Dancing Queen

While at Epcot on our last day, I sat with the girls while the other adults went on a ride, and we happen to catch the fountain show put to music by the Epcot ball.  Brenna was very tired and almost completely out in the stroller, but Sammie decided to get up and dance, and had a wonderful time.

Disney Princess Luncheon

While at Disney World, I took Sammie to a special Disney Princess Luncheon.  She was in heaven!  We started that morning by painting her fingernails, which she had to show each and every princess we met!

Disney World - German Dinner

One evening my folks treated us all to a nice German dinner at Epcot.  It was delicious, and there was live entertainment that ended up being our girls before the night was over.  They had so much fun dancing to the music, it made me a little sad to think that this was the only time we would be there with them at this age.  One of those moments I'll have to bottle up and save for myself always...

Sammie the Amusement Park Daredevil

While at Disney, Sammie surprised us with the rides she was willing to try.  For example, she went on the Tower of Terror.  She was tall enough, and after we explained it to her she informed us that she wasn't afraid of anything.  I'm pretty sure she changed her mind once it was over though...  When we asked her what she though she said "it was not very good daddy".

We lack a picture of this event though, as Nathan and I both went into protective parenting mode on the ride and had her completely covered in the picture, oh well!

Her favorite ride of all was one of those boat rides that has the big hill at the end, she went on this three different times.  First two with Auntie Karen, and last with Daddy.  She LOVED it!

It was not the warmest weather while we were there though, and she was freezing by ride number three, and decided to be done.

Disney World - 2010

In November of last year we took our first trip to Disney World.  We loaded up the family truckster in the evening and drove through the night to get there.  The first day was spent checking into the condo, making sure the tickets were all in order, grocery shopping, and getting settled in.  We got to enjoy the fireworks of the Magic Kingdom and Epcot from our balcony and then put two very tired little girls to bed, completely excited for the next day. 

Sammie seeing Cinderella's Castle for the first time:

Brenna was so happy just to be able to walk around and dance to the music!

 

More pictures to follow on the lunch with the Princesses, our little daredevil Sammie, and ones that melt my heart of my two little sweethearts...

Sammie's First Sleepover

Sammie had her first friend sleepover at the house back in October.  They had a blast, no one had to go home in the middle of the night, it was great!  I of course, had to take pictures, of which by the end of the night, Sammie was completely embarrassed.  I must be doing something right!
