Disney Trip 2012

I KNEW this was going to be a good year for Disney for Ross!

She watches Mickey Mouse Clubhouse way more than normal parents would 

let her and can tell you the plot to almost every princess movie out.

It was a shoe-in.

Every year we do at least one "Character Meal" with the kids. 

They are fabulous. 

It costs a little, but it's worth it!

Each character comes by your table for plenty of pictures and hugs

...all while you eat!

We've chosen "Chef Mickey" 2 years in a row now, 

mainly because it has all the "main" characters.

Ross was all about the rides this year. Every bit of it facinated her!

No doubt, her favorites were "It's a Small World," 

"The People Movers,"

"The Magic Carpet Ride"

and the NEW "Little Mermaid" ride.

(Which really is pretty fabulous, I might add...)

For the first time this year, we decided to eat at "Cinderella's Royal Table."

This, of course, is where you eat in Cinderella's castle...with all the princesses.

Again, it's a bit pricey, but it was pretty special...

and probably not something we'll do every year.

I can't tell you how wonderful it was to watch Ross enjoy this so much. It honestly brought me to tears a few times. I feel so fortunate that we have the opportunity to experience it with her every year.

It really was a great time...and a trip Ross will probably be talking about up until next year!
