Disney World

Okay, so I am just warning you...this is a long post with lots of pictures!! We went to visit my Aunt Claire and Uncle John, and all of their girls this past week. On Friday we all went to Disney World's Magic Kingdom!! My cousins, Caroline, Emily, and P-cat go often since they live so close, and they had been telling me how much fun it was. I had been looking forward to this for a long time. It was my first time, and let me tell you it was just as wonderful as I hoped it would be.
Even Gracie was excited and ready to take the park by storm.

Seeing the castle for the first time was so much fun. It was nice to have Caroline and Emily to help me know where everything was and point out all I needed to make sure and see.

This is Emily and I waiting to ride my very first ride, Winnie the Pooh.

Here I am in the honey pot. I am sooo happy!

Riding the Dumbo ride was something I had been talking about for weeks. I had seen videos of other children riding it and knew it would be something I would like.
Gracie had fun but she got tired too.
Here we are with Belle after hearing a story in her garden.

Gracie got plenty of attention even though there was a lot to see and do. Here we are waiting to meet the princesses.

The parade was probably my favorite part of the whole day. All of my favorite characters were close enough to see and say hi to. I am typically pretty quiet, but I was not shy about yelling out "Hi Mickey, hi Tigger, hi Minnie, hi Ariel!"
Here I am meeting with Cinderella. She was so nice. I went right up and surprised my mommy by talking to her, and giving her a hug.
Okay, below is a video of my riding my first roller coaster. This was Daddy and Uncle John's idea. Contrary to what the video suggests, I did say I would ride it again.


A big thank you to Aunt Claire, Uncle John, Caroline, Emily, and P-cat for having our family at their house and for a wonderful day at Disney World.
