Last week my mom and I took Ashlyn to Disney On Ice. I haven't been since I was 7 years old and got to blow out Donald Duck's 50th Birthday Candles...he couldn't do it himself. 
I really wanted to take Ashlyn because I knew she would love it and she's free. I can't believe they want to charge $36 for a toddler's ticket. Our seats were on the 4th row! The only thing that occasionally blocked my view was the balding man in front of me.
When we got there I told my mom that I wasn't going to buy anything and that I had snacks and a princess doll in the diaper bag for Ashlyn (Thank you Michelle for the tip!) She tells me, "Oh she HAS to have something to remember this." So she buys her a $10 sno-cone that comes in a Mickey cup. Then we get $10 Cotton Candy that comes with a princess crown with Mickey ears (retail price is probably $2)!! I told her that was enough now that she's broke! Honestly! How do families afford to go? That's almost a trip to Disneyland!
The Sno-Cone and The Crown
Anyway, it was a lot of fun and we had a great time. Ashlyn was watching so intently that I couldn't even get her to look at me for a picture. She sat on my mom's lap the whole time. The show went through a variety of Disney stories and reports say that there were over 60 different characters. They also had most of the princesses. I was disappointed that they left out Sleeping Beauty--they had Pocahontas but no Aurora?!? Now Ashlyn tells us as she waves her hand around in circles "Snow White, round and round and round on ice." I had Disney songs running through my head the rest of the night!
Here are some pictures for your enjoyment. :)
This is a TERRIBLE angle, thanks lady--you could have stood up!

good time! keenan got to go to Toy Story on Ice without us - Cuz I had bought the tickets, and then I went into Labor! So our kind neighbors tended him and got to go to the show! Then we went to Beauty & The Beast on Ice a few years ago. Kienna still talks about it. Maybe we'll go again someday! fun times! and I totally understand about them raping us with prices like that!
That is so fun! It is ridiculous how much they charge though...but it's all about the memories..right? :)
Looks so fun! It's great to make memories with your kids when they're young. Then when they're teenagers and they yell, "you don't love me." You have proof to remind both of you!
