We finally made it to the princess castle!! They have been waiting since January and it was so exciting to get on the boat to take us to Magic Kingdom. Quite honestly, this morning we had some emotional ladies (exhausted from all the hype) but they seemed to brush it off once we got going.
This picture captured Chloe's excitement as she first sees the castle! Notice Harper's hands over his ears - she was so loud yelling about the princess castle. And Carly was in a Carly mood, so there was no expressions. She did lighten up and the 2
nd day at Magic Kingdom she had a warmer welcome for the first sight of the castle. Oh well, waited for 5 months to see this expression, at least Chloe gave it to me!
We made it!! We are on Main street right in front of the castle. (Notice the seating arrangement of the stoller. This is how we made it through the long trecks. Harper in front, Finley in the back, Carly on top, and me carrying Chloe while Daddy pushed the buggy - you see, 4 kids is a piece of cake!) It was really windy, overcast, and hot this day. We were thankful for the clouds! We tried watching the little play that was going on when we walked up, but as soon as the let off some fireworks, the girls were done and ready to go onto something else. So we proceeded into Magic Kingdom and came across
story time with Belle. They watched a few minutes and then when they had a dad from the audience be the Beast and he growled, they were done as well and were ready to go!! I then decided I needed to break the tension and get them on a successful ride - Cinderella's Carousel! Eureka! It worked. We were all smiles after that. Then Matt got them an ice cream to cool them off, but gave it to them in the hot sun on the ground. Needless to say, the rest of the pictures they look horrible because they were covered in ice cream and cheesy poofs. We then took them all on It's a Small World. This was wonderful. Air Conditioned, relaxing, and we could all sit together. We also rode the Pooh Bear ride and Harper and I rode the Dumbo ride. We also rode the train that went around all of Magic Kingdom. Harper had a big smile
every time the train tooted its horn. At 3:00 we saw the parade. They LOVED this and waved the entire time to everyone they saw. The main
highlight was Ariel. Chloe was wearing her Ariel dress and the float came by with her on it. She was waving to everyone, but when she saw Chloe in her dress, Ariel started smiling and waving excitedly. OH BOY!! That made her vacation!! "Ariel waved to me!" Priceless!
We then went and met Sleeping Beauty. The girls each brought a costume so they could wear them to see the princesses. They were so excited to see them. They had such big smiles and were ready to talk to them. They answered all the questions they had for them. I loved watching their excitement.
With Cinderella!
Finley too!
On the Pooh Bear Ride
Dwindling energy! But we wanted to make sure we at least got one picture of them.
Harper was so excited to ride these race cars. Carly drove one round with Dad and Banks. Then Chloe took the boys for a lap.
Then it was time for Daddy and his girls. Can you believe that in 11 years (well I guess 10 for permits) we will be taking these type of pictures in a real vehicle! Scary!!
On the way back to the car! Chloe was done. We stayed from about 10 to 6:30 this day. It was exhausting, but the girls managed it pretty well. There were very dramatic of course getting to the car!!
Carly and her serious look. She was concentrating so hard to be tough but exhaustion was setting in fast!
