We hit Magic Kingdom today. It was SUPER HOT and the park was packed! We started over in the new Fantasyland to get fast passes for the new Ariel Ride, which happened to be broken. Nice! It was due to be up in awhile, so we still got fast passes for that and then went to the Haunted Mansion. We had a small wait for that but after we got on, it was a long ride, it kept stopping through the whole thing...LOL!
We headed back over to Fantasyland to ride a few more things. At that point Andrew, had had enough Princesses so Matt and Nikki were going to take the kids over to ride Big Thunder Mountain, since Ally was tall enough, too. Jim and I like it, but Magic Kingdom just has SO MUCH "kiddy" stuff we decided to stay behind and play in Fantasyland for Reagan. As soon as Matt and Nikki walked away we looked down at Reagan and she was sound asleep, so that killed that plan. Jim and I decided to get out of the heat and took a stroll over to the Contemporary Resort. We had a drink in the lounge of one of our favorite Disney restaurants, The Wave. It was lovely because it's a little bit dark, it was ICE cold and we were the ONLY ONES in there. We kicked back and just chit chatted while Reagan got a little snooze. We headed back to Fantasyland and rode a few things before we were supposed to meet back up with Matt and Nikki for Alexandra's birthday celebration!
We all met at Cinderella's castle to celebrate! We got right in and met Cinderella first and had some pictures taken. We got seated and soon after the waitress came over with some wands for the girls and a sword for Andrew. Nikki was also nice enough to turn one of Alexandra's "perks" into another crown for Reagan, so both girls got to wear these beautiful crystal crowns! (THANKS NIK! You are too sweet! Reagan just LOVES it!) We placed our order and suddenly the princesses started coming fast and furious. The kids were so excited to see all of them. At one point, Aurora was a few tables over and Reagan started yelling "RORA" trying to get her attention...LOL! After we finished up dinner, the server brought out Alexandra's adorable Ariel cake. It was so fun to see how excited she was. We all sang and she had a ball. The cake was delicious, too!
The photo of the day is Alexandra with the fondant banner from her cake and her beautiful crown. Happy Birthday, sweetie pie! So happy we could help celebrate your birthday at the Magic Kingdom!
