Toy Story on Ice


On Friday I took the boys downtown to see Toy Story 3 on Ice.  I was starting to doubt my judgement in taking them both by myself as I was carrying Davis, a large tub of popcorn and a large lemonade while Carter trailed behind me tugging on my coat.  However,  I am SO glad we went to see the show--it was awesome!  We had great seats and got to see all of our favorite characters up close & personal:

We got a surprise visit from Mickey, Donald, Minnie & Goofy!


And yes, I bribed the boys with way-overpriced souvenirs during the show.  (FYI: all Disney souvenirs have a two year warranty which comes in handy when you notice on the drive home that Woody's hat is cracked in half .  One quick call to the Disney Ice show people and you will have new replacement Buzz & Woody toys in the mail to your house!)



Davis sat on my lap the whole time, mesmerized by Buzz, Woody, Slinky Dog and Rex.  He did not make a peep or any escape attempts during the entire show!  I don't know if you've been around many two-year-old boys lately, but that is saying a lot, people!

Here come the Army men!
Slinky Dog, Rex and Mr. Potato Head were the boys' faves.

Buzz Lightyear makes his grand entrance!
To infinity...and beyond!!!
The aliens & "the claw" coming down to get them.


My personal favorite, Barbie & Ken playing out the entire skit from the movie.  
Ken even modeled his many cool outfits!  So funny!

M-I-C-K-E-Y...

"Mickey's Magic Show" came to town, so Carter and I went to see some of our favorite characters LIVE on stage! It was 90 minutes of singing, dancing and wonderful Disney magic. I think I enjoyed it a little more than Carter because when I asked him what his favorite part was, he said "Riding in the glass elevator." (in the parking garage).
We were at a dinner party the other night & all the other dads were telling Sean how much fun it is to take your kids to Disney World for the first time. I think we will probably wait a couple more years for that, but that conversation and seeing this show made me super-excited for the day when we take the boys to Mickey's house (DW). I'm sure no elevator ride will be able to top that!



Checking out the stage with my new Mickey binoculars! (Yes, mommy is a sucker for souvenirs.)


Ready to go home for a nap.
