Get ready for a magical episode as I welcome my friend Kris from Happily Ever Park Hoppers to the podcast! We’re both Disney moms—I have four kids, and she has two teenagers—so this trip was a rare opportunity for us to experience Disney without our families. We’re also both military wives, which gives us a unique perspective on Disney travel and how we make the most of military discounts and benefits.
Even though we share a love for Disney, our experiences growing up were different—Kris was raised going to Disneyland, while I grew up going to Walt Disney World. So, this trip was a perfect blend of our perspectives as we explored the parks together!
We stayed at SpringHill Suites, Dolphin Resort and Coronado Springs, giving us a chance to compare two very different resort experiences. Our trip was packed with excitement, from witnessing the Super Bowl Parade featuring MVP Jalen Hurts in Magic Kingdom to immersing ourselves in EPCOT’s Festival of the Arts, one of Disney’s most visually stunning events of the year. Of course, no trip would be complete without a ride on our all-time favorite attraction, Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind!
We also had an unforgettable dinner at Rose & Crown, securing a front-row view of Luminous: The Symphony of Us, EPCOT’s breathtaking nighttime spectacular. Throughout the trip, we explored Animal Kingdom, Hollywood Studios, and Magic Kingdom, hitting up shows and rides we often miss when traveling with our families.
But that’s not all—this episode includes exciting updates on our latest ventures! I share details about my 2026 Walt Disney World retreat, and Kris talks about her brand-new journey as a Disney travel agent.
