A Trip Down Magical Memory Lane
My new blogger friend, Jennifer, has decided to do a Destination Disney carnival and because we all know that I’m a bit of a Disneyphile, I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to join in. The theme for this debut weekend is “Disney Magic.” And really, once you’ve been there and experienced it, you’ll see that it’s all magic.
Having practically grown up at Disneyland, I was already an uber fan of all things Disney. So when I got the chance to go to Disney World for the first time in 2001, you can bet I jumped at the opportunity. And in the many times we’ve gone back since, countless memories have been made.
Like the time we celebrated at Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party in style, all dressed up in a Peter Pan theme. We must have looked especially festive because as we stood staring at Cinderella Castle, a Cast Member approached and asked if we’d like to act as Grand Marshalls for the special Halloween parade. I bet you can guess what our answer was.

Oh, and if you’ve checked out my video on the moms panel site, you’ve heard the story of the time the girls were all lined up against the nautical rope at Disney’s Beach Club and I was brought to tears because I was so happy to have my family back together after Jeff’s stint in Iraq. Here’s the visual:
Of course, both of those magical memories happened before sweet Mr. Jayce came along. Not to worry though; I’ve already started him out on his Disney journey. Here he is getting his very first (and much needed) haircut from Beverlene at the Harmony Barber Shop on Main Street in the Magic Kingdom.
We’re made of Disney memories. And, let me assure you, there are plenty more to follow. We’re currently counting down the days to our next Disney vacation in the fall! I’ll be sure to share all the details…
As Tigger would say, TTFN!



These photos are precious! I can not wait to see more!

How fun–y’all looked so cute in your Peter Pan costumes.
I love the magic of that first-haircut at Disney!
Sounds like fun! We haven’t taken our daughter to Disney yet, but we’re contemplating a trip this May. I’ll have to soak up all your knowledge and experience on the topic when we meet.
I am visiting from Jennifer’s carnival. Ilove your Peter Pan outfits! What an ensemble! You all do such a great job with the Mom’s Panel. I read it just for fun!
