Disney

[sparks19]

she is so beautiful

with Daisy

The 11 am "Move it Shake it Celebrate it" parade started just as she got to daisy. at First Hannah covered her ears because of the loud music but Daisy just started dancing and completely distracted her from the noise and they cut a rug together

then we went to see Mickey and Minnie... AGAIN. We ended up being the last in the group and we got a lot of extra one on one time with them. We thanked Mickey and Minnie profusely for the extra time and they were really really wonderful. Again I can't stress enough how wonderful this place is and how amazing the cast members are. They really understand how special this is to families like us and I think they just appreciate that we appreciate it lol

This is HANDS DOWN my favorite photo from the whole trip

Mickey came over to me and took Hannah's Princess Minnie so they could all pose for a photo together lol

Just after this photo Mickey and Hannah were holding hands and Hannah said "I love you Mickey" and Minnie stomped her foot and put her hands on her hips and wagged her finger LOL I told her that she better watch out because Hannah is a charmer. She Looked at me and nodded her head and then Laughed and patted her heart lol

Family photo

We went back in to see the princesses again even though we already did this the other day but that doesn't matter lol. While we were waiting in line, Belle spotted Hannah and came over to chat her up. I'm telling you.. this girl got so much special treatment while we were there haha. I know it's Disney and they really strive to make everyone feel special and they do an incredible job but I just can't believe the way people respond to her. She is a very special little girl and I'm not just saying that because I'm a proud momma (which I am lol). she really does touch peoples hearts

OK I'm done for tonight lol. We did half of the drive today and the last half of the drive home comes tomorrow so we need our beauty sleep LOL I know.. there is not enough time in the world for that kind of beauty sleep :rofl1: I will post the last of the photos and the rest of the trip report when we get home.

But like Renee posted on my facebook... are we GOING home or LEAVING home lol. disney's "motto" at their resorts is "WELCOME HOME". We love it lol

You're right, of course. She really is so beautiful <3

Brian is going to get old SO fast, lol.

Im seriously not sure I could do Disney without punching someone, and I am no where near as easy to anger then I was 3 years ago. Just not my thing.

The penguin does make me laugh, but since I saw Farce of the Penguins all penguins make me laugh. Yall look like its is the happiest place on Earth though, I just dont think I would fit in.

Thanks for the pics. Brian glad she didnt get your looks, mom's dimples on her are adorable.

Disney is a piece ofcake in the off season. The crowds were very minimal. The only thing we waited more than 15-20 minutes for was when I met Phineas and Ferb lol and that was my own fault. I could have met them earlier when there was not a single person in line lol. Plus all the people we were around were awesome. Met some of the nicest people

It definitely is the happiest place on earth for us. We are headed back in december... Possibly earlier since we have annual passes and disney vacation club.

Yeah I don't know how Hannah got to be so beautiful but I am glad she got my dimples lol

 

[sparks19]

You're right, of course. She really is so beautiful <3

Brian is going to get old SO fast, lol.

LOL I know. we kept hearing it over and over on this trip "Oh you guys are in so much trouble when she gets older" LOL she's such a little charmer and has the whole world wrapped around her little finger

 

[Miakoda]

I love how in the family picture she is standing in front of Minnie and not you and Brian.

 

[Barb04]

The family pics are great. I have to say that Hannah is a Princess!

 

[sparks19]

I love how in the family picture she is standing in front of Minnie and not you and Brian.

HAHA I didn't notice that until you mentioned it. Come to think of it... she was always trying to migrate to another family throughout the trip, so this makes sense. :rofl1: Whenever we were in a line she would inevitably end up in conversation with the family in front of us.

Hannah is a confident kid but she can get nervous in new situations. it just takes her a bit to warm up. she doesn't jump right into things, she has to observe for a while until she decides it's OK to participate lol. Of course this is becoming more and more rare the older she gets but when we went to the dance party and she saw Minnie... she could not have cared less about my where abouts lol.

The family pics are great. I have to say that Hannah is a Princess!

Thank you She is something else lol

I'm so jealous of Hannah! I would've loved to have gotten to go to Disney, and meet the penguins. They're my favourite animal, so I probably would've tried to take them home, LOL.

I really love how well they stay in character. The way Minnie wagged her finger, sounds adorable! Glad you all had such a great time!

I've always thought they could've done a bit better with their wigs at Disney, though. I wear wigs myself so I feel awkward that mine are better than theirs.

 

[Fran101]

Hannah is really growing up and becoming a lovely young lady She really is simply adorable!
I'm sure she had a great time, I am trying not to comment on EVERY picture on facebook lol but I'm just so glad you guys do this and really get into it as parents. Disney is still one of my happiest memories and I started going around Hannahs age

Who is her favorite princess?

 

[sparks19]

Oh yeah we lOve it as much as she does lol. We are going again in december with my inlaws but we are trying to figure in another trip before then lol. We have annual passes so we can do the trip very reasonably. Brian said "i dint know if i can wait until december lol". Just a short trip. We need to head that way anyway to visit his parents so we can sneak in a mini trip lol

Her favorite princess... Definitely Cinderella but she is particularly fond of snow white after this trip

But her favorite overall character is Minnie Mouse, hands down. While we were there we found a stuffed minnie dressed as cinderella lol

I have a few more photos to load. Hopefully tonight or tomorrow

 

[sparks19]

I'm back to update the last day of our trip lol.

Back to the princesses.

Cinderella suggested they spin together to see if hannah has a good spinny dress LOL

Spinning with Belle

curtseys of course

Then aurora

 

[sparks19]

This is how she always takes the stairs at Magic Kingdom. Such a princess

We saw Mary Poppins AGAIN lol

More spinning

Everyone loved the dress she was wearing... they loved it even more when I told them I paid $5 for it LOL. but alas that dress is coming to the end of it's journey with us. it's getting too small and she's worn it to DEATH. This may have been it's last trip lol. Now I'm going to have to find a replacement and what are the odds of finding one like that for $5 lol

Ariel and prince Eric

They were asking us who else we needed to meet that day and I said that Aladdin and Jasmine were the last characters we needed to meet lol So Prince Eric told Hannah that he had a message for Aladdin and asked her to give the message for him. the message was "Aladdin needs to behave and stop all that monekying around" LOL

After that we went into Pixie Hollow to meet Tinkerbell

Rosetta was there too

Rosetta came over and told Tinkerbell that Hannah has a very nice curtsey... so here is Hannah teaching Tink how to curtsey lol

alas Tink is not very graceful lol

 

[sparks19]

Finally we got to see Aladdin and Jasmine. Hannah suddenly pulled her shy girl act when we met Aladdin and Jasmine and she was giving the message Prince Eric had given her. Here is Aladdin listening very closely for this important message

After I said "He said that Aladdin has to behave and...." and then she finished it and said "and stop monkeying around" LOL Aladdin was great. He was very chatty and was really into his character. hannah adored him lol. He overshadowed Jasmine for sure.

When they were signing the book they started looking through to see all the signatures she had and commented that she'd met just about everyone. I told Aladdin that this was actually the second book LOL

Love this one

Then it was parade time. The parade started at 3 and by the time we got up there it was packed. Hannah could see at least. After the parade passes it goes and does a loop around the hub and then comes back down mainstreet. we headed up to the rest rooms and on the way out the parade was coming back around and this one cast member... an older gentleman named Jim... waved us over and lifted the rope for the reserved section. So we were right up front with only a few other people around us.

Hannah started out in her stroller (she was very tired out by the end of this day lol) but after a few characters came by she was up and out of the stroller lol

Fairy Godmother

This is Hannah giving Jim a curtsey. After the parade we hung around for probably ten minutes chatting with him and these two older ladies that were beside us during the parade. he gave hannah all kinds of buttons. He said that even though this is her 4th visit he was going to give her a 1st visit button anyway lol. She ended up with 5 different buttons that day and then a photopass photographer wandered up on this scene and started snapping photos of her. So glad I pre ordered the CD for $99 lol. we got 630 photos on it. I will post some of those when I get the CD

Then we headed back to Castle Couture so she could get her photos done (these automatically go onto the photopass cd so it didn't cost us any extra to have photos done)

That pretty much concludes the trip. After that we headed out becasue Brians parents came up to orlando for thursday night and friday night. We weren't checking out of Old key West unti Friday morning but they took Hannah overnight on Thursday night and Brian and I had a night all to ourselves. We had all these grand plans... go out to cat coras restaurant for dinner, watch illuminations at Epcot, drink around the world etc etc. know what we actually did? LOL we went to Olivias cafe, the restaurant at the resort (no complaints though... it's delicious and they ahve this fabulous pina colada bread) and then we went back to the room and looked through all our photos and started planning another trip LOL

 

[Kristen1980]

Wonderful pics and you got pics with all the Princess's too! Looks like you had a fun vaca! Can't wait to take Cardyn and Park

 

[sparks19]

yep the only princess we missed was Mulan and Hannah doesn't really even know who she is anyway lol.

 

[sparks19]

WOOHOO got our photopass photos. I paid $99 for the CD (or download)... it's normally $150 but if you pre order you only pay $99 and it's refundable if you aren't happy with the photos you received. Just a little tip there lol. So I always pre order and I've never been disappointed. this time we got 633 photos lol

I'll share my favorites (it will still be way too many lol) but if you want to see them all here is the link http://s23.photobucket.com/albums/b357/sparks1919/8th set of photos/#!cpZZ1QQtppZZ28

Look at all the lipstick on this kids face. I think she got 4 different ones that day lol

Such a little poser lol
