I'm snowed in! What are your favorite "Disney Moments?"

[Andrina]

Do you remember your favorite "Disney Moment?" I have had so many and remember them all.

Now with Pandora's Disney Channel, well, I'm snowed in at the moment and basically walking around my living room having a dance party with my kids and weeping.

What is a "Disney moment?" Well, it's that Gotcha! moment when you get all choked up, or you have goose bumps going up and down your arms or when you simply burst into tears. Disney gives us those moments, throughout our lives, that make us catch our breath-gasp!- and fill our hearts with wonder and magic.

Here are some of mine:

Sitting in the theatre during the opening scene of "The Little Mermaid." Just hearing the first song you knew this was a game-changer.

Opening night of the Lion King 1994, pregnant with my first child. Remember the first time you saw that sliver of sun and heard the opening song?

When Ray DIES.

"You'll be in My Heart" Every.time.

And most recently, I went to go see a new Disney movie called Frozen. (lol) It was during the day and it sounded kind of dumb but I went to a matinee with my sister. When Elsa started singing "Let It Go" I almost stood up in the theatre and said "You guys! What is happening?!!" Then I found out it was Idina Menzel-so duh. But still.

Watching Wishes at WDW with my family.

What are yours??

"You'll Be In My Heart" gets me every time, too.

I resisted watching Lilo & Stitch for a really long time, and only recently watched it last year. When Stitch is getting ready to leave on the spaceship and asks to say goodbye to Lilo, I lost it. I hugged my dog and sobbed. I'm such a sap.

And I've told this story here on the DIS before, but my favorite Disney magic moment happened on my 25th birthday with my mom at DL. Her favorite part of the fireworks is when Tink soars from Sleeping Beauty castle to the Matterhorn, and seeing her get so excited and exclaiming "It's Tink!" and seeing her eyes light up...it was just so sweet and touching. This is the woman who taught me my love for Disney and always told me it was important to cultivate your inner child, and to see her embrace that in herself, it was just so special. I cherish that moment with my mom.
