We got to start 2022 by bringing the magic home! Thank you @toynktoys for the awesome ACTION & ADVENTURE box! As a 90’s kid myself, I gotta say I love the retro energy fueled name! 👊🏻💥 The items included: ✨ Ghostbusters ecto-1 air freshener ✨ Jurassic park coffee mug ✨ Bobafett trading pin ✨ Baby Yoda trading pin ✨ Millennium Falcon multi tool (move aside children, this ones for the big kids!) ✨ Black Widow trading pin ✨ Marvel comics blanket Some of my favorites are the pins — which I probably won’t trade 😂😂😂 But also the Millennium Falcon multi tool. It provides the perfect opportunity to say “that ain’t a multi tool *schwing* that’s a multi tool”. We also can’t forget how snuggly the blanket is! You can get these as a gift for your friends, but don’t tell them, because you’re probably going to change your mind, and keep them for yourself. 🤪

Dear Santa Mickey,

I only punched Long one time this year as opposed to the 9 from last year. On a scale of Pete to Minnie, I think scored at least a HOTDOG! Which puts me on the nice list. So for my wish this year can I has unlimited reservation dates to the Disney parks? Tenks! ❤️💚✨

Love,

Karen

P.S if possible, can you bring Bob Iger back? Okay, thank you!

Merry Christmas everyone! Hope you all have a wonderful one! 🎄❄️

Disneyland is the perfect place to be when you're a gingerbread cookie! You get the feels that warm you right up! A hot cup of cocoa also wouldn't hurt! ☕️🍫

I can’t believe we are marching into the last 4 days of Christmas! Somebody wind this soldier down! 💂🏻‍♀️🥁

Jokes aside, the day I wore this outfit I had a woman walk by me in the restroom and she sarcastically said, “Wow” to me. I responded with a smile — kill them with kindness, right? 😂 Aside from that, the rest of the day was filled with compliments. During parades and meet and greets, characters would point at me while making a drumming gesture. Someone even stopped me for a picture, but the best part was hearing parents say to their children, “Look it’s a toy soldier!” and seeing all the kids smile and wave as they walked by me. I guess what I’m trying to say is that there’s always going to be the few that are going to hate no matter what; however, the majority are going to love what you do if you’re passionate about it. Long and I are so thankful for everyone’s support and we hope that you always do what you love. We may be old, but we never want to grow old. 💕✨ Also, shout out to @sophiekraymer @mikeys.moments and @magicallyaimmee for being so excited and supportive of my outfit that day, we really were an army! 🤣

It’s 5 days until Christmas! There’s no time for Horace-ing around! 🐴🎄

We hope everyone is all done with their holiday errands. Seeing the parking lot at the mall reminded us how stressful this time of year can be. Don’t forget to stop and smell the poinsettias, and save your energy for what’s truly important, Disneyla— I mean family… yeahhh😏… family! 😂🥰💕

NO WAY HOME IS HERE!!!

Spider-me 🎵 Spider-me 🎵 look at me, I’m at Disneyland 🎵 Can I swing from a web? 🎵 No, I can’t, because I ate too much…LOOKOUT! Here comes Spider-me! 🕷️ 🕸️🎵

The verdict is in… I have lived through three live-action adaptions of spider-man. My age??? Nah, you don’t need to know that.

Like the rest of you all, I am so excited for No Way Home!!! Long and I just finished the PS4 games, and we plan on rewatching the Maguire, Garfield, and Holland spidey films before we arrive late to the party in theaters.

Is anyone watching the movie today, or do you plan on waiting and risk them spoily spoilers that smell spoiled???

Also, with the live-action adaption spanning three generations (oh no… imma gram gram 👵), who is your favorite live-action spider-man?

The holidays have me feeling a little Santa-mental! ☃️🎄

Toontown has got to be one of our favorite places to visit during the holidays. Seeing Mickey & his friends with all their Christmas decorations up! It just gets us all warm and giddy inside! Also, can’t believe it’s only 10 more days until Christmas! Hope everyone’s on the nice list this year!

There’s snow place like home ❄️

I love castle pics but being totally honest, we usually don’t attempt to get them because it’s always so crowded. Luckily, we spotted an opening as we were passing by and snapped some quick photos with Sleeping Beauty castle and her gorgeous snowy caps! 🏰❄️ On your next visit, go to the👈🏻sides👉🏻 of the castle! You avoid the crowds AND you still get a decent view! 😍🤩

 Is there anything better than getting magic mail — especially around Christmas time!? We were recently #gifted a Walt Life box from @waltlifeboxes, and it really did feel like Christmas came a little early this year! 😍 This is such a fun way to bring a little bit of magic home to you and a great gift to send to others! There are 4 different subscription boxes to choose from, which can be Disney or Star Wars themed! Use code HANDSDOWNDISNEY10 to get $10 off your own special box! 🤩

Had to take this picture by the fire station just in case, because these three are so 🔥🔥🔥 that they almost turned this gingerbread girl into a ginger-crisp 😂. Aside from that, Long and I had a blast with @sophiekraymer , @mikeys.moments , and having @magicallyaimee visiting from Hawaii was like an early Xmas gift 🎄🎁. Can’t wait to see you all again, so start booking them days! 😂

Hope your holiday season is as 𝓼𝔀𝓮𝓮𝓽 as can be! 🍭🍫🍪

We’ve been binge watching a bunch of Christmas movies lately — some we haven’t seen before. Let’s be real, most of them are pretty bad, but we enjoy poking fun along the way. However, we did find a few that we enjoyed, one of them being “My Dad’s Christmas Date,” and some added to our guilty pleasure list like, “Single All the Way.”

What are some of your favorite holiday movies?

It’s a world of laughter 🗺🎶

It’s time to sail on the merriest cruise that ever sailed around the world! A Small World Holiday has finally opened and we are in love with all the decorations both inside and outside the ride! Is this ride a must-do or is it one that should be enjoyed from afar? ⛵️✨
