Lovey, our navigator; and Becca-Becca, our charmer
On our way to Disney's Magic Kingdom
MG told me "I'm sad, Mommy."
And then I told her, "We're going to the Magic Kingdom! We're going to the Castle!"
And then MG was happy again (that, and she had fruit snacks)
Chrisman Kidlets + Mom & her name sake, Becca-Becca Train ride from the parking lot to the Magic Kingdom gate
Hussel on in!
We unloaded from the train and rushed to security (had to wait to get through), and rushed to enter the park (had to wait for that too), and finally rushed through the entire park to the end where the Dumbo ride was (and, of course, had to wait for that ride).
Dumbo!
Dumbo was our first ride
And it happened to be the longest wait we had for a ride ~ 10 minutes
Grandma & Reese were always partners on the rides
Me, Becca, & Gage
Gage controlled how high we went, & if we tilted forwards or backwards.
He loved being in control!
We're all lined up & ready for take off!
Grandma + Reese; Lovey + MG; Me + Becca & Gage; Jed + Cy
(JoJo + Taylor-Bug were in front of Mom)
It's a Small World
We got cooled down on the 11minute boat ride
(see my sweaty shirt?); Reese is sad the ride is over
Cinderella's Carousel - a Mary-Gail favorite
Lovey standing inbetween his two littles
Mad Hatter - Tea Cups!
Lovey had too much fun spinning us - we nearly got sick!
Jo, Reese, & Becca are in the yellow TeaCup;
Lovey, Cy, MG, & Me are in the teal TeaCup
I think Becca-Becca's head was still spinning!
Gamboree Bears
Tony, Jo, & Mom took the littles to see the Gamoboree Bears,
while Jed, Dad & I went on the Splash Mountain ride.
Adventure Land - pirates!
'Adventure Land' entrance
It's OK to have your picture taken with strange people, right?
Mary-Gail gives hugs to Captain Hook
(she gave Smee a kiss on his nose too!)
P.S. She's never seen the show Peter Pan...
3:00 pm Parade through Main Street, U.S.A.
Among other floats and characters we saw were Pinocchio
I nearly cried when I saw Cinderella! Her step-mother came towards me and said,
"What a lovely shade of red your shirt is."
"What a lovely shade of red your shirt is."
Mary-Gail collapsed on the ground, & Cy slept during the parade.
They were so tired!
Cinderella's Castle - I just love Cinderella.
She's my absolute favorite!
'Tomorrow Land' entrance
Our family @ Magic Kingdom
(sadly, Tony was taking the picture)
And we're spent!

If you need help planning a successful route of the Magic Kingdom, Amanda is your lady! We had this park covered and every ride (minus 4) & almost all the parades / performance complete by 3:30p. We were able to pull that off without waiting in lines & avoiding all the crowds because you stayed up the night before literally deciding exactly which rides to hit first. It totally paid off!
thanks for all the pics!!! now i feel like i didn't miss out on anything. its a small world that always makes me cry! can't wait for 2012!!
