Megan's Disney Birthday

We just returned from a trip to Walt Disney World. While we were there, we celebrated Megan's 6th birthday! We had a wonderful time. Grandma Ihle met us there and Aunt Cathy Bates stopped by a few days later. I'll make a few posts to cover the highlights, but this one will be about Megan's birthday. We started out at Epcot in Norway at the Akershus princess breakfast. We met Belle, Aurora (aka Sleeping Beauty), Ariel, Mulan, and Jasmine. Ryan got a kiss on the forehead from Aurora and spent the rest of the day with lipstick on his face. It was very cute. I tried goat cheese for the first, and most likely the last time. We did Epcot during the first part of the day where Megan and Declan made paper from some kind of "goo" and made robots after their robot race. We had dinner at Olivia's - the restaurant at Old Key West. Megan got a cake with candles, and the entire restaurant sang happy birthday to her. There was also this great lime tart, but that's for another post. After dinner, we went to the Magic Kingdom to enjoy the rides. We had a great seat for the fireworks! Since it was an "extra magic hours" night for the Magic Kingdom that night, we stayed until 10 pm - very late by our standards. Megan had a very special birthday. She got balloons from Aladdin and Jasmine and a card signed by all the princesses. She wore a button that said it was her birthday, so she got a lot of birthday wishes throughout the day. I can't believe the girl is 6!
