When thinking about Walt Disney World and the one favorite memory of mine, my mind just keeps running through the many trips I have taken.  WDW is my favorite memory!  But if I must narrow it down to just one special memory that sticks out in my mind, I would have to say it’s the trip hubby and I made to the Food & Wine Festival in 2008.  It was my new husband’s first trip around the World. He was trying food and wine that he’d never consider tasting before this trip. You see, my dear husband is not an adventurous eater. He has broadened his horizons since I’ve been around, but meat and potatoes had been his main diet. Read more

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.
