i'd like to go when it's not so busy, so we can avoid the long lines!

I have not been since I was in sixth grade. I just remember not gettin to ride stuff because of the long lines and my parents being too tired to go all over. I look forward to the opportunity to take our kiddos.

We had a wondeful trip last year with Ela, but my favorite memory has to be from my honeymoon. We went in December, and it was magical. Crowded, but wonderful. We have never been back at Christmas, may have to think about that!

We actually went in early December this past year so, it wasn't  very crowded but all of the decorations and celebrations were everywhere!!  SO much fun!

I've been to Disney World numerous times, but my favorite time was my DD's first trip in 2008 when she was 15 months old.  My parents paid for my whole family (10 of us) to go.  I'm really hoping to be able to take my DD back soon because she would absolutely love it right now!

The last time I was at Disney was when I was 7.  Michael Jackson's 3D show was practically brand new.  We also went to Epcot and Sea World.  Those were the only other attractions there at the time.  One day I want to take our kids.

This is my favorite memory. A take my granddaughter to Disneyland often as we have annual passes. We try to see the characters every once in a while, but up until this day she was afraid of them. She got excited when she saw mickey so I convinced my daughter to hop in line just to see what would happen. As you can see by the expression on my daughters face we were pretty surprised when dgd walked right up to mickey and gave him a kiss. I wish I had taken video! He kissed her cheek and all day she was pointing to her cheek saying "mouse".

We told our kids we were on our way to Grandmas house to have a tea party-they are 2 boys they werent thrilled. Then when we pulled thru the Disney Gate.... :) I snuck up to our hotel room while my Hubby and the kids got things organized. I put Their Mickey ears and autograph books on their pillows. Their ears had their names on them-they were soooo excited! :)

It is beautiful, even though they have cut back some on the light displays. For those who go, consider going around to the different resorts, Especially the Grand Floridian. Count all of the mickey's there, and buy some gingerbread shingles. :)

it must look so nice at Christmas time!

Christmas at Disney a few years ago- the lights, the decorations.  We visited several of the resorts and admired the decorations there.

 The year we went to Disney, I was 4 and the only child at the time. We made a full weekend of it, going to Disney and Sea World and to the Coral Castle in Coral Gables. I remember vividly everything that happened as if it were yesterday, especially my Daddy pretending he was going to get sick on the tea cups, and Mama being annoyed over the many different versions of "It's a Small World" playing as we rode, lol. It was the best!
