Disney Princess Day!

This day will take two posts since blogger will only let me post five pictures at once. I am going to try to get them in order ...

The day finally arrived! Melissa was so excited! I had made reservations for her and I to eat lunch at Cinderella's Castle. Nothing would do but to wear her Cinderella dress and crown when we left for The Magic Kingdom. I packed her another outfit thinking the synthetic fabric of her little blue dress would be too hot eventually - never did talk her into changing though! Guess she takes after her mom - it's all about the looks!

We jumped on Aladdin's Magic Carpet ride first. The kids loved this one so much we did it twice and as we were getting off, out ran Alladin and Jasmine to ride! They rode one round and then came over to the market area to sign autographs and pose for photos. As you can see, they were both excellent and looked a great deal like their movie! Aladdin's signature even looks like the movie title! I had been so worried that Melissa was going to be afraid to have pictures made since she was afraid of everybody yesterday. She was concerned about Aladdin, but Jasmine was her "new best friend" and she was able to talk Melissa into a pose with Aladdin nearby.
Then we went off to ride a few more rides. On the way we ran into the "Magical Dreams Parade". The kids had fun picking out their favorite characters. These two are my personal favorite. Mary Poppins...
and the gang from Pinocchio! Jiminey Cricket and Geppetto are on the lower level waving furiously while Pinoch watches over. This was so adorable!

Almost time for lunch! There was just enough time for a visit to Ariel's Grotto! Melissa was so thrilled and she just kept talking. She told Ariel all about her "pincess bwacelet" and how she got all dressed up to come see the princesses! One funny thing: nearly every princess that met her asked her who her favorite was. Her answer? The name of whichever one she was speaking with then and Cinderella! So when Ariel asked her, her answer was "Ariel and Cindewella". When Snow White asked her the same question her answer was "Snow White and Cindewella"! I thought it was SO stinkin' funny that she wanted everyone to think they were her favorite!

Lunch finally arrives! Melissa ate her food (chicken nuggets, fries, and corn) so she got dessert! This was a scoop of vanilla ice cream with Disney-shaped sprinkles topped with a chocolate crown!
