Magical Experience and Need Help!!!

[natnelliesmom]

Okay... I'm crying too! I could blame pregnancy emotions... but I think it's just being a Disney goober that does it!

I'm going to have to let my husband read this one- might encourage him to move a little faster in the morning!

That is such a wonderful memory that your kids will cherish their whole lives.
-Sarah

BTW- still crying here!

Happy Anniversay and WOW!!! So happy for you and your family to have that special day. I know you all will never forget it.

By the way I would be crying and still crying if it happened to me.

How wonderful, I teared up just thinking about it, can't wait to see your pics.
We left on Sunday 31st too...it was so hard we were sad.....so i understand..

HI,
We got there just as the opening was beginning.
I have it on video. It looked like you were having a blast
It is a brand new HD camcorder and it will take me awhile to figure out how to download it and get it to you.
If you will contact me at jpm1@charter.net we can work on a way to get it to you.

This is me when I started reading the post:

This is me after y'all were picked to open the park and your wife started crying:

what a wonderful time for your family. Even better that another Diser got the video for you. Gotta love the Disboards!

congrats on your anniversary!!

 

[auntread]

Wow, I am so HAPPY for you and your family!! that was a wonderful thing to happen. You can add me to the growing lists of saps, I got all teary, too. Although I prefer to think of us as "sentimental softies".

I'm such a sap... I'm tearing up just reading this. Thanks for sharing your magical moment!

Lol...me too! My eyes got all teared up when reading it!

Thanks for all the responses. My wife is busily cropping and adding borders to our photopass so we can get it ordered. I had to leave to go out of town on business yesterday, so when I get home on Friday, I am going to upload some of the photos we took while in Toon Town and the one of the kids with Mickey. Look for them on Friday or Saturday!!!

 

[LizAgna]

I so wish we had gotten up early enough that morning to see ya'll up there! You all were still so excited when we saw you at the park later that day. Even though I had heard the story from you in person I still cried when I read it...I'm so glad you got to do this especially on your anniversary! It is definitely something you will never forget!!

 

[blondemom]

Wow. What a beautiful story! What a fantastic anniversary present! Thanks for sharing. And, yep, I'm a sap too. I cried. The thing is, I'm sure there are some people who wouldn't have really appreciated that surprise. I'm glad they picked a deserving family.

What a magical memory for you!
How wonderful it must be for the CM's that get to create magic for guests every day! I'd be crying right along with the families!

Thanks for telling us about your pre-opening adventure. I had no idea that the first family got to do so much before the park opened. I just assumed that they jumped on the train and rode in with Mickey and the gang, which, of course, would be plenty cool!

Your story is the reason I love WDW so much I hope that you're able to find someone on here who happened to be there video taping the opening ceremony that morning

 

[wickey's friend]

Another sap here. We leave on Monday for an 8-day trip. Your experience is exactly why I love going to WDW. So glad you got pictures and someone was able to capture it on video for you!

 

[twindad2]

Have a great time on your trip and hopefully some pixie dust will come your way. We are still on cloud nine about this trip and hope to start planning our next one soon. Hoping for another May trip as the crowds (with the exception of Memorial Day) were great. The longest we waited for anything was Splash Mountain and it was 30 minutes. TSM we did at rope drop two mornings and it was a mad dash to Pixar Place.

 

[eeyorecher]

How exciting! I know exactly how you feel-the same thing happened to us a few weeks ago and it was the most amazing experience ever!!!

 

[flamingglobessigmund]

Saplet #39. Can't wait for the pics!

 

[cleophus12]

I was following this thread just to see if anyone had the video. JPM1st, you are my hero and I hope you are able to get the video to this lucky family. What a great experience!
