This post is about what's been crack a lackin in my little corner of the world as of late.... Obvi, lol!!!

We cruised to the Bahamas on a Haunted Horror Cruise, it was wicked fun!! The entire bottom floor (where guests usually aren't allowed) was tramsformed into a HUGE walk through haunted house.. It was AMAZING!! No pics allowed in there but the entire ship was themed including the delicious delicacies!! Sooo fun!!!

We also took our first trip to "The Big Easy" .... We loved New Orleans!! We did everything from French Quarter to the Bayou & everything in between!!! Beignets, gumbo, jambalaya, etc!!! What's not to love????

If you watch American Horror Story Coven this should look familiar.

Home of Vampire Author Anne Rice

All Saints Day Parade to the cemetery.

Where we visited the crypt of the great Voodoo Queen Marie Laveau.

Street car FULL of party goers!! Soo cute!!

We also visited the infamous LaLaurie Mansion!!

We had so much fun!! Let me know about your recent pursuits!! TTYL❤️

Happy Fall Y'all

Fall is here and I must confess, I adore it!!! It's truly "Redhead" season!!! We were born for these colors!

 I've been slacking on my blog posts lately and I apologize. I'm not making excuses (that's my story anyway, lol!) but we have been super busy with our Halloween and Fall pursuits lately & I just haven't gotten to the blog... So, I'm sorry, and without further adieu our latest adventures!!

We started our Halloween celebration with our annual trip to Mickeys Not so Scary!!

 

Our decorated suite at Port Orleans

(ok, my honey & I might have cut out sometime alone on our weekend getaway for the Food and Wine Festival at Epcot) but the rest of the getaway was all Trick or Treating, Fireworks, parades, and of course no Halloween kickoff is complete without .. Universals HALLOWEEN HORROR NIGHTS!! It was awesome especially the Michael Myers "Halloween" house!!

A few days later we hopped a flight to LA to continue the party west coast style!!

Shopping natch!!

Our view of Hollywood from Hilton Universal.

We checked in after lunching & shopping in Burbank. Took a little rest, and took on 

Halloween Horror Nights Hollywood!! It was AMAZING!!! Next we were headed to the Madonna Inn (WOW!!) but first a Beverly Hills Sprinkles stop!!

Then we headed to Little Tokyo for beauty shopping!!! (heaven!! Pure bliss!) 

so then we finally headed up the coast to San Luis Obispo, but on the way we just had to have dinner at a true Ca landmark Pea Soup Andersens

Such yummy fun!!

So when we finally got to Madonna Inn we were very very happy to check into the "old mill room" (think its a small world complete with water wheel) it was magical!!

For any of my "pink" friends OMG!! This place is bathed in pink!!! And the pink champagne cake was DIVINE!!

See told ya!! Pink heaven!! :0)

Then finally onto Disneyland!! We checked into Disneys Grand Californian and took on Disneyland and California Adventure... We had a blast!! 

Mickeys Halloween Party with a West coast swing!!

Which witch is witch?

Doing what we do best... Just being  "Goofy" Hope you're having a Happy Fall Too Y'all!! TTYL ❤️

Bon Voyage!!

Whew!!! Summer seems to be flying right by!! We celebrated our wedding anniversary this year by cruising aboard the Royal Caribbean Enchantment of the Seas. Now if you know us or follow Le Blog lol!! Then you know we only sail with Disney and.... with our children, but this time it was just me and my honey❤️ It's the first time we have ever left for a Vaca without children in over 20 years!?!?!?! Wow!! Can that be right?? YEPPERS!! So we swore we wouldn't compare cruise lines but alas... It happens lol. It's not the Disney Dream but it isn't meant to be, for us it was perfection!! The beverage package that my honey surprised me with included all the Starbucks I could drink!!! Well say no more!!! Starbucks onboard!! YESSSSS!!! (Hint hint Disney lol!!) The shopping, shows, dinners, pools, etc. were wonderful!! But we had to check on the children's activities (you know in case we might want to come back.... ASAP please!!) alas they didn't even come close to Disney. So when we sail with the family we will remain Disney loyalists, but when it's just the two of us, the possibilities are endless!!! So without further adieu here is the pictorial of our Anniversary cruise.

Just arrived onboard

First things first I need my Skinny upside down caramel macchiato ( sorry for the bad pic)

Any dining room paying homage to Audrey Hepburn via My Fair Lady is a winner!!!

Cocktails!!

70's party!!!

YMCA complete with the Captain and The Village People!!!

Strolling on the gorgeous decks

Upon getting back to our private veranda stateroom we found it enchanted by "candle" light and champagne on ice waiting for us!! Swoon!!!!

Waking up to Atlantis never gets old!!

Shopping in Nassau

And Straw market

It was hot, hot, hot!! Lol!! So we opted to cool down at Sharkeys

The parade of flags representing all the different nations we currently had onboard, it was beautiful!!

Formal night called for my Calvin Klein black Gown for the My Fair Lady dining room.

Look at this floor!!! It was amazing!!!! Soo magical!!! And my Valentino Rockstuds aren't bad either!! Lol

More champs waiting for us!! The Valentino Rockstuds look amazing but even with dream inserts they still hurt!! Lol so off they came!

Sailing away from Nassau, sipping champs on our verandah by the moonlight with my love 

Waking up to a private island escape in the Bahamas!!!

If you like piña coladas .....

So much to do so little time!! Needless to say I disembarked with one last Starbucks in hand!!! So until next time!! TTYL❤️
