WISH TRIP - DAY 5 BOUTIQUE

Our next stop for the day was one that Grace had been soooooooo excited about....becoming a princess!!

I must mention our experience with Disney Magic at this point.  When we first started planning our trip, I didn't think about arranging things ahead of time.  So, in May, when I called to book things...they were already full.  Talk about a punch in the gut!  I started crying when talking to the guy at reservations.  That led me to getting the direct number to Cinderella's Royal Table.  I literally called them twice a day and left multiple messages.  Finally, Brian answered my phone call.  I explained my dilemma to him and he quickly arranged for us to have breakfast with the princesses in Cinderella's Castle.  He gave me all of his contact info and told me to call him if I needed anything else.  Fast forward a couple of weeks...and I am having no luck getting Grace booked into the Bibbity Bobbity Boutique.  So, I sent Brian an email asking if he had contacts.  And along came Rose!!  The most fabulous woman!  She was so kind.  She worked it out for both Bennett and Grace to come to the boutique...at a time that we wanted and worked with our schedule.  She waited for us to arrive so she could personally meet us.  I can't say enough about the way these people bent over backward to make this happen for us!
Not a great picture...but Rose in the glasses.
As you can imagine, the boutique is a very popular spot!  One of the Fairy Godmothers-in-Training gathered all of the kids around and did story time with them.


Bennett's transformation..... Bennett decided that he wanted to be Flynn Rider for Halloween.  I am so thankful for my friend, Kathy, who pulled off a Flynn Rider costume for me!!  They have a knight package at the boutique so that is what Bennett wanted.




Even a boy needs fairy dust!

Deep discussion about becoming a knight


And then it was Grace's turn....time to transform into Rapunzel.  (D-Daddy started calling her Repulsive at this point.)  She was thrilled!!!
Ready for her transformation

Our Fairy Godmother-in-Training, Karla

This is a look of sheer excitement!



This is true princess treatment!

This picture makes my heart happy!  Look at the way she is looking at Karla.  I love it!





This might be my favorite picture from our trip.  This is when Grace saw herself for the first time.  Look at how happy Bennett is for his sister!



Getting some fairy dust

In conversation with the girls, they were asking about Maggie.  They were insistent that we put Maggie in her Pascal costume.  I called Craig and asked him to bring her back over.  The girls LOVED it!!!
Pascal was a big hit!




They could be the stars of Tangled.

One of our favorite parts of our time at the boutique was talking to all of the Fairy Godmothers-in-Training.   They let us in on a little secret.  Flynn Rider has surprises in his satchel, but you have to ask him about it...and he doesn't show it to everyone.  We would never have known to ask him that.  I am so thankful to Rose for making sure that this happened!!
