#8 - Figment Merchandise

I am almost positive that I am gonna need to bring a extra suitcase just to cart home all the Figment stuff I plan on buying. LOL!  Say what you will about him, but I just LOVE Figment.  I have no idea why I love him so much.  Maybe because Figment merchandise is rare here in California or maybe because he is the only thing I can remember from the last time I went to WDW when I was 5.  I have no clue.  I just do.  I am definitely getting the Figment Pook-a-looz that is in the photo though!  Pook-a-looz and Figment.  2 of my favorite things!!  =)

I actually don't really know anything about this show!  I know it is fireworks and it is on water?  Am I close?  I have seen quite a few photos and they all look so spectacular that I am sure this show is awesome.  You can't really go wrong with fireworks right? =)

10 Days!

#10 - Rock N Rollercoaster

I am gonna guess, just from looking at this photo, that this ride is pretty bad-ass.  I LOVE this photo and the area around the coaster building is just awesome!  This is another ride that I have heard nothing but good things about.  I am super excited that it goes upside-down!  Oh and that I get to listen to Aerosmith at the same time! Double bonus =)

#11 - The Tree Of Life

The last of the WDW icons!  I know that I am gonna spend a ridiculous amount of time trying to photograph every inch of this tree.  I am probably gonna have to be dragged away from it.  Just sayin'.  Do any of you have a favorite part of the tree?  A part that I shouldn't miss photographing?  I would love to know!

#12 - Phineas and Ferb

I was so excited when I heard that these two are now out and about!  I love the show and I can't wait to meet them!  Not gonna lie though.  I am just a tad disappointed that I don't get to meet Agent P. LOL!  Any of my readers gotten the chance to meet them yet?

I LOVE Vinylmations.  I have about 100 right now.  I am not sure if there are any out right now that are exclusive to WDW, but you know I will be on the lookout!  I even have a couple that I am gonna take with me to trade while I am there.  Which reminds me that I need to look up the locations of the places to trade! Yay!

This beautiful bus is gonna be the first glimpse of my Disney vacation!  Yes there is a plane ride, but once I see the DME I will officially be on my way to WDW!  I know I am gonna be super excited so I need to remember to get photos of the bus in-between my screaming and jumping up and down like a 5 year old.

This restaurant looks seriously awesome. I love the decor and the whole look.  Not to mention that there is air conditioning!  yay!  I have taken a look at the menu and the food looks pretty dang good too!  Has anyone eaten here before?  I would love some recommendations on what you ate and if you liked it or not!

I am really looking forward to this ride!  I know that may sound silly but it is as close as I am gonna get to riding the People Mover again. LOL.  Which was my favorite ride at Disneyland until they made the HUGE mistake of removing it =(  I have no idea what Tomorrowland Transit Authority consists of but I know I am probably gonna love it!

I LOVE buffets. No doubt about it. Lol.  I am excited to eat at Boma for 2 reasons. 1) I have heard nothing but great things about the food. And 2) I get to check out the Animal Kingdom Lodge!  Should be fun times all around!

Just stopping by to show you all the layouts I made last month!  I think I am getting a little faster at designing now so I am hoping to get some more layouts done each month!

I know what you are thinking.  Umm, Tanya.... you have been on both those rides a billion times.  Yes, I know I have.  BUT, not with the seating they have at WDW.  Side by side on Splash Mountain?!  Single seating on Space Mountain?!  It is craziness I tell ya!  Do the rides feel any different?  Any readers who have been on both and can compare for me? =)

*NEW* September Mix-A-Kit and Basic Black Alpha!

Happy Friday everyone!  Can you believe we are already into September?!  Where in the heck did summer go?!  This month is gonna be a busy one for me so let's kick it off with some new products!  Yay!

In case you didn't see it, my September Mix-A-Kit items hit the store yesterday.  I had so much fun making this stuff that I ended up making FIVE products!  I just couldn't stop!  I definitely had Disney on the brain while designing this so that I could scrap my own photos from the Animation Academy.  Which of course I haven't done yet. lol.  So I present to you....

Sketch Me - The Elements

Sketch Me - Sketchy Stuff

Sketch Me - Academy Alpha

Sketch Me - The Patterns

Sketch Me - The Solids

Fun right?!  My creative team made some seriously awesome stuff with all the Sketch Me items too:

So not only do I have all that goodness in the shop this week but today I am also releasing a fun stash builder!  This alpha is simple, clean and can be used on almost every layout!

My Basics: Black Alpha

My creative team went crazy with this alpha!  I swear, they blow me away every week!

Thanks for looking and happy scrapping!!

I love me some wild animals and this is probably as close as I am ever gonna get to a actual African Safari.  There is nothing like a open air vehicle to get some awesome shots of the animals too!  I can't wait!

#25 - Sci-Fi Dine-In

Image by matthewcgallagher

I have watched countless WDW travel planning videos in my almost 30 years and Sci-Fi Dine-In has always been the one restaurant that I thought looked the coolest.  Eating in a car while watching a movie screen?!  What isn't to love!  I made sure to tell Heather that I really wanted to eat here and luckily she has never eaten here either so we get to experience it for the first time together!  Now let's hope that the food is good!  =)
