LOL! We did almost the same thing.
Thursday was Claire's b-day and on Sunday we took her and 5 friends to see it. We went to pizza hut after then. They all were really godd as well, and enjoyed it. I liked it, but I don't think it was one of Disney's best. Not there worse tho either. I dod that it was back to the old style animation.

So I left off as we were about to enter Pixie Hollow. Pixie Hollow is super cute, but I was picturing it bigger. We had never visited the judges tent before, so I really had no idea. The interaction with the Fairies is very cute.
I have a video I’ll post a link to, but the background noise makes it hard to hear – but you can hear the conversation if you concentrate.
We walked into Pixie Hollow and were immediately welcomed by Fawn:
Next we moved onto Tinkerbell:
Next we were on to Terrence:
Here’s the video:

Then it was time to be heading back to the mainland.

After Pixiehollow, we stopped at the gift shop and got Maddie her ears for this trip:
Then we stopped for a tour of Minnies house:
After Minnies house Maddie, Tricia and I took two turns on Goofys Barnstormer. Maddie loved it and she said she wanted to try some bigger rollercoasters. She had ridden it on our other two trips and liked it too, but she needed to be reminded. We were done with Toontown now, so we headed back to Fantasyland for Winnie the Pooh. Before we got there though we spotted these two:
Now it was time for:
We didnt wait long for the ride and we enjoyed our time in the 100 acre wood, which was a bit longer than usual because the ride stopped a couple of times. From there we used our fastpasses on Peter Pan and then introduced Tricia to the classic that is Its a Smallworld. Maddie loved it again, of course. After that we decided to head over to Splash Mountain for a fastpass and then try Big Thunder Mountain Railroad. Maddie was feeling brave from Goofys, so she, Tricia and I got in line (Doug doesnt really do rollercoasters anymore he was never a huge fan and now he has high blood pressure and a murmur so its not worth it). I dont remember what the wait time was supposed to be, but it wasnt a walk on maybe 20 minutes. We were about halfway through the line when they came through and said the ride had broken down and we all had to clear out. By this point it was getting pretty hot and it wasnt time for SplashMountain yet, so we got some icecream and caught the end of Tianas Riverboat show:
Then it was time for us to ride Splash Mountain. When we went in 2007 Maddie loved this ride, so she was up for riding it. Tricia wasnt so sure, but she went through the line with us. When it came time to get on, she decided she didnt want to ride it, so she walked through and waited for us below. Maddie and I were in the front of the boat, Doug was behind us. Maddie was nervous the whole ride and really wasnt a fan of the dark part of the ride right before the drop then the drop came. She was so NOT A FAN! Like I said, she loved it last time, but hated it this time. I think it may be because we were in front she was not in front in 07 when we went. Here is a blurry picture of our ride photo its hard to see, but you can tell by Maddies face, she was not having fun.
We didnt get too drenched, but it didnt matter, because I had planned it for our last ride before leaving the park. At this point it was 1:30, so we headed for the bus to go back to Pop and rest. We had ADRs at Biergarten in Epcot for 6:30 and with the lack of sleep Maddie got the night before, a nap was very important. We waited about 20 25 minutes for a bus and were headed back for a rest. When we got back to the room, we got Maddie a quick snack and got her to sleep thankfully she slept a good 2 hrs. Doug and I also rested and then I got up and walked around the resort a bit to check out the view. All in all a great start to our trip!
Up next: Epcot German food and Illuminations!

Great update! Your photopass pictures turned out really cute and it looks like you had fun in Pixie Hollow.
Maddie's mouse ears are pretty cool too.
We really did!
Yes, I think he was new in October when the new movie came out. I wondered about that, I guess I'll change it.
