Disney day 3

Moving on to the next part of our trip.

Day three - we went to Hollywood Studios on this day.  My parents and brother's family were still in town, so we all went there together.

For Finley and I, our day started out at Bippity Boppity Boutique.  If you haven't ever taken your little girl to this place, you have to go.  I took Arlington and Finley in the past, but now Arlington is too old (sob!) and this is Finley's last trip (sob!).

Mat and the kids went off to the park to join the others and my dad and I took Finley to her appointment.  They have a large room that is full of chairs and all the little girls sit and get their hair and nails done by "fairy godmothers in training".  They have choices of three different hair styles they can pick, and they are all very different.

Finley chose to be a pop princess.  You have to see it to believe it.

Anyway - Finley's fair godmother called her and pulled us into a back room.  It was weird at first, and I thought we were going somewhere to wait.  She asked if I thought Finley would like to be in a special chair in the front of the store.  She said people from Downtown Disney could look in and watch her.  Finley isn't a very brave kid, but she agreed to do it.

The little area was really cool.  We had a photographer all to ourselves, and it was peaceful.  (the salon is always crowded with family and girls, and very noisy).  The fairy godmother talked and talked to Finley the whole time.  We were up on a little stage in a little room where we had plenty of room to spread out.  Having done this experience several times in the past with the girls, this was wonderful.

Finley didn't say much while we were up there.  She did talk every once in awhile, but for the most part she was quiet and just taking it all in.

When she was finished, the fairy godmother walked her back to the store to say goodbye, so she got paraded through the store.  It was pretty cute.

Once we got to the park, we had a great time.  I really like Hollywood studios.  They have a lot of great shows and some really good rides for the kids.  And at Christmas, they have the most spectacular light show you will ever see.  The Osbourne family donated all the lights that you see, and Disney has set them all to music.  The show is amazing - it is not to be missed.

We had a great time and it was sad to say goodbye to our family at the end of the night.  I am so glad we had a chance to vacation with them for a few days!

Enjoy the pictures!
