Magic Kingdom - Day 1

Today was another rainy day but Mickey said to head to Magic Kingdom so we obliged!
We planned to spend most of the day in Fantasy Land so we head straight there and enjoyed a few rides before Parker asked to meet Ariel.
Carter seemed happy to see her too!
Carter and dad wanted a bit of excitement so they decided to check out Goofy's barnstormer ride (a little roller coaster).  
And of course there was a ride on Dumbo.    
We let the kids play in the play area for a while.  Carter insisted on yelling out to the room "Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls".
And then we headed over to meet a few more characters at the sideshow tent.
Up next a ride that mom and dad always skip... the teacups.  Grandma and Grandpa were more than happy to introduce the kids to one of their favorite rides.  The boys loved it! (This is now Parker's favorite ride and in Carter's top three based on comments heard the entire ride home).
After teacups, we had a reservation for a new attraction to us... Enchanted Tales with Belle.  They use the audience to tell the story of Beauty and the Beast.  Carter has picked to be Maurice, Belle's father.  His job was to be in jail, look scared and shake because he was cold.  He did a great job!
Parker had been eyeing the carousel since we got there so we decided to indulge him after lunch.  The boys played a same of ring around the rosey in line while we waited.  
As expected Parker loved it!
Carter was a knight riding off to battle!
The boys watched the Sword and the Stone for the first time on the way down, so they were excited to try and get the sword out themselves.
We took one last ride on the Haunted Mansion where the boys enjoyed being affectionate in line.
Before we headed back to the hotel for nap time.  We took a few castle pictures on the way out.
We have a feeling Mickey has more Magic Kingdom fun planned for later in the week so stay tuned!
