Oh...that's so sad. I'm such a huge Disney fan. Pooh Bear is my very favorite. Of course, I love Tink too! When we were in Disney last year, my husband bought me the best Tinker Bell purse!!

ReplyDeleteI have lots of Disney favs, it hard to pick just one. But I really like the older Disney films, like Bambi, Sleeping Beauty and Snow White.
