Day 5 took us to Hollywood Studios where we screamed like little girls on the Tower of Terror ride :).
Me and my little girl who did not ride the super fun (and yet scary) ride.
The big guy himself! Here's the thing for all of you Disney-virgins. The characters (especially Mickey Mouse) don't just walk around the parks all the time. They are brought out at specific times to specific locations to meet kids and you must wait in a long line (and the lines are stopped after a certain point and the characters go back into hiding). To finally meet Mickey Mouse was a HUGE deal.
We also loved on Winnie the Pooh
Remember back on Day 4 when I told you that every day we let the kids pick one toy for the day...well since the very first day, all Smith asked for was this $17 spray fan. I kept distracting him with other stuff because I didn't want to pay $17 for a spray fan, I didn't want him to soak himself with water, blah, blah, blah...but the sweet boy would ask every.single.day and then be really sweet when I distracted him with other stuff. Finally, on Day 5 I bought him his fan :). I realized that all of the stuff I was distracting him with was more than $17, that it was 94 degrees outside and I would LOVE to be sprayed with water myself and that the boy was soooooooo happy to have his little fan. I should have just bought him the fan on Day 1 and he wouldn't have asked for one more thing the entire week. He was in love.
Kensington with popcorn and a drink at Disney (see Daisy Duck poking out of the back of her stroller...her toy for the day)...that's the good life.
Kensington wearing not one but two anklets...like mother like daughter...my wrists and ankles are always adorned.
On this night, we went back to Epcot to have dinner at my favorite restaurant (which again, required reservations 6 months in advance!). At this restaurant, you were able to meet most of the princesses. (Which makes life so much easier because then you don't have to hunt them down and stand in line for hours to meet them.)
Princess Aurora
Cinderella
At one point, they asked all of the "princesses" in the restaurant to do a little princess conga line thing around the restaurant. Notice anyone suspicious back there in line???
What? Smith does everything his sister does, including princess conga line things.
Smith has been waiting to meet Snow White since birth practically. She is all he has talked about. He had to meet Snow White. He totally cared less about all of the other princesses and characters but when she walked up to our table, he jumped down and turned on his "Andrew Shull charm".
And he hasn't stopped talking about her since. He loved him some Snow White!
Ariel
She was my personal favorite of the evening. She was really fun and super cute!
We ended the night with the light show. We let the kids each pick out a light toy...Smith the fan and K a necklace (jewelry of course!) that lit up. Fun day!!
