We had so much fun attending the Christopher Robin red carpet premiere at the Walt Disney Studios (in Burbank) with Disneys D23. I love being able to visit the studios, it always feels like such an exceptional experience...probably because it is, haha.
We really loved this movie. It has such a beautiful message of taking the time to slow down and enjoy the life around you. Family, friends and more of the things you really enjoy doing. Life gets so busy and crowded with work and things we need to get done, but this film reminds us also to make time to laugh, play, travel and enjoy making memories with those we love. That is where our pure joy and meaning in life comes from. : )
How cute are the characters lounging after working hard in the movie ; )
They had sandwiches cookies, chips and drinks for us before things got started. There was also the cutest little cart that had different flavored honey samples for us all to try.
After we had our sandwiches, we headed over to the new Sherman Brothers soundstage that was just at the end of the carpet to see the dedication. The Disneyland band played a few of the Sherman Brothers most recognizable songs. That was amazing to hear live. They then had a few speakers, one of which was Richard Sherman himself. You can tell he's just the most genuine, kind-hearted man. I can't believe how much talent those brothers have. We owe so many of our childhood songs to them. Getting to be a part of that dedication was something we will never forget.
Below are some of the cast and celebrities we saw at the event. First is Richard Sherman giving his speech, then Jim Cummings (voice of Pooh and Tigger), Brad Garrett (voice of Eeyore), Then John Stamos, Teddi Meloncamp (one of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills), Ewan McGregor (Christopher Robin), Kylie Richards (another Real Housewives of BH), Haley Atwood (Christopher Robins wife and Agent Carter) and then Jim Cummings again. After he signed by Winnie the Pooh fan. He also did the Winnie the Pooh voice for us, and it was crazy to hear that live from him! Such a cool experience!! What talent.
After the carpet, they handed out Mickey ice creams, my absolute favorite treat from the parks! Such a dream : )
He's my favorite star! ; )
