Oh my gosh, that was delightful from beginning to end!

I loved how it starts, with this warm Sunday routine, and Teddy being absolutely adorable. And the gentle teasing between Harry and Draco tells me so much about how in love and happy they are. *feels warm all over* :)

And then teasing Teddy some more about the birthdays happening every year! LOL I think everybody has tried to pull that one! LOL

I loved the trip! Teddy being excited and Draco being reluctantly excited as well.

I love that I felt there, in the main streets and you better believe I believe there's a magical side of it! LOL

And man, the matching hat and shirts. DIES! When I saw there was art of that very scene I made a happy dance because it's so utterly perfect. JUST LOOK AT THEM! <333 I love that Harry's wearing shorts and Draco more formal with green trousers and the balloon and just, Gah, everything about that art is warm and cute and sweet and all things fluffy. *happiest sigh*

This was lovely, all over it! Thank you! <3333

This story was so cute ♥ It put a smile on my face, and was a delight to read.

The artwork was adorable, too. I love the matching hats and t-shirts!

I love it, I love it, I LOVE IT! Sometimes you're just in the mood for a good ol domestic Drarry raising Teddy. And tonight was the night. This is just too perfect. I felt like I was at Disney with them and I'm totally infatuation with the idea there are magical parts to the park too. Like, there totally are!! ;)

The art is just the perfect complementary piece. They are just the most adorable family, aren't they?!?

So extremely precious, this story. From start to finish it was absolutely adorable and I loved Teddy throughout it. When Harry called him "Teddy Bear" I lost it. I mean, baw, so ridiculous and sweet all at once. Uggghh. :D They're such a dorky, wonderful, fun family.

I liked the Portkey details of where and how that worked, and the time travel question was so cute, and totally valid.

The artwork is crazy amazing too!

Oh, man, it was adorable! When I was a kid I never wanted to go to Disneyland - I actually never aknowledge its existence until later in my life - but I sure want to go now that I am an adult! I loved it, how they were having fun and being together with matching shirts and all xD I loved the fic, I loved the art ughhhhh

I loved all! Thank you!

Yay, I'm so glad you enjoyed it, darling!! I loved how it starts, with this warm Sunday routine, and Teddy being absolutely adorable. And the gentle teasing between Harry and Draco tells me so much about how in love and happy they are. *feels warm all over* :) Aww, I'm so happy you enjoyed their domesticity and the family feels between them! :D

I'm also really happy that you felt like you were there, I was there last fall for food + wine festival so I had a lot of it still fresh in my head and I really wanted people to feel like they could picture themselves there or smell the fresh waffle cones or popcorn, and that there was a magical side to the park. That part was really fun to play with to figure out where the best places to integrate and have secret wizarding sections would be.

Eeeeeeeeeee, I'm so pleased you enjoyed the art! I actually drew that first and then wrote the story around it. I had a lot of fun working on it! ♥ Thank you for your lovely comment! *hug*

Haha, I totally felt the same! I went last year for food + wine festival and I can tell you that it's way more fun as an adult because of day drinking ;)

Thank you, I'm so happy you enjoyed the story + the art! :D
