Marathon Weekend 2019

SAFD: I have a tote bag that “Disney-bounds” Mickey from Disney Floral and Gifts embroidered with “MARATHONER” that DH got for me filled with tasty treats after my first marathon. It was a great surprise!

It has a zippered bottom to keep things chilled, so it is great to take along for a day trip. I can carry wallet, phone, jacket, chapstick, etc. in the top along with bottled water and snacks in the bottom. Used it Wednesday spending the day at the hospital when a friend had surgery.

And it makes me smile!
 
SAFD: Pressed pennies! The cheapest Disney souvenir there was, and a fun scavenger hunt for the kids. Upstairs there is still a huge collection of them gathering dust. That and a small fortune in pins. I really should try to sell some of this stuff on ebay!
 

SAFD: I have 3 favorite souvenirs from WDW- I have the Tree of Life bookends I got when Animal Kingdom first opened, I got it during the DVC previews and haven't seen anything like that since.
My husband proposed to me in the MK's rose garden after the fireworks, so we bought one of those wooden frames with the characters on it and got it engraved with the date of the proposal, and have a picture of us in it from that night.
My 3rd favorite souvenir is my Dooney and Bourke purse my husband bought for me for running my first half marathon. It's the 2015 marathon weekend purse and I use it everyday.
 
Sundays are for Disney: What is your favorite Disney souvenir or keepsake?
The first thing that comes to mind is my MSEP record album. I remember I kept scratching it, so we had to repurchase it every trip! I've always been a big fan of Baroque Hoedown and the record has the images of the floats on it. It's pretty cool, actually! I also have a bulb from one of the floats from when the parade was retired (temporarily as it turns out) in the late 90's.

Oh, I also have some Disneyland Viewmaster slides from when I was a kid. Those are fun!
 
Belated SAFD:

Four days after returning from my first year of college, several hundred families in my hometown lost their homes to a prescribed burn that got out of control and became a massive wildfire. After losing basically everything, my sister and I no longer collect anything.

However, my most cherished Disney souvenir is an amazing caricature of my sis and I from a trip to Disneyland when I was middle schoolish age. The artist did a phenomenal job, and it’s one of the items my dad saved while we were being evacuated. It is beautiful and not cartoonish at all. I would absolutely love to find a comparable artist and have one of my girls done at similar ages. :love:

I really like my Pixie Dust Challenge shirt trio from 2015 I think, my Stitch 10k shirt from a DL 1/2 weekend, and my 100 Mile Club students always love the Lightside Star Wars shirts.

Other than that I have no idea what to do with all the magic bands we’ve accumulated already!:oops:
 
I don't really have a favorite souvenir. I have many favorite family pics though.

I'm so so excited b/c we just managed to book a DVC studio at Animal Kingdom! Praying they don't decide to change the dates now, lol!
