After an incredible week of finally getting my Instagram account back, I felt the only appropriate movie to watch this week was The Incredibles. (Yes, you heard that right, I finally got it back.

Dinner & A Movie Night: A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving is over, and my favorite time of the year is officially here! But before Thanksgiving is too far gone, I wanted to share our A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving Movie Night.

Disney Dinner & A Movie Night: UP
If you have ever seen the beginning of the movie Up, and it didn’t make you cry, you’re not human. The song that plays during this emotional scene is “Married Life” and it has so much special meaning to me; that song was playing on Main Street USA in Disneyland when my husband proposed to…

Disney Dinner & A Movie Night: Moana
Today I am sharing all of the fun details of our Moana Movie Night (and “what can I say except you’re welcome”). When Moana came out in theaters, my husband and I rushed to see it and fell in love with the story and the music. We immediately bought the soundtrack, and it has been…

Disney Dinner & A Movie Night: Inside Out
I know that I usually have many cute pictures of my daughter for our movie nights, but full disclosure, the terrible twos are starting in our home, and she has been acting more like Disgust and less like Joy. So with emotions running high, I thought that Inside Out would be the perfect movie to…

Disney Dinner & A Movie Night: Beauty and the Beast
Beauty and the Beast has always been one of my favorite Disney movies, and I was so excited when we decided to watch it this week for our Disney Dinner & A Movie Night! Belle is smart, strong, and self-assured, and I knew my daughter would love her the way I do. Go ahead and…
