Pretty Princess Afternoon

10 Replies

I have mentioned in the past, how wonderful our neighbors are. I feel so lucky to have neighbors that are nice, supportive and above all, FUN! A group of us have been forming a close relationship, to the point where my next door neighbor and I will ask any type of favor or for any item at the last minute…

Let me give you a funny example…

The phone rings at about 7:30pm, asking if we have ketchup. Ok, easy request — yes we do! I figure, I will give her the bottle and she will bring it back later. No.. her daughter (7) comes and knocks at the door, WITH her dinner plate full of food and asks for a squirt! Totally random, funny and a complete snapshot of how we work together!

So anyway, where am I going with this? This past weekend all the moms decided to head to Dallas to see Disney on Ice – Rockin’ Ever After with our pretty little princesses…

I had never been to a Disney on Ice performance before, so I really had no idea what to expect. We were able to sit about 10 rows from the ice, so the girls had a good view of all their favorite princess characters.

We had The Little Mermaid…..Little Mermaid - Disney on Ice Rockin Ever After

And then Tangled….I love the lanterns!Tangled - Disney on Ice Rockin Ever After

And the newest Princess — Merida from Brave. Brave Disney on Ice

Intermission with one of her best buds!lennox-caroline Ariel Disney on Ice Rockin Ever After Lennox was not happy that Belle was not wearing her yellow princess dress during her show, but at the end, they all came out again and she was wearing yellow!Belle Disney on Ice Rockin Ever After It wouldn’t be Disney on Ice, without the classic Disney characters – Mickey, Minnie, Donald and Goofy! Lennox did IMMEDIATELY notice that Daisy was not there… and hasn’t let it go since!disney-on-ice-rockin-ever-after

The show really was well put together and the same quality as any show at Disney World itself. I will say, it is an expensive experience if you let it be. Thankfully for us, I got discount tickets through work for everyone and Lennox wasn’t old enough to ask for 10 toys… Yes, I did still buy her a 3x too expensive stuffed Ariel – but that is all. I got out of there with only spending $30 – I call that a mommy…budget.. win!

It was a fun filled day full of little girl giggles, only a few whines and mommy eye rolls and LOTS OF FUN!

I know I have mentioned before that I love my neighbors and my neighborhood, but it just love it more and more every week! Lennox is finally opening up and being herself around everyone, and just LOVES playing with the neighborhood kids. She could play with them every moment of the day, if she had her way!

This past weekend we spent saturday evening at the neighborhood spray park again. This time we all decided to bring dinner with us, so that we could stay longer. It was such a great time. Lennox played with all the other kids for over three hours without skipping a beat.

What are the chances of getting all the kids looking at the camera and at least somewhat smiling? Pretty slim I would say! Check out Lennox in the back with her cheesy grin, what’s that all about?

So reason number 256 why I love my neighbors and neighborhood: Saturday evenings at the spray park. <3

Ps. Does anyone have recommendations for swim diapers that actually work?! I hate having to keep checking her (because i’m paranoid) so that we aren’t contaminating the water with poo. The swim diapers by Huggies and Pampers seem not to absorb or hold anything in! TMI- I know, sorry.
