Spring Break 2017 - Disney Cruise!

This year for Spring Break we took the girls on a Disney Cruise. We left early Monday morning for Orlando, drove an hour to Cape Canaveral, boarded the biggest ship I've ever seen, and spent 4 days cruising to the Bahamas and back. It was pretty amazing. The general theme of the week of Princesses - we all got our fill. Lauren was in dress up heaven, and although Sophie is getting a little old for princesses, she got into it on board (how can you not?).

The girls had a meet and greet with all of the princesses at the bottom of the grand stairs. Here they are with Belle. When not wearing a bathing suit Lauren was wearing her own princess dresses. Like I said, princess heaven. 

The ship made 2 stops - Nassau, where we didn't get off; and Castaway Cay, Disney's own island, where we did get off. We spent a few hours swimming in beautiful, clear water. Sophie and Dave went snorkeling and the girls got their hair braided (you can see in this picture). That morning Dave and I also did a 5K on the island while the kids hung out int he kids-only area. 

The girls also got Princess makeovers in the Bibbidy Bobbidy Boutique - Lauren decided to be Princess Minnie and Sophie was Princess Tiana. Here's Lauren in her Princess Minnie dress with the celebrity herself. 

And the last princess thing we did was tea with Tiana, Cinderella, and Belle. Here are the girls with Tiana. Yes, it was all a bit over the top, but we couldn't resist.
