Photos of Happiness
Winter made an appearance this week in Alberta. Snow. Cold – lots of both. Dinners are more comforting, blinds are closed and the furnace is chugging along. Boo!
Something I also find helpful in warming up, and bringing a huge smile to the face?
These photos.
They are from our recent stay at Walt Disney World for the #DisneyHaunt event. Sometimes you need an extra dose of happiness on a dreary day.
One of my favourites from the trip, I love capturing the girls reactions. This one of them watching the parade is just one of the photos I got when I focused on them and not just what was around them.
This isn’t my family, yet I love the combination of the ears and the castle in the background at The Magic Kingdom. So adorable!
My oldest daughter became instant friends with the daughter of fellow Canadian blogger and #DisneyHaunt attendee, Julie. These two connected instantly and were usually found together, and most likely holding hands like they did here at Animal Kingdom. Bonded by Disney!
Exactly how many children can you stuff into a phone booth in the UK at Epcot?
And then there’s the California feel of Hollywood Studios – palm trees, sun, blue skies. Ahhh!
Do you have photos that change your mood instantly?

Wow! This looks like such fun! I can’t wait til I get to take my Kiddies there for the 1st time!
I love a parade….and ironically I also posted about Disney!
I saw that!! Yay for great WW photos!! 😉
What fun! You got some fabulous pictures, thank you for sharing!
Thank you Sarah!
Great pics! Looks like lots of fun
What fun love your colourful photos 😉
Have a disneytastic week 😉
Hi Tammi. These are just lovely. I have moments more than pictures that make me smile.
Those are great photos Tammi!
Thank you Randa! Have a great rest of the week!
I like to see posts of Disneyland/World because they bring back such fun memories! ILOVEWALTDISNEYANDHISCREATIVEMIND!
Ha!!! LOVE your comment!!
😉
awww thank you for bringing me back…it was super sweet how the kids took to each other
It was so sweet. She never ‘takes’ to people that quickly, like instantly. She knows good people when she sees them!
😉
Looks like it was such a wonderful time for you and your family! Love the photo of your daughter and her new friend holding hands. Our daughter and her best friend always held hands when they were little!
Thank you Monica, they are wonderful memories!
Gorgeous photos and they do make me feel warmth! (or maybe that’s the slippers on my feet and the blanket on my lap lol Thanks for sharing!
Ha!! 🙂
Oh no, you kidding? It is a decal that came in a Spookette set. I’m talking more about it tomorrow on my next post. ♥
Oh really?! I’ll have to read – send me the link once it’s up. I totally thought you did that. SUCCESS!!! 😉
I’m loving that last photo with the huge Mickey Wizard hat in the background! I miss Disney World, haven’t been since I was nine!
Thanks Karly, I’m a pretty big fan of palm tress myself. I love, love, love them!
Great pictures….oh how I wish I was at Disney right now!
I know I just went but me too!! You get addicted to the place, like flies to a lightbulb! lol
With our cold temps, I could seriously handle being at Disney right now. And I love the pic of the family with the ears on!
So cold already…. 🙁
Lovely shots and so glad you got to go! Teresa from NanaHood.com
Thanks Teresa!
That looks like a great time. I’m sure it was fun to escape the cold weather. It’s rainy, dark and cold here today. A little sunshine was great to see.
I can’t see your linky for some reason.
What? Hope it came up for you? …. ?
Beautiful shots to lift one’s spirit! Thanks for hosting.
Thank you Judy!
I love the photo of their reactions! Such a great shot =)
Yeah, I love that one! Too often I get the back of their heads at Disney, I tried to change my position this time!
Beautiful shots. There is nothing quite like the magic of Disney.
You are so right Crystal!
what a gorgeous day to have been out at the theme park!
It was! HOT!!!
How fun! Great photos!
Thanks Sarah!
Happy Happy WW!!
You as well Cathi – have a great rest of the week!
You were right to focus on the kids rather than all the fun sights around them – that is a perfect shot!
Thank you!!! It’s hard to keep this in mind, always used to whats going on around them – I need to focus on them more, not just for portraits
That really is the happiest place on earth! I so wanna go back soon! Your photos are so lovely! And what an “awww” moment with the girls holding hands!
🙂
Such beautiful photos, Tammi! What special memories you and your family are creating. Love these pics!
Thanks Christine!
🙂
What great pictures, love the instant friends. Disney has that way with people 🙂 Thanks for sharing!
So true!
Those are lovely photos, especially to look back on when the weather is chilly!
Very true, I’ll be doing that often this Winter!
I love that moment of joy and awe captured in the first photo with the pointing finger and open mouth smile. “Look!” Beautiful!
Thanks Deb – I love it too!
😉
Great pictures! So colourful! I wish I was there now instead of being wrapped in a Snuggie on this cold day, lol.
Me too Brenda, me too!!
🙂
I love all of the mouse ears in the crowds
Great addition to the pic, right?!
Nothing better to chase the winter blues than a day at Disney. Glad you have those happy memories to fall back on.
Yes, I agree. Very fortunate indeed!
I always love looking at your photos. Such great captures Tammi! 🙂
Lovely photos! It looks like Disney was a blast! So picturesque:) I hope I can take my son one day!
Great pictures, Disney seems to bring out the inner child in everyone.
It sure does! Ahhh! 🙂
What great photos! I always look at a picture of my mans and I at his deployment homecoming. It makes me smile every time!
I love those red phone booths, and I love Disney!
So fun!
snow not here yet but we did have our first frost this past Monday
Aw thanks for sharing! None of my own photos come to mind, but seeing yours certainly changed my mood! What sweet pictures!
oh the friendship so sweet, no snow here yet but lots of damp rainy weather.
I love your photos 🙂 It looks like you guys had a blast!
Aw, these are great 😀
