I'll break these into a couple different posts as not to overload you with pictures. Plus I only get a few minutes here and there to get on the computer.
Our flight left super early in the morning, so early in fact we decided to stay at hotel near the airport and take a shuttle to the airport to get an extra two hours of sleep. The girls did great despite having to get up at 4 am. Thankfully both flights were uneventful but it was a long day and almost 8 pm before we got to the rental house in Orlando.

Laureli fell asleep right away on the flight |

Claire was too excited to sleep |
Day 1 DISNEY!!

Waiting for the trams to take us into the park |

Carousel first thing. Check |
It was hot and humid. Almost 90 degrees everyday with 60%+ humidity and it rain every afternoon for a hour or so. It was a really warm rain and almost felt refreshing. We felt like the only people at the park without ponchos. Go Oregonians!

Selfie time while we wait for the rain to pass |

Waiting out a thunderstorm |

My flash was a little bright. "Arrg" she's a pirate |

Checking out the show from the best seat in the house |
PRINCESSES!! Claire's favorite part. The whole reason she came. The good part is we met three (Rapunzel, Cinderella and Ariel) and saw three more (Aurora, Snow White and Tiana). The bad part was that the line to meet Anna and Elsa from Frozen was 4+ hours. Way too long for this mama! Our plan B was to see them in the parade but it was cancelled due to the thunderstorms. Guess we will just have to go back :)

Cinderella's glass slipper |
Claire was completely enamored with them. The smile on her face brought tears to my eyes. Literally! I got teary watching her talk with them. Her face just light up. It made the hour long (we felt fortunate that it was only a hour) wait in line totally worth it.
In case you were wondering Laureli did not care for the princesses, was actually a little scared and buried her face in Dave's shoulder. Just like big sister the first time she met them. Just one more reason to go back!
