Expectations

-
If you've never been on a cruise before - do you have any idea what to expect?

When it was your first cruise - were you surprised by anything??
Or if you've been on more than 1 cruise line, how did they compare to each other?

I have mentioned before I was never interested in cruises before, and I was not new to the concept. I can remember my parents returning from a cruise to Alaska, and sitting in the living room with the luggage all around (not yet unpacked) and looking forward to the little gifts they brought me and my siblings!! (I remember those dolls that fit inside each other --- Nesting dolls, yes I had to look that up!)

but once we were all-in for our cruise I was constantly searching scouring Pinterest!

As I hope to share tips, tricks, and memories on this new blog, do you have any to share?
I'd love to read them!

'til next time,

Relay For Life

On a completely different topic - you likely might not know that I am deeply involved with Relay For Life - the #1 Fundraising Event for the American Cancer Society! Cancer has touched my life... quite a few times, but none as deep as when I lost my father on December 12, 2015. 45 short, yet incredibly long, months ago (as of yesterday). It hadn't even been too long since he was diagnosed - about 2 years give or take if I remember correctly (which is rarely the case). My dad did his first Relay For Life in NY - the year after he passed, I went to NY to attend the Relay at my very own high school. Afterward, I knew I wanted to be a part of something that is so much bigger than just me, or one event, so I found my local event and let me tell you they are some really amazing people! If you would like more info, you can see my Team Page - Cookie's Cancer Fighters (keeping my dad's original team name alive)!               (5/31/14)

Has it really been over 6 months since my last post?? You might have noticed the new name... Turns out there is a trademark on the name, and I was unaware. I have apologized and changed everything right away, but will need to figure out my next steps... what will the new name be? what is my direction? A lot of things have happened in the last few months. We had been house-hunting, in and out  of contract on a house, and listed our own house! July 25th, 2019 - we officially bought our NEW home and sold our OLD home on the same day! Slowly, but surely, we are settling in and enjoying the pool and shorter commute! 5 days after moving in, we left for a week in Colorado (*watch out for that post!), which had been planned for months. 5 days after returning, the new school year started, on my birthday!! We now have an 8th Grader and Kindergartener!!! Where has the time gone?! With all that being said - today is the day the applications for Disney Parks

Have you ever put so much on your plate that you don't know where to start?? Well, Hello! That is me! Some of you may already know me: I am married with 2 kids; a full-time job; Relay for Life Committee Event Leadership Co-Lead, active Team Captain, and Avid Fundraiser Planner; (can I use that as a title?!) blogger (very occasionally) at Healthy Higgins ; and now HERE ! (let's not forget all the dreams I am saving inside that pipe! - you know the one!) I started my Healthy Higgins blog on Aug 29, 2012 (yikes!) and I was starting a healthy lifestyle journey (which I am still walking - slowly). Once I had a baby in 2014, who's not so much a baby anymore, I just lost track and stopped blogging practically altogether (I have a number of drafts sitting unfinished!). However, after discovering the Disney Cruise Line in the summer of 2017, I became hooked ... more on that later, but it's what brings me here today! I want to find a way to share everything I know
