MAGIC KINGDOM
We snuck a new Cinderella princess dress into our luggage and surprised Maya with it first thing before we went to Magic Kingdom. She loved it and did not take off her headband or gloves all day.
So excited to go in to see the princess castle
First ride was the Buzz Lightyear ride
Both kids LOVED it!
Uncle Karl was so sweet to take us over to the new portion of Fantasy Land and we got to see the Beast’s castle.
I even got to meet Gaston…who was HYSTERICAL
And we rode the new LIttle Mermaid ride-so cute!
We caught the afternoon parade and this was one of my favorite memories from the week. 
We got to see all the characters
Donald even kissed Maya on the hand!
Maya was in Princess heaven
Seeing her favorite Cinderella
The characters were so cool to see
Ariel and Tianna (more favorites)
Giving a thumbs up for the parade
Our princess in front of the castle is another favorite memory for me
Mimi and Pops
Well…we can’t always be lady-like. Someone decided to choose disney world to be the place she no longer wanted her picture taken! 
We decided to get the kids started (and maybe mommy and mimi too) on the disney pins. I think it is such a neat tradition. Maya initiated a trade with a princess Jasmine that we met. One of my favorite moments from the trip (okay, I have a lot of favorite moments)
And we ended the night with Maya orchestrating conversation among the group about their favorites of the day. There really is no way to describe the comedy of this event. Just had to be there.
A wonderful day at Magic Kingdom.
Next up will be Animal Kingdom.
