Disney, Take 2

Dinner at Cinderella's castle...with Snow White. Cinderella greets all of her guests downstairs, but all of the other princesses come to each table while you are eating. That's pretty exciting for 3 (well, almost 3 at the time) and 5 year old girls!
At the end of the dinner, everyone has to close their eyes and make a wish (except for moms...we take pictures).
Two happy girls and their Daddy.
We finished off the Cinderella's castle dining experience with the fireworks show. And yes, we saw the REAL Tinkerbell REALLY fly. (as real as it gets anyway)
The ride we rode the most: It's a Small World, of course! I remember riding it many years ago and thinking it was THE neatest thing. The girls agreed. They loved to imitate all of the different dances the dolls were doing. That cracked us and whoever happened to be riding behind us up. We thought this doll looked kind of like Bella.

One of our days was spent at Animal Kingdom. The girls got used to us grabbing maps at the entrance of each park. They requested their own maps here.
One of the fun things you can do at AK is climb on on (fake) rocks and POSE. Or maybe that's just a little girl thing! Can you tell they had been around princesses all week?

One thing we knew we wanted to see was the Lion King show. We got there early and asked a (nice older lady) worker if we were in the right spot. We must have looked hot and tired enough because she made us VIPs for the show. We got to sit in the front row and the girls got to be part of the show. That front row was a little bit loud, but neat!

They got to parade around the stage with little instruments. Lucy wasn't so sure about all of it, so one of the actresses grabbed her hand and off they went!

At Epcot...it was so pretty there!

But they did, of course, find a place where they could get wet.
The last day, but the first nap of the whole trip. She was TIRED. We tried having Bella wake her up, but Lucy just got even more comfy.
Trying to get the sword out of the stone. She convinced Brian to try too.
And finally, to top off the week, more sugar (cotton candy) this time to watch the big parade. Speaking of sugar (a spoonful that is), Mary Poppins walked by and shook their little hands during the parade.

Great trip, but it was SO good to be back at home. ALL of our girls reunited:

Jill-your girls are SOO cute and it's so neat to see how close they are as sisters, even sleeping on each other, reminds me when I did that to my older sisters! Robin
