Disney Christmas

Holiday greetings!  There's nothing like taking a break from Christmas shopping and planning (with a side trip to Ft. Worth for a Christmas party) and taking a day away at the Magic Kingdom.  Children were taken out of school for a day for the occasion, because I'm a responsible parent like that.  Plus, we've learned that the beginning of December is a good time to go, because it's beautifully decorated and is before it gets really packed with everyone out of school.


We chose a perfect day.  The weather was warm when the sun was out and a bit cool when it wasn't.  We didn't have to wait more than about 10 minutes for all but one ride (Winnie the Pooh!).  This is was we got to see while on Main Street USA.



Mickey-earred wreath.  Of course.



Welcome to the Confectionary Shoppe!


I'd love a candy-themed Christmas kitchen!


These are all made with Rice Krispie treats.  I sooo want to make the packages--how easy would these be?

Hey--"Hi!" from Tomorrowland! 


We always take the ferry back to the parking lot.  (I had the girls all wear bright pink or red, so we could find one another!)  The sun is setting on a fun day.  

Unfortunately, Darling Husband was out of town, so the three girls and I went-it-alone.  We had to use our (free Candlelight) tickets before the end of the year.  It was bittersweet being with my darling older daughters, seeing all of the young families.  Time certainly flies.

  1. Oh yes, Disney is certainly a magical place. I bet it's even better during Christmas.
