Ben's Overall Favorite Disney Memory

Not one to leave Benjamin out of the mix, Muddy surprised us all by making him a Peter Pan costume.  Unfortunately it got left behind in Delaware, so Aunt Wendy had to overnight mail it to the hotel...then the USPS lost it and sent it to Alabama (because we all know there are sooo many Walt Disney Worlds).  After quite the ordeal of tracking it down, eventually the package arrived.
Ben got his costume on mid-day at the Magic Kingdom.  He was thrilled to wear it.  Honestly, it was super cute and not too hot to wear. The only "boy" costume available at Disney is to be "pirated," but the outfits are sooo hot looking, especially in the 100 degree temps.  Muddy considered all of that before creating a Benjamin masterpiece.  Special thanks to Aunt Wendy who insisted Ben have some bracelets to wear, knowing how he likes to accessorize with Addie's.  Overall, it's quite an impressive costume-- and he was more than happy to be recognized as Peter Pan everywhere we went.  On the last day of the trip, he decided he really wanted to wear it again. No harm in that, so he did.  As you can see, he fit right in with the characters we met! Enjoy!




































































































































































































I love the fuzzy picture above. That was Tinkerbell's reaction to seeing Peter Pan in person. Her body language and posture was exactly like Tinkerbell's on the movie.  She jokingly said, "Peter you must have had a lot of extra fairy dust to shrink down to the size you are." 
*I must mention how difficult it has been to report on their favorites without giving away his costume until today. It was totally worth the wait.
