Special Announcement!
When my husband and I planned our rehearsal dinner, my mother-in-law requested the theme song from Beauty and the Beast. My husband objected saying, “Wait a minute, does that make me the Beast?” I had grown up with many Disney trips but that's the earliest moment that I remember Disney being a part of our lives together. Then in 2003, my mom suddenly passed away from brain cancer. We were so devastated from that first Christmas without her that we went to Walt Disney World. After that trip, we knew we were a Disney family! Since then, we've had countless trips including cruises through Disney Cruise Line. Then something extraordinary happened...
With the encouragement of a friend, I started my company in 2013. I know I’ve got a friend in her for sure. My love of all things Disney was my inspiration. To be honest I knew that I could combine my passion and business knowledge to planning great vacations for my guests. Little did I know how much the guests would teach me. This journey has turned me Inside Out and taught me a lot about service and humility. Through the years I’ve gained so many Incredibles friends through the comradery of Disney talk. At times I’ve felt like Alice in Wonderland, falling through the rabbit’s hole. One of those times was when I lost a friend to an accidental overdose. It was devastating to lose her as a friend, confidant and encourager. There were several nights where she would call and say, “Let’s talk Disney”. Now I affectionately refer to her as my Disney Muse.
Along the way, I’ve gotten Tangled up in your lives and for that I am thankful. I've realized that It's a Small World After all. Along the way, I learned that Disney has a special title for agencies that exemplify great service. I made that my goal to move Up and become part of this unique group of agencies known as Earmarked Agencies.
Today, I have the extreme pleasure to announce our agency as having achieved Earmarked status with Disney! Our agency is referred to by Disney as an Authorized Disney Vacation Planner. I couldn’t have made it to this landmark of an achievement without the help of countless guests, loved ones and friends. I’m especially thankful for two ladies that the Lord has placed in my life. Kristin Turner and Amy Prikazsky who have both been monumental in joining me in this adventure!
It has been a blessing serving all of you and we hope to continue for many years to come! Now get out there and explore this Big Blue World!
