My email congratulating me on being selected! |
Back in December, I found out about the Disney Side @Home Celebration opportunity through my Disney groups on Facebook and Twitter. I quickly read over some brief descriptions of the program and decided it sounded right up my alley. I applied to be selected as a host and was thrilled to receive an email in the beginning of January that I was selected and would be receiving my box soon! Last week, I received my box of goodies and have been anxious to plan a great party!

It arrived! |
So what is Disney Side @Home Celebration? Disney Parks teams up with BSM Media and a variety of sponsors to send individuals some awesome free products to host a Disney party at your house. In exchange, we agree to host a party by the end of February and share our experiences on our social media outlets - blogs, Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, etc. I have been following many experienced "social media moms" who do these kind of events on a regular basis, but this is a first for me!

I was so excited to open it, but waited for Brody to go to bed because I knew he'd want to rip into everything! |
So what goodies were in the box? Some really awesome products! Based on the questionnaire I submitted in my application, I was selected to host a Cars themed preschool party - perfect for my preschool boy! There were so many goodies that I decided to capture them in a picture for now and will talk more about them as I plan and host my celebration. (P.S. - Notice the Mickey cake pan??? How exciting is that for this novice cake decorator and Disney fan?!?)

Some really amazing items! |
And when will this party take place? Well, those of you who know me personally know that within the next two weeks we are moving into a new house and due to have a new baby. Some of you think I'm crazy to have applied and be selected for this, but I couldn't pass up a Disney opportunity! With that in mind, we're planning a get together on Feb. 28 for some of Brody's friends to come and play. I think Brody will enjoy the time celebrating with his friends in his new house and it will also be great for him to have a day devoted to Brody with so much attention focused on the arrival of his new baby brother.

A little bit closer view of some of the goodies in our kit! |
I can't wait to host my party next month! Look for more blog posts as the date draws closer about planning for the party and, of course, a summary of the party afterwards. A big thank you to all the sponsors for being a part of such an amazing opportunity for us Disney fans to show our #DisneySide!
