funny trend, so many of us getting hooked as adults....
HOOKED: We took our 2 DS's for the first time in 2006, then 4 and 7. They were going to be Green Power Ranger and Darth Vador for MNSSHP that trip. We stayed at BC and went the first day we arrived to HS. They had the Stars and Card Motor parade and both Darth and Green PR literally came directly to the boys (randomly of course) and did a little pose and interaction with them during the parade. All four of us were astonished, I couldn't believe the magic, how did they know???? Tears, and more tears when we went to MK the next day.
Favorite moment - HOOKED FOR LIFE: - when I realized DH got it. We all held hands on our 2010 trip, and skipped, yes skipped through Fantasyland from the carousel to Peter Pan - laughing, skipping, DH was the leader and loving it, it was magical (I know it sounds dorky a bit, but it was a sincere moment of happiness for us all!)
Having had a difficult childhood where I didn't really allow myself to have much fun since I was always worrying about things, I find our trips allow me to have childlike fun, to be a kid and worry free (my only worry is when can we come back!!) enhanced more by the joy it brings our children and our family as a whole. We have always had a magical moment every trip, some bigger than others, but they are all meaningful.
Thank you OP for turning my frown upside down on this busy morning and reminding me of such wonderful memories, I have enjoyed reading the others as well!
