Day 3 - Magic Kingdom

There is a reason it is called Magic Kingdom. It was nothing but magical for us and the kids all day.

Ethan was tall enough to ride Space Mountain and loved it. Even though Audrey was very close to being able to ride it I'm pretty sure she would have been scared.


Audrey was still a little skiddish after the Flick show from the day before. A few minutes into the ride we realized that she should have rode with Doug or I.

Car racin'...sort of!
The kids got to tour Mickey's and Minnie's homes!

Jacob was chosen to be in Storytime with Belle. We knew that Ethan was a disappointed it wasn't him, but Jacob did a great job playing Gaston.

He even had a speaking role. He had to say "You will marry me Belle" three times.

Ethan didn't want to be in the picture and meet Belle. Hmmm, I wonder why?

Lunch at Cinderella's Castle
This was the highlight of our day. Audrey got a professional picture taken of her and Cinderalla. The food was great and the kid's loved meeting all the princesses.

They gave the boys swords and wands to the girls.

More princesses!

Thunder Mountain was our favorite ride. First of all, Audrey was able to ride it, and second of all there were no lines. We rode the ride four times back to back and Audrey raised her hands the whole time. The screaming coming out of Audrey and Ethan was hilarious.

It started to rain so we hung out in a few shops while we waited for it to stop. The boys had fun playing with the merchandise while we killed time.

So sweet!

The fireworks show was great, but Audrey had had enough. Thank goodness we borrowed a stroller from the Simmons to take with us to Disney World. I don't know what we would have done if we didn't have it. It was definitely a lifesaver.
