Disney Delight

Wow, what a break we have had. I could ramble on forever about how wonderful Christmas was and how the girls had the time of their lives at Disney, but pictures (and my clever comments) speak volumes. Enjoy...


Showing off one of her fabulous princess dresses

Helping JoJo & Darby unwrap the presents


Snuggling with her sister in the toy pen. I mean pinning her little sister in the toy pen. Notice the difference in expressions. Family time in the tent


Their outfits are set out and all ready to go. Thanks for the garments Grammy and Pa!


Arriving at Magic Kingdom. It was freezing, well 50 degrees, but I was not gonna pass up wearing flip flops.



THE CASTLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think this was Ryan's favorite thing about the day. She LOVED that castle.

JoJo, Pap, & Uncle Dan met us at Magic Kingdom and spent the whole day making things extra special for the girls as well, thanks guys!

Cheerleader Ryan seeing the top of Magic Kingdom. Daddy is the best...

The boys, with the girls... Yep, she has my smile. Ahh, she was so happy! Family pic on, "It's a Small World" ride.
Taking it all in, getting ready for her next trip there. Riding the carosuel with Daddy and Uncle Dan.
The gorgeous castle at night. It was pretty impressive.
Riding the ferry back to the car around 11 PM.
Right before the fireworks. We literally could not move, there must have been 200,000 people in 200 square feet. About to go in the breakfast with Minni, Goofy, and Donald.


Finally, her moment is here. She got Minnie's autograph. I wonder where this book will be in 10 years.

DONALD!!!!!



The characters were so sweet to the girls. Darby LOVED all of the characters. The kids a the table next to us were in hysterics everytime they got close, our girls were crying everytime they left. We waited around for them to make two rounds!

Goofy was the coolest. He blew it up with Ryan and gave me and Bill a hug, he totally got it!


He loved her too...



The breakfast was at this amazing Disney resort, so we decided to take advantage of their amenities while we had free parking:) Hello beach time!

DIVAS!!!!
Too cute, she is changing so much! "Here mom, hold this..."
Happy New Years! The girls were troopers, both of them brought in the new year. Darby was up and Ryan was sleeping in a stroller, so I guess she kind of made it.
This was the first Christmas dress that premiered for the night. She was Ariel, thanks to Scarlett for letting her borrow her Disney dresses. And on to the second outfit for the evening, her Belle gown. She knew she was fancy! Twins! Oh, yeah and check out the no shave November that turned into no shave New Years. My girl! She stood in front of the guy playing acoustic guitar just smiling at the crowd like this. It was hilarious. There were oohhs and ahhhs everywhere. She is no fool!

Okay, so at downtown Disney they have these "statues" everywhere of real people decked head to toe in body paint. In the past, I have had awful run ins with these statues. They stay still until you are not paying attention, then they jump out and snag you. Well, this lady stood perfectly still until Ryan Lily came up to her and she bent down and did this. Ryan ate up every second of this. She had the crowd in the palm of her hand, just as she did mommy and daddy this past week.











Now we are back to reality. Work, school, bills, laundry, and no groceries. It is my own, personal, happiest place on earth- Auburn!
