The Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique =)

If you ever visit Disney World in Florida, and if you have a have a little girl, then you MUST visit the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique!  This place was beyond amazing!  I made reservations for it back at the end of January.  Their reservations fill up very quickly.  We started the morning off by getting up around 6:45 in the morning.  We had a 9:00 am appointment at the bibbidi bobbidi boutique at the Downtown Disney location.  We got there a little early and they came outside the store and got us and brought us in.  It's a little girls dream place! 


Emma's "fairy godmother" as they call the stylists was wonderful!  I cannot say enough good things about her.  She was just wonderful with Emma =)

You have your option of 3 different packages.  The coach package which included hair and makeup.  The crown package included hair, makeup and nails.  And then there was the castle package, that included hair, makeup, nails, full costume of your choice and a photo shoot.  We went with the Crown package, hair, makeup and nails!  I had bought her dress before we left for vacation.


My Emma has a lot of hair!  They give you the choice of which hairstyle you want.  Thankfully Emma picked the Cinderella style hair.  I was a little afraid she was going to choose the wacky hair with colored extensions.  haha  I prefer the more classic look, than a rock look.  And I guess Emma does too!


















Getting her nails done =) 



She was soooo excited about having this done! 




Pretty nails all done!




Getting dusted with some Pixie dust...aka lots and lots and lots of glitter!  =)






Check out that makeup!  She chose green, I was a little leary about it, but they did it very tastefully and it wasn't way bright green



I have to say that I am in love with this picture of her!  =) 




I loved the back of her hair.  It was soooo cute, loved the rhinestone mickey =)


So while Emma was getting all princessed up, one of the ladies that works there came over to Brian and I and explained how each day they pick a little girl to open the entire World of Disney Store after their princess makeover.  They asked us if Emma would do it!  I was sooo excited, but nervous that Emma would be too nervous to do it.  When we told her what they asked us she was all excited about it! 



Here she is waiting to open the store!!

They made a really big deal out of this for Emma.  They had all the World of Disney store workers come to the front of the store, and they were all clapping.  The stood there in front of the crowd waiting to get in and told them Emma's name and said she was 5 years old and on vacation with her family from Maine =)  They then looked at Emma and said, Now Emma what do you say?  Emma said, "The World of Disney is now Open!"  Then she grabbed the rope and opened the store!  It was perfect!  They gave her a certificate and a special pin for doing it.  I was sooo proud of her! =)








And here Emma is with her fairy godmother!  Love it!  Before we left they gave Emma a goody bag, that had the rest of the makeup in that they used on her, 2 bottles of nailpolish, and some diamond stickers for her face =)



And here is the store she opened!  This was such a great experience for Emma.  She was truly treated like a princess for the entire day, even after leaving there.  We went to the Magic Kingdom after this, and everyone refered to her as a princess.  She loved it!  So if you go or are heading to Disney anytime soon, you must do this with your little girls!  =)

Best Vacation Ever!!!

Hey everyone!  I'm back!  We just returned from our 9 day vacation to Disney World in Florida!  Oh my gosh we had an absolute blast!  I thought that I may have some time to blog while down there, but noooo way.  We were on the go constantly.  From 7am to 11pm every single day.  This I have to say was by far our best family vacation yet!  We went with my parents, and it was just so much fun!  I literally took thousands of photos.  Haha =)  So over the next couple of days, i'll do separate posts of our trip.   I'll start with day 1!   The night before we left Emma was sooo excited.  She had to sleep with the 2 minnie & mickey dolls that she has =)



View from the plane.  FYI, I despise flying.  And for me to take this picture looking out the window is a pretty big deal to me! haha



Finally at the hotel and enjoying a snow cone!



Riding to Downtown Disney =)




The first night we got to Florida it was really quite chilly, but boy did it warm up as the week went on!





At Goofys Candy Company.  A Mickey Mouse cake pop, let me tell you, it was sooo good!



After we left Downtown Disney we were exhausted.  We headed back to the hotel to catch some sleep so we could start our next morning out bright and early by heading to Islands of Adventure and Universal Studios!  These 2 parks are pretty cool.  But not as cool as all the Disney Parks =)





Seuss Landing at Islands of Adventure was awesome!  And we went at a great time, Emma has been learning a lot of about Dr Seuss at school =)









I saw all these little girls wandering around the park with their faces painted, and I wanted Emma to have it done too!  We found the spot and she was sooo excited to have it done!




Emma with the Cat and the Hat =)





Emma with Curious George, She loveesss him!


She loved this rollar coaster!  Much braver than I ever was at her age!


After we left the 2 parks for the day, we headed over to Universals City Walk.  It's a bunch of shops and restaurants.  We met my parents there for dinner at Jimmy Buffets Margaritaville.  Soooo good!  We ended the night with a nice drink, that was served in a blender =)



Emma was exhausted after a busy day!

I'll hopefully do another post later today about our week!  I'm most likely going to bombard you all with photos! haha  I'm sad to be home and back to reality and work.  But we had the best time, and made memories that will last a lifetime!

Now it's time to catch up on everyones blogs that I haven't read for the last 10 days or so! =)  haha
