Jackey DeschampsFebruary 9, 2018August 17, 2021

We made it to race number 2 of the Dopey Challenge. And I think I laughed more during this race than I have at any Disney race ever. Let me start with our costumes. Somewhere months back when discussing if we’d do Dopey Challenge I made a deal with Laura I’d run as Elvis, the …

  • Jumping in on the tail end of #PrincessWeek to show love to these amazing gals who changed my life! ✨💖✨
✨
Fun Fact: Before the 2014 #TowerofTerror race, I hadn’t gone on a vacation with girlfriends in over 20 years and I was still mourning the loss of a dear friend. So when @sarahud5 and @shannon_mcintosh42 invited me to join their group on a runDisney adventure … OMG. I was beyond excited!! 🥰
✨
And nervous. 😳 What if they didn’t like me?? I was so worried about making a bad impression that I was careful to hide my crazy, staying on my absolute best behavior. I was neat and never late, always the first to be ready. I did multiple courtesy flushes, volunteered for the sleeper sofa, and tried my best not to curse … emphasis on TRY 🤣.
✨
Turned out, however, we were all wonderfully crazy and they accepted me, flaws and all, late or cursing. 🥰 Then came along @winter720 and @jennalynjaeger making our Princess group complete!! 👑 And throughout my runDisney journey, I’ve met so many other awesome people and made countless memories I’ll always cherish! ❤️
✨
So now I can’t wait for my 12th year of the #PrincessHalfMarathon with my roomies, (except Steph, sniff 😢) and so many other dear friends! 👑 And ladies, I’ll try to stop being late all the time … emphasis on TRY. 🤣

We had such an amazing adventure last weekend with the kids!! Lots of time on the water … my happy place … with @asapbrocy fishing and crabbing with his dad and @tay_tayann._ as my new paddle board buddy!! 🛶 
🔹
I also tried paddle board yoga for the first time … with tons of jellyfish in the water. 😳 Do. Not. Fall. 🤣 But my new @serenelifesupboard handled like a boss, even in the choppy water! I’m so glad I bought it on Amazon prime day!! 💙
🔹
I hope you’re having an amazing summer!!
