Taking Gbaby to Disney...

Options
After working power restoration in S Fla for the past 4 weeks, I finally got a few days off.
 Figures that our reservation, made 3 months ago, for Bibbity Bobbity Boutique are this weekend , and Grammy has been reminding her that it was coming up. So Poppa HAD to bring her. She is 3 1/2 years old.
Now I am sitting outside the Boutique while her and Grammy and cousins are getting their hair did.
Wouldnt trade it for anything in the world.

    My girls loved that experience- you could tell they were extremely proud walking around after being made into princesses. Have fun!

    After a short power nap she made it to the fireworks.
    Poppa is a zombie today , but that smile was worth it.
    The princess outfit and makeup lasted about an hour.

    Funny you posted this. As we just got "home" about 45 min ago. We caught the last ferry to the transportation center and the last tram to the parking lot. There were only TWO cars in our lot when we got there. Just got the kids in bed and getting ready for a shower. Then start all over again tomorrow. Been here for 2 days and seems like a week already. Four more trips to the parks.

    FANCY STUFF!! I looked into taking my nieces to that boutique and couldn't get a reservation. You have to plan your whole trip around it. What a special experience for her. I can't wait to take my daughters one day!!

     let me thank you  for your assistance in getting our electric power back on down here in Florida....u guys are the best! God bless...
    Next I am smiling ear to ear as I read about ,and look at the pictures of your granddaughter....mine is 3 years old and and she calls me bubba...we took her to Disney in August...yes... August in the heat...because she smiled at me and said "bubba, we need to go  Disney  world"... My wife and I immediately left the cool mountains of North Carolina and headed home to Florida in August to take her there....
    What were we thinking?...
    it was so good we are headed back at the end of October and taking a BGE mini max as we will be camping at fort wilderness....
    for many years I never understand the old guys talking on...and on....about their grandchildren...now I get it!

    We took our grandkids to WDW a couple of Christmases back for 10 days and had a great time. I also took my granddaughter to the boutique and then we visited Animal Kingdom that day. Here are a couple of pics, one after the appointment, and one of her digging in the dirt.

    Look and see when the food and wine festival are going on in October at Epcot.  Its a great time to go.  They also have Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween party at night.  Worth the extra $ to go.  Wife and I had a great time.

    We were there for the Not So Scary Halloween party, there was a lot of great performances, both during the day and after dark. Gbaby and her cousin had a great time, not to mention walking out with 4+ lbs of candy. We only went for the day, living less than 2 hours away, but plan on taking her to Animal Kingdom next month to celebrate Grammy and Poppa's anniversary.

    If you/she enjoy Rainforest Cafe, the one at Animal Kingdom has the shortest lines I've ever seen - especially if you set yourself up for an early lunch.

    I am happy for you. Kids / family are what it is all about. I got this text from my adult son this morning. I hope you don't mind my posting it here.
