Fun Find: Disney Medley

Hello friends!  Today, I wanted to share a Fun Find Friday that I stumbled across the other day while browsing Facebook.  You might have seen it already, but if you haven't- stop what you're doing and take five minutes to watch this video!  You won't regret it!



I love Disney medleys; I also love a cappella.  This video is extra special because it features the a cappella group, Voctave.  You might recognize some of the singers as performers from "Voices of Liberty" in Epcot!  It also features Kristin Maldonado from Pentatonix and Jeremy Michael Lewis from AcoUskiKats.  

The medley is absolutely beautiful.  I love the combination of "See the Light" (Tangled), "You'll Be in my Heart" (Tarzan) and "Go the Distance" (Hercules).  These are three of my favorite Disney songs and it seems like Hercules is always overlooked.  I'm so glad they included it in this medley!  The entire song is also available to download in iTunes!  (I've already added it to my Disney music collection.)  I hope you enjoy it!!!  °o°

Fun Find: Kyle Landry- Pianist

Hey Guys!  I'm sorry I haven't dropped by lately.  It has been another busy week at the Cady house.  Eliot's grandfather has been very ill and he passed away Wednesday night. Understandably, I've taken a break from my blogging to spend time with my husband.  Pa Joe was a wonderful man and I'm glad to have known him.  He will be greatly missed.

Eliot will be in California with his family for the next week and I'm hoping to get a few Halloween projects completed while he's away.  (I've had them planned for a while now.) In the meantime, I wanted to share another Fun Find Friday with you!  Before I left for my trip to Walt Disney World, I stumbled across some videos on YouTube.


I was looking for piano versions of "Let It Go" when I came across pianist Kyle Landry.  I immediately stopped everything and watched at least five of his Disney videos.  He's very talented and he composes his own versions of the songs!


I absolutely love his version of "Part of Your World" from the Little Mermaid.  I've listened to it at least 10 times since I discovered his Youtube channel.


His version of "I Can Go the Distance" gives me chills every time I hear it.  


Kyle even has a whole playlist of his Disney songs!


These compositions are not only beautiful, but there's something relaxing about listening to the piano versions of my favorite Disney songs.  They're perfect to listen to in the background while I'm working on some of my projects!


Enjoy!!!  °o°

The Never Ending Winter

Well, here we are with yet another winter storm.  (Surprise, surprise!)  We're supposed to get another 4-8 inches?!?!?!  Where on earth are we going to put it with the foot and a half that we've already accumulated in the last week and a half?

With all of this talk about the weather and the continuous impending doom, it's reminded me of another February storm from last year.  Nemo!

I think we've all dubbed this year the winter of Elsa.  I mean, it's basically been freezing across the entire country for weeks now.  And we keep getting pelted with snow.  Who else could it be right?

Note: When I told Elsa about this theory at Disney, she told me she didn't think it was her. But she didn't remember freezing over her own kingdom either.  Anyways... whether or not she remembers doing it, I think I know who I'm going to blame.

I guess the positive to all of this snow and cold weather is that I'm pretty reluctant to even leave the house.  I've been able to get a lot of cleaning, crafting and organizing done these past few weeks.  Other than going out to get more materials, I've pretty much enjoyed the interior of our home!

Another plus for you guys is that once I get these projects finished, you will be able to enjoy the fruit of my labor through some tutorials and printables.  (And some cool pictures of our very Disney-fied house.)

So, to celebrate the never-ending-winter of Elsa, here are some Disney weather humor pictures for your enjoyment!

I have to admit that I find it amusing how people can put a little Disney spin into pretty much anything and everything.

On a side note, a lot of these pictures were probably originally shared on Facebook and Tumblr.  I saved a ton of photos that I came across from winter storm Nemo last year before I started blogging.  

Instead of posting a bunch of photos with no sources, I hunted these down on Pinterest. Thus, all of the Pinterest links as sources.  Not the most credible photo source, but it worked for the simple amusement factor of this post.

And, in all seriousness, winter storms aren't really funny.  People get injured (or worse) in them all the time.  I'm a Maine girl, so we usually laugh off winter and snow because we're used to it.  It kind of comes with the whole "Mainer" territory.

It's not so funny when people who aren't used to it, or whose cities are not prepared for it, get a huge winter storm.  (Love to my friends down south!  Stay safe!!!)

I could go on and on about global warming... but this post is supposed to be about finding the light heartedness of life through Disney fun.

And has anybody else noticed that Walt Disney World and Disneyland seem immune to the snow and cold... yeah, that's what I thought!  Good planning ahead Disney!  ;-)

Stay warm and safe Disney friends!!!  °o°
