Disney Trip

We just got back from our third Disney vacation with the girls.  We had a great time!  The crowds were really low and there was very little wait for anything.  I love being able to just jump on every ride!  The weather was ok - it was really hot the first day, then rained off and on the rest of the week.  It didn't stop us though...we still got to do everything that we wanted to do and more!  

Day 1 was Epcot.  We visited lots of characters.  Elle LOVED them this time!  She came running up to all of them and gave BIG hugs.  

We had a late lunch with the princesses, which was great!  Elle was SO into it this time.  She even tackled Snow White on her way to another table.  The girls just love meeting the princesses!  


We even got to meet Duffy - the Disney bear.  The girls were beyond thrilled!  


Day 2 was Magic Kingdom.  We got there when they opened and rode ride after ride with no wait.  We got to visit part of the new Fantasyland - new Dumbo and a new Goofy roller coaster.  The girls LOVED the roller coaster.  We even rode it 2 times in a row!


We got to see Aladdin and Jasmine this time.  Jasmine even gave the girls kisses!


Balloons are always a hit!



Day 3 was Animal Kingdom.  We enjoyed the Nemo and Lion King shows (well, Scarlett really did...Elle pitched it).  The safari is really cool as well.  Scarlett's favorite was riding the Everest roller coaster with Daddy.  


Day 4 was Hollywood Studios.  The girls loved the Ariel, Belle, and Disney Junior shows.  Scarlett and Cameron rode the Star Wars ride which excites both of them!  We had lunch at a cool little 50's cafe.  It was our shorter day, so we went to Downtown Disney from the park.  The girls both got their souvenirs (Elle got Dumbo and Scarlett got Lady) and we ate dinner at Fulton's Crab House (delicious!).  

Day 5 we went back to Magic Kingdom.  We ran straight to Merida after the gate opened.  The girls were so thrilled to get to meet her!  


They even had a practice bow and arrow set up.  Scarlett got a bullseye! She wants to be Merida when she grows up now because she's REALLY good at the bow and arrow.  


We rode a few more rides that we had missed the first day and many more for a second time, had a good lunch at Liberty Tree Tavern, had one last ice cream, and called it a day early (at 3).  

We had a fantastic trip and are thoroughly exhausted!  See all the pictures HERE
