Where is the pearl?



Would you believe the first oyster she opened contained a silver blue pearl. AWESOME!!!!. A rare experience. The pearl is stunning. The second oyster had the usual ivory pearl but still very beautiful.





Then they play the drum to celebrate your treasure lol and everyone claps and cheers



On the way out we passed by Daisy and we just HAD to stop for another meeting... it actually turned into TWO meetings lol. We visited Daisy and then saw Stitch and then Hannah wanted to see Daisy ONE more time and since there were only two people waiting in line I figured WHY NOT.

Admiring hannah's dress



Polishing Hannah's Tiara lol






Then they twirled together

Video of Hannah and Daisy



Then we met Stitch. Hannah wanted to meet him but she was a little nervous so I had to hold on to her. but she did great. gave him a high 5 and we posed for a photo (thank you to stitchs wrangler for taking the pictures for me)



We headed back to the resort after that but there was a wrench thrown into the works. the monorail was down. ruh roh. So there I was. Just Hannah and I and a big honking stroller and I had to wrangle it onto the special bus they set up to take us to the transportation center where we could grab the other monorail (still in working order) back to the resort. I told Hannah we were going on an adventure. she was thrilled LOL and it just made me SO thankful that she is such an easy going child. I had more trouble with wrangling the stroller than I did wrangling her. She listens very well lol. It was SO hot though and first thing I did when we got back was take a COLD shower. I had to fold up the full size stroller to take it on the bus and then I had to lift it OVER my head to get to the back haha. it was an adventure alright.

That evening Grammy offered to watch Hannah while we went back to Epcot for a bit just the two of us. I think Tuesday was the greatest day. I got one on one time with my best girl and then got to spend one on one time with the best hubby I could ever wish for. the day didn't end there either.

This photo was a fun experience because there was a couple standing next to us so I offered to take a photo for them and They thanked us and offered to return the favor. I LOVE fellow Disney people. We talked to more strangers like they were friends on this trip and no one finds that strange lol. We are all friends at Disney World



We drank around the world. stopped in Canada for a Torontopolitan, stopped in Morrocco for a oasis slushie and then Brian stopped in Germany to get a beer... which he ordered in German lol. The girl behind the counter (who is from germany) was awesome and thought it was very cool that he was ordering in german so they chatted (in german) for a few moments while she poured the beer. it's little moments like that that make this place so amazing.





Brian trying the Beverly at The Club Cool. it's a neat place at Epcot where you can try different sodas from around the world. the beverly is NOT a tasty one haha





Then we headed back to the resort to make it home in time for Hallo-wishes. Wishes is the fireworks display they have every night over the castle. But Tuesday night was Mickeys Not So Scary Halloween party so they put on a special fireworks display and it... was... AWESOME. After that the whole lot of us (9 of us total) headed down to the pool for a late night swim. Hannah was going non stop from 7 am to after 11 pm. She was amazing. she did not have ONE single meltdown even though I'm sure she was totally exhausted. She hit the pillow and was out in literally 30 seconds lol.

The kids at the pool

Day 3

This was our off day. We went to Downtown Disney in the morning so Hannah could pick out something for her birthday and then we went back to the resort and had a little party for her.


REady for her birthday


Had to pose with the statues again lol








For her present she picked a bride and groom Mickey and Minnie



What a princess





Birthday train ride with daddy

[sparks19]

This was Joe the concierge at Bay Lake. When we came in that day he spent about 10 minutes chatting with us and covering Hannah with stickers lol and then he grabbed the roll of stickers and pulled it as hard as he could and where ever it stopped that's where he ripped it off. Hannah had a 10 foot strip of stickers haha



We were supposed to go over to Fort Wilderness that evening to where Brians sister was staying but by the time they were ready (very slow going... the theme of their trip lol) it was getting late and there wasn't much point so we just went swimming and took hannah for a walk around the resort to do all the stuff there

here was her cake


Happy birthday... loving it



more posing around the resort




We stopped by the arcade in the Contemporary for some fun. This game was cool. You had to stomp or hit the random lights as they light up. she loved it and she was pretty good at it lol


that night Brian and I had a late reservation for California Grill. It's a restaurant on the roof of the Contemporary Resort. While we were waiting for our turn to be seated we sat at the bar and chatted with the couple next to us and Ray the Bartender. Ray was GREAT. he made great drinks and chatted with us the whole time (without neglecting other customers of course). When we were seated our waiter came over and his name was Taz and he was also FANTASTIC. he was funny and charming without being at all obnoxious. The food was fantabulous. I had a beefsteak and heirloom tomato soup for my starter and Brian had goat cheese ravioli for his. for our entrees Brian had Bison tenderloin and I had Mushroom stuffed pasta. For desert we had a hazlenut mousse. The meal was TO DIE FOR. Hands down one of the best meals I've ever eaten.
Day 4.... our last Disney park Day. BOOHOO

We went to Hollywood studios first thing in the morning. We wanted to try to get on Toy Story Mania but good gravy it was insanity. we got there right at park opening and by the time we got to the ride it was already a 70 minute wait and a huge line for fast passes. forget it LOL



Hannah and her prince lol


The man who made all of this possible... Walt Disney. I really wish I could have met him once in my life, He seemed like such an amazing family man


This was Jedi training. Hannah didn't participate lol but we watched the other kids and what a CUTE little show it is lol. They have their jedi master that trains them and then they spar with Darth Vader

[sparks19]

Then it was time to meet Minnie. She was wearing her pink dress and Hannah was THRILLED that they matched lol.

Patiently waiting her turn






Then they posed together



more hugs



They were smitten with each other lol


Twirling... always twirling



She then wanted to meet Piglet which surprised me but I guess it's because he's pink so she was willing to overlook that piglet is a boy lol





kisses

[sparks19]

She was tryign to teach piglet how to curtsey





Bye bye piglet


We then headed to the beauty and the beast stage show. It was great. Like a mini broadway show





As you can see... Hannah loved it






YAAAY Belle becomes a princess


Time to head back for a MUCH needed nap

[sparks19]

After nap we headed back to Magic Kingdom for our last night




first thing we did was head to meet the princesses we missed our first day. Ariel was first and she was greeting with Prince Eric.

So excited


Hannah liked Eric lol. So the only males she likes to meet are princes and pink pigs haha






Next came Tiana and Prince Naveen. We didn't get to see her during our last trip so I was determined to meet her this time around. They were wonderful. She was so genuine and sweet and had such a big beautiful smile. Hannah really took to her (surprise surprise lol)
