Last night in Disney

After dinner, we wandered around Epcot and waited for the fireworks. We ended up staying in 'Agrahbah' for awhile watching a beautiful belly dancer. She was awesome!

The Royal Birthday Feast

To help celebrate Lou's birthday, we ended the evening at the Royal Banquet Hall in Epcot with...you guessed it, more Disney Princesses! I know it was Emmylou's big day, but I definitely felt like a queen myself.

Mommy kept calling me a 'puffin' so this was fitting.

Day 5 - Happy Birthday Emmylou!

Today is Emmylou's 6th birthday and were we in for some special treats. The boys went to Hollywood Studios to do boy stuff like Star Wars and Indiana Jones, and the girls went to the Magic Kingdom because we had important appointments with our fairy godmothers at the Bibbidy Bobbidy Boutique in Cinderella's Castle! On our way, we had to stand in another 2 hour line to see Rapunzel! She was oh so worth the wait.
Happy Birthday, Emmylou! Her Grammy made this special dress just for her big day.

It's Rapunzel!

Epcot - Day 4

We started our day at Epcot and didn't get far when we saw *gasp* THE BEAST! Belle wasn't around and the line was about as long as Epcot was round but we begged, begged, begged to see the Beast and wait for Belle in her yellow dress. We already saw Belle at the breakfast but not my favorite Belle in her beautiful, princess yellow dress! So, while the daddies were off doing daddy things and sampling Epcot, our mommies stood in line with us for about an hour and a half. The Beast came out......no Belle yet but I knew she was coming. And then??? BELLE! But wait! Belle isn't in her beautiful, yellow princess dress. Belle was in her blue dress. That's not what Belle wears with the beast! I was so disappointed and I think our mommies were about to wring someone's neck - but not the Beast because he's, well, a beast! We got more signatures and pictures and off we went to the next adventure.
Bubba always says he wants to go to China. Well, Welcome to China Bubba!
Baby Levi kept jumping around with Mickey. I don't think Mickey was too pleased but you couldn't tell with that big smile on his face.
Aunt Sara and Aunt Bunny told us that we had to definitely go to Hoop de Do Review when we were in Disney. As an early birthday celebration, after Epcot we took trains, plains and automobiles over to the Wilderness Lodge. By the time we got there, we were hot and tired and wondering why we decided this was a good idea. Until.....we walked in and sat at our table with all you could eat real southern fried chicken, real buttery mashed potatoes, sangria (for the parents, of course) in mason jars, cornbread, salad and the works. Dinner was finger lickin' good! Then, the best part started with the show. We couldn't take our eyes off the stage and had the best time ever.
