Disney on Ice!

This afternoon we went to the Disney on Ice show at the Honda Center. We had never been before and I thought it would be a fun Holiday/Wintery activity to do with the kids. We got there early because they said there was a Pre-Princess show. Of course Kira our little princess would have to see it. It was a bit disappointing because there was no "show" but just displays of all the popular Disney Princess' dresses....

One good thing was that Cinderella was actually there waving to the crowd! Kira was soooo excited especially since Cinderella is her current favorite. She was a little "mad" in the beginning since she saw other little girls dressed in their princess dresses and Kira wasn't (she got over it).

Dad and Logan waiting for the show to start. Keep in mind.... save for this event or splurge or feed your children before or bring snacks with you!!! Popcorn was $12, Snowcones were $12, Hot Dogs were $5-$6, Pretzels were $5 and they have LOTS of fun light up toys that are $20 or more to entice your child! Luckily my kids didn't care much after the 1st or 2nd "No" to them. If it weren't for Vic I'd probably end up buying all of that for my kids just because they wanted it. I am such a softy, a sucker, a spoiler to them!

The show opened up with Disney's "Cars"! It was pretty cool to see all the "Car's" characters talking and driving around on the ice.

Lightning McQueen made a big entrance!

"The Little Mermaid" was probably all of our favorites of the day. Here's Ariel skating on TWO legs!

"The Lion King" (We were all a bit bored with this one.... maybe because the kids and Vic have never watched the movie so they didn't know the story).

The show ended with "Tinkerbell and the Lost Treasure". The kids enjoyed this one as well since this is a current movie favorite of theirs. It was a nice chilly day to get out as a family and do something together. The holidays are fun but still so stressful! Can't wait for the new year and to get to go back to visit Disneyland many, many, many times! :)
