Magical Disney

We returned on Sunday from our Disney World vacation with Autumn and it was truly magical. We spent 4 days while Joshua stayed home with my sister and Chris' mom. This was an all princess trip and Disney was the perfect place for our 4 year old princess!



Here is our Safari breakfast with Mickey and Friends at the Tusker House in Animal Kingdom. Lots of fun singing and dancing and great food! None of us had ever been to Animal Kingdom - what a beautiful park.



We enjoyed a great dinner at the Askershus palace in Norway with all of Autumn's favorite princesses. She especially enjoyed Sleeping Beauty, who said they could be sisters!



Goofy was his usual Goofy self as he made Autumn laugh with some silly dancing at Toon Town in the Magic Kingdom!



Ready for the 3D muppets movie at Hollywood Studios!



We were lucky to get a hug with Minnie and Daisy at Hollywood Studios too!



Autumn sharing a laugh with her Mickey balloon. She is all slicked up in sunscreen because it was HOT!



And of course....how could you possibly go to Disney World and not visit the Little Mermaid at Ariel's Grotto?! We waited in line over an hour (our longest wait the whole trip) but Autumn was in complete AWE when we finally got to see her. Her tail was glittery and gorgeous and she was so sweet with Autumn. This was our first stop on our first day and Autumn was so thrilled. All in all, a wonderful vacation and we can't wait to go back! But next time, Joshua gets to go with us!!

I haven't seen that particular Autumn smile in a LONG time - so big and genuine and everlasting! She looks like she had a fantastic vacation with her loving parents. I'm so glad you have these special memories together.

Disney World through a child's eyes...there's nothing in the world like it. What a magical time for you all to share, and what better place is there?
Love to all,
Aunt Nan

It certainly looks like EVERYONE enjoyed the trip. I can't wait to talk to Autumn about her trip. I'm sure she (and mom & dad) loved it!

That picture in the Ariel bathing suit - that is what sheer joy looks like! What a wonderful age to be when you can truly enjoy "princess time".
