Disney on Ice

Carrie and I took our girls to Disney on Ice, while Chad and the boys went ice skating with the Cub Scouts.  I hope to get some pictures of the ice skating from a friend, but they had the best time and Chad said the boys didn't want to leave the rink even after 3 hours of skating!  I took Ressa to Princesses on Ice a couple years ago and we really enjoyed it. This year was good, but I could tell they didn't have as many skaters and props.

Lauren sat on my lap most of the time so she could see. She is such a "pipsqueak" and for some reason there were big and burly dads sitting all around us and in front of us. I think their wives told them they were going to see a hockey game and tricked them all into coming. 

Ressa's good friend came along with us. I was glad she came because at least she acted impressed at the exciting parts. Ressa sat with little or no expression and Lauren kept asking a million questions.

She wanted to know who was playing Ariel, where the "boy" went when young Simba skated out and older Simba skated back in, and how was Tinkerbell flying so high.  The only question I had was who was the genius that thought Cars would make a good ice show. They are cars. They don't skate.  They don't even have legs. Watching cars drive around in circles on the ice with random voice overs is rather dull.

I thought the Lion King section was the best. Scar was an awesome skater and the stampede scene was well done.  We had a nice afternoon all together and glad we went. Thanks, Carrie, for putting it together!
