She’s met Toothless. She’s met Hiccup. But meeting them together? Another core memory at Epic Universe unlocked!

And yes… the Light Fury outfit was absolutely required.

One of our favorite family traditions is watching the July 3rd fireworks from Top of the World Lounge at Bay Lake Tower with my Disney Fairy God Parents (the perfect name for O.Ro’s bonus grandparents thanks to @wewearmatchingshirts )

They handed out Mickey glasses before the show, and every point of light turns into tiny Mickeys. It’s one of those little Disney details that still makes everyone smile. We save them and use them again at Christmas!

Who doesn’t love Disney’s 360 Holiday fireworks?

We, my friends, have DRAGONS!

What better way to celebrate turning EIGHT than with a little birthday magic straight out of Berk?!

We surprised my nephew with a How to Train Your Dragon room makeover at Universal Stella Nova Resort, and I am absolutely BLOWN AWAY by what @ringitonevents created!

Every single detail was beautiful, but that Happy Birthday banner with Terra Luna in the background?! I genuinely cannot get over it.

They took an already special birthday trip to Epic Universe and made it something truly unforgettable. I couldn’t have dreamed up a more perfect surprise.

And just WAIT until you see the kids’ reactions! I’ll be sharing their big reveal soon!

If you’re planning a birthday or special celebration at an Orlando hotel or in the Orlando area you NEED to see what @ringitonevents can do!

Vikings might be known for their raids, but I don’t think Hiccup was expecting this one. Apparently Astrid needs to start locking her closet.

And Toothless? Just out here using those big eyes to get whatever he wants. Honestly, can’t blame him.

I swear, the character interactions in Berk just keep getting better!

Halloween fun without the scares? SeaWorld Spooktacular is such a fun option for families! 🎃

Between the 12 trick-or-treat stops, character interactions, Halloween parades, dance parties, smoky bubbles, and meeting a real-life mermaid, the girls had the BEST time!

And before anyone asks… YES, I am fully aware that I’m dressed as Princess Peach at SeaWorld and not Epic Universe. 😂

But YOU try telling a little girl dressed as Rosalina that Mommy and Daddy aren’t going to dress as Peach and Mario so they can all be on the same team.

And in pure Marks Family fashion, of course we had the costumes on hand.

We’re also not going to discuss the fact that she decided to take her costume off approximately 20 minutes into our day, leaving Andy and me dressed for the wrong theme park ALL BY OURSELVES. 💀

Anyway, back to Spooktacular…

🎃 Included with regular SeaWorld admission!

🍬 12 trick-or-treat stations (reusable treat bag purchase required)

🧛 Hotel Transylvania character meet-and-greets, dance party, and an optional character breakfast!

🧜‍♀️ Mermaids, Halloween parades, spooky bubbles, and more!

📅 Select dates through November 1, 2026!

Thank you @seaworldorlando for having us out for such a fun Halloween day! 💜

SAVE this for your Orlando Halloween plans, and follow along for more theme park adventures! ✨

For a guy who uses antlers in all of his decorating, I expected something a little more impressive. Gaston’s trophies are looking a little underwhelming. 😂

Anyone else ever notice this at Gaston’s Tavern?

Bad day? Disney. Stressed out? Disney. Feeling low? Disney! I will not be taking questions at this time.

Hamilton at Dr. Phillips Center was such a fun way to kick off this Broadway in Orlando season, and the little show-specific details, like the themed drinks, made the night even better!

The Rebel Spirit tasted like autumn in a glass, and the King’s Garden was light, crisp and botanical, basically everything I want from a gin cocktail. And Andy and I apparently cannot walk into Dr. Phillips Center without getting those little charcuterie boxes. We get them every. single. time.

Then you look at everything still coming to the Walt Disney Theater this season and there is SO much to be excited about.

Thank you @drphillipsctr and @adventhealthcfl for having us out for Hamilton. We loved getting to experience opening night and cannot wait to see what else this Broadway season brings.

Listen, the cookie started it.

Got this little guy from @dolce.spot at the Foolish Mortals @creativetogethermarket , and while he put up a good fight, he never stood a chance.

Seriously though, if you haven’t tried Dolce Spot’s cookies yet you’re missing out. They’re SO good!
