What about their themes?

I would vote for Year of a Million Dreams! We did not get a huge prize, but we were "Dreamed" with lanyards and pins. To three newbies, this is what started us on Pin Trading.

We really enjoyed seeing people get dreamed and reading about the dreams on here. When we were dreamed it was awesome!! It was a way to make guests feel extra speacial

Great idea!!

Aw, crummy buttons. I knew I was bound to miss something, and there it is! Yes, I should have included the themes, there sure were a lot of them. It was also neat to have the Castle Suite built for the YOMD.

I went with the purchase of Pixar. It brought talent back into the fold and strentgthened the creative core of the organization.

Me too - I think overall it's made a huge difference, among the presence of Pixar in the parks, as well as the help Pixar has been giving Disney with their animated movies.

I voted for Pixar as well, but I think it's worth mentioning all of the resorts rooms that were added to WDW, it really changed the Florida property.

I would have to agree with that, and continue to pray that it will offset the ultimate idiocy of destroying Disney Animation! I note here for the record, that when Dizzy Corp did destroy its heart and soul, it was Pixar that bought all the 2D animation equiptment!

Well, if you moved out of Weymouth--I hope you moved somewhere warm--such snow today!
