Disney, Disney, Disney….(#3)

Yes, I believe this trip is going to be 4 posts! It was that much fun and we took that many pictures!

Day #2 at Disney World included Hollywood Studios, Epcot and a 5K run and scavenger hunt in Animal Kingdom.

 

Day 2-Now Summer fully understands that we are in Disney World and she can’t wait to meet more characters and ride on some rides! Here are Mom, Lis, Hadley and Summer all walking in together.

First Stop-Playhouse Disney (Disney Jr) breakfast! We got to meet June from “Little Einstein's” and Jake from “The Never land Pirates”. Tucker really liked Jake.

We also got to meet Handy Manny. Summer had a fun time with him.

Tucker with his matching hat to his outfit. A Disney photographer was having tom and Joe do silly things for her pictures.

Chip and Dale

The girls were picked to welcome everyone to “The Little Mermaid” show. Here they are practicing their lines. They each got a certificate that Ariel signed for welcoming everyone. It was really sweet!

Time to meet more princesses in Norway in Epcot! Summer got to meet Cinderella for the 3rd time. Mulan was a first.

Hadley, Summer and Pops all liked Snow White. Pops had a shirt on with Grumpy on it so we thought it would be good for him to pose with Snow White.

Ariel is my favorite princess and I was very excited to meet her in her princess dress. I have only gotten to meet her in her Grotto with her tail.

I had my face painted to get ready for the 5K Tom and I were running that night in Animal Kingdom.

Here we are waiting for the Expedition Everest 5K to start in Animal Kingdom. We didn’t even start running until 10:30 pm. Our friends Carrie and Brett told us about it and we couldn’t believe it was happening during our trip we had already planned. We were able to meet up with them and hang out before and after the run. After the 5K we immediately did a scavenger hunt that was a part of the event. It was a great event and very well done. Disney does it all right!

More Disney….

May 4th

Part 2: More Magic Kingdom! It’s Mouse time…..

Our wonderful day continued with meeting some very special mice and princesses! Then a parade, Tinker Bell and fireworks! One very full first day in Disney World! The kids did great and adults kept up as well! :)

Summer had just turned 3 and Tucker was 7 months in these pictures. 3 months later Tucker has really changed so I thought I should mention that.

 

A magical Disney moment….meeting Mickey and Minnie Mouse!

Melissa and Hadley enjoyed meeting Mickey and Minnie as well!

Joe, Kelly and Hadley with Mickey and Minnie

Sleeping Beauty/Princess Aurora

Belle really liked Summer’s light up shoes!

Cinderella

Cousins and best friends!

Pluto was fun!

Dinner with all the characters from Cinderella. First we met Prince Charming. He told us to make sure we went to Cinderella’s castle later to see the fireworks he had planned for her.

Melissa and Prince Charming and Summer, Tucker and I with Cinderella. She made Tucker shy!

The Evil Stepmother.

Anastasia and Drizella…Cinderella’s stepsisters.

Tucker loved grabbing the stepsisters dresses. Anastasia didn’t mind but Drizella didn’t like baby drool. :) Summer and Drizella had similar hair.

Tucker enjoyed his foot during the parade and Summer watched from Daddy’s shoulders for a while.

After the parade we went to meet Terence and Tinker Bell before Tinker Bell had to fly from the castle to start the fireworks.

Summer and Hadley loved meeting Tink and then seeing her during the firework show. What a great first day in Disney!!
