Disney continued

So I have now downloaded all my memory maker pictures and I'm still trying to somewhat organize them into day and park, but I'm away from my home computer with all 1000 pictures so these pictures are just from my phone and I'll fill in the blanks later.

Since we've been home Juliette has watched the new Seven Dwarfs ride countless times and has told me next time we will go on that. Mommy's trying to make next time happen! I'd like to go for a longer stay to have more time to relax and explore other resorts---saving starts now!!! Even Josh can't wait to go back!
Here are some pictures from Easter night after a nap and headed to Cinderella's Royal Table inside the castle. It's one of the toughest places to get into, but I made the reservations in October. It really was beautiful inside and we got to see Cinderella, Jasmine, Ariel, Snow White, and Aurora.
This was one of two times where we really thought we had lost the stroller. We were at dinner for so long that we forgot where we parked it!

Dancing with Juliette and pointing out where Gus and Jaq were hiding out.




 
Ok so the parade and fireworks (most of these pics are on Josh's phone--I'll add them later)
Once we finished Enchanted Tales with Belle around 8 we thought it would be easy to find a spot for the 9:00 parade. WRONG!! People had plopped down an hour earlier so we were squished with Disney Castmembers constantly telling people to be behind the white line...literally at one point my heel was behind the line and I got yelled at. Juliette never asked for a glow toy they were selling on those carts because I was smart and bought one at Target for $5! :) She loved having it each night. Anyway back to the parade. It was just like I remembered it and as soon as they played the song Juliette got excited since it's on her Disney cd. She was the only kid around us who knew Elliot from Pete's Dragon. I was surprised how good she was during the long wait for the parade to start and then we stayed for Wishes and Celebrate the Magic. Celebrate the Magic was amazing to watch. Movie scenes were projected onto the castle with music celebrating the magic of Disney. Of course the best part was Queen Elsa popping up singing Let it Go. Wishes is the fireworks show set to music with Jimminy Cricket narrating about wishes coming true. Juliette still sings the song that starts the show. We got to see the fireworks a few times and the parade twice. We found a good spot to see the projections on the castle on another night from the side without a ton of people. Standing from 8 until it ended around 11 was not fun, but we made it. I think this was the night Juliette fell asleep standing up on the bus! I was glad we got so much done in the morning because at night all we got in was dinner, Belle, and the shows. Thankfully our next day was our rest day with only Chef Mickey in the morning and meeting up with family in the evening.
