Disney Day 3~ July 20th

Friday, the QS1 conference hosted a character dinner with Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, and Donald Duck at 6pm, so we didn't go to any of the parks that day.  After our classes, Jessica and I got to go to the pool for about an hour while the kiddos took a nap!  It was very nice to relax a little bit.  We went to dinner at the Contemporary Resort (where all our meetings were) and then back to the Polynesian and watched the kids swim some more and saw the fireworks from our resort!
This is a picture of our Mickey Waffles we had for breakfast that morning!!

Our private character dinner was lots of fun!

Minnie and Mickey were there!

And Goofy and Donald came too!  Goofy and Donald tried to give Emma a kiss and hug when she first went up there to meet them, and she was DONE!!  (I think it kind of freaked her out!  So she would not get in a picture with them!)  Madi, on the other hand, LOVED Goofy!!  She even honked his nose and gave him a kiss on his nose!!


Madi and Me took a picture with Goofy and Donald!

All the kiddos (minus Emma) with Goofy anf Donald!

Disney Day 2~ July 19th

Thursday was Magic Kingdom day and it was truly the MOST PERFECT DAY!!! We started out by grabbing fast passes to go backstage to meet Mickey and Minnie and to meet the Princesses!!  We went over to Tomorrowland to ride a few rides until time!
Madi and Emma waiting on the monorail...which came right up to our resort!! (The ONLY way to go!)


My favorite picture of me and the girls!!

I am SO thankful that LoLo and PaPa love me and my girls so much!!!
GREAT memories were definitely made!

Baby Madi was not really cooperating for the group pic!

Cinderella's castle!  Emma LOVES walking up to it!

Sweet girls!

I can NOT believe they let Madi on the Astro Orbittor!!  You have to actually ride an elevator up to get on it and it flies in the air REALLY high REALLY fast!  But, she LOVED it!  LoLo said she was jumping to try to make it go faster...little dare-devil!!

Jessica and Jackson!  One of the very few rides Jessica rode!

Waiting backstage to meet Mickey!


Minnie was there too!!!

Madi LOVED Minnie Mouse!!


Next was the Move It Shake It Parade!! (With popcorn, of course!)



Madi picked out this Minnie Mouse!!  She even said "Minnieeeee!!"

Next we were off to meet the princesses!!  This is BY FAR Emma's favorite part of Disney World!!

She took her Aurora dress to wear to meet them this year!

Meeting Belle!


And her favorite...Cinderella!!

Madi wasn't too sure about them! (Exact opposite of Emma!)


Part of the new Fantasy Land had opened up!  They have completely re-done Dumbo and it was really awesome!!


Emma wanted me to ride with her, so Madi rode with LoLo!


PaPa rode with Jackson (since Jessica is a woos!! ;)


Madi, Rusty, Emma, and PaPa!  The boys were real troopers!!

PaPa and his Princess!

LoLo (bravely) rode the Tea Cups with the boys!

Emma's favorite ride is still the Tea Cups!!  Madi LOVED it too!!



Jackson said he was going to make LoLo throw up!!

Madi also got to ride It's A Small World!!  This was definitely her favorite!

She stood up (jumping) and laughing and looking at everything!!  I was SO happy she got to ride a few things and really enjoyed them!

Buzz Lightyear ride!!  We got fast passes for this ride and the boys actually got to ride it twice!  They LOVED it!!

I was beating PaPa the whole ride, but he ended up scoring more than me at the last minute!

Since we had seen the fireworks and parade the night before, we rode all the rides without ANY lines this night while they were going on!!

Emma always loves a good carousel ride!

LOVE this face!  She was really trying to pull the sword out!

What a MAGICAL day at Magic Kingdom!!  (I'm already wanting to go back, just looking at these pictures!!!)
