Disney World - May 2010

In May, we took our very first family trip to
Disney World! We had soooo much fun. I would
go back every year if I could. Just take a look
at Lily's very first glimpse of Disney....and it
only got better from there.We stayed at the Pop Century Resort.
It was really neat. Here is a glimpse at
just how HUGE everything was! Friday night, we rode a boat from the Magic Kingdom
over to Fort Wilderness for Chip & Dale's Campfire.
The Campfire was a blast and Lily even got to go
swimming in their fun water park. After the campfire,
we rode the boat by ourselves back to the Magic
Kingdom while the fireworks were going off.
We had our own private fireworks show on the water!

Saturday morning we were up bright and
early and off to Chef Mickey's for a fabulous
breakfast buffet!! It was so special to be able to
see Lily meet Mickey & Minnie for the first time.

After breakfast, we went to the Animal Kingdom.
It was a lot of fun! Lily rode Everest, which made her
a very brave 4-year old. We really enjoyed the Safari too!
Here is shot of Lily & I on the Safari:

After eating lunch at the Rainforest Cafe, we headed
to Epcot. It was especially neat because the International
Flower & Garden Festival was going on. There were creations
like this one all over the park:
Of course, no Disney World trip would be complete
without dinner with princesses at Akerhaus Castle
at Epcot. We met Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Alice,
Jasmine, and Snow White. Lily was just thrilled!
Sunday morning, we began the day with
another great breakfast at the Crystal Palace.
Winnie the Pooh, Tigger, Eeyore & Piglet
were all there! It was fun!
Because we celebrated Lily's birthday early,
we had Mickey Mouse confetti all over our table
which Tigger proceeded to pour over Lily's head!
Some of Lily's favorite rides at the Magic
Kingdom were Splash Mountain, Dumbo
& the Teacups. She spun us so fast we could
hardly stand it, but as you can see, she LOVED it!

Minnie Mouse's house!
Our very last activity turned out to be
one of the best. We went to Story Time with
Belle and Lily got to be Chip!! Here is a
picture of Belle applauding Chip for
saving the day. This just really made Lily's trip!
