Messages from Mickey {2012 Edition}

One of our favorite magical memories from last year’s trip was Messages from Mickey.  We saved a bundle of money on souvenirs as whenever we passed a store we just reminded the littles that Mickey would be picking out a treat especially for them each day! 
 
Like last year, the littles will receive a note and gift from the world’s most revered mouse (tucked into their stockings this time) on each morning of our stay.  Now, if I do say so myself, Mother absolutely outdid herself on these stockings!  And to think I had planned to make them on my own :-)  (Thank goodness for that miscommunication, as mine were going to be constructed of burlap and fabric glue.)

I sized the notecards at 4"x6" so that they'll fit right in our Disney memory books, and used the same Brady Bunch and Waltograph fonts from the signature books and matching game

I’m beyond excited to be doing this again.  Alas, it does take pre-planning, but it was SO worth it to see the magic on their faces first thing every  morning!
