Disney Vacation-Day 1!

Day 1 of our WONDERFUL vacation started off at Chef Mickeys!  What a fun way to start the day.  There, we ate breakfast (topped with Mickey Mouse waffles!) and met our favorite disney characters for the 1st time!  It was so neat!  I loved watching all of the kids faces when they came around to our table.  Maddy was REALLY excited to see them and she thought they needed to stay by her and pay attention to her the whole time.  ;)  Her favorite was "Mickey Minnie Mouse"  aka:  Minnie Mouse!  Mason didn't know what to think at first, but was excited to see them as they came around.  I loved watching Grace as well.  That little girl sported a huge smile the entire trip!  Love it! 
The girls in their matching dresses patiently (or for Maddys sake, NOT so patiently) waiting to eat!


Minnie was the 1st character to come over!

Kisses for Goofy!

The gang!

Adorable, huh?

Love these kiddos!



Our next stop:  Disneys Magic Kingdom!

I can honestly say that this place is the most magical place on earth!  I could hardly wait to get in there and to be honest almost cried when we were leaving.   I love the music, parades, atmosphere, food, shopping, fireworks and most importantly the smiles on everyones faces (the women and kids, anyways.  ha!)  Its so fun to see kids so excited about seeing a princess, or Mickey Mouse.  I love the make-believe in all of it.   If I was single and kid-less, you would probably find me working there after this trip!  Seriously..... :)   Or, maybe I can talk Chris into quitting his job-I'm sure there is a need for someone to play Goofy! 

 
One of my favorite pictures!  I love this statue. 

The girls loved the street party!  It was really cool!

Mason could hardly believe his eyes!  He was so excited!

One of Masons favorite rides.  He was so funny though, everytime we got onto a ride he would say:  "I want to go home" or "Let's get in the stroller"  he would never say he was scared.  Ha!  He was a champ and loved them all!



Gorgeous, huh? 

One of the best memories was the fireworks show over the castle.  It was so insanely awesome.  Tinker belle even zip-lined from the top of the castle to the ground to get things started.  We were right under her, and it brought back memories from when I was a little girl.  At that time, they just had a little light fly down-but I just knew that it was really her.  I couldn't wait to see it again and was suprised to see the "real" tinkerbelle fly down.  Awesome!  Awesome trip, Awesome memories!  I'm already starting to save to go back in a couple of years.  Already, can hardly wait!
