Christmas, Memphis, and Disneyworld!

Okay, so the pics are in most recent order of event!
 
We went to Disneyworld the 10th to 15th! We stayed in the Art of Animation hotel- Cars section, which was cute! The pool was the Cozy Cone hotel setting and it had the characters all over the section-  I just took a pic of Sally and Lightning
 

 
 
Day 1, we went to Epcot!  Hallie's first ride was Figment! 

 
Aida ran the Mickey Mile on Friday, so we went to the ESPN sports area for that!
 (Will ran the Marathon on Sunday!)
 
 
 
One of my favorite pics below! How sweet!
 

 
We headed next to Animal Kingdom!
 


 Hallie didn't know what to think when watching the Jungle parade!
 
 

But chocolate Mickey Mouse ears made it better!
 


 
We went on the Safari ride!  Hallie loved seeing the animals!
 
 
We went to Hollywood Studios that evening!



One of my favorite things was a place they called Disney Jr. Dance Party!  Pluto, Goofy, Mickey, and Minnie were dancing with all these little kids!   I managed to get a pic of Minnie!
 

 
Here's a quick video of the Dance Party!
 
They played "Call Me Maybe" (one of Hallie's favorite songs! and I tried to get Hallie to
sing with me!
 
 
After day one.....


 
Day 2 was Magic Kingdom!
 

 
For the Enchanced Tales with Belle, Aida, Will and Jason got to participate in recreating a bit of the Beauty and the Beast story!
 
 


 
We ate in the Beast's castle!
 
 
 
 
We met Ariel!
 
 
 
Teacups!
 
 
About 5:00 on Day 2....
 
 
Later that evening, I got Hallie on Dumbo! She liked it more than she wanted me to know!  She also enjoyed the Jungle Cruise, which had some (fake) elephants under a waterfall. She now says "Elephant's messy!" and she tips her head back and puts her lips together to do an elephant impression!  We also got her on Pirates, so she did her first hill ride!
 
 
Day 3, went back to Epcot for the Day! After the Nemo ride, they had an aquarium type setting with a cute play area for the kids!  Here's us in Bruce's mouth!
 
 
We met Aurora!
 
 
 
Hallie seemed to recognize Snow White and kept pointing saying, "Snow White!" while we waited.

At dinner on Day 3...
 
 
 
We had a great trip to Memphis after Christmas! We were excited to meet Leah!
 


 
Both Isaiah and Hallie loved the I-pad!
 
 
 
We went to a Children's museum since it rained!  It had a slide that Hallie liked!
 







 
At least we got some sort of picture with Elvis while we were there!
 
 
Christmas was great!  Here's a summary of photos!
