Magic Kingdom

Magic Kingdom is our favorite park, so we spent lots and lots of time enjoying it over several days. On our first morning there, we made sure to arrive at the gates just in time to see the "Welcome Show" ~ Mickey and his friends sing "Good Morning" to everyone, and then there's fireworks ~ it's the perfect way to start the day!
Andrew loved riding the "Regal Carousel" ~ he melts my heart with that smile!
Andrew was so patient while waiting on everyone to ride ~ an ice cream treat sure did make it a lot more fun!
My handsome guys ~ I love them so much!
Lunch at the "Be Our Guest Restaurant" was such a special treat ~ we really felt like we were in a castle. Lauren's favorite princess has always been Belle, so she loved it! Even the guys enjoyed it ~ the food was delicious ~ especially the desserts! We really appreciate Aunt Carol's willingness to arrive early and wait in line for all of us!

The "Dream Along With Mickey" performance is one of our favorites ~ I was excited for Andrew to see it, and he loved it!
 Lauren and I also love the "Move It! Shake It! Celebrate It! Street Party" ~ it's fun when the characters come down from the floats and dance in the street with all the kids! Andrew enjoyed it, but he would only dance if Lauren was willing to hold him ~ she is such a sweet sister!
A new favorite this year was the "INCREDIBLES Super Dance Party". Andrew was the first one to start dancing, but he preferred to be "out of the spotlight"! It was much too fun!
Two of the four nights we were there, we stayed/returned for the "Main Street Electrical Parade", "Celebrate the Magic" ~ an amazing projection show on the front of the castle, and the "Wishes Nighttime Spectacular" ~ fireworks over the castle. Magic Kingdom truly is a magical place for our family ~ we just love it!
