Costume Day tomorrow + Maddie's dreams come true

Ah, the joys of working with preschoolers. These kids find Mickey in their cereal, soap bubbles and scribbles. They want me to tell them about Tinkerbell’s house and Ariel’s tail. They listen wide-eyed when I sing the Mickey Mouse Club theme and jump in to spell along with me. Disney’s got their numbers. Last year for Halloween we had five princesses and/or fairies and at least one Iron Man. This year I expect about the same (with at least two Rapunzels), and I can’t wait! I wore my Minnie Mouse ears last year, but I’m thinking this year I’ll wear a princess crown to fit in.
Anyway…
We gave the kids supplies to make silly monsters, and then we wrote stories about them. I got a kick out of this one. Only little boys in this family, but obviously he’s seen Tangled.
Well, except for the race car part. I'm sure Flynn would be interested, though.
I just keep thinking about this and laughing. "He's good for the princess." :) We had a silly monster named Rapunzel, and a Snow White as well.

From preschoolers to the baby in our family - my baby sister went to Animal Kingdom last week! SO happy/excited for her. Lion King is her favorite Disney movie, and animals are her passion. She's wanted to go to this park for a l-o-n-g time! I got to visit Animal Kingdom in May, so I can properly contain my jealousy (I’ll write about my whirlwind TWO-day WDW trip some other time).
She said she almost cried when she saw the tree!

I've always wanted to meet these guys. Jealous!
