The real purpose of my trip to Florida was for the Media & VIP Preview of the new Diagon Alley section of Universal Orlando Resort, which opens on July 8th.  We had lots of activities throughout the week including a VIP tour of the parks (meaning we got to skip all the lines and had a fun tour guide) and got to try out some of the new restaurants that will be opening at CityWalk. We even got to take a picture with Optimus Prime and got HUGE free donuts from the Springfield/Simpsons section of the park (which I brought home and shared with my family to avoid being a total fatty)


Press week also included some press conferences and Q&A sessions with some of the cast.  Below are some pictures of James Phelps, Evanna Lynch, Matt Lewis and Oliver Phelps.

P.S. Today is Matt Lewis' 25th birthday, yayyyy!! :)

I wore this the day we went to go see Jimmy Fallon tape his Monday show! Then we headed to Margaritaville at Universal's CityWalk for dinner. Basically a nice, laid back day! Sadly these sunglasses did not make it home. I somehow lost them one of the nights of the trip. They were in my camera bag and must have fallen out when I was rushing to put stuff away...so depressing! Maybe my Marshalls will have another pair.

Yesterday I shared the outfit I wore to Disney, today let's take a look at some of my photos from the visit! Although the last 2 photos are from our second visit to Disney last Friday (that outfit will be posted soon.)

Last week I was on vacation in Florida for Universal's Diagon Alley Media &VIP Preview (the new Harry Potter park expansion.) My friend and I arrived on Saturday and stayed with one of her friends from Saturday night - Tuesday morning, which was when the Potter events started.

Sunday we headed to Disney with another one of her friends and had a marvelous day!  It did rain in the evening but it didn't ruin our fun.  We went on so many rides, including the new Seven Dwarves one, which I really enjoyed!  It was SUPER hot though, we were melting!

A couple weekends ago, Lydia and I headed to the beach for our outfit pictures, it was a great day - but a little windy. Luckily it wasn't the perfect beach day so it wasn't super crowded, just the way I like it! I haven't worn this dress in quite some time, which is a shame because it's one of my favorites. I've had it for at least 7 years I would think...  My new bomber from Marshalls was the perfect coverup for when the temperature dipped. Once again, I had too many pictures I liked! I deleted about 60 and still had 50 to go through. So we're lucky I got down to 11 favorites, ha ha.
