! Chris Pine, Cinderella’s prince admitted to never hearing about Into the Woods before. Well, that worked for him. My favorite movie line had to be, “I was raised to be Charming, not sincere”. How can that not make you smile!? He also let us know he enjoyed playing a two dimensional character.

As for Rob Marshall, director, he was thrilled to have an entire cast that had a background in theater.
His love of the movie was how everyone moved forward together, forming and reforming. The cast mimicked the film as they moved forward together- growing together and becoming one. Disney’s Into The Woods Press Conference was filled with laughs. You could feel the genuine love the cast had for one another.

#DisneySide Home Celebration Fun! @DisneyParks

What’s Your DisneySide?
#DisneSide Home Celebration
By now every Disney fan has probably heard the words Disney Side pass by their ears. Every year Disney chooses a theme, this year it’s What’s your “Disney Side”? Recently our family was chosen by Mom Select and Disney Parks to host a Disney Side Home Celebration. From the moment we were chosen it has been a whirlwind of fun. An array of party supplies arrived at our door all packed up neat into a
brand new American Tourister carry on bag. In addition to this wonderful party perk we were lucky enough to also have an additional American Tourister bag to give away at the party.
Although our original party date was overtaken by snow, we were still able to set up another 
date in plenty of time. 
Our party was adorned with a magnitude of Disney Side fun. We played Disney Bingo, face painted, 
created Disney inspired hand drawn tees thanks to Hanes and feasted on Disney shaped snacks. 
Crunch Pak was kind enough to send along some Disney shaped snack packs for everyone to enjoy!
We also played Hidden Mickey- a game where our guests were given clues to look around and find the Hidden Mickeys placed throughout the party area! 
We were thrilled to have our house looking beautiful thanks to Teleflora who created original arrangements to match our Disney Princess themed area! Those fragrant roses and assorted flowers really helped all the little princesses get into the royal frame of mind. Speaking of royal, we were lucky enough to have two royal guests at our party, Cinderella’s Pumpkin and Ariel’s Treasure. They are Build A Bear’s newest creations from  Disney Palace Pets. Two of our lucky little princess guests left our home with the hugest smiles on their faces! Of course they were not the only guests smiling, there were smiles all around as people shared their favorite Disney vacation stories and Disney moments. It was a night of feasting, fun, family and friends where everyone was able to share their Disney Side!
What’s your Disney Side?
You can host your own Disney Side Home Celebration and join in on all the fun.
