Disney World--MeEtInG the ChAraCtErS

This was MY favorite princess/character to meet. She was so animated and spent a lot of time talking to the kids. Molly asked her a million questions about the "Little Mermaid" movie and Ariel never hesitated with an answer. She also hugged Ben (see other post) and kissed Sam which left a HUGE lipstick kiss mark on his cheek that he quickly wiped on to his shirt (Sam later got my camera and deleted that picture).

Molly eating up every hug and word from Ariel.

Molly showing Cinderella the emblem with a picture of Cinderella on her dress. Cinderella told Molly that she needed to get a picture of Molly for her dress. Molly asked me if I had one to give her. When I said no, Cinderella told the photographer to take a picture so she would have one of Molly.

I have NEVER seen Molly that happy.

At the Princess Breakfast. Molly asked where Snow White's dwarfs were. She replied that they were in the mine digging and would be back later for dinner. These princesses are right on their game.

Sleeping Beauty

Molly told Jasmine that she wasn't dressed very modestly. Jasmine told Molly that it was hot where she lived and she needed to wear something that she would be cool in. Later, Molly and I had a talk about how everyone has different rules than we do and that we don't judge other people.

The second Molly saw Belle, she yelled, "You're my favorite princess." Belle responded by saying that she was very lucky to be Molly's favorite.

The "wishing star" moment. Too darling (see other post).

The breakfast dinning room in Cinderella's castle. Rusty took Molly over to the window to look out and see "Fantasyland" below so she could really see that she was in the castle.

In front of Minnie Mouse's house.

We told our kids that they could get one souvenir during the trip. Molly saw this baby Minnie the first night in Disney World in our hotel gift shop. I told her to wait and see all the the many things that all the parks would have. Molly never wavered in her "want." By the third day, we got baby Minnie right outside of Minnie's house. Molly loved showing it to Minnie Mouse who held it, rocked it and kissed it in front of Molly.

Chatting it up with Mickey.

Another time when it was just me and Molly due to either being scared in a show or not wanting to ride on a ride. We loved meeting Buzz and Woody. . .although most of the line had only boys waiting in it.

This line went fast since there were not autographs involved, or chit-chat.

Meeting Mary Poppins outside of England in Epcot.

Mulan in China (in Epcot). Molly never saw this movie and wasn't sure who she was, but since we've watched Mulan and she is so glad she met her (btw. this is Rusty's favorite princess because she's strong and she wasn't snotty to her father, a la Ariel).

Winnie the Pooh guys in England's gift shop. Molly asked Tigger if he could bounce on his tail. He pointed to the ceiling and I said, "he would hit the ceiling so he can't." She's always testing them.

Brear Rabbit and Brear Bear in Animal Kingdom. Molly told them she didn't like their ride, "Splash Mountain" because it scared her.

Timon from the Lion King.

Molly, Gramma Kathy and some Pocahontas character melting in the heat in Animal Kingdom. The answer is "Yes," we did meet just about every character in Disney World and loved every minute of waiting in line, getting our autograph books ready, and questioning them about every detail of their movie.
