Disney - Day 4

We got to sleep in a little bit today, which was nice. We went to Typhoon Lagoon as soon as we got up. It was amazing. I've never been to a water park quite like this. The kids LOVED it! Sawyer went down all of the water slides about a thousand times. Sadie loved the lazy river the most. We played and played in all of the water stuff until we were ALL pooped!!!! We came back to the condo and rested for just a little while before getting ready to go to the Cinderella dinner. Sadie got all dressed up in her beautiful white Cinderella gown. I pulled her hair back in a tight bun, put on a little bit of make-up, and put her crown on. She looked so beautiful!!! I almost cried. She was so confident in the sweetest way. You could just tell she was proud of herself. We arrived at the Grand Floridian for our Royal Cinderella dinner. It is such a beautiful resort. We all met and ate dinner w/ Rach, Daren, Mc and Alba, and Rach's parents. They do it so neat there! They sound a trumpet and announce each "character" before they enter the ballroom. Prince Charming was first, followed by Cinderella, then the stepsisters and the stepmother. Sadie was starstruck. It was adorable. Sawyer even enjoyed it all! All of the female characters left him BIG lipstick kisses on his cheek and he was precious. Then, Prince Charming and Cinderella do the Waltz together. It was magical. The cast all stays in "character", so it was hilarious to see the stepsisters fighting. The stepmother came over and was "mad" and made them hug and make up. It was just awesome! After dinner, the big adults came back to the condo while we all decided to go and do Magic Kingdom for a little while. We headed over and rode Dumbo, Goofy's Barnstormer (several times), Peter Pan, It's a Small World, and the Mad Hatter Tea Cups. There was hardly a wait for any of them, except for Peter Pan, but it wasn't bad. Sadie and McHaney were so excited to get to finally ride some rides together. They were so cute. We headed out of the park around 10:30 and got stuck in the LONGEST line for the Monorail. The kids were beyond exhausted, but we made it home close to midnight. We were so glad that we went, b/c we had a great time!!!!!
