We took the kids to Disney last week, and this morning I decided to stop editing other people's pictures and look at my own for a change. :) Disney was so much fun. They really know how to entertain.

Here's Evie "bibbity-bobbity-booing" the camera with her magic wand.

Watching a show in front of the castle on Daddy's shoulders:

The castle lit up at night for Christmas:

This should be an entire post in itself, but I'm putting these here to illustrate HOW MUCH OUR KIDS LOVED THE CHARACTERS. It was sooo funny. I can't even describe it, but I have lots of pictures. They didn't care how long we had to wait in line to see them (it was never very long anyway), but every time we saw a character line they went nuts and refused to do anything else until they got to touch the character. Excuse the poor lighting; nobody asked me where to place the characters :)

It was really dark in the room where we met Cinderella in the castle before we had lunch with the princesses, but this is just too precious. I love the way she talked to Evie and acted so excited to see her. Evie was just so happy.

At the royal table with some other princesses:

Graham was wearing his Mickey Mouse costume, or at least part of it, for the occasion. He loved Snow White.

And now he really loves Snow White. Here he is walking back to his seat after meeting her. :)

We stayed at a place that had a man-made beach, but that was good enough for us! The sunset was beautiful over the "lake".

Evie even got to build sand castles.
