Bippity Boppity Boo - Day 2

After a good night's sleep we were off to see more characters and have more fun.  First up is Charlotte's favorite - Daisy.  
We did some swimming and then after lunch the girls had a salon appointment.  We went to Bippity Boppity Boutique for some pampering.  
Getting their hair fixed by their Fairy Godmothers


and of course make-up!

While the girls were getting dolled up Evan & daddy saw this guy!
All done

Such beautiful princesses! 

Evan wanted to be the Captain of the ship.

Snow White
Cinderella
We had to stop and see Ellie's favorite - Minnie
That afternoon the show was Aladdin, so Jasmine was in attendance.  
After the show we saw Minnie again, she was even dressed up for the show.  

Pocahontas was there too. 
It was formal night, so we all got dressed up for dinner.  
We had dinner at the Animator's Palate.  
The kids had ice cream sundaes for dessert.  


After dinner we got to see some Princesses.  




And to end the night we went to the dance party and danced it up with Goofy & Pluto.

A late birthday present

For Ellie, Evan & Charlotte's birthday we decided to go on a Disney cruise.  There were none around their actual birthday, so we planned a later one.  So on April 26th we set sailed on the Disney Fantasy for a 7 night cruise to the Western Caribbean.
Our ship waiting on us at Port Canaveral
Mickey was there to send us off.  
Bon Voyage
 When we got on board the rooms were not ready yet, so we looked around the ship


and found some food.  
Evan's favorite was the unlimited amounts of watermelon!
While walking around we bumped into some friends


Finally the rooms were ready and we found ours

 It was small, but the kids absolutely loved the room and the beds hidden in the wall and ceiling.   
The kids were eager to go find some fun, so we headed to the open house at the kids' play area.  Of course they loved the Toy Story room.


After some playtime we headed over to the vacation club members party.  We got some free stuff and Matthew was picked to dance the hula.  He won and Ellie was so embarrassed!  
Finally it was time to set sail.  
Then off to get ready for dinner.  On our way to dinner we ran into my favorite - Pluto!

Our first dinner at The Royal Court.
After a yummy dinner it was off to see more characters before the first show.  


Waiting on Donald
Daddy's favorite
 When you ask Evan what his favorite part of the trip was, he always says the room.  He will say the boat was big, but our room was small.  They rotated beds every night.  
The first day was a success!

Old Barn

Before Granny sells her house we wanted some pictures around her old barn.  I think they turned out pretty good for just us and a tripod.
