The Kingdom with the Magic

Well after all the bumming around we needed to get a park in today, and of course it was supposed to be rainy. Thank goodness we had great weather until we were ready to leave! I wish we would have gotten a better picture of us all in front of the castle but I didn't notice until it was too late.
                 
Elle was seriously a champ! I thought she was going to be a nightmare, but she was content to ride in the stroller and enjoy the sights. She wouldn't keep her shoes on though. She kept taking them off and throwing them out of the stroller. After almost loosing a shoe forever I just took them off her! Thank goodness it was warm! Ha

The first ride everyone wanted to go on was Space Mountain. So while the big kids rode I took Elle over to The Incredibles Dance Party. I let her out of the stroller and she was dancing a little, but was really unsure of the characters. Then Frozon came over to her and she ran to me, he left right away. After a little while Mrs. Incredible came over to her and she FREAKED OUT! She tried to show her she was nice and hung around for a minute but Elle was having no part of it, so she just danced off! I so wish I had it on video!
                       
We actually rode Space Mountain a few times and a few other rides before heading over to Frontierland. We got some fast passes and rider swap passes then grabbed some lunch. After lunch there was a parade and Luke LOVED it!


Looking for a place with a better view.
After the parade crowd cleared we headed to the one Olivia was DYING to get on! Splash Mountain!
I sat this one out because well, I'm lame and didn't want to get soaked. Lame mom alert!
Then we zipped over to Big Thunder Mountain Railroad. It was mine and Olivia's first ride together! Somehow we didn't ride together at all while we were at Animal Kingdom.


We only went on 2 rides that Elle could ride; Haunted Mansion and It's a Small World. Ethan and Kai were so excited to ride with Elle. She LOVED It's a Small World and was pointing and laughing the whole time.


                  
        I think Luke's highlight was meeting Woody and Jessie! He was so excited when he saw them after riding Splash Mountain. Ethan was not too excited about standing in that line. I quickly reminded him that the last time we were here the longest line we stood in was for Micky because HE insisted it wasn't a real trip without seeing him! Needless to say, he waited with a smile!             
Elle  was worn out by the end of it all, and so was I!
