If you ever have the opportunity to go to Disney on Ice, take it! It is a spectacular show with amazing stages, props, costumes, and skating. It is incredibly interactive and fun for literally all ages. Here is Aladdin and
Abu when he is an elephant.
The magic carpet which genuinely flew around the ice rink.
The three fairies from Sleeping Beauty
The underwater world from The Little Mermaid
Ursula.... there were actually two different
Ursulas. The first was much smaller. Her second entrance is way scarier and more dramatic.
The seven dwarfs were adorable and perfect!
The resolution of the first 4 fairy tales
Beauty and the Beast--Belle came to the library and read for story time. My mom took
Xiana while I was a school and it was a zoo. My mom got separated from
Xiana and watched as she climbed onto a woman's lap. She was a complete stranger, but
Xiana just made herself at home. It was a good thing too because it was a while before my mom could get back to her.
Xiana is certainly not shy. The poor woman probably thought she was abandoned :)
Xiana screamed and clapped and yelled for Mickey and Minnie... she definitely knew who they were.
The
Tolmans--this was Kate's idea and I'm so glad she included us in it because it was wonderful!
Xiana got (had) to dress up as a princess. She talked about it all day. When I put on her pants and shirt in the morning she threw a fit insisting that she wear a "princess dress." It took some persuasion to convince her that we would put it on before we went to the show.
The girls looked so cute and had such a fabulous time.
The evil stepmother and stepsisters
The mice from Cinderella. For some reason Cinderella was the featured act. The entire second half of the production was solely Cinderella. This got me thinking about whether that was because it was a fan favorite or if it was the easiest to stage or what. I feel like kids like Ariel and Belle the best these days, but I don't know. I know this was the first time
Xiana had seen Cinderella and today when I put a pull up on her with princesses she pointed at it and said, "Cinderella." And she was right. We sure do start these little sponges young.
The grand finale had the best costumes of all with every couple adorned in their intricate ball gowns. It was breathtaking. It made me want to grow up to be a princess.
After the show the kids danced around for a while. It was darling. I'm pretty sure we were the very last people to leave
Lawler and it was way past bedtime, but they were having too much fun to break up.
Kate asked Charlie if he was going to marry
Xiana and he said yes... so it's settled.
They really do love each other. He is so kind to always look out for her and make sure that she's taken care of. She asks for Charlie every day.
