If you are going to attend this event I would also suggest you make time and visit D23 Presents: Treasures of the Walt Disney Archives, also currently at the museum. This exhibit is a wonderful walk though Walt Disney life from his birth here in Chicago, to walking down Main Street at Disneyland or Walt Disney World to Mary Poppins.  I cannot suggest see this enough! Both myself and Disney Gal Kelly have seen the exhibit and are going to see again we are there on February 16th to see Marty Sklar.  Check out the information for the Treasures of the Walt Disney Archives at http://www.msichicago.org/whats-here/exhibits/treasures-of-the-walt-disney-archives/

She is the mother to two sons in the military and their wives. She has several furry grandchildren and cherishes how her husband reacts when he hears "Welcome Home".
