Disney Princesses on Ice!

For Christmas this year, Aunt Domi and I got Caroline and Abbey tickets to go see Disney Princesses on Ice...after a long wait, the day finally arrived! Abbey was so excited - she told me she couldn't wait to go ice skating with princesses...hmmm...I had to break it to her that we would not, in fact, be skating with the princesses but rather watching them skate as they sang and danced. Luckily, she still seemed excited! We got to the arena early and went down to take pictures by the ice! Here are the two princesses of the day (as a side note, my other princess and Ben went with Daddy to the Museum of Science and Industry for the day, so don't worry, they had their fun too)!

Abbey, Caroline and Aunt Domi...

Me and the girls...

My oldest princess and I...

We bought the tickets months ago, so we had fantastic seats! We were 5 rows back from the ice, on the end, and could see everything extremely well. I didn't even need my telephoto lens to get great shots!

The show went through 3 of the princess stories: The Princess and the Frog, Cinderella, and Rapunzel. The Rapunzel story was my favorite - she flew through the air with her hair!

She even used her hair to fly with Flynn Rider...

Again, just showing how close to the action we were...

It was very cool to see Maximus ice skating! Caroline asked me if he was the same horse she saw in the circus a few months ago, but I said it probably wasn't....

Then it was time for the grand finale and guess who came out...ARIEL AND PRINCE ERIC!!! The look on Abbey's face when Ariel skated out was priceless. Her whole face lit up with sheer joy and excitement and it actually brought tears to my eyes. All the other Disney princesses came out too, but seeing Ariel really topped the cake of this amazing day for her!

She then started dancing in the aisle, which was very cute, and here she is waving to Ariel (and all the other princesses too).

Caroline was waving too - and also very excited!

It was a great show and very fun for the girls to experience it together. They both came home with Rapunzel souvenir cups (that at one time had an icee in it) and wonderful memories. So fun!
