Disney World--Day 2

We got an earlier start the second time we went to the Magic Kingdom and headed straight for Mickey Mouse.  Chris was nervous at first, but got excited when he saw Mickey and got to dance with him. Disney World really made this a special moment. What a great memory!

  It doesn't get any better than this! 

 His legs look like toothpicks coming out of his shorts. He was pretty sick prior to our trip and lost a full 2 pounds, so he looks pretty emaciated in these pictures.

He even got to inspect all of Mickey's accoutrements

Right after we saw Mickey, we stepped outside and Snow white was there.

Then we went over to the other side of the building and saw Tinkerbell.

Her little "home" is so fun!  She has lots of great big things. Chris liked the giant crayon the best and wanted to take it home.

 

 

 Next we headed over to Tomorrowland and went to the Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor, rode the People Mover, then got some lunch at Cosmic Ray's Starlight Café. Chris fell asleep again, so we left him with grandma and took the girls to Space Mountain. Shannon really didn't want to do it, but both girls got brave and did it! They didn't want to ride it again, though. I love that Leah's eyes are closed. She had them closed the whole time.

This picture always makes me laugh because Matt said he was laughing at the lady in front of him the whole ride because she was cursing in Spanish the entire time.

 We found Merida, and the girls got to have archery lessons.

Of course, we had to introduce the girls to the teacups. They loved it.

We went home for some dinner, then went back to the park that night to see the Electric Light Parade. On the tram from the parking lot to the ferry I turned around and saw this. I said, "Leah, what in the world are you doing?" She said, "Holding Nanny's hair on so that it doesn't blow off." (Nanny wears a hair piece) I laughed so hard!

 This was the view of the fireworks from the ferry. I love that the castle is purple!

The parade is exactly how I remembered it. They really haven't changed much since I was a kid.  They also did an amazing show projected on Cinderella's castle. It was beautiful!

Tinkerbell!

Naturally, Chris loved Mickey's train.

The girls had glow wands from their Aunt Heidi and this was the perfect night to use them. All of the people in the parade saw them and waved at them. They are the two on the right.
