And then she asked to go to Disney World

THIS POST MAY CONTAIN AFFILIATE LINKS. I MAY EARN FROM QUALIFYING PURCHASES.

We went on another Mommy-#1 Date.

This time we headed to the mall.

The plan? Check out the new Disney store.

I think this picture says it all.  She was captivated immediately upon walking in.

The wonder of Disney

The magic of Disney struck her.  It bit her.  She’s been bitten by the Disney bug.

The glamour of the jewelry, the magic of Disney trees and story time, all of her favorite characters, the Princess Castle with the magic mirror.  It was…magical.

Disney..the store

She sat for story time for a good 20 minutes.  Just taking in the Winnie the Pooh story and interacting with the nice girl reading.

The wonder of Disney

She even said magic words “bippity, boppity boo” and the pages turned.  Another time, she simply just swiped her hand in the air and the page turned.

The wonder of Disney

Needless to say, she was talking about it even at bath time.

She’s already asked to go back to the mall and to the store.

But, the piece de resistance?  Mommy, “when are we going to Disney World?”

I’d better start saving my pennies..and looking for an invite to Social Media Moms at Disney.  Y’all keep me posted for next year, m’kay?

PS The new Disney store is now open at Perimeter Mall.  Let me know if you check it out.  Disney Store’s new interactive features include the Disney Store Theatre, the Disney Princess Castle with Magic Mirrors and the CARS branded Ridemakerz experience.  If you go Wednesday (3/30) the first 250 family get a special gift!

I’m linking up here.  Go and visit their Wordful and Wordless Wednesdays.

**The fine print.  We were invited to a special media night to check out the new store.  We were given a gift bag. I am under no obligation to post and all thoughts and opinions are my daughters my own.

  1. Wow! It looks like she had such a great time! You got wonderful photos of her . (And yeah. Of COURSE Disney World is next on the agenda.) Good luck with that. 🙂

    1. Thanks…we can stay with you guys, right? Aren’t you close?

  2. That’s great that she liked it so much! In her mind, it’s a magical place.

  3. I love that photo montage you made! It looks amazing!

    Wow, Izzy is getting so big 🙁 She is growing into such a lovely young girl.
    My daughter would be just as captivated if we had a Disney store close by. The closest one is 1 hr away and I have yet to take her there.

    Happy Wed!

    1. Thanks..I wanted to use a lot of pictures, but just not list them.

      It was almost an hour to the store!!

  4. We should do a family trip to Disney. It’s driving distance for all of us. Seriously, let’s plan something. We could do Thanksgiving break. It would be a blast to share that experience with the girls…and you and Papa Bear. David would love it too, really, I’m serious. We should do it.

    1. You would love that, wouldn’t you? Get the girls all hopped up on sugar and treats!

  5. Whoa. The Disney Store is looking much improved from the last time I was in one. Fancy pancy! Glad you and Izzy had fun!!!

    1. Yes, it’s way more fun for kids now, with less emphasis on all of the “stuff” to buy.

  6. Ohhhh I love the Disney store, I think I look similar to her when I walk in every time! =)

    1. I don’t even remember the last time I was in one…much cooler for me seeing it through her eyes.

  7. grandma Pat says:

    I haven’t been in a Disney Store in YEARS. I bet a lot has changed since then. Looks like you had fun. I am so glad you take time to have special dates with the girls. I am sure they enjoy it.

    Izzy’s hair is getting long. Can’t wait to see you all next week.

    1. I can’t believe how long it is, either. Yet, I have no inclination to cut it…it would just get poofier.

  8. Very cute how enthralled she is! And that looks like a super cool Disney store! 🙂

  9. That is awesome. I was going to take my 2yr old to disney and friends told me not to until she asked for it. She looks like a princess, so I say take her! Yeah, I had quite a few friends that took hold of the Disney Social Media Moms, you should definitely keep your eyes open next year. The registration was literarily closed in an hour I believe.

    1. Yeah, I think 4 would be ideal!

      I wish I would have gone to DSMM, or even known about it..if you hear about it, let me know..I’ll do the same.

  10. What a cool experience..love the photo of her..definitely caputured the love of Disney for sure!

  11. awww behold the power of disney!

    i think it might just be more powerful than cheese 🙂

    seriously can’t wait to see your girls at disney – they won’t know what hit them!!

  12. What a wonderful day for you and Isabel… that is the kind of shopping trip I would have loved. The looks on her face are amazing. She really seemed to have had a fabulous day.
    I love seeing photos of your days with your girls. =)

    1. Oh yes, it was magical…the store, and the date with her.

  13. I’m so bummed we had to miss it and again today. JaMonkey is really sick still. Loots like you guys had a blast though!

    1. Hopefully there will be something else equally as fun for y’all to make it to.

  14. The Dudes could spend all day in the Disney store. Their minds are gonna be so blown this summer when we go to DisneyLand.

    1. Oh, yeah, it sure will! We don’t tell our kids we are doing anything fun until like 2 minutes before hand…how long before will you tell them?

  15. Iz has such good taste! I’m a disney freak myself and totally get the bug she’s been bitten by <3 I hope she gets her wish!

    Love, Mere

  16. I feel like an idiot, here we have the biggest mall in America, we were there last weekend and I *never* thought to bring them to the Disney store. Looks like a ton of fun… next time!

  17. Looks like a fun store — more fun than the one we have here.

    Let me know if you do go to WDW — maybe we could meet you there!

    1. Don’t you know it…it’s definitely not in any plans right now…this year’s trip is for my sister’s wedding.

  18. save those pennies indeed. but it’s totally worth it, I promise!
