What's in our Disney Park bags!

Hey y'all it's all Four of the Sparks today. We went to Disney World in January and we want to show you what's in our Disney park bags!

 

So without further ado here is our first joint Blog post:

 

 

Bailey's Bag:

My bag is a Water Backpack that I got specifically for Disney.( Here is were you should be able to find it) (amazon.com than search Ridgeway by Kelty)

• A jacket - It sometimes gets cold in the morning and at night, so I'm bringing my Disney fleece
• A mini First-Aid kit - There's going to be 24 people so we want to make sure we're safe
• My Disney pins - I bought some off Ebay for really cheap so I can trade them
• A project To-do - For the long lines
• Sunglasses - because the sun is really bright

And now for the more obvious stuff

• Chap stick (Eos), Hand sanitizer (Bath and Body Works PocketBac in the Pink Chiffon scent), Hair ties, Bobby Pins, Brush, Deodorant, Travel size body mist and Lotion

 

Julia's Bag:

I have the same Ridgeway by Kelty backpack that Bailey has but I put some Disney buttons on it!

The bag is amazing! the smallest pocket can fit my Nokia Lumia 920 with a wallet case on with room to spare. It fits two liters of water, and has some pockets, within pockets!

Now, in my bag I have:

• My phone with my wallet case (it has a strap!) (the case, I mean)
• Hand sanitizer, Target $1 wipes, lotion, chap stick, yoyo, and safety pins
• Hair stuff
• Sunglasses
• A lot of Disney pins
• Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom cards, Wilderness Explorer handbook, etc.

Emma's Bag:

I bought a half-pint Jansport off of Amazon specifically with this trip in mind. It is smaller then I originally thought, but I think that it will work nicely. Its got a nice zippered front pocket and a smaller pocket on top of that which closes with Velcro and is great for things you need close at hand.

I'm a bit of a perfectionist and I love organizing, so my backpack has several small cosmetic cases to keep everything tidy. I seriously recommend doing this!

In the big pocket, I have my green flowered bag, my pin case, an extra lanyard, my water bottle, a glasses case, my sunglasses, and an Altoid tin filled with hair things, clips and bobby pins.

My green flowered bag is the one I use for my brush, a small eye shadow palate, mascara, make-up remover wipes, feminine products, lotion and my adorable Mickey & Minnie compact mirror

All of my first aid items are in my chevron pencil case, and its fairly basic. I used a $1 jewelry case to hold plenty of Acetaminophen and Ibuprofen. I also have a whole bunch of different types of band-aids, medicated chap stick, cough drops and an alcohol wipe.

In the smaller zippered pocket, I have my purple wristlet, cardstock, sharpies and my phone. The wristlet is for my Disney pins that I bought off of Ebay specifically for trading. The cardstock and sharpies are for autographs, because I am planning on making a scrap book of sorts, so my autographs will look extra nice.

The little Velcro pocket has just enough room for hand sanitizer and Eos chap stick. I use my chapstick pretty often, so its nice to just pull it out with moving anything else. I have my hand sanitizer there too, because if my hands are in need of hand sanitizer, I don't want to be touching everything else.

Kate's Bag:

I carry a Tinkerbelle messenger bag, which is just the right size for my everyday needs. Unlike my cousins, who are uber-prepared when it comes to Disney, I actually use my purse for a few things:

• My phone with a wallet case (Because no one likes to dig out their wallet when they're in a hurry!)
• Chap stick (which, honestly, ended up there by mistake. I did end up needing it, though.)
• Bobby pins and hairbands
• Whatever merchandise I bought that day.
• Aaaaaand whatever anyone without a purse asks me to carry (I'm lookin' at you Emma! Because for whatever reason you never brought your meticulously organized bag with you on rides!).

The main reason I carry a purse is because my phone falls out of my pocket fairly often, so I lose it fairly often.


So, everyone, this was supposed to get posted a month ago- before we  left- but, being that I'm (Kate) a super lazy procrastinator, I didn't finish my part until right now.

My apologies and I hope you liked this post!



When you go to Disney, what is the MOST essential item you bring in your bag?

My Frozen Alternate Universe Theory

Hey guys! It's Julia. I've decided to share an idea inspired by the Disney film Frozen that I came up with some time ago.
Wait for it . . .

What if Hans was just a figment of Anna's imagination!

It would make sense. As a result of feeling abandoned and lonely for years, Anna involuntarily imagined a friend. He was quirky and cute, he knew what it was like to feel invisible, and he was always there when Anna was feeling blue. He was perfect. But maybe too perfect.

She started getting confused between her imagination and reality. He proposed to her! And she accepted.

When Anna approaches Elsa about the marriage, Elsa realizes that Anna will not believe that Hans is, in fact, not real. she decides to take a different approach; just telling her she can't marry a man she just met. As a result, Elsa reveals her powers, starting off this whole adventure.

As she is on her journey, Anna meets Kristoff and inevitably falls in love with him. Only one problem, Hans!

Although they both know they love the other, Kristoff believes that Hans is real so to save Anna, he brings her back to Hans.

In order to be with Kristoff, Anna, or Anna's mind, has to get rid of Hans. So she comes up with this whole thing where he doesn't love her, but was, indeed, using her.

To add to everything, Anna thinks that Hans is going to kill Elsa. So she "sacrifices" herself for Elsa. Even though Hans was just her imagination so Elsa technically wasn't in real danger, Anna thought she was so the act of true love still sort of counts.

In the end she made up his punishment. She punched him and sent him home to his twelve brothers and let them take care of him.

And Anna & Kristoff (and Elsa) lived happily ever after

The End

Now before you go judging me, I know I can't explain everything, I just thought that in an alternate Frozen universe, that would be really cool.

See ya real soon!

 

Reasons why I love Disney:)

Hi guys this is Bailey this past month has been very crazy first off my mom had Evan and my Aunt  Becky(Julia and Kate's mom) and Papa Harry(My mom's dad) came to see Evan. It was so crazy I almost forgot about my blog post.

 I've decided to write my blog post on Disney. There's only a couple more months left till I go and I just couldn't wait any longer to write about Disney so here is reasons why I'm obsessed with Disney.

1. It's magical
 Since I was a little girl I've always loved going to Disney. I'm a complete Disnerd. I have definitely learned that all magic comes with a price.

2. The princesses
I've always loved Belle I don't know why because I'm nothing like her.
Ever since I was a little girl I've liked her!

3.Spending time with Family
Whenever my family go's almost every time we go with Julia and Kate!
When we don't go with Julia and Kate I'm still spending time with my siblings.

4.The rides
My favorite rides to go on at Disney are The Mad Tea Party, Thunder Mountain Railroad and Tomorrow Land Speedway(or as I like to call it autotopia).Julia is trying to get me to ride Tower of Tower when we go in January, I think I might just go on it.:)




5.Clothes
 I have 11 Disney shirts and love them all, When we go in January I'll be able to wear one everyday were in the park and have one left over. I also have a set of pajamas.

                      
                    


                                See you next month for my blog post until then see you later.

                                       Do you have any favorite things about Disney
                                                           Comment Down Below.

Meet Emma

Meet Emma

Hi guys, Emma here! This last past month of mine has been really exciting! Even though we have been living here for almost a year, I finally got my first steady babysitting job here! Also, the high school group at my youth group has gotten quite a bit bigger, so that's exciting.

I’ve also been crocheting a decent amount, and decided to show you guys the Pinkie Pie that I made for my brother.

 

Isn't she adorable?

I realized that our profile doesn’t really tell much about each of us individually. So I decided that for this week’s blog post, I’m going to tell you a little bit more about myself and my interests.

 

Well, first of all, I’m 16 and have light brown hair and green eyes with terrible eye sight. I’ve got ridiculously big feet and am pretty tall and lanky, but that doesn’t stop me from wearing heels! I’m also a Junior and I am homeschooled.


I’m the oldest of almost 6 and I’m an army brat. My dad joined the Army when I was 7, and I have so far lived in Illinois, North Carolina, Korea, California, South Carolina, Texas and now Colorado. Don’t ask me where my favorite place has been so far, because I’ll talk for about 20 minutes about the pros and cons of each place. But I really want to move back to Texas. One of my best friends lives there now, and Texas is just an awesome state!

 
Although I’m not technically, I like to think of myself as southern. I could live off of only sweet tea and fried chicken, and I’d do so in my cowboy boots.

 I don’t watch too much TV, but my favorite shows are Doctor Who, Phineas and Ferb, My Little Pony, and the Andy Griffith show.  I’ve re-watched Tuck Everlasting, Pirates of the Caribbean and National Treasures more than I care to admit. I also make it to the midnight premiere of as many Marvel movies as I possibly can.  I also stop what I’m doing to watch whatever Disney movie my little siblings decided on. Although I will admit that every once in a while I will put on Tangled and watch it by myself.

 

 I’m also a really big reader (as if you didn’t get that from my profile). My overall favorite book is Tuck Everlasting, which has been my favorite since I was 8. My happy place (besides Disney World) is sitting somewhere comfy while it’s raining or snowing with tea and a good book. I’ve got an ever expanding mini library in my room, which I am very proud of.  I also have an ever expanding list of books to read.

 Obviously, I’m a crafter too, hence my part in our Etsy shop. I can knit and loom knit, but my real passion is crocheting. I love making new things, and almost always make up my own pattern.

I put a Disney twist on pretty much everything I do. I love crocheting Disney dolls, or drinking tea out of one of my Disney mugs. We’ve got a Disney countdown stretching over one of our hallways with 140 little chains, because our next trip is in January!


Lastly, and most importantly, I’m a Christian. That’s one big thing that you probably already know about me because of my last post, but I’d just like to say it again.

 

I hope you enjoyed learning more about one of the Four Little Sparks, I’ll see you again next month!



Oh, and besides my Pinkie Pie picture and my selfie, the other two pictures were taken forever ago by one of my best friends Ashley. Here is a link to her Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/RedRainBootsPhotography. Check her out!

12 Things Disney Taught Me

This is Julia for my first Blog post!!

I am a Disnerd. If you met me, it would be completely obvious. Even in the profile you can tell! I’m constantly wearing Disney t-shirts and randomly quoting and bursting into song. So I’ve decided to round up my favorite quotes, lessons, and sayings from the awesome Disney movies we know and LOVE!

1.       “They need a hero, Bolt, someone who, no matter what the odds, will do what’s right. They need a hero to tell them that sometimes the impossible can become possible if you are AWESOME!”

-Rhino the hamster     -Bolt

There is almost nothing to add to this. Be a hero, do what’s right, be awesome.

2.       “Ladies don’t start fights, but they can finish them!”  

-Marie   -The Aristocats

Don’t underestimate what a lady can do. Just because they seem dainty and fragile doesn’t mean they can’t stand up for themselves or others.

3.       “The seaweed is always greener in somebody else’s lake”

-Sabastian   -The Little Mermaid

No matter how cool your stuff is, somebody always has something cooler.      

4.        “Go, live your dream”

-Hook-handed thug   -Tangled

Just go.

5.       “Scary monsters don’t have plaque!”

-Mike Wazowski   -Monsters Inc.

The most practical Disney lesson; if you want to be the best version of you, brush your teeth.

6.       “This much I know. If you are what you eat, then I only want to eat the good stuff”

-Remy    -Ratatouille

You tell ‘em Remy!

7.       "No matter how your heart is grieving, if you keep on believing, the dreams that you wish will come true."

-Cinderella

Keep on believing!

 

8.       “Ohana means family, and family means nobody gets left behind . . . or forgotten”

-Lilo   -Lilo and Stitch

Hold on to the family you’ve got.

 

 

9.   "You're mad. Bonkers. Off your head... but I'll tell you a secret... all of the best people are."

-The Mad Hatter    -Alice in Wonderland

  You are not too weird. If you’re weird I won’t judge you . . . I’m probably weirder.

10.   “Just keep swimming”

-Dory   -Finding Nemo

Life isn’t all that grim! Just keep on swimming.

11.   “I never look back, darling! It distracts from the now.”

-Edna    -The Incredibles

This quote is self-explanatory. But, who knew Edna was so wise!

12.   “Growing old is mandatory, growing up is optional.”

                           -Walt Disney
