By Leave a Comment

We have no problem admitting that some things in Disney World make us cry — and we have a feeling y’all totally understand that.

What makes you cry in Disney World?

By 1 Comment

So, we were in Magic Kingdom (’cause we’re in Magic Kingdom almost every day), and we saw a SURPRISE AND DELIGHT!
