That is awesome! I love the story. I will definitely be checking on that book.
Thanks Jill!!

That is awesome! I love the story. I will definitely be checking on that book.
Wow!!! That is so cool, what another great way to keep that memory too.You'll have to get extra copies for your girls.
Congratulations, Becky! That is very neat to be a published author!!!
Congrats on being published Becky! It is such a lovely story and so well written. I may have to look into getting a copy.
Becky, how cool! Congratulations! I can't wait to check out that book!
Snow White is the queen of the kisses. Both Luke and Emily have gotten red marks from the Fairest one of all! What a nice memory... and I am sure the book is a great read too!
Yes, I did know that, Trish!! How very horrible!! I feel so bad for complaining about a few pictures when you lost ALL of yours. Please forgive me.And I agree--I'm very thankful that we can go back so soon and redo the BBB. That is definitely a plus!!

Becky - I certainly did not post about my story to diminish in any way the significance of the loss of your photos!We both suffered a loss - no question!!! Perhaps yours was even greater because I was the author of my own misfortune. You were a complete innocent bystander so to speak.
Anyway...what I was trying to say (somewhat ineptly) is that at least you and I are in the lucky group of people who were able to go again in a few months time to recapture another BBB experience when our daughters were/are still the same age. We had/have the chance for a do-over, whereas many other people would not be as fortunate. Thinking about it that way makes my heart break a little less for some reason.
Trust me though...I still feel the loss, as I now feel for you as well!![]()
Congrats Becky!!!!
I love your story, and how impressive seeing it in print like that! What a wonderful keepsake!![]()
I can't remember how much I shared about this here on the DIS but many months ago I submitted a story to WDW Memories. WDW Memories is a book that "shares the magic of the Disney experience through a collection of favorite Disney vacation memories as told by everyday WDW resort guests." (taken from back of book) Well my story was one of the ones chosen for the book as was several other DISers--Katie (Bippity Boo) and Sara (mom2mek)!!! The book is now available for purchase and I just received my copy!

Published!!! How cool is that?!?!?
Congratulations!
And thanks for your book recommendations! I think I might order that DVD set for FIL for Father's Day. I think he'd really like that.
I heard about this book on the WDW Today podcast, and I think it sounds really cool. I need to order it sometime.
Uh oh, I think I need to do a little Disney shopping now!I must have one of those Disney Parks DVD's! Because as much as I love the books - a DVD is even better! Sometimes when I'm bored I go onto YouTube and watch the travel channel Disney shows to get my Disney fix, so I think I would love that DVD! Thanks for posting the link!
And congrats on getting your story published in the wdw memories book! That is so neat, and what a great keepsake for your family!I might just need to get one of those too! I would love to read everyone's stories!
OMG Becky!!! How cool is that!!! Congrats!!! I think I want to go and get that book!!!![]()
