About Me
I am a native Coloradan, wife, mother, and a fanatic about Disney and the Denver Broncos. I also work full-time as a Senior Creative Services Specialist for the state's public pension plan. I am married to my high school sweetheart and we have a delightful and goofy daughter. I grew up dreaming about the opportunity to visit the Disneyland Resort and now I am fortunate enough to enjoy Disney Parks vacations with my own family at least once a year. I love cheeseburgers, all things Disney, making lists, and spontaneity - as long as it's planned several months in advance!
About My Family
My husband and I grew up just around the corner and down the street from each other, but didn't start dating until we were cast in a high school theatre production together. Several years later, we honeymooned at the Walt Disney World Resort and then took our daughter on her first Walt Disney World Resort vacation when she was 18-months-old. Since then, our daughter has proved to be a real thrill-seeker! During one of our Disneyland Resort vacations, she rode Space Mountain, Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, Radiator Springs Racers, and my favorite, Splash Mountain - which we rode three times in a row and is now my daughter's favorite attraction, as well. I love making memories with my family during these vacations and I'm so grateful that my husband and daughter share my passion for Disney.
About My Disney Experience
I first visited the Disneyland Resort in the 1980s, but didn't see a single thing as my mother was pregnant with me at the time. For the next 16 years, I begged to go to Disneyland and dreamt of the day when I could finally walk down Main Street, U.S.A. and through that beautiful castle. I finally got my chance in high school when my family planned a vacation to California that included a few days at the Disneyland Resort! I've since visited the Walt Disney World Resort, Disneyland Paris, and of course, took several trips back to where the magic all began. I typically start planning my next Disney Parks vacation while on the way home from a Disney Parks vacation. To me, planning and researching a Disney vacation is almost as fun as going...almost!
