Mine is a set of salt and pepper shakers my mom bought the first time she brought me, I was 1. She kept them and gave them to me on my 21st birthday, still in the box. They are handpainted and have gold leaf accents. There is a carousel on the pepper shaker and the famous castle logo on the salt. Both are shaped like little bells. They are almost 35 years old, and like new. I have them displayed ina place of honor and are very prized.

Wow tough question, the one souvineer that I love the most would have to be my pin of the sign that is located above the bridge, just as you enter the park. The sign reads : Here You Leave Today And Enter The World Of Yesterday, Tomorrow And Fantasy. I have it stuck to my desk so that everytime I look up, it is the first thing I see. It always makes me smile - and wish I was in Disneyland! :) - blue

So hard to pick just one!! One of my favorites is my Castle from the Olszewski collection. Everytime I look at it, I fell like I'm right back in there. The attention to detail is awesome!

That's easy. My memories. I own very little Disney items, 2-3 shirts, 2-3 hats, some frames, and two attraction posters. I'm more of a fan of remembering my times there.

Oh, no wait!! That makes me thing of pictures. When I went to WDW, I just HAD to get a Disney themed photo album!

So, photo album it is!

Mine is a donald duck hat from when I was four. It has a big thick plastic bill and fuzzy stuff all over. My favorite indeed :)

Our photo's from our trips are my favorite souvineers. I also enjoy the photos we have purchased from splash and space mountain as they show us unpozed and in the moment.

I will take one and send it to you as soon as I get my laptop back. my friend is upgrading my laptop 4 me.

But if you cant wait its only found in the world of disney store I found it in the stuffed animal section where the bathrooms are located along the left wall as you face the stuffed animals. there is an office section that has the mouse and stpler and other desk type stuff.

This one is tough, but I can narrow it down to three:
I have a collection of cards from Shrunken Ned in Adventureland (love that he's on SR, of course!). Almost every time we go to DL we have to pay a visit Shrunken Ned. It's become kind of a tradition, although I must admit that I have been slipping in the past 2 or so years.

I also absolutely love my standard Mickey Mouse ears with "Daniel" across the back, because they're so perfect and timeless.

Last, my wife and I got the silhouettes done last year, and that's something that I really treasure because my mom and dad always had theirs up and one of my brother and I when we were really little. It's a nice family tradition that I was glad to continue on (and they're only like $10 including the nice frame!).

Where do you get those done at? I would love to have one done of my kids. My mom has one of herself from when she was a teenager.

They're done at the end of on Main Street, right next to the porch area (near the Kodak Photo Corner, of whatever it's called). They usually open about an hour after the park, so you can just relax on the bench while you're waiting for them to open.
The same woman (I forgot her name, but would be able to tell you when we get home, as we had her sign our silhouettes) has been doing it for 35+ years. There's a very good chance that she did both my baby and my grown up one. She's a joy to sit and talk with if they're not too busy and she's incredibly quick. She even got my classes and beard stubble into the silhouette!
