I totally loved that club! My husband and I (and sometimes the kids if it was early in the evening!) went at least once every time we visited Walt Disney World. We used to buy premium annual passes just so we could go to the Club. Those of you who have been there how special it was – a true Disney experience. The Adventurer’s Club was totally original entertainment which featured fantastic theming, an amazing cast and just plain old fashion FUN! I laughed until tears flowed many times during the show. Never the same show twice, plus specialty drinks like the Kungaloosh and The Adventurer’s Club was the perfect night out. Do you miss The Adventurer’s Club?

Below is a video I found on YouTube of the Colonel who brings back some great memories.

Still figuring out how to integrate Flickr into WordPress so this is kind of a test!  If anyone out there has a plugin they love, sure would like to know about it!  In the meantime, enjoy! :)

Update: LOVE Slickr Flickr! :) (and thanks to my twitter friend @Jason_Yu for pointing me in the right direction!)

We are going the first weekend – can’t wait to check out the new Star Tours ride!  Star Wars Weekends have become a tradition for my older son & me – we’ve gone to one for many years now.  I’m excited he still wants to go now with me that he’s in college.  This will be our 4 year old son’s first Star Wars Weekend.  If we have brainwashed him properly, he’s going to have a blast.  :)   Enjoy the video!

Disney Invitations – not just for kids! :) http://goofyformickey.com/blog1/2010/12/18/disney-invitations-not-just-for-kids/ http://goofyformickey.com/blog1/2010/12/18/disney-invitations-not-just-for-kids/#comments Sat, 18 Dec 2010 17:57:31 +0000 madforthemouse http://goofyformickey.com/blog1/?p=103 Continue reading ]]> Minnie Mouse Hula Invitations

One of my all time favorite invitations – can you tell the the Polynesian is my favorite resort?

Of course, all my Disney friends will know this, but my non-Disney friends assume all we do are invitations for kids’ parties!  We do more Disney Princess Invitations or Mickey & Minnie Invitations for engagement party invitations, bachelor/bachelorette party invitations, save the dates and wedding invitations than you can imagine!  All with Disney style!  I picture the recipients as happy, fun couples who love Disney! :)

But my favorite invitations come as very small orders.  They are a single invitation to someone special for a trip to the most magical place on earth!  :)

We recently did a Cinderella invitation for a little girl from Santa for a trip to Cinderella’s castle, which included dinner reservations at the Castle and a visit to the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique. We have done quite a few trip to Disney invitations – what a great way to surprise a child with a trip to Disney!  An invitation under the tree can be magical! :)   (and we’ve even done them for significant others who are doing the surprising!)

We recently did a set of invitations for each day of a family’s trip – made out to their daughter, for whatever reservation they had for the day.  These are such fun projects to work on!  We themed the invitations to match the reservations – like Lilo and Stitch invitations for breakfast at Ohana’s, Disney Princess Invitations for dinner at Cinderella’s Castle and Akershus Royal Banquet Hall in Norway, Mickey Mouse invitations for breakfast at Chef Mickey’s.  The invitations were addressed to the children or family and are “from” the characters.   The invitations were then slipped  under the door each night so the children found them in the morning.  It sure added a special touch to an already magical vacation!
