Disney Disclaimer: The large amount of text and almost-obnoxious number of pictures on each of these Disney posts is solely for the memory of the blogger (and of course the grandparents!).
Day three started off disgustingly-hot. Here's the proof:
waiting in line for the shuttle to the park. My camera lens fogs up the second I take it out!
How can a trip to Disney for seven days get any better? FRIENDS! The sweet, sweet Warren family just happened to be at Disney World while we were! :) How convenient that our girls are the same ages...
We saw them the first two days of our trip, but the third day we spent the whole day with them at Hollywood Studios. Thank goodness they were there. Without being too dramatic, I'll just say that Abby and Sophie saved my life! :) For lunch, we went to Hollywood and Vine, where you eat with the characters from Playhouse Disney. DISASTER!! Ellie cried and hid under the table anytime a character was even in site.
Abby saw how frustrated I was with Ellie, so she took over! The rest of the day, I ignored the whole character phobia and let Abby deal with it! At one point, Sophie even talked to Ellie about not being scared. It worked because the rest of the trip Ellie was a lot less hesitant of the characters, and that same day wanted her picture taken by herself with Mickey!!
Oh, and we did ride rides, too! The Toy Story ride was our favorite!
The Fantasmic Light Show was awesome. All four girls sat in awe (silently!!) for the entire show!
Side note: The picture above is why I want a new camera for Christmas. A Canon SLR, please. I'm sure it can be found on Craigslist or eBay. You know, in case anyone is wondering. :)
Just because they're too funny, here are Selah and Mary Claire at Hollywood Studios.
They have a love-hate relationship. They're always really excited to see each other, but they also know exactly what pushes the other one's buttons!
Perfect example: they insist on sitting in the same stroller...
...then they fight over the water bottle with the fan!
The best picture of the day would have been one where Selah and MC were crammed in the front of our stroller, and Sophie and Ellie were huddled in the back because there was a nasty storm. Scary lightning, torrential downpour, booming thunder; all while waiting in line (uncovered!) for the shuttle back to the hotel.
I was thinking the post about Hollywood Studios would be short because we didn't do as much. HA! I better put aside an entire afternoon for the rest of our trip...

That looks like so much fun!! What great memories for the girls and to get to go with the Warrens and Franklins ( I know you don't have pics of them but she was telling me about going with you guys ;) We have been thinking about going. Did you feel the girls were old enough to take it all in? Did they tire out or get overwhelmed? Your pics make me want to go, but I want to make sure the boys are ready. Sorry, so many questions ;)
