Make-A-Wish Massachusetts & RI made Steve’s dream trip come true! Stevie wished to go meet Judy and Nick from Zootopia, Woody, Buzz, and the Minions, and also have ice cream!! We want to thank Make-A-Wish, Delta Air Lines , Give Kids The World Village , Walt Disney World , and Universal for the most amazing trip.
From start to finish this trip was more than we could have imagined. We received the warmest welcome and had the best experience with Delta. They helped us through security, Steve got a birthday announcement in the Delta Lounge and some awesome Delta gifts. They also let him meet the pilots and check out the cockpit before the flight!
We stayed at Give Kids The World which was the most incredible place. It is basically a theme park resort! Stevie absolutely loved the carousel, unlimited ice cream, mini golf, model trains, arcade, and all the amenities it had to offer. He got to partake in a touching star ceremony which will be placed with the thousands of kids who have visited before him. We also met many wonderful volunteers that pour so much love into the village and make this place extra special.
We spent five days going to Disney and Universal parks. He got to meet all his favorite characters, ride so many rollercoasters - he was even able to ride ratatouille 5 times in a row which was a highlight! We met some amazing people on this trip and they went out of their way to make Stevie feel like a VIP. Mickey’s Not so Scary Halloween Party was so much fun and we dressed up as Toy Story and got what seems like 10 pounds of candy!!!
This trip was so special. Stevie was so happy and lived each day to the fullest. We stayed up way past bedtimes, met so many incredible people that deeply care, ate so many ice creams, rode almost every ride and got to meet all the characters he wanted. It truly was a once in a lifetime trip and we cannot thank everyone enough who made this possible!
