Fave Disney memory: There are so many...one is probably from a trip 2 years ago where I accompanied my mom on a trip with a group of developmentally challenged adults she works with (teaching them life skills, etc.). They've been very into pin trading since being introduced to it, and on one of the last days of the trip, we went into the Confectionary to get some fudge. We noticed that the CM behind the counter was also from a suburb of St. Louis and so struck up a conversation with him. One of the ladies traded pins with him and was thrilled because the pin she got was a LE one and much fancier than the other ones she had. So we got our fudge and were walking out onto Main Street again when we heard, "Excuse me, miss? Excuse me!" behind us...it was the CM again, and he'd taken his St. Louis Cardinals Mickey pin off of his lanyard to give to Mary, just because he knew she'd like it. He wouldn't take another pin in exchange, and Mary's mom was so moved she began to cry. :goodvibes

The other one's from a few years ago as well--we spend a lot of time watchng Off Kilter whenever we're there (and I mean a LOT--in a normal, non-theme-park context, there'd probably be talk of restraining orders...lol) and during one of the shows that I happened to miss, my mom told them that it was my birthday the next day. That next day was the last one of our trip, so I was a little bummed, but certainly perked up when Jamie announced that it was my birthday and the entire band played "Happy Birthday" to me. I mean, is there anything better than being serenaded by a hot dude in a kilt?! :teeth:
