Last week, I shared a picture of that rare and fleeting moment known as “sibling love”, so for this week’s blog hop theme of “Love is in the air”, I thought I’d turn the camera on myself (very rare since I’m usually behind the camera) and share a couple of pics of me and the love of my life – Colorado Dad (I almost typed Mickey Mouse there. Hehehehe!)

This first pic is from the “Wayback Machine” known as 1998 and is from our first Disney trip together as husband and wife. This was our honeymoon cruise on the Disney Magic, circa Sept. 1998.

And by contrast, here we are again, almost 13 years later. Less hair, more gray and with a couple additions to our family, but still going strong after all these years

This week’s Babes in Disneyland Blog Hop theme is “Disney Bucket List” which is something that’s almost always on my mind! It seems like no matter how many visits I take to Disney and how many great adventures we have, I keep coming up with more things to add to the list so who knows if I will EVER complete it

Here’s what’s on my list currently:

Have a meal at Club 33 in Disneyland: This one has been on my bucket list for a long time. I’ve heard the food is really good, and it’s always cool to be able to have an “adult” beverage in the middle of Disneyland, but mostly it’s the mystery and exclusiveness that intrigues me. I really want to see what’s hidden behind that door (with my own eyes!) The good news is that I MIGHT be able to cross this off my list in March if my husband is able to pull a few strings.

Visit the non-US parks: I’d really like to visit Tokyo DisneySea since it seems like such a different experience from the parks here in the States, but if an opportunity comes up to visit ANY of the other parks, I’ll definitely take it.

Take an Adventures By Disney tour: The tour I want to take changes from week to week as I look at the site and discover new places they’re going, but regardless of the location, this is definitely an experience I’m looking forward to sometime down the road. Most of the tours have a minimum age requirement of 5 or 6, so it will be a few years until we can go on one of these trips as a family, but maybe I can convince Colorado Dad to take me for HIS 40th birthday next year…LOL.

Spend Christmas at a Disney park: I know the parks are crazy busy and some people would just call me insane to want to do this, but to me there would be nothing better than to spend my favorite holiday at my very favorite place. I’m toying with this idea the year I turn 40, so who knows, maybe I’ll have it knocked off the list in the next few years.

Take a transatlantic cruise on a Disney ship: It doesn’t have to be a transatlantic cruise, just one of the longer 12 – 14-day cruises. But, now that Disney has announced they’re going back to Europe in 2013, maybe a transatlantic will be an option! Anything that will allow me to spend as much time as possible on a Disney ship.

So that’s my bucket list for today. What Disney experiences are on your bucket list?
