Here are our Kodak albums from Disney World. There are a blue million pictures, so sorry about that! (Can you imagine how many I threw away??LOL) They are Photopass first (only the better ones), then our camera photos. We had a really fantastic time!!

This is my favorite picture, taken with our own camera.

I didn't add it...it's in the albums. Our family in front of the lit castle is my favorite. There's only one of them and thankfully it turned out the best!

They're adorable! I must say that Tink doesn't look very attractive...

Your photos are just like ours always are....SOMEone always has sunglasses on, while the rest of us don't, or else we ALL have them on and it's a great photo, except you can't see anyone's eyes or whole face!! LOL!

I agree Kate...Tink wasn't cute at all. Iridessa was cute, but she wasn't in very good character. We waited the longest for the fairies, and they were the 'worst' of everyone.

IKWYM about the sunglasses. Nat and I can't live without them, and DH rarely needs them, so our pics are always like that!

Great pictures, really makes me want to go there.
One of these days we will make it.

That's funny because Tinkerbelle is pretty much a total B*&@!# to Peter Pan. I never remembered the movie so I rented it for the kids once. I could not believe what a snot she is!

I can't live with out my shades either.

LOVE the pictures! It seems like you spent a lot of time with Cindy and Belle, etc. How did you get to do that? We've been there twice and never met Cindy. But then again we didn't try very hard we were lucky when we DID see characters like Snow White, Belle, etc. We just happened to walk past them at the right time.
Looks like you had a great time. Your family is so darn photogenic! You should be in a Disney commercial or something! LOL

Patti- We met Cindy within the first hour we arrived! We had been up since 4:30am, Nat had a huge OJ stain on the front of her shirt, we looked ragged, needless to say. I sooooo wish I had thrown her Cindy dress into my backpack (into that nice little ziploc that Kate suggested!!), and we would have thrown it on her for the meeting. Anyway, she was in Toontown and that County Fair thing. One line was princesses (Cindy, Belle, Aurora) and the other was the fairies. We waited maybe 20 min. to see the princesses. They spent a lot of time with her. We have great videos of it. Cindy actually came out to get her, took her by the hand, and walked her to the little seats. She met every princess during our trip at least once. (We felt so lucky, but we've never done this character thing before so we didn't know what to expect!) She met yellow dress Belle twice, red dress Belle once, Aurora twice, SWhite twice, Mulan twice, and the others once. We didn't meet human Ariel, but saw her in a parade.

Our HUGE letdown (which Nat doesn't even know she missed) was the Dance Party at the Xmas party. We just knew it was a Dance Party, and decided to wait to see SWhite and her Prince and ended up missing it. Turns out it was CINDY, LADY TREMAINE, AND THE STEPSISTERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I literally could have cried!!!! It was a dnace party HOSTED by the Ladies Tremaine. We had no idea! We could have been rockin't with them all night long and didn't even know it. It was not advertised as that at all, just as a dance party. That would have met our hope of meeting the Cindy characters since we weren't able to get into Park Faire. What a bummer. I'm still getting over it as you can tell.

Patti - Also the Princess Akershus Storybook Dining was a joke. SUCH a waste of $$$. The princesses there were not good at all and we got little to no interaction. The ones from the lines were much better and they really spent a lot of time with her.

Deanna, I looked at your photos yesterday, you definitely have some great pics. I did notice on some of the ones that were obvoiusly PhotoPass ones, they are similar to ours, only *we* looked very bleached out in ours. And you know the ones where they have you hold out your hands and look down and they're supposed to add or Photoshop in Tink or whoever? There was one in our photos where they totally forgot, so we are gaping at our outstretched hands. ROFL!!!

You really do have some wonderful pictures to go along with your memories of your trip!

Karen- Thanks! We thought they forgot to add Tinkerbell on those, but then realized that she was just 'lost' in Natalie's Ariel t-shirt. The Simba one was cute though. All of our prints just cam yesterday so I'm sorting through.

I will have to get a job to buy the scrapbooks.

ROFL Deanna!
