Disney Day 1











5 Kids totally keeps me from blogging. We have been home from Disney for a week and a half and I am just now getting to update about our trip. Well Disney was awesome. We told the kids about a week and a half before we were going to get there. We felt that with the older kids they needed a heads up about the trip and we definitely think we made a wise decision. Anyway on day one we got to our resort and celebrated Zach's 10th birthday. I know being one vacation would not allow us the opportunity to throw him a birthday but I am sure being at Disney world would definitely trump a party. So we had a relaxing time at the pool and celebrating Zach.
The next morning we hit Magic Kingdom. We decided to give the kids the ultimate Disney experience and we decided to start them off with breakfast with Winnie the Pooh and friends since Heather, Logan, and Zach had never been to Disney before. The kids loved getting autographs and taking a ton of pictures. Even the big ones through getting autographs was cool. I was really surprised at how kids at any age are willing to run up to the characters with their autograph books waiting to be signed. Honestly, I thought they were more excited than the little ones.
I also had the boys get pirate make overs and all the girls got a bibbiddi boutique make over. I think this might have been the best part of the trip for the kids. The boys totally got into the make overs and we could hardly keep all the pirate get up away from Logan throughout the trip. The girls just loved being pampered and getting all princessed out. I think for Heather this was especially an awesome experience since she loves doing make up at home and here someone took over and did it for her. Heather and Lennah went for the Diva princess look and Delylah got into the classic princess look. It was such a cute experience and as expensive as it was it was totally worth it watching the kids get all that attention.
For dinner on the first night of Disney we had dinner at 1900 park fare. It was with Cinderella, Prince Charming, the wicked step mother and the step sisters. The dinner was totally awesome and this was the first time we had ever gotten to see Prince Charming.
Overall it was a great day one.
