To all who come to this happy place…WELCOME!

Hiya Pal! I’m Lizzy, a proud mom of two energetic boys who keep life exciting and a wife of five wonderful years to my real-life prince charming! We technically live in AZ but consider Disneyland to be our REAL home! ;)

My oldest was born with Down Syndrome and we like to say this is what makes him EXTRA MAGICAL and is why I go by the Extra Magical Mama. I love advocating for him and other special needs families! Helping them create magical memories is just so special to me!

When I’m not chasing after my little adventurers or daydreaming about my next Disney trip, you can usually find me doing something creative. Whether its crafting, painting, or making something new with my Cricut - I love finding ways to express myself!

I also enjoy a little retail therapy (shopping is my cardio!) and diving into a good Disney puzzle – it’s my version of relaxation. And of course, there's nothing better than spending quality time with my friends & family, sharing laughs and great moments together!

After approximately 300 hours in the Disney parks over the last 5 years...and many more hours that I can’t calculate over the course of my life...I’m pretty much an expert! But as a special needs mom, I truly believe I have it down! We often joke that a day at Disneyland is easier to do than going to the local playground or a day at the zoo is for us! I love that I have found a way to share this passion and knowledge with other families!
