Here are some highlights...
Riding the Tea Cups with Dad
Maybe the greatest highlight of the whole trip was a special VIP meeting with four of the princesses. Thanks to a special friend who happens to work at Disney (huge thank you to JW), she was able to sneak us into the castle and let Ella and Braden meet Snow White, Auroa, Belle, and Ariel! Wow, not many girls get an opportunity like this and we felt so blessed. The princesses are beautiful and so talented! I really felt like I was with royalty! We got to laugh, ask questions about all the princes, snow white whistled, and Ariel did an impression of Sebastian. It was such a magical moment and a dream come true for Ella (and mom too)!

The castle lit up at night. Incredible!
Another highlight for me was watching the light and fireworks show at the Castle during our last night. I looked down at one point and saw Ella and Braden with their arms around each other. I teared up knowing this time with them was so special. They are only 5 and 3 this one time and already getting big so fast!

Fireworks!
It was truly magical...especially to re-live the whole experience through the eyes of a 5 year old and a 3 year old. We were exhausted after it was all over, but so many sweet memories that will last forever!
