It started out like any other southern, balmy, September morning in Florida. I had vacationed at Walt Disney World many times, both as a child and as an adult, and had many great experiences. It has always been my favorite place on Earth, but this particular day, it would become even more special, this day would change the rest of my life. Read more

And welcome also to our newest writer, Bird, also known on her blog as DisneyBird. We are so thrilled to have her join us, and share as her first official post, such a great memory! 🙂

And now, Let the Memories Begin!

Having just returned from Walt Disney World only a month ago, I have so many fresh, vivid memories to choose from. This was a very difficult task to pick just one. Picking a ‘favorite’ was practically impossible! While I can’t say for sure which of the many special moments was a true ‘favorite’, I can tell you that this one ranks right up there with the best of them! Read more

Narrowing down the happiest days of my life to one specific memory is quite a task. I decided that it would not involve any of my kids since I have three and, although I have special memories of each one, I wouldn’t want to choose one over the other. I couldn’t think of a specific memory between my husband and myself that stood out particularly bright against the rest. So, I decided to go with the person who started it all, my mom.

The Magic, The Memories and You - Walt Disney World

Many folks (including myself) have found Disney’s “Let the Memories Begin” promotion this year to be a touching way to celebrate something that we all….Disney veteran or first-timer….associate with a Disney vacation: the opportunity to create special, lasting memories with those we love. Few things are more precious…or priceless….than these moments we share with family and friends on a Disney vacation.

I bring this up because, I am getting ready to leave for vacation next week, and while I wish I could say that we were going to be traveling to Walt Disney World, I am still excited nonetheless to have a chance to unwind at the beach for an entire week. Now, those of you who have been regular readers of The Affordable Mouse for a while, know that when I go on vacation, I like to bring you guys back a souvenir or two as giveaways. 🙂 And as I talked about this with our wonderful writers, we thought it might be fun to tie my vacation giveaway for you into some fun and games as well, all celebrating what Disney does best…create memories.
