Disney Trip - Day 5

Our last day at Magic Kingdom started at 9:00 am and ended at 11:00 pm!! It was one jammed packed day, but it was amazing. Temperatures were about 95 degrees, so it was quite toasty! But the great thing about Disney was that alot of the places where you wait are air conditioned. This vacation was so magical for our girls. I think they aged big time while we were there. They went from our babies to big girls!! I guess 5 is a big turning point in life - sad for Mommy!
We had to get their picture in front of the castle! They loved how big it was.

We had to go see the princesses again - it was the same ones, but they didn't care. They had to switch costumes anyways so Carly could have a turn in the wonderful Ariel costume.
Carly showed Cinderella her manicure and we had to explain why it was such a big deal. The one great thing about Disney World is they really make you feel like they care! The princesses spent lots of time with the kids and chatted with them. We didn't feel rushed at all! Cinderella was quite impressed with their accomplishment! I also love how they called the girls princess wherever we went. It made them feel so special.

Belle - again

This was Harper's highlight of the trip! He was so excited to see Tiger and Pooh. This is pretty much all he really cared about, so I am so glad we had the opportunity to meet them. Carly and Chloe did so well with all the characters (they used to cry every time they saw these things). They wouldn't get too close, but they got close enough for pictures.

Mickey and Minnie - Harper gave Mickey lots of hugs!
Carly finally got brave enough to attempt the tea cups. Chloe would not join in! Harper didn't care. After their successful run on them, Chloe decided she would try it out!

And she loved them and proceeded to ride several times. These two have a funny dynamic. Carly will go first and if she makes it out alright, then Chloe will follow suit. I guess that is a bonus to having a twin!!

Finley - hot, sweaty, tired, but a smiley little trooper! She is one amazing baby! Not many could handle the day she had and still be happy!
After the Buzz Lightyear ride, they saw him outside. They wanted to meet him. So we went to get in the line, they said it was ok, so we were excited to stand them at the exit spot and snap the picture! We didn't have to wait in the heat!

Here is Fawn from the Tinker Bell movie. They were a little hesitant here, because they didn't know the fairies (only princesses). But they thought it was pretty neat.

Tinker Bell was hilarious!! She was really loud and she was trying to get them to talk. They were very shy with her. Then she asked them who was older. Carly said she was. And she asked Chloe by how much. Then she said, "What were you doing in there? Sleeping in?" They thought it was so funny. Oh and when she asked them their names, they didn't answer at first. She said, "Are you Fluffy and you Fifi?" They started laughing so hard. They told her they had a sister named Fifi and then they told her their names. When it was time to snap pictures she yelled, "Cheese!!" So when you ask the girls about Tinker Bell, they will tell you she yells cheese really loud!
Finley waiting for the parade!

This is princess Tiana and her prince. Harper said he would only talk to little princesses so he told her to get down. Once she did, he left her hanging!! He wouldn't kiss her hand like he said he would if she got down!! Man, little heart breaker!! Notice one of the girls covering her ears - the fireworks at the castle went off, so they didn't like the noise!
The ladies with Princess Tiana and her Prince

Jungle Cruise. This was a little scary, but they were all brave. The lady kept yelling stuff and boy oh boy Carly was listening to every word. She yelled for everyone to get down, I looked over and Carly was down let me tell you! So cute!
The girls said they would ride Dumbo this day, but we were at the carpet ride and we coaxed them onto it. Chloe was very nervous, but it was all or nothing!! And of course, they all loved it!! We rode this several times since it was late there wasn't a line!!

The castle at dusk was beautiful!
It changed colors

And here is the main attraction: ARIEL!!! This was by far a major thing! The girls really wanted to hug her, but this was good enough. Matt and I were relieved that they got to see her. We felt like we let them down since they didn't get to meet her. This was at the spectro magic parade.

Getting ready for fireworks. They were not happy, but they were brave. Hands over ears and we just held them. It wasn't so bad and NO CRYING!! Yippee!!
And here is Harper!! He didn't make it through the parade or the fireworks. He was just way too tired!
