20 blue genie's......


So I was trying to be humble about winning some tickets to Disney on Ice from one of my new favorite gal pals Cortney...(only a virtual friend right now, but will be an IRL friend soon!!!!) But she asked if I was going to post about it, so I said that I would. So Cortney this post is just for you!!! By the way, if anyone wants to check out Cortney's blog, you totally should! I love reading her posts!!!(if only...oh if only she didn't like that team up north...sigh...:):):)

So anyway, I entered a giveaway to win 4 tickets to Disney On Ice 100 years of Magic, and I won! We didn't tell the girls at all!! When we did tell them we were walking into the arena...and they were getting kind of suspicious when they kept seeing kids will dress up outfits on!! I honestly didn't dress my kids up, I did however let them wear their Mickey Mouse ears from Disney World..(really, where else are you going to wear those?)

We had really good seats..they were on the side down pretty close to the ice!

Lo was a little apprehensive because the last time we went to Disney on Ice(Princess's on Ice) She became deathly afraid of the blue genie..he was big and not a person, but a big thing that has smoke and fireworks......so when they first act came out and it was Aladdin my hubby and I looked at each other and laughed! And it was a surprise when the genie came out he was a person not a machine! She was still scared...then much to our disbelief when we looked next we saw this....

Totally Hilarious!! And Lo FINALLY looked and she laughed and thought that it was crazy!! The rest of the show was really good too! I loved the Finding Nemo costumes!!





Of course my girls loved seeing Mulan, and Pocahontas, as well as the obvious obsession with Cinderella!! Omi sat the whole time!! Even through intermission!! She loved it almost as much as they did and she is only 1! I got tears in my eyes towards the end...there is just something about watching my beautiful children really enjoy something....so many times during the show my hot hubby and I exchanged "the look"..you know the one...the one that just in a look says how much you love them and how much you love your life and how extremely blessed you are....it doesn't matter how much money we have(yeah..we have none!), we are just happy right now in our lives. We don't need material things, or wealth....we have God, each other, and our children...Thanks Cortney!!!!

YAY!! I am so glad you guys had so much fun! You know J and I gave each other those same looks at the Reds Game last week!! How truly blessed we are and I am so happy that you got to win those tix for your girls! And even though I wasn't expecting a "pat on the back" I do appreciate it! You are too silly! I can't wait to meet IRL either!
Great recap!
