Disney Princesses on Ice

On Thursday we went to see the Disney ice show, thanks to Grandma with the Red Hair. Apparently, they have several different Disney-themed ice shows going across the country. Lucky for us, the Princess show was playing in our town.

We had great tickets on the 18th row... Bell is in pink, Lady is in purple. Gretters stayed home with Aunt Marin. The girls LOVED the show, including the kettle corn and licorice we bought during intermission (and to think I never used to let them have sugar).

All the princesses were featured... Bell's favorite: Sleeping Beauty, of course!


Cinderella didn't show until after the intermission. Lady was QUITE upset when she didn't see her during the first half... as she is Lady's all time favorite princess. I think she was the stadium's favorite as well, because Cinderella got 10 times the applause that the other princesses did.

Mommy was most impressed with the large skating elephant that Aladdin rode on into the rink. It was amazing.

The finale had all the princesses (and their princes) dance in gold ballgowns and they waved goodbye from the large castle on one side of the rink. Both girls wanted to go into the castle and meet the princesses. I told them we couldn't. "Why not?" they asked. "We don't have ice skates," I explained. Bell resourcefully answered, "Maybe we could borrow some..." We didn't make it down to the castle, but we had a wonderful time watching all the princesses skate. Just enough to tie us over until the Princess Festival comes to town in June.

The ice skating show looks awesome! What a fun activity! I enjoyed the pictures and was impressed with the thought of a giant elephant ice skating too! Wow!
