Heading to the Happiest Place on Earth? This full guide to Disneyland's Get Your Ears On Celebration is a must read!

This is IT!  Our favorite mice turned 90 this year, and the best part? The birthday celebrations will be continuing all year long!  Remember when we kicked off Mickey and Minnie's 90th Birthdays this summer on our Disney Cruise?  Well, the parties have continued from the Mickey's 90th television special to amazing brand collaborations.  And now??? Get Your Ears On is HERE at Disneyland, and there are SO many special activities to celebrate this milestone birthday!

Get Your Ears On: A Full Guide to Disneyland's Celebration

What is Get Your Ears On?

Mickey and Minnie are celebrating their 90th birthdays, and Disneyland is throwing a MASSIVE party.  From amazing food to new floats in Mickey's Soundsational Parade to a brand new projection show (Mickey's Mix Magic)……this is the biggest celebration of our favorite mice in Disneyland history.  It's a TON of fun, perfect for kids of all ages, and trust me…..you're about to find some new music to add to your Disney favorite's playlist.

Mickey's Mix Magic

Get Your Ears On: One of the best things to do at Disneyland? Mickey's Mix Magic is a don't miss!

This all new nightly show is a DO NOT MISS.  It's filled with music spun by DJ Mickey, amazing projections and stunning lights.  The newest Disney celebration song, “It's a Good Time” is GUARANTEED to be a cult favorite (trust me, download it NOW…it was written and produced especially for Disney Parks to celebrate the World's Biggest Mouse Party around the world).  The graphics are AMAZING and there are spectacular surprises at multiple points in the show.  Like all Disneyland projection shows, you can view this from Main Street, the It's a Small World facade, and Rivers of America (on the water screens once they are done with refurbishment).  There are fireworks to accompany the show on certain nights.  This ADORABLE show is a perfect park day ending, and I promise you'll find yourself dancing in the middle of Main Street.  We had the opportunity to watch Mickey's Mix Magic from both Main Street and the It's a Small World Facade.  It's a totally different experience in both places.  If you are at the park for two nights, I definitely suggest trying to see it from both locations.  The graphics are especially easy to see from the It's a Small World facade, but there is a magical surprise on Main Street (if you've got a Frozen fan in your family, I'd do Main Street).

Mickey’s Soundsational Parade

Heading to the Happiest Place on Earth? This full guide to Disneyland's Get Your Ears On Celebration is a must read!

If you'll be heading to the park on January 25th or after, this parade is a classic that you need to see.  While the parade is not new, there are TWO new floats and the opening? IS MAGICAL. It's inspired by classic Mickey pull toys, and is the perfect way to celebrate Mickey's 90th.  This parade is animated, fun and a perfect way to rest a little during a busy park day.   My biggest tip? I alway watch the parade from near the fire station on Main Street, I love it as a comfortable and easy spot to watch.  I got the chance to see the new floats, and they're STUNNING.  Be sure to find a spot early so that you don't miss the opening!

Get Your Ears on Food and Merchandise

Anyone else obsessed with Disneyland food and merchandise?  I saw the new offerings, and the Disneyland team truly knocked it out of the park (pun intended) this time.  From ears to dessert items to the BEST coffee mugs…….prepare your bank account, you're going to want everything.

Get Your Ears On Food:

If you're a Disney food junkie, then this Share your Ears cheeseburger is a do not miss!
One of the best food options at Disneyland's Get Your Ears On Celebration? This celebration cake from Plaza Inn!

From Disneyland to Disney California Adventure to the Disneyland Hotel to the Grand Californian…..Get Your Ears On food offerings are everywhere, and they are NOT to be missed.  We tried a TON of the food offerings, and saw even more of them.  My favorites:

Bengal Barbecue's Pad Thai Spring Roll (Adventureland): This delicious spring roll is filled with shrimp, rice noodles, veggies, and comes with a tasty hoisin dipping sauce. If you're a fan of thai flavoring, this is a DO NOT MISS.

Pluto’s Dog House Bacon Mac & Cheese Footlong Hotdog (Toontown): Looking for an epic full meal? The Bacon Mac & Cheese Footlong Hotdog will DEFINITELY meet your needs…..it's  topped with bacon mac and cheese and comes on an Italian roll….and looks INSANELY good.

Plaza Inn Celebration Cake (Main Street): We taste tested this cake and it's INSANELY good.  The perfect combo of lemon and raspberry, and the colors are stunning (it will be available starting February 19th).

Smokejumpers's Grill “Share Your Ears” Cheeseburger (Grizzly Peak): You've seen it all over the internet right? The “Share Your Ears” Cheeseburger looks EPIC.  It's an Angus cheeseburger with slider ears.  Now don't forget to snap a photo before you dig in!

Cozy Cone Motel Birthday Hat Macaron (Carsland): Did you see this one on my Instagram stories? Trust me, it's going to be the biggest hit of the Get Your Ears on food offerings.  It tastes like cotton candy, and guess what's inside it? CONFETTI SPRINKLES.  A legitimate birthday party in a cookie.

Disneyland Hotel Mickey’s Tea Party Celebration: This is number one my to do list with Lydia.  This adorable tea party is held at Steakhouse 55 from Jan. 19 until March 31.  There are two menus to choose from, and both have some ADORABLE dessert options.  Mickey’s Tea Party Celebration takes place on Saturdays and Sundays and every Thursday from 12:00 noon to 3:00pm.

Get Your Ears on Merchandise:

Obsessed with Disneyland merch? Get Your Ears On just kicked off and the merchandise is AMAZING! This Potion Purple backpack is the hottest item!
Looking for the best Mickey ears? These donut ears are a part of the Get Your Ears On celebration at Disneyland!

Disney fans are all about the merchandise right? From ears to backpacks to spirit jerseys there are a TON of fun options to help you celebrate Mickey and Minnie.  There are four fun themes for merchandise, and I promise you'll want items from each collection. The Park Food collection launched with those adorable donut ears we're all obsessed with and….spoiler alert…..more to come this year!  We've all seen that stunning Potion Purple color (could you DIE for the backpack or what?)…..and it's a HUGE part of Get Your Ears On.  From the Potion Purple backpack to the spirit jersey……it's taking over the parks.  Mickey Through the Years celebrates the evolution of our favorite mouse (and I love love love the coffee mug options that are a part of this collection).  And the Minnie Rock the Dots collection with those colorful polka dots? IS ADORABLE.

🚗 Road Trips……Which one are you?⠀ ⠀ Thi 🚗 Road Trips……Which one are you?⠀⠀This weekend we flew to Sacramento and then road tripped north to see my family up in the mountains.  It was so much fun to spend time together, and it reminded me….we are ALL one of these people on a toad trip.⠀⠀Bonus points to the VERY nice road trip vehicle we had…..the team at @MazdaUSA lent us a 2023 Mazda CX-50 Turbo Premium Plus and it was AMAZING (it even had a wireless charging dock for our phones). It made my snack stops even better (yup, we tried Dutch Bros for the first time and OMG we need them to expand to more Southern California locations ASAP).⠀⠀So, which are person are YOU on a road trip? ⠀⠀#familytravel #drivemazda
….and also why are we commenting negatively abou ….and also why are we commenting negatively about people’s appearances in 2023?Double also: if the worst thing people on the interwebs can say about me is that they don’t like my smile…..then I feel pretty good about what type of person I’ve chosen to be.
💕Because we all want our kids to soar………⠀⠀So fitting right? Elvis named this plane after his daughter.  And all I’ve been thinking about throughout our St Jude experience…..is how certain things truly bond all of us.  Certain things cross economic barriers and continent and language differences.  Parenthood is one of those.  It’s a universal experience.  And I think whether we are parents or role models or aunties or friends……we all know what it’s like to dream and hope on behalf of a child in your life.⠀⠀In 2012, when I was newly married and not yet a parent one of my students was diagnosed with cancer.  Without revealing details about her or her family, I think it’s important to recognize that economic barriers prevented what should have been an earlier diagnosis.  It was one of many times I was reminded during my time with the amazing humans in my classrooms that…..we do NOT all have the same access or experiences in life.  That student and her family were one of the miracle stories.  In fact, when she came back to class, she complained about missing soccer games at recess and fell right back in with the rest in a way that to this day brings joyful tears to my eyes. ⠀⠀I said this on my stories during my trip, but…..I didn’t realize until this experience that families at St Jude NEVER receive a bill.  Ever.  No matter what.  That this access gives families hope during their darkest days.⠀⠀I’m going to be teaming up with St. Jude to do a fun challenge that will hopefully inspire y’all to support them too.  Let’s just say that…..for this scared of heights, refuses to take my feet off the ground theme park girlie……I’m going to making the ultimate sacrifices.⠀⠀What rides would you want to see me go on in support of St Jude? (be kind, I’m literally TERRIFIED of any and all rides that have a height limit). You know they REALLY moved me if I’m even thinking of doing this! ⠀⠀@stjude #stjudeambassador
💕Double tap if you know what the Peabody is fam 💕Double tap if you know what the Peabody is famous for…..so many of you guessed it in stories last night!🦆The Peabody Hotel is famous for their duck parade.  And we got to see it as a part of Day 1 of the St Jude Content Creator Summit.  I’m in Memphis to learn all about how St Jude is doing life saving research to fight and cure childhood cancers.💕Real talk: I get to do a lot of fun things because of this little app but projects like this? Are an absolute honor.  Did you know that patients at St Jude NEVER RECEIVE A BILL? What a gift to families in crisis. I’m so happy to share this next couple of days here in Memphis with y’all and to support such an important organization.🦆Now, swipe to see the ducks. @stjude #stjudeambassador
She IS Ariel. We saw it. It’s a gift. This s She IS Ariel. We saw it.  It’s a gift.  This stunning movie shows a princess who is absolutely……royal.  Graceful.  Brave and……the perfect mermaid. Years ago, I was sitting in the theater during the live action Lion King premiere just days after the Little Mermaid casting was announced.  And in walked Halle Bailey.  This young girl and all I could think was……how much weight of the world was on her shoulders.  The room paused.  And people everywhere stood.  They applauded her and smiled and I thought…..she really is a princess. Halle, you are the epitome of royalty.  Thank you for sharing your shine with the world.I would love to encourage you to follow these amazing creators who have been shining themselves and sharing a ton of special Little Mermaid experiences:@jenniferborget @erikaenchanted@davidvaughn@_the_adventurous_rjay@colormemagic@melizzablackLydia’s, Robbie’s and my full review of the film will be on the blog Monday morning.How excited are you for the film? Who is your favorite Little Mermaid character? #littlemermaid #colormemermaid #ariel
