About

Join Chris and Sam as we share our magical adventures across all things Disney. As proud Disney Vacation Club members and Walt Disney World Annual Passholders, we experience the magic coast to coast, from Walt Disney World to Disneyland, and even out on the high seas with Disney Cruise Line.

We’re two Disney-loving adults living out our dream, sharing our passion for dining, shopping, shows, and everything in between, from the parks to Disney movies and TV.

Whether you're planning your next trip or just looking for a little extra magic, we’re here to bring you along every step of the way. ✨🏰

Hey there! I’m Chris!

I’m a graduate of the University of Northern Colorado, where I earned my degree in Accounting and Finance, and more importantly, where I met my incredible wife, Sam. I also went on to earn my Master’s in Accounting from the University of North Carolina. During my time at UNC, I was proud to be a member of Alpha Kappa Lambda, an experience that shaped both my college years and lifelong friendships.

I’ve always had a love for Disney, from the storytelling to the unforgettable characters, and I’m excited to share that passion with you here on Cheers to the Ears.

Sam

Hi, I’m Sam!

I’m a graduate of the University of Northern Colorado, where I studied Journalism—and where I met my amazing husband, Chris. During my time at UNC, I was an active member of Alpha Sigma Alpha, an experience that helped shape my leadership, creativity, and love for community.

Today, I’m a high school cheer coach, where I get to inspire athletes, build confidence, and create a positive team culture every day. That same passion for energy, storytelling, and bringing people together is what I pour into Cheers to the Ears.

Disney has always been a special part of my life, and I love sharing the magic—from the parks to the stories that make it all so meaningful.
