As an Orlando resident, Wendy loves having Disney World in her “backyard.” When she’s not at Disney World (or writing about her adventures there), she loves reading, baking, and running… and spending more time than she probably should on Pinterest.

Ears to You! The Wonderful World of Mickey Mouse Ear Hats

Posted on February 12, 2015May 5, 2022
