Disney - Day 3

The next morning we headed over to the Magic Kingdom first thing in the morning to get in line to make Reagan's dreams come true. She specifically told us that if she did not get to meet Rapunzel that it would ruin her vacation......... They had a really neat set up where they would allow larger groups of people to come in and the kids could color while other kids were taking their turn.





 Reagan was a bit star struck.

Rapunzel was the first "character" Abby was willing to not only go up to but hug.

After that we headed over to Hollywood Studios. There we found several more characters as well as a few shows.

 Pooh - Notice Abby's face. This appears to be what she does in uncomfortable situations.

 Waiting for Mickey..........


 Reagan & Mr. Incredible showing their muscles. 

 Lightening McQueen & Mater

We found hula hoops!


 We played quite a bit of stroller swap.

 Silly ladies. 

 I think this one made Dad the most proud. 


We left Hollywood Studios and headed back to the hotel to get changed for a very special night. The girls turned into princesses and we headed back to the Magic Kingdom. I know that all of the girls were very excited about the night but for me we were about to make Abby's dreams come true. But first a quick stop to see Mickey and Minne. 





And then we headed to dinner in Cinderella's Castle! Abby literally gasped when she saw her.



We headed up stairs and were wowed by all of the magic of the castle and all of the princesses!

 Back at our hotel headed back to the Magic Kingdom for the night. 




The best part of the day was our surprise for the girls - at the Animal Kingdom we "ran" into Grandma, Grandpa & Uncle Craig. The girls were so shocked at first that they didn't know what to do and were glued in the stroller. I wish I would have gotten that on film or at least more pictures then the one single one we actually have with everyone!
