A Time to Remember- day 2

We start off with well rested kiddos and breakfast with Winnie the Pooh, Tigger, Alice from Alice in Wonderland, the Mad Hatter, and Mary Poppins and the kids have warmed up to these fun loving characters hugging them and know the drill- books out to sign, smile for picture back to eating for the next one to come and the drill starts again.
We go to Disney World again today to see what we missed yesterday so a ride on the carousel, then onto the flying wonder Dumbo himself, and the never ending It's a Small World(which I have decided you need to be a small child to really love this ride because they did and Dad not so much). The big boys went off to Space Mountain and the rest of us went to Toontown and we decided to wait in line to see mystery characters and we met Goofy, Donald, and Pluto. The kids were so excited about it they wanted to wait to see the princesses too(it was D4's idea even) so we grabbed some snacks and waited to see what princesses would be waiting and Julianna struck gold her 3 favorites Cinderella again(which was great because I had my camera now), Belle, and Snow White.
We then went to the Monsters Inc show which was hilarious and had Jensen cracked up from the get go. Now that we had a good laugh it was time to eat and take a rest so back to the hotel we headed for lunch, pool time, and a nap which was going to be much needed for the fun to come.
For dinner we went to Chef Mickey at the Contemporary Hotel. Which of course who do you have dinner with Mickey, Donald, and, Minnie(I can't remember now if Goofy or Pluto was there or not). The kids are starting to like these dinners with all the fun characters around(though it is a bit of a distraction as far as actually eating thing goes). Then we went to Disney's Hollywood Studios. This is the most exciting thing for D4 the Star Wars ride and he loved it! As you walk up there is an AT-AT and you walk right under it so cool for him and dad loved it too!! After all that excitment we went and dressed Julianna as a princess she of course picked Sleeping Beauty not her favorite princess but pink! We waited to see the Little Mermaid show while David, Christian, and Jensen went to Disney Animation. Christian came out of there beaming he loves to draw so this was so fun for him. We decided at this point to go back to Disney World for the fireworks and parade and we got there just in time for the fireworks above the castle.. beautiful. We even had enough time before the parade to go on the pirate ride one more time for D4(he had been asking all day). Jensen of course is sleeping on Dad at this point but there is a parade coming up so we transfer him to a stroller and we let him sleep as we wait. The parade is magical at 11:00 at night and all light up the kids are spellbound by it and soon enough you look over at Jensen who has been abandoned by us all and he is pointing and oooing and ahhhing at all the fun passing by. What a long but fun day for all and soon we are off to sleep.
