Almost Wordless Wednesday – Where in the World?

This week’s Wordless Wednesday theme is Your Calendar Shot and when I first saw the suggestion from Deb, I wasn’t totally sure what I was going to post. What ONE picture would I choose as the cover of our 2012 calendar? That was going to be a tough one because we have too many favorites from this year! But then, I came across this picture taken in April on our “parent’s week away” Disney cruise and thought it would be a perfect way to start a 2012 calendar since we’re getting closer to our Disney cruise to Alaska this June.

So, can anyone guess where this was taken? I really wonder if Disney contracts with this particular port so that they can anchor in this exact spot so the ship is PERFECTLY framed by the rocks on either side 🙂

I’ll update the post later in the day with the answer!

UPDATE: And, the answer to Where In The World is…Lover’s Beach in Cabo San Lucas. The rock formations on this beach are pretty impressive to begin with, but when we saw the Disney Wonder framed perfectly between the two, we thought it was a perfect picture to remind us of our time there! 🙂

Our Very Merry Disney Christmas Weekend

Whew! We survived another Christmas season, with only a few tears here and there 🙂 Thinking back over the weekend, I realized that it really was a very Merry DISNEY Christmas for us this year, even though we were nowhere near the parks. Here’s a couple highlights from the weekend.

Colorado Princess turned 3 on Christmas Eve and we HAD to celebrate with a Princess cake. Thanks to Sara’s Sweets for another awesome birthday cake! And of course, a birthday isn’t complete without a new princess dress (thanks Colorado Sister!)

Christmas Eve night, we switched gears from birthday to Christmas, and opened our traditional Christmas Eve pajamas. The kids got a princess nightgown and Mickey robe, respectively.

I was apparently too tired on Christmas morning to get any decent pictures, but the kids woke up to some exciting Santa gifts – princess dolls for Colorado Princess and Harry Potter legos for Colorado Boy.

Later in the day, we had our families over for Christmas lunch and I was able to use my Mickey Twas The Night Before Christmas dishes and linens (yes, I know, I should use them on Christmas Eve…oh well!).

 It was great spending time with the family, eating great food, laughing and opening presents. By the end of the day, I was exhausted, but I must say – my family sure does know me well! They got me some really cool Disney stuff this year (including my own personalized bag). Now I just have to figure out where to put it all! 🙂

I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas with your friends and family! Did any of you get a special Disney gift this year?
