DisneyWorld Day 4

A Fairy Tale Father's Day

Sunday morning we all got up and zoomed over to Epcot at opening to try to ride Soarin' before the lines became hours long. Well, that didn't exactly work out the way we had hoped. We ended up with Fast Passes to ride right after breakfast, but at least we got a nice brisk walk in before stuffing ourselves yet again during this week of delicious and constant gorging.

We all had breakfast at Akershus Royal Banquet Hall with several of the princesses. Mia especially enjoyed seeing Jasmine since she was wearing her Jasmine costume from Aunt Hillary.


Lennon really liked all the princesses too.


After breakfast we went back and most everyone rode Soarin' then we did some other Epcot rides. Here we are about to ride Living With The Land, something everyone was big enough for.


In Living With The Land they talk about some research they are doing into sustainable farming practices. Farming without soil and all kinds of interesting ideas.

We also rode Ellen's Energy Adventure and got to see some cool dinosaurs during that. After some fun at Epcot we went back to the hotel for the boys to nap and the girls headed over to The Magic Kingdom for Mia's appointment with her very own Fairy God Mother!


Mia waiting anxiously for her appointment. Which, by the way, was super late. They didn't get us in until more than an hour past our appointment time. Granmommy, Bethany, Mia and I rode a couple things and tried to watch the afternoon parade while we waited, but the parade was cancelled due to rain.

Sweet Mia being primped and pampered


Looking thrilled with the outcome


All decked out in Jasmine and pink, of course. Pink was her theme of the week it seemed. Everything she chose was pink.


When we were done at The Boutique the boys met up with us next to Cinderella's castle where we were going to have dinner. Here the kids are trying with all their might to pull the sword from the stone, to no avail of course.


Our little princesses with Snow White.


One of my favorite princesses with three of the kiddos.


This Ariel was especially sweet to Lennon


After dinner most everyone headed over to Hollywood Studios to see Fantasmic! Lennon and I stayed at The Magic Kingdom and had some Mommy and Me time. It was super fun to get some one on one time with him at the park since Mia and I had lots of one on one time while he napped throughout the week. Here we are in Mickey Mouse's garage with his tools. One of Lennon's favorite books is about Mickey and Goofy building a tree house and they use lots of tools, so this was one of his favorite parts of the house.


In classic Lennon style, he had to get inside Minnie Mouse's refrigerator.


About to ride what would become Lennon's favorite ride at Disney, Goofy's Barnstormer


Quite obviously, having a blast on this kiddie roller coaster

We also rode the Tomorrowland Indie Speedway, saw the parade and got a new balloon for Mia who left hers at the castle at dinner. We got home super late and he was such a trooper!
