I took my 6-month-old granddaughter to see the giant mouse for the first time in August. This was the first day of our vacation and she was all dressed and ready to go. She loved every minute of it. Can’t wait to take her back. (Submitted by Jackie M.)

This sums up what Disney is all about; pure childlike joy! Who knew a spinning teacup could elicit such a perfect memory! My 3-year-old is hooked, just like his mom. (Submitted by Amiee B.)

My daughter-in-law, Sara, has been a big Winnie The Pooh fan her whole life. During our visit in June she and my son, Matt, loaded up on all things Pooh for their upcoming bundle, little Cali who arrives in September. Our visit to the Crystal Palace rewarded all of us, especially Sara, with an unforgettable moment between Sara, Cali, and Pooh. (Submitted by Peggie C.)

This is my daughter Sydney and this was her first trip to Disney World. She wore her costume that morning to eat breakfast at the castle and little did we know that we would run into Tinker Bell that afternoon. Tinker Bell was so sweet to her and told Sydney how beautiful she was. After the picture, Tinker Bell gave her pixie dust and I teared up seeing the sparkle in my little girl’s eyes. An experienced Sydney will always remember and one I can’t wait to have again. I am always thinking about our next trip! (Submitted by Jessica C.)

My character visiting the characters.
We did a Disney trip without grandkids and had a wonderful time. Even though we were on a solo trip, my husband did not want to miss the meet and greet at Epcot… As you can see we love all of Disney… (Submitted by Brenda S.)

My son, Danny, is 7 and loves Star Wars. We’ve gone to Disney’s Star Wars Weekends for 3 years now. He has the real Stormtrooper armor and insists on wearing it all day, even in 90+ degree weather. He believes he is on the Darkside now and will hardly take any pictures with the good guys. He also believes he’s been personally invited by Darth Vader to guard him and gets to do that along with the other Stormtroopers when he’s there. The cast members are magical. It makes his whole year. That’s why we love Disney!

This is our 7-year-old Goddaughter, Elizabeth, on her first trip to Disney World in 2010. Since she was old enough to recognize the castle in her Disney movies, we had been promising to take her someday. Needless to say, she was totally mesmerized by it all, but my favorite memory had to be one of the first things we did upon arriving at Magic Kingdom. Obviously, we had to go see the princesses. We were able to meet Aurora, Belle, and Cinderella (her favorite). She listened to them so intently and as we were walking out of the room, she looked up at me with those big blue eyes and said, “That was so…” (she paused to try to find the correct word and then added)…” magical.” I couldn’t have said it better myself.

This photo is of my 2 yr old grandson Brantley and I as we boarded the monorail. Before his first visit, we had looked at pictures on the computer for weeks, so when he saw the monorail (or the “monorail train” as he calls it because he loves the Disney show Chuggington) he was very excited as we sat down and start to move! To him, this was an exciting “ride!” What a precious first visit he had! (Submitted by Sandra H.)

I will never forget being a bridesmaid in my friend’s beautiful wedding that was held at the Wedding Pavilion in May 2010. After a beautiful ceremony and a delicious reception at the California Grill, the bridal party decided the night was still young, so we headed over to the Magic Kingdom in our wedding best. My husband (the best man) and I decided to have our own ‘Trash the Dress’ moment and got completely soaked on Splash Mountain! It was a night I will never forget! (Submitted by Theresa K.)

I took my two nieces (Ansleigh 5, Addison 2) to Magic Kingdom just before Christmas for their Christmas gift from Aunt Jeni. They have soooo many toys and “stuff” at the house, I thought vacation time and memories would be a better gift.
My youngest niece LOVES yellow and LOVES Minnie Mouse (she was Minnie for Halloween). She had never mentioned the fact that Minnie’s shoes are yellow…until meeting her in person! This photo is what happens at the moment she realized that she and Minnie Mouse have matching yellow shoes! (Submitted by Jennifer P.)

My 2nd son, Mitchell, has an annual tradition of asking Cinderella for a kiss. It started back in 2008 when he was scared of the big masked characters, so decided he liked the princesses! He’s told me he’s going to ask every year until he is 10 (now 7) and then reassess the situation! This kiss was taken at the 1900 Park Fare character dinner at the Grand Floridian Resort.

This is my absolute favorite picture! It was taken when our 2-year-old twins, Trey and Ty, met Mickey for the first time. They adore Mickey so their facial expressions are priceless! Thank goodness for PhotoPass!
