Princesses Night Out!

The big day had finally arrived. Isabelle's Valentine's Day gift was two tickets to Disney on Ice, and the extra bonus was that this year's show was called Princess Classics, tailor-made for budding royalty like our daughter! Also, the tickets were for an evening show, so she and Mom were going on a Girls Night Out while Daddy and Oliver held down the fort at home. Turns out a 7:00 show was a long wait for an excited little girl, but luckily she decided to succumb to a nap around 5:00 so no worries about her being too tired. On arrival, Isabelle picked up a felt princess sign and a much-beloved t-shirt, then sat on the edge of her seat munching her Princess Jasmine popcorn until the big announcement that the show was about to start. That was the last time she touched the popcorn. She was so enthralled with the many princess stories that she couldn't think about anything else. She got to see all her favourites on the ice: Belle, Ariel, Jasmine, Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, all of whom were awoken by their princes to end the first half of the show. Intermission time, but where was Cinderella? Isabelle and Mommy were wondering what was going on. After the break, they actually told the entire Cinderella story from start to finish, complete with the Fairy Godmother coming down from the ceiling! Isabelle was mesmerized already, but wait for the piece de resistance: all the princesses came out with their wedding dresses on! Talk about a junior princess' dream come true. She had a fabulous time and has already made plans to revisit her new best friends in Florida in a few weeks! Best Valentine's Gift Ever!
