Day 4...Hollywood Studios and Downtown Disney

On day 4 I still didn't get Michael to wear Mickey ears but after some convincing from the kids, he did wear his "First Trip To Disneyworld" button for a little while.  We rode the Tower of Terror first thing and Olivia LOVED it.  It scared Grayson to death!  Not our best parenting moment. 
 

Matching Buttons!

Watching the Ariel Show..It was AWESOME!




Gray was really happy to meet Mater and Lightning

Playing at the Honey I Shrunk The Kids set. 



Mickey Bars..Yum!

He still wasn't over the fear from the Tower of Terror but ice cream helped a little. 

Lunch with Handy Manny, Little Einsteins and Jake and the Never Never Land Pirates. 






That evening we headed to Downtown Disney.  We had dinner with Amy P, one of my great friends from college and shopped at some stores.  They loved the Lego store. 



 
Once again, we ate lots of good food and had a wonderful day!

Day 3..Epcot

 We hung out at Epcot on day 3.  We went to some different countries, road a few rides and had lunch in Japan.  We also stopped for Crepes in France.  Then we road "Soaring' which was a really fun ride.  We had dinner with the princess that evening.  The food was YUMMY and the kids really enjoyed the getting to see the princesses.  Epcot was probably our least favorite park, but we still had a great time!

What better way to start the day than breakfast in bed?



He's ready for the day!
This was a really good Ariel.  She called Liv's neckalce a dingle hopper!                                  







Day 2

Day 2...More Magic Kingdom
 
We slept in and headed back to Magic Kingdom.  We rode a few rides, met the princesses and had lunch with Tigger, Pooh and Piglet.  We dodged some rain, rode a few rides then stood in line for 45 minutes to meet Ariel and Eric.  It was totally worth it as this is Olivia's favorite princess. Then the kids headed off the to Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique.  This was one of the biggest highlights of the trip!  I booked the Royal Princess package for Olivia and the Knight package for Gray.  I didn't think he would really be that into it but man, he LOVED it!  The staff was so nice and referred to them at Sir Grayson and Princess Olivia.  They really did get the royal treatment and I must say, I was a little jealous.  Olivia just pranced around and you could tell she felt like a real princess.  Grayson loved the shield and sword they gave him and even got into a sword fight with another little boy while Olivia was getting her hair done!  After a fun day we headed back to the hotel and they loved to stop at "Andy's Room" each evening. We also discovered we could use one of our snack credits for ice cream sundaes at the hotel diner so this became a nightly tradition for us.  Yum-o!  These pictures are all out of order, oops!
