Disney Day Four

The highlight of our last day at Disney World was meeting the princesses at Epcot. Aubrey was not scared of them like she was the other characters and walked right up to Sleeping Beauty and Belle on her own.

Here she is waiting in line to meet Snow White.

Waiting for Sleeping Beauty to come back from her break.

Aubrey loved Sleeping Beauty.

Aubrey is still talking about how Sleeping Beauty kissed her on her forehead.

We also met Marie from the Aristocats. She was as pretty as a princess.

As we were waiting in line to meet Belle, I asked Aubrey if she wanted to take a picture with the Beast, too, and she said, "Beast, walk away!" (That is what she's taught at school to say when someone is bothering her.) She kept repeating it over and over in line. I'm pretty sure when we walked up and I asked Belle if it was ok for just her to be in the picture, Aubrey told the Beast to walk away.

We had such a fun trip. Aubrey may not remember everything she did or saw, but she will see the pictures and know about it through our stories and her own. We watched Snow White this weekend, and she said "I saw Snow White at Disney World". There was so much we didn't do, but there was also so much we did do and saw in our short 4 days there. It definitely won't be our last visist there, and we can't wait to go back again one day!

Disney Day Three - Part 2

That afternoon, we met up with Daddy at the hotel, took a short nap, and headed back to Magic Kingdom to see the castle light up and the parade and fireworks. Since Matt missed It's a Small World in the morning, we took him on it again that evening. Aubrey kept pointing and saying "Look, Daddy!", and last week I heard her singing the song.

Stay tuned for Day 4 - Aubrey meets the princesses!

Disney Day Three - Part 1

On our 3rd day at Disney World, we finally made it to the Magic Kingdom! We woke up to a pretty foggy morning. We couldn't even see Cinderella's castle from Main Street. Matt and Pops enjoyed a round of golf.

Aubrey got some Minnie ears.

Then, Aubrey, Nana, and I had breakfast with our friends from Winnie the Pooh. Aubrey enjoyed the Mickey shaped waffles and her birthday cupcake (especially the sprinkles), but wasn't too excited when the characters got close. That's ok, Nana and I were excited to see them!

The rest of the morning at Magic Kingdom, we went on some rides (It's a Small World, Winnie the Pooh), rode the train around the whole park, explored Mickey's house and Minnie's house, and even found Pooh's honey tree.

Disney Day Two - Part 2

The rest of Day 2 we rode on a safari, took a train ride, saw lots of animals, and met some more friends at Animal Kingdom. Then we headed to Epcot for the evening to ride a few rides.

On our way to the Safari, we saw the Vine Lady...

Aubrey liked the gorillas. She immediately recognized them from her book "Goodnight Gorilla".

Waiting for the train...

We found Minnie Mouse...

...and Mickey!

We made it to Epcot, where we got to ride Spaceship Earth and Finding Nemo.

Disney Day Two - Part 1

We started Day 2 at the Animal Kingdom. In the morning, we saw a bird show, rode some rides, saw the Bug's Life show, and even met some new friends.

While Nana and Matt rode Mt. Everest...

...Aubrey and I rode a dinosaur ride.

After riding, we saw Goofy and Pluto walking down the street, so we waited in line to meet them.

Then we found Pooh and some of his friends...

Nana and Pops liked Eyeore....

Aubrey wasn't too sure about him!
