A postcard from Cinderella!!
I had wanted to post this last night but the boards were down for what seemed like forever!!
On Friday Ally & Claire received a special note from Cinderella in the mail!!! For them to receive mail PERIOD is SUPER exciting and then for it to be from Cinderella--be still my heart! The excitement on their faces said it all. (My friend Amy was in WDW this past week and I asked her to be a "fairy godmother" for the girls--she even signed the postcard by trying to emulate Cinderella's signature--how authentic!!) Ally showing off the postcard  Ally reading the note from Cinderella  Here's what it said (it was addressed to Princess Ally & Princess Claire)  Claire wanting a look!  Claire checking out the postcard (BTW--she's a bit cranky--she's been teething like crazy this week)  I think Ally was just in awe!! Can't wait until the real thing!! Coming up! More surprises from the princesses!!

Another Princess Surprise!
My friend Amy (our "fairy godmother" from the previous post) had another little surprise for the girls today! In Sunday School this morning she gave me 2 princess lollipops from WDW--she told me to give them to the girls and to tell them that they were from the princesses!! So I gave Ally hers this afternoon after church--more excitement!! (I will have to wait and give Claire hers when I can supervise her better with it. Lollipops and 17 month olds can get VERY messy and sticky!! And I am not one for big messes!!)
Ally and the lollipops (She chose the grape one)  the lollipops were tied with tulle--super fancy!!

Good morning Becky!
I just got caught up...goodness...the boards being down was not fun! Your ADRs look awesome! We did the basic DDP last trip and LOVED it! We opted for the Quick Service DDP for this trip..I'm anxious to see how it goes. We did book 'OHana for breakfast so we could do one character meal...they are so fun! I would second the suggestion made by an earlier poster to take it easy on arrival day. Enjoy the resort, hit the pool, maybe go to DTD for dinner and shopping. Then you are ready to hit the parks, refreshed, the next morning! On departure day, hit the park the girls most want to re-visit! The postcard from Cinderella looks like it was a big hit! Your daughters are absolutely beautiful! You are a blessed mommy! My kids should be getting cards next week....that will be fun! I'm looking forward to hearing more of your planning. Disney with girls must be very different than with boys!

Aww, Ally looks so excited with the postcard, and the lolipops, too cute!
Poor Claire, teething, I remember that. That's so tough! Give Claire Disney Hugs

Hey Becky! In answer to your question about Magical Express, with a 4:50 flight, you will need to be leaving on the bus a little before 2:00 (3 hours ahead of flight). Being at the Poly, it seems like you could jump on a monorail and go to either MK or Epcot and hit the highlights for 4 hours before heading back to the Poly to catch the ME.
You can hit Fantasyland and do some shopping and eat a nice lunch at the MK before heading back home and turning into pumpkins again!  Thinking about departure day is always sad! Love the postcard and the lollipops! Fairy Godmothers are so much fun, aren't they? I had a friend send some postcards to my kids before our Thanksgiving trip in 2007 -they were thrilled!  Sara
