Some summer fun at the pool!

Meghan has lost some of her adventurous spirit when it comes to playing in the water - she wouldn't run thru the jets but would stand beside them.

Maybe you shouldn't squirt Carter, it doens't look like he enjoys it that much...

Sun is a little bright out here!

Abby loves the water!

Meghan has a Nemo birthday party!

Here we are, showing Granny our Disney pictures.

Just hanging out with the girls, having a hot dog!

And now Josi gets to see our pictures.

Meghan gives Nunny and Papaw a hand with filling up their new swimming pool. She didn't have a good time or anything;-)

Big sister Abby gives Meghan a hand with opening her birthday presents. Thanks a bunch everyone!

Check out this cool Nemo cake! I almost didn't have a birthday cake, as some mean lady took my cake and hid it in the bottom of her cart and tried to steal it from the store. It's a good thing that Mommy and Daddy got there to pick it up when they did!

Just trying out some icing, YUMMY!

And we even got some gifts for all our friends who came to the birthday party - it was a big surprise!

Wow, check these out! We each have our own sand buckets to go to the beach and find Nemo!

Back in the pool, as it fills up a little more! Ring around the rosey anyone!

Come on in Chase, I'm sure your mom won't mind too much if you get your clothes all wet!

Are we having some fun or what!?!

And as we go down the wishlist on Meghan's shirt, her party was a hit and everyone had a wonderful time. Can you believe that she is 3 years old? Where does time go.....

Whose birthday is it anyways?!!?

Our last big Disney adventure: Bibbity Boppity Boutique!

To finish up our Disney vacation, Abby had been anxiously awaiting her appointment with the "Fairy Godmother's In Training." We saved this for last, so she could be pretty as a princess for her ride home.

And the transformation begins....

Little sister Meghan looks on. Since Meghan does not like to sit more than 5 seconds at a time, as well she has never sit in a beauty shop chair by herself yet. we did not schedule her an appointment. But when she seen all the little girls getting the hair and nails done, she decided that she wanted the same treatment. Does she do it???? We shall see;-)

And it does take two to get a girl looking like a royal princess.

Just catching up on beauty shop gossip as Abby gets ready to have her nails painted....

Make my lips pretty, ok!

And sprinkle me with Tinkerbell's fairy dust....

And there you have it....Bibbity Boppity Boo!

Complete with a sash, I am ready to be a princess for the rest of the day!

And much to the shock of Mommy and Daddy, Meghan was ready for her princess makeover. There was nothing going to stop her from getting in that chair!

The "Fairy Godmother's in Training" were instructed to work fast, as the magical spell causing Meghan to sit still may be broken at any time....

Meghan got to pick out her own tiara!

The spell is still working....

And the transformation is almost complete!

Check out my pretty pink nails!

Am I beautiful or what?

And here she is, Princess Meghan! It just goes to prove that Disneyworld is MAGIC!

One happy little girl and a proud Daddy....

And Mommy is still in shock that Meghan actually got her princess makeover!

And here we go, Meghan and Abby wanted to show the Disney Princesses that they were just a beautiful as them, so we went back to Magic Kingdom before we started the trip back home.

Princess Aurora told them both that they were beautiful.

And Cinderella thanked Meghan for FINALLY getting close enough to say hello. It took Meghan all week to get close to any of the Disney characters.

One last picture with Cinderella.

And finally, Belle got to say good-bye to these two little girls. It's safe to say that Meghan and Abb had a magical and wonderful time at Disneyworld.

Lunch at Cinderella's Caste

No Uncle Shay, you cannot pass as a princess at Cinderella's lunch!

Am I excited, YES I AM! I've waited a very long time to eat lunch in the castle. Can it be that this day is finally here?

Three excited little girls, waiting outside of the castle for our turn to go inside. Ava is overcome with excitement....

And here's Cinderella, ready to greet all of us before we are seated.

It's Snow White, dropping by to make sure that we are enjoying our royal lunch.

And Sleeping Beauty came by as well.

And Abby makes a wish upon a star during the wishing ceremony at the lunch.

And to top off the lunch we got ice cream as our dessert and it had a chocolate crown on top! The ice cream is gone, as you would imagine so I'll have to save this for later....

And while Cinderella was gone to the parade, she was nice enough to let us sit on her soft seat.

Please explain this: she is scared of all the characters, but wanted to bring the guard home with her??!! Go figure..... Regardless, this was just another highlight of our fun time that we had at Disney. This lunch is the top character meal in Disneyworld, and reservations fill up 180 days in advance. Luckily, we were able to secure a spot for lunch.

And to end the day at the Castle, the girls make some further wishes by throwing pennies into the fountain. I believe the wishes were to be able to come back and have lunch again with Cinderella and her friends. Afterwards, the girls headed back to the house for a swim what time the boys headed to the play a round of golf.
