Merida's Coronation

On May 11th Merida became the 11th official Disney Princess.  Her coronation took place in front of Cinderella's Castle at the Magic Kingdom and we were there to witness it. 

The ceremony was cute, short and sweet. Merida came in riding on a horse followed by a band and dancers. She made her way up to the castle where she joined the rest of the Disney Princesses as well as gymnast Gabby Douglas and her mom. 

The princess oath was read and then Merida's mom, Queen Elinor, showed up to officially crown her. After, Merida then proclaimed "I am Merida, and I am a princess!"

It was fun to be there for the ceremony even though it was quite crowded and hard to see. But it was definitely worth it to see all the princesses together for the first time!
