Tuesday at Epcot and Wednesday at the pool

The first thing we did when we got to Epcot was walk straight to Soarin. Elli was so excited to ride it again. Such a good ride.
After "Talk with Crush" Elli wanted a picture in the shark playland. She actually had to wait in line to get in there:)
Elli grew two inches from Oct to May so we were able to do a couple more rides. The wait was not long for Test Track, so we rode it. It was a blast!!!! Elli laughed and squealed the whole time. We rode it twice because it was so great. We were also able to ride Mission Space. Not so fun, but she was tall enough so we tried it.
More princesses. I don't think she has seen the movie of Mulan, but she likes her anyway:)
Snow White is a favorite.
We were there during the flower festival. It was beautiful!
Not sure who Marie is, but Elli wanted her picture with the white cat:) She also got her picture with Tigger and Pooh. She was afraid when they walked out but Tigger grabbed her hands and started bouncing and dancing. Elli wasn't afraid anymore. Such fun meeting new characters. She is not as nervous now.
Elli loves Mary Poppins.
So fun to meet the beast this time. She even gave him a hug even after telling me she was not going to talk to him. She started out only talking to Belle, then gave the beast a hug:)
Chip picked Elli up and spun her. She thought that was so cool!
We were sad Aladdin wasn't there. Elli was told he was chasing Abu in the marketplace. Jasmine is one of her favorite princesses along with Ariel, whom we didn't get to see.
What is a trip to Epcot without a picture in front of the ball?
Brent was ired, so we found a spot for him to sit and wait for fireworks to start while Elli and I went to meet the last few characters. Mickey again.
She was so happy to see Pluto. She even brought her stuffed Pluto purchased on our last trip here:)
Minnie again.
Donald. She even kissed him.
And the last character we mat was Goofy. He was being quite hilarious!
We stayed for the fireworks show at Epcot as well. It was another very fun and very long day, but we made more great memories!
Love this picture of the two of them playing:) We checked out at 11:00 and headed to the pool where we stayed until 6:00 pm. Long, but fun day of swimming.
Posing, again.
She lost her other characters on our last plane trip so she used some of her allowance to buy these princesses. She needed to rest a little after playing at the pool for 4 hours. She enjoyed this kind of rest time.

I LOVE these pictures!! I love how she poses like the princesses pose and she just looks so happy to see all of them. The family pictures are also so cute. And she looks so big swimming now - like she is an old pro!
