Our dinner reservations were back over at the Grand Floridian at the 1900 Park Fare Restaurant (this is where we had the breakfast with alice and Mary Poppins). We decided to drive over with me sitting on the floor again.
This time our dinner would be with Cinderella, Prince Charming, Lady Tremaine (the stepmother) and the two stepsisters.
I told Abi that the stepsisters and stepmother were much nicer now so she wouldn't be afraid of them. What we didn't know was that one of the step sisters would become one of her favorite people!
When we arrived they were very crowded and we ended up waiting over an hour. Their computer system went down and so people were getting in before others that were there first. It was a mess. Luckily, Doug kept bugging them about our reservation and finally they took us right in when he told them it was Abi's birthday and how long we had been waiting.
During our wait we got a few more Photo pass pictures of the family in front of the tree.



I got a picture of the gingerbread house. I really meant to buy a gingerbread house out of it and I completely forgot!
The girls kept occupied by watching the cartoons...
When we got into the restaurant the first person we met was Prince Charming. Abi was a little shy with him but did talk a little.
Anastasia came to our table next. I love this picture. She was really funny and right before this picture Maddy did one of her really loud squeals. Anastasia made this face at her and then did it back.
Abi asked her if she would sing Sweet Sweet Nightingale for her and Anastasia said, "Why don't we sing it together?" So they did. I thought we were getting video of it but we didn't. It was so cute.
Anastasia left and then a few minutes later came back over and told Abi to come with her.
They were playing some music and Cinderella and Prince Charming were dancing. When they stopped dancing Prince Charming came over to Abi and bowed.
Then he asked her to dance with him.
and she said,
"No thank you."
She told Anastasia she was too shy and Anastasia said, "Well, I wouldn't want to dance with him either. He's boring."
She asked Abi if she would like to dance with her instead. Of course Abi wanted to so they twirled all over.
A few minutes later Anastasia led the kids in a parade around the room clapping and skipping. It was a lot of fun. Obviously Anastasia has become a favorite with us!
I don't have pictures of our dinner but it was typical dinner buffet food. When it was time to get dessert Abi wanted a little of everything. Of course she didn't eat most of it, but at least she had the option!
Lady Tremaine came by next. Abi asked her where Lucifer was. She said, "Well I couldn't very well bring him to dinner, could I?"
She told her that if she wanted to see Lucifer there was a statue of him next to the Wishing Well near the castle. Abi wouldn't be going back to the park but Doug and I would so I told her I would look for it.
Maddy was enjoying all the food and dancing. This was a game she was playing with Grandpa...
Cinderella came by next...
Next Drusilla came by and told Abi to keep an eye on her blue pearl necklace so that 'thief' Cinderella wouldn't steal it.
Prince Charming came by one more time and Abi told him she was just shy. He was very sweet to her... and very charming.
On our way out of the hotel we had to stop at the carriages again.
It was such a great night and Abi had a very happy birthday!!
Up next: Date night at the Magic Kingdom
