Our Trip to Disney World
Our trip to Disney World was incredible...definitely "a dream come true" for the girls!! It was so much fun watching their faces light up!! Plus, a great time with our parents and Kelly. We are so thankful to our parents for taking us on such a great vacation!

We stayed at the beautiful Contemporary Resort...our patio overlooked the Cinderella Castle...this is the girls looking at it the morning we were headed out to Disney! It was so cool to be able to sit on our patio and watch the fireworks at night, too!
Maggie with Mary Poppins.

Chip and Dale....the first characters we saw when we arrived at the Magic Kingdom.
Rob and I on the Monorail.

Aunt Kelly, PaPa and the girls on the teacups.





On the Buzz Lightyear ride.

Maggie and Princess Aurora (Sleeping Beauty)...you had to wait about 30 minutes to see any of the characters...CRAZY!!

Maggie and Cinderella.
We had dinner at the Crystal Palace restaurant one night...the food was awesome, and the Pooh characters came around to the table. The kids also got to participate in a "parade" around the restaurant with the characters.

Waiting to get on the Dumbo ride.


What a cute family....if you're wondering why Maggie is so dressed up, she went to the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique with her Grandma Shell. They do their hair (even putting extentions in), make-up, nails, dress, shoes, etc. She wore this Tinkerbell outfit for almost three days. We couldn't get her out of it. The best part about it, was that the Disney staff were told to greet any girls who were from the Boutique with their names....everywhere she went, the staff said, "Hello, Tinkerbell." She kept saying to me, "Mommy, they recognize me!" We even had a worker come to her with "Mickey Mouse's Autograph Book" saying that Mickey wanted her autograph for his book...This is the guy getting Maggie's autograph for "Mickey Mouse's Autograph Book." So cute. She felt so important.
The girls in the double stroller they rode around in all day.





Madeline was so cute with all the characters...she just had to "feel" them...all over!!! She squeezed their noses, pulled their whiskers, and petted their fur.

This is another little girl that Maggie met that was waiting to go into the Princess Storybook Dinner. They danced all over the courtyard...they were so cute. Maggie met so many "new friends" on our trip. It was so interesting watching her "communicate" with a little girl from Italy who couldn't speak English, she even learned how to say Goodbye in Italian from her. She also met a couple of girls from China. It was fun showing her where they lived on the map...when I showed her where her friend from Italy lived, she said, "Oh, look, she lives right across the river from us!"
Madeline's kiss from a Princess.
The girls with all of the Princesses that were at the Princess Dinner.

This is Alice in Wonderland (the girls weren't so sure about her!)
Waiting for the fireworks one night...
Every night, the girls fell asleep right away...I just had to take this picture of one of our "sleeping angels."

    What a fantastic vacation! Was Maggie able to go on a lot of the rides? We are thinking of going in a couple of years, and so I'm just trying to decide whether it would be worth it with Andy. Both girls certainly seemed to be having a blast.

    What great pictures!
    Don just took me for the first time three summers ago and I felt just like your little girls. I wanted to get my pictures with any and all the characters if I could. It was like I went back in time and became a little girl all over again. It is quite an experience! I'm glad you guys got to enjoy some family time, especially after a very busy summer!

    I had a smile on my face the whole time I looked at this post! It looks like you hit all the right spots at the "happiest place on earth" :) I LOVE the bibbity-bobbity boutique idea--- how special! We can't wait to get down there one day.
