  • Excited voiceover: “You’ve had a full day at the Magic Kingdom! You’ve shopped! You’ve conquered the rides! You’ve eaten great food! You’ve met Mickey Mouse! You’ve shared good company! You’ve worn crazy glasses! What are you going to do next?”

    Excited response: “We’re going to Disneyland!!!!!”

    (Side note: I will admit to having those same giant glasses and ancient shopping bags in the early ’80s as well — except I was rockin’ them at Disneyland!)

  • My future’s so bright, I gotta wear (giant 80s style) shades!

  • “To laugh at yourself is to love yourself.”

  • “Link your elbows, step in time. Link your elbows, step in time…”

    • Good one.

  • Mickey Ears: $20
    Big goofy glasses: $10
    Shorter-than-short shorts: $40

    Looking SO retro you start a new trend: worth every penny when you’re at Walt Disney World! °o°

  • Sneezy? Nope. Grumpy? Nope. Sleepy? Nope. Doc? Nope. Happy? Not really. Bashful? Not a chance! Doopey? Yep, definitely Doopey!

  • “Gee, I sure hope mom never sends this picture with our Christmas cards. I’d hate to think that people might be gawking at our outifts.”

  • Big goofy glasses? Check.
    Mickey ears? check.

  • If we are going to go on Splash Mountain, we need to drop these shopping bags off to the car. Then we can do more shopping later in the day! Cool!

  • I so totally want to go get a good seat for the Tencennial Parade!
