Disney Vacation: Magic Kindgom (3rd of 3 days)

Today was all about pampering our girls!  We started the day with haircuts at Harmony Barber Shop (We had tried to do that yesterday, but the app we were using said they were already closed by the time we headed that way.)  We rode the rides in Tomorrowland and returned to some of our favorite rides from the previous two day, including Big Thunder Mountain Railroad and Goofy's Barnstormer.  Our girls also got Mermaid Makeovers, but I'll tell more about that in the next post.  Enchanted Tales with Belle was another big hit with us.  Overall, I am so glad we have spent 3 days at the Magic Kingdom.  It's been a wonderfully magical experience.

Taking the Monorail to the park:
 The Harmony Barber Shop haircuts: Ella is wearing the striped cape, and Emma has on the blue cape.  This barber shop is very special to us.  It is the only professional stylists to cut our girls hair; giving them their first haircut when they were 19 months old.  I have cut their hair every other time.
 Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin:
 A beautiful day in a beautiful place:
 After their makeovers, we rode Big Thunder Mountain Railroad again:
 Astro Orbiter:
 Enchanted Tales with Belle was a very fun experience.  Daddy was chosen to be a guard, Emma was Chip the Teacup, and Ella was Mrs. Potts.  I was frantically trying to take pictures and video of the whole event.  They all did a great job acting their parts, and we were pleasantly surprised to have a photo opportunity with Belle at the end.
 Since we had such late nights the last two nights, we decided to head back to the resort a little earlier this evening.  On our way out, Grandy stopped us and had this magnificent silhouette made of our family.  It was amazing to watch that man work.  He took the black material and a very sharp pair of scissors, had each of us sit in order for about 5 minutes each, and cut out these silhouettes by hand.  What an amazing keepsake!  He even gave us two copies (one for us and one from Grandy and Grammie).  We will treasure it always!
 A beautiful sunset:
Riding the ferry back to the parking lot:  This picture is a bit silly, but as we were sailing away from the park, we explained that this was our last day at the Magic Kingdom.  Our sweet girls both said, "Bye!  We hope to see you again soon!" to the park.
Grandy and Grammie took the girls out for dinner, then back to the resort and to bed, allowing Daddy and I to go to Downtown Disney for dinner at Earl of Sandwich and some shopping.
