Our Magical Disney Engagement: Part II

Now that I have completed our engagement story, I have come to the realization that it is quite lengthy  So... I will break it up into several smaller entries for your reading pleasure... Enjoy!

We arrived at the Magic Kingdom at 7:45 p.m. Corlandos and Robert scurried through the park heading towards Cinderella’s castle. We had been in the park earlier that day and had returned for an evening of fun and good food!

 I could not understand why they were in such a hurry! Tamara and I stopped to enjoy the scenery and to capture a few shots of the beautiful castle that contained over 200,000 lights. Robert and Corlandos disappeared into the crowd…

We caught up with them a few times and they continued to delay our next venture. At this point Tamara got involved and distracted me with a Disney photo shoot!  You know I am always down for a photo shoot!  I was so captivated by the beauty of the park that I failed {in all of my FBI characteristics} failed to piece together their suspect behavior. 

They finally found us after a round of picture taken and pseudo photo shoots… I was growing hungrier by the minute… To my surprise we were having dinner in Cinderella’s castle!!!

DID YOU HEAR ME???? WE WERE HAVING THANKSGIVING DINNER IN CINDERELLA’S CASTLE, AND I COULD NOT BE MORE THANKFUL!!!!

Finally, it was time to dine and we entered into Cinderella’s majestic castle. I was totally taken… I was overwhelmed… I still can not find the words to express the myriad of emotions that I felt at that very moment!

I. Me. Melanie. M’Shonta. The lil’ country girl from Greenville, AL. The self professed pageant princess was in Cinderella’s castle!

What a dream come true!!!

YOU DON’T UNDERSTAND! I WANTED THIS TO HAPPEN ALL OF MY LIFE!!!

I PRAYED ABOUT IT! I DAY DREAMED ABOUT IT! I ASKED FOR IT EVERY SINGLE YEAR THAT ROBERT AND I HAD BEEN DATING! AND FINALLY, IT WAS HERE!

I now experienced firsthand the lyrics of Kelly Clarkson’s hit, “For a Moment Like This!” I mean I can sing it from my soul!

For a moment like this… Some people wait a lifetime… for moment like this… Some people search forever… For that one special kiss…Oh, I can’t believe that this is happening to me… Some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this!

That is so true! How incredibly blessed was I to experience that moment! The moment where my dreams and reality shook hands and agreed to bring me along for the ride!

Up next, the Royal Turner family is invited to have dinner with Cinderella!
 
Just in case you missed a Magical Moment, here are the recaps!
