This is a big birthday for me. I almost decided to just forgo my birthday. Instead, I decided to embrace it, celebrate, and to make it exciting for everyone by doing a "My Favorite Things" giveaway. [I'm stealing this idea from my friend Lauryn (see her website here).]

Why am I doing this you ask? Spring Break is right in the middle of the giveaway, and summer is coming! All of the items on this list are geared to you and your friends having epic experiences, making memories (and looking great while doing it), and reliving those moments.

My Favorite Things

I'll release another item each day, so check back often. Scroll through to see the list.

$25 Disney Gift Card!

Meghann Martinez of Silver Screen Travel helps people check off those bucket list items they never thought were possible through travel. She works with all kinds of people and budgets. The two big things she always makes sure people know is:

1) Using an agent does not charge you more or a fee. Most hotels, entertainment places, parks, etc pay the same commission so whoever you choose will pay her (not you!!)

2) Payment plans are available in a lot of cases. (Which is super nice because that might not be available if you plan and book it all yourself!)

Meghann is giving away an awesome $25 Disney Gift Card!
