We still had not hooked up with Sum's fam so we found ourselves at the teacups and no lines. Jillian LOVED this ride. We spun and spun and spun. We probably rode it 4 times in a row because there was no lines.

| A Classic!! |
More spinning!!!
After we got off, who should we see? Alice in Wonderland and that rabbit!!! We don't watch Alice in Wonderland but who cares!!! It was just so fun meeting up with the characters. She started talking to Hadleigh.
One of my favorite pics!!!
Then we were off to fly with Dumbo!!
Then we found Sum, Bill and the boys!! It was time to ride some race cars!!!!
Waiting in the pits!!!
Bryan of course wanted to drive!!!
Summer was escorted by Gavin around the race track!! I took this picture as we were PASSING them on the track!!
Whooooo!!! Hoooo!!!
This was my driver!!!
There are the fans!!!!!
Next we had FASTPASSES for Winnie the Pooh!!!
After the ride, we were navigating our map and trying to get to Tomorrow Land. But we couldn't get there because we ran into a street party!!!! Sooooooooo fun!!!
Lots of floats filled with characters and dancing in the streets. Jillian and Gavin and Bill dancing with Timone from The Lion King!!!!
The kids were so pumped with the grand finale at the Street party. Giant cannons boomed and Mickey Mouse confetti exploded everywhere in the sky!!!
Now we found it!!!
We had our next FASTPASS for Buzz Lightyear's ride!! Rocco was beyond thrilled and seemed to be in disbelief when we saw Buzz!!!!
Jillian was ready to ride and had her guns aimed trying to find Zurg!!!
Summer, KK and Gavin were trying to find Zurg too!!!
Me and Hadleigh and Rocco were shooting at anything we could find!!!!
Evidently, when we were in the ride, outside a huge storm blew in. The lights flashed and the ride stopped. We were stuck in the ride with Zurg for a gooood 10 minutes.
When we got outside, it was pouring so we thought we would take a break and go back to the hotel for some rest and we would come back for the night events. Wellllllll, easier said than done!!!
Did I mention it was pouring???
Everyone got soaking wet!! The water on the ground was 5 inches deep and everyone's shoes got soaked!! If you were wearing Crocs, you were OK, tennis shoes, not so much!!!!
We finally returned to Magic Kingdom!!!! Hadleigh was NOT happy. It had cooled down and she was wet and we were worried she would get sick. Bryan took one for the team and took Hadleigh back to the hotel. He is the best!!!
Well, we parked our three strollers in front of the castle. We asked several of the employees what was the best spot for the parade. They did not steer us wrong. We had PERFECT seats!!!! We waited and waited!!! It started to rain again. Bill saved us and bought everyone ponchos and we were looking very stylish!!! The kids were getting antsy and Summer and I spent a small fortune on light-up toys and the kids were happy again!!!
At 9:00, the officials announced on the intercom that the parade would be delayed because of the rain. Ohhhhhhhh! We were dying!!! Would all of this waiting be for naught???? But I told you before that this was THE BEST DAY EVER!!!! And I was not joking!! The parade started about 20 minutes late!!!
Here are some highlights......
The Electric Parade was one of my FAVORITE things of the whole trip!!!! It was magical. After the parade, there is a light show on Cinderella's castle. It sounds stupid but it was UH-MAZ-ING!!!! Then the grand finale is a firework show over the castle. Again, not enough words to describe the awesomeness!!!! We got back soooooooo late and we were wet and tired but it was very very worth it!!!
One more day..........
