The Magic Kingdom

 We're here!!! What Grace (and us) have been waiting for. She is obsessed with Cinderella. So for the past couple months she's known she was going to Cinderella Castle. She couldn't wait to see the castle, meet Cinderella and hopefully catch a glimpse of the mice (her second favorite to Cinderella).

Grace picked out her Cinderella shirt to wear.
 As soon as we came in we saw Snow White immediately. We were so excited to meet the first Princess of the day. I went and got a fast pass for meet the princesses and we were set to see them in about an hour. I love fast pass!!! 

 The Castle. As old as I get.. it still gives me chills when I see the Castle. It's just pure magic. 
 My two princesses.
 We wanted to take a pic of the girls by the Castle. Grace could not take her eyes off of it. It was the sweetest moment and I'm so happy we captured that. 


 So excited we were here. Behind the Castle they build a new Fantasyland. It's amazing. There is a Beauty and the Beast Castle, the Little Mermaid ride, and they are building a Snow White ride and a Garden to meet the princesses.

 Going to Meet the Princesses
This was my favorite moment of the trip. Grace meeting Cinderella. She could not wait to meet her. When we got into the Magic Kingdom Grace wanted to see Cinderella right away. Actually when the plane landed in Florida she thought Cinderella would be there. She didn't understand that we had to wait but she was very good. We waited in a little line because we had the fast pass. When it was our turn Cinderella took Grace by the hand and walked away with her and started talking to her. It was the sweetest moment!

 




 Next we met Princess Aurora. She was so sweet and the girls loved her.

 The last Princess we got to meet was Rapunzel. 

 Onto the mouse!! We always love Mickey.
 My little Minnie
 Another one of my favorite moments was when Grace met the Fairy Godmother. Grace LOVED her. I can't take this hug. Grace is so happy.

 We love you Fairy Godmother.
 Onto the train. What a fun ride around the park. It's a good secret ride. The girls loved it and we got to see the entire park.

Lily spent a lot of time in the baby carrier. She took plenty of naps in it. I love having her so close to me. It's such a sweet time. 
 She woke up in time for the parade.
 Such a great parade at the Magic Kingdom. We got to see all of the characters. It was a perfect way to end our first day at the Magic Kingdom.


 I love this picture. Lily is just so amazed by the parade. She may be young and will not remember her first trip to Disney but she was totally into it the whole time. We have so many memories of this special time in her life. 

 We found the mice!!! Yay!!
 Favorites!!

 We went back to the hotel for a nap and then came back for dinner. Grace having a Disney tantrum. Every kid goes through it. She was so good overall but she is 3 years old. It's bound to happen.
 I love this pic. Grace looks thrilled to be out to dinner. 

 We ate dinner at the Crystal Palace in the Magic Kindgom. We got to meet Winnie the Pooh and friends. It was so cute. 
Lily meeting Piglet. 
 Pooh Bear
Tigger
 and Eeyore... 
Princess Grace having the time of her life
 She LOVED the hotel. Sometimes I thought we could've just rented a room at the local hotel and she would've been happy. She would say during the day, "Can we go back to the hotel?" She loved it!!

 The nights ended with her watching The Wizard of Oz in bed. 
Sweet Dreams My Loves
