Princesses for the day

We slept in a little bit this morning, knowing that today was going to be a BIG day!  The first thing we did when we got to Magic Kingdom was go to Enchanted Tales with Belle.  I had no idea what was in store for us.  I wasn't even sure if it was a ride or not.  Once we got inside we learned pretty quickly that it was an interactive show.  And Maura was selected to play the role of Beast!  She was chosen because of the magnificent roar she had in the prep room...and she did not hold back at all when it was time for her part in the show!  That girl can roar :)  All the kids did so well, they played their parts with minimal prompting and no practice at all.

Even Daddy had a part...he was a Knight!

After all that fun with Belle we were off to even more fun at
Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique!

What an absolutely fabulous experience...
for the girls,
and the Mommies,
and the Daddies!

The girls were pampered by their Fairy Godmother's...

They each got to choose which princess they wanted to be, what kind of hairstyle they wanted, and what color nail polish they wanted.

I wasn't sure how Audra would do, but she loved it!

She sat perfectly still...letting them do her hair, paint her nails and put on some make-up.

Maura was an experienced princess, having been to the boutique for her 4th birthday.

The BFF's...Maura (Elsa) and Tori (Rapunzel)

Once their Princess transformations were complete,

and their portraits sessions were done,

we had dinner at Cinderella's Royal Table.

It was a truly magic experience!  

To be in the castle, treated like royalty and served food fit for a Queen, while getting personal visits from many of the Princesses...priceless memories!

At the end of our long day, these two princesses walked hand-in-hand to catch their carriage (aka Disney shuttle bus) back to their castle (aka Disney hotel).
