On our way home

Our last day on the ship - so crazy to think how fast this week has gone by! There's was one character left that Ella wanted to meet and that was Daisy Duck.
While waiting in line for Daisy, Ella saw a girl getting her hair braided and wanted to get hers done. She was so brave! The lady was not at all gentle and Ella has a very tender head. I could see her fighting back tears and she kept asking me when it was going to be over. She was excited with the finished product though!

Oceaneer Lab and Club Friendship Rocks party and show for the families. On the last day, all of the kids who participated in the Oceaneer Lab and Club get t-shirts and put on a little show for everyone in the theatre. The only way we were able to get Ella to go was because Addy was going. They had a great time!


While the girls were preparing for the show, we headed to one of the lounges and met up with Becky and Jason to play some 80's music trivia. Good thing we partnered up with them because they are true 80's music geniuses! We won! I was hoping for a free cruise for our efforts but instead we were rewarded with Disney Cruise journals. Kind of a silly prize to be getting at the end of our trip. Oh well! It was all about getting to listen to that great music anyway!





As we sat down for the last time at table 38, I had to get a picture of Ella with our server, David. I have to say that David was probably Ella's first big crush. She and the girls would tease him every night and he was such a great sport. She still blushes if you talk about him. Who knew she would have a thing for Spanish guys?!


After dinner, Ella, Addy, Sydney and Alexis got crazy on the dance floor!




And finally, Ella went to do her last pin trade. Taylor had sent a special surprise to our room earlier in the day - a Magic Moments Certificate for all of the pin trading Ella had done and it was covered in pins. Ella was so excited! Taylor was even able to find the last piece of the mystery puzzle so Ella could have a complete set. Ella delivered a special thank you to Taylor and Taylor even got a little teary eyed when Ella hugged her goodbye. Now we have more than enough pins to bring and trade on our next Disney Cruise adventure!
