Our house sold very fast last fall and we had three weeks to vacate, so we are renting out church's vacant parsonage (pastor has own digs), so we had to so some mass downsizing and fast. I read a book last spring that explained how to release things that mean something but you have no room for. Take a picture and when you look at it you will still have the same feelings. It's true and it does work. I have been able to let go of many things but not the memories that were attached.
Now I didn't throw everything away. I have my teapot and clock and hope to add a trivet for the pot this time. I have Disney bedroom where all the stuffed animals stay along with lithographs. My DH's crystal wizard Mickey is in the livingroom with his jade dragons. Posters and such still are in offices and spare rooms.
It's a balance.

Holy card collection batman! Wow, that's quite the collection for sure! Love all the KTTK cards and the stack of MagicBands!
I think for your next trip, you should see how many MagicBands you can wear on one arm!
We would have quite a few on each arm for sure. We will both have 3 more Magic Bands before our next trip. Although we are staying at BLT we decided to book a night at the Yacht Club for our arrival night. And, we just ordered our AP Magic Bands.
But....if they do away with the cards our collection will no longer be growing.

That just means they'll be truly collectors items!
Oops, my husband pointed out the tshirts, the jewelry, and the occasional pin. I don't buy to trade but to note something we did. LOL we have pins from all the rides that broke while we were on them during the last trip. They make me laugh.
Here is our family on Splash Mountain (only pic we ever bought) because we were stuck on the incline for about 5-10 minutes as they kept saying, "Please remain in your seats." (Our son pointed out we would have to do a Hawaiian dive to get off). When the ride resumed, the sound track was completely off and echoing on top of it. So we posed for this classic.

I figured that was your family. What a hoot.
I need to organize all my stuff from past trips. Every once in a while I'll be looking for something and find a KTTW card or a park map.
Nice job!
Love it!
