Character Dining

Although somewhat expensive, we really enjoyed the 3 character meals we did while at Disney.  The price tags may have been steep but not having to wait in line in the heat for the characters made it all worth it! And looks on the children's faces were absolutely priceless.

The very first morning, we had an early breakfast inside Hollywood Studios at Hollywood and Vine, which was great because when it was park opening time, we were already inside the park and and could race over to Toy Story Mania, easily the most popular ride at the park.

The kids had a great time dancing and singing with Jake, June, Oso and Handy Manny.







Can you believe Will ate 3 plates like this?!?!?  I don't know how is little belly holds it all.

The 2nd night, we had a wonderful dinner with the princesses at the Royal Askershus Banquet Hall. We also chose this night to have a little celebration for Avery's 3rd birthday, which was about a week later.  We had a really fun time and it was a very special evening because Cinderella was there. She is usually not part of the rotation at this dinner.

When Avery saw them coming through the restaurant, she squealed and got so excited, she fell out of her chair!!!!!









Avery tried some caviar too!

They brought out a cupcake for the birthday girl!


The last night of our trip, we went to Mickey's Backyard BBQ.  Matt and I had really been looking forward to this night.....a boat ride, good food, dancing with the characters, beer. :-)  This dinner is only held twice a week and the only night we could do it was the last night we were there. Not ideal as everyone was tired by this time of the trip. Avery fell asleep on the way to dinner!

There was a huge buffet of hamburgers, hot dogs, chicken and all the fixins'!


And frozen dessert treats!



 The kids were so tired that there wasn't much dancing going on. Avery didn't dance at all and Will danced a little with Chip and Dale and Mickey and Minnie.


They did have fun out back playing horseshoes and what not.



And of course on the playground. My don't they like playgrounds.
