I spent the long ride home in rush hour wondering if I was making the right decisions for my life. It just wasn&#8217;t a good day. But, when I walked in the door to my house, the most coveted item I can think of was waiting with my mail&#8230; a box of Disney magic.<\/p>\n<p>No, Tinker Bell didn&#8217;t fly open when I slit open the box, but it was the next best thing&#8230; my order from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.disneystore.com\" target=\"_blank\">DisneyStore.com<\/a>. \ud83d\ude42  Five wonderful boxes of Vinylmation and a wonderful new Christmas ornament. It was the best remedy for a bad day. Here&#8217;s my secret when I need to bring a little Disneyland magic home &#8211; pull a little money from my emergency Disney magic fund and order a handful of Vinylmation from the site&#8230; then, I don&#8217;t let myself open them all at once. The key is to spread them out over a week or so, prolonging the magic.<\/p>\n<p>While this may be a slightly more pricey way to bring home the magic, it is worth the occasional splurge. \ud83d\ude42 There is something particularly magical about opening up those blind boxes and discovering the treasure inside.
