Epcot fireworks from our balcony!!

We were so lucky and got our hotel room at the Dolphin upgraded to a balcony room with a perfect view of the Epcot ball and fireworks.  Each night at 9pm the fireworks went off and if we were in the room we were stationed right on the balcony so we did not miss a thing!

Tinker Bell & Periwinkle!

 This was the first time I got to meet Tinker Bell and I was so excited.  To my surprise I also got to meet the brand new fairy Periwinkle.  She will be introduced in the new Fairy DVD movie coming out this October...I can't wait to get it!  Periwinkle was so cool.  She talked to me for a long time and also showed me how to pose just like a fairy!

Pascal!

With the money I made at the garage sale from selling lemonade, brownies and cookies I picked out Pascal!  He was the first souvenir of the trip.  Watch out Nama...I bought him so we could play Princess Rapunzel and Flynn Rider better!!

Princess Tiana

Last year I never got to meet Princess Tiana because we could not find her.  Well, we are getting better at knowing the park and doing research so she was easy to find this year.  We waited in a bit of a line but we played..then I got to meet her and she was so pretty and nice!

Princess Merida!

I was very excited to meet the newest Disney Princess...Merida!  We had to wait awhile, but not too long.  Once we got in her area it was really neat.  I got to color a picture of her and then meet her!  She was so nice and we talked for awhile.  She also danced with me.  She said we had the same hair, just different colors.  I love her!

Cinderella's Castle!

We always have to get a picture with the castle in the background!

First Princesses!

Next stop...Princesses!  I got to meet Rapunzel for the first time (last year I never met her because she was new and her lines were hours long).  This year I met her many times and loved each and every one.  I also got to meet Belle...I love her dress!

Each time I would meet a character I would get all prepared.  I would have my autograph book ready and turned to a blank page, I would start shuffling my feet and then when it was my turn I would take a deep breath and click my pen...all ready for my favorite characters.  This was something I repeated over 55 times and each time it was just as exciting!  I love meeting characters!

Mickey & Minnie

The first thing we did when we arrived at the magic Kingdom was meet characters.  I was able to choose between Princesses or Mickey & Minnie and I choose the mice!!  I was really excited to meet Minnie because I had on a Minnie skirt I wanted her to see!

Anticipation...

The anticipation always rises on the bus ride to the Magic Kingdom.  We are so excited we can hardly wait!

Downtown Disney

Here we are our first night at Downtown Disney...all smiles!

Packed and ready to go!

Our flight left last Saturday afternoon.  It was nice to have an afternoon flight because you don't have to wake up too early.  We got to Orlando in time for dinner and spent a fun night at the Hilton at Downtown Disney (where we stayed last year).  We even got to go to Downtown Disney to look around.  It was a fun night...and even more fun when we woke up the next morning because it was Magic Kingdom time!

Love,

Disney World!

We had a WONDERFUL trip to Disney World!  We spent a week at the world and were lucky enough to go to the parks for 6 days!  We played, rode rides, met tons of characters (I got 57 autographs), ate lots of yummy food, walked a ton, swam, shopped and had an AWESOME time! 

September was the perfect time of year to go as it was not crowded and the weather was decent (it did rain a bit though, but not too bad).  Because we went in the fall we got to go to Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween party and see the Magic Kingdom all decorated for Halloween...really cool!

We stayed at the Dolphin resort and it was beautiful!  It was right near Epcot and Hollywood Studios and we got to take a boat ride to those parks.  We took the Disney bus to Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom!

We are definitely a Disney family and LOVE every minute of the fun!

I will post a bunch of posts with the details!

I can't wait until I go back...crossing my fingers it will be when I am 5!
Love,
Kate
