The last two characters we met at the Magic Kingdom were Stitch and Buzz Lightyear.

Stitch is one of Adam’s favorites because of the Elvis music they play in his movie.

I was feeding Annie, so the two of us missed out on meeting Buzz.

Dave was all about getting a picture with the space ranger though.

And each of the kids wanted individual shots with him as well.

They also all wanted more ice cream.

So that’s what they got.

Aladdin and Peter Pan were two of the “must see” characters on Adam’s list. So that’s exactly what we did.

Peter Pan was pretty funny. Maggie went right up to him and said, “I’m a little bit sassy, just like Tinker Bell.”

He really liked that the autograph card had his picture on it.

We almost didn’t stop in to see Ariel. The wait times were really long all day. We finally had come to terms with spending 35 minutes in line and as we were going in, one of the employees said that the sign was wrong. It was only a ten minute wait.

This is one of my favorite photos from our trip. I am so glad Dave had us stop for this photographer for another shot with the castle.

Adam asked the photographer if she could do any fun photos and this is the result.

I love it.

I took Maggie to get her pictures done yesterday. Can you believe this little lady will be five next week? I can’t.

She did such a good job working with the photographer. I love all of the photos we got. I think one of my favorites from yesterday though, was the one I took against the side of the building as we were leaving.

Adam had a soccer game tonight. I debated on just sending Dave and staying home with the other three kids, but we toughed it out and I’m so glad we did.

We camped out in the back of the van. It kept us mostly dry and gave us front row seats for Adam’s two goals!! Adam was the goalie during the first two quarters and did an incredible job. That kid was on fire. He had a really fantastic game. I managed to catch his first goal on video (barely), but here it is!

His second goal was even more impressive, I wish I’d been recording for that one.

Another thing on our “must do” list was meeting Mickey at Magic Kingdom.

Of course Adam wanted a picture of just him with his main mouse.

Adam has been Mickey’s number one fan ever since he was a baby. He still has the Mickey he got when he was one, and sleeps with him every night. He even made the trip to Florida with us.

We told Adam, Luke, and Maggie they could each get a hat or pair of ears while we were at Disney World.

Luke knew right away that he wanted a Goofy hat and so we got it for him that morning before we even went into the park.

It was one of the best decisions that we made that trip. Luke wore it the rest of the trip and it’s even been to school as his show-and-tell already.

It took Adam and Maggie a bit longer to decide. Adam knew he wanted a pair of Mickey Mouse ears, but couldn’t decide between sorcerer Mickey or a pair that looked like Spiderman. He went with the sorcerer ones and they were perfect for him.

Maggie wanted a hat that looked like Pluto, then a Minnie Mouse baseball hat, but then she saw these pink glittery, princess, butterfly ears. It’s like they were made for her.

They each picked the perfect hat/ears for themselves and they were so excited to wear them around the parks.

After breakfast, and in between rides, we met with some of the princesses.

Annie really turned on the charm for the photographers. I love this picture of her with Cinderella.

The boys were good sports about the time we spent in line to see them. The princesses did a great job interacting with the kids and so I know they enjoyed meeting them too.

Rapunzel was one of my favorites, she was pretty funny. Maggie showed off her long braid.

One of the rides we wanted to be sure to go on at Magic Kingdom was the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train. And by we, I mean Dave, Adam, Luke, and Maggie. I’m not a big fan of roller coasters.

As you can see, the kids had mixed reactions.

Luke thought it was awesome. Adam and Maggie disagreed.

We started the next morning bright and early. We were on the bus to leave the hotel at 6:45 am to get to our 8 o’clock breakfast reservations with Winnie-the-Pooh and his friends.

Adam saw the ice cream machine and asked if he could have some. He had already eaten eggs and some waffles shaped like Mickey Mouse, so we said yes. I mean, if you can’t have ice cream for breakfast at Disney World, where can you?

Maggie’s current favorite princess is Jasmine, so we knew we wanted to stop in to see her at Epcot. I had picked up a Jasmine costume after Halloween last fall (for $3.50, hooray for 90% off clearance at Target). This was before we planned our trip and before I even knew she was Maggie’s favorite princess. It was pretty much meant to be.

Adam was pretty excited about the Mickey shaped food.

We also got to visit Elsa and Anna at Epcot. I brought costumes for Maggie Elsa and Annie to wear for that meeting too. Someone (Dave) may have thought I was a bit nuts for having the girls change outfits like Cher in concert, but it is a decision I stand behind 100%.

Seriously, how cute is this? 

Maggie pulled just one of her braids over her shoulder when she met Elsa, so their hair could match. When we were with Anna, she showed both braids.

So stinkin’ adorable. I can’t stand it.

Epcot is definitely on our list to go back to again. We had so much fun there!
