Disney on Ice: Dare to Dream!!

  On March 3rd, Saturday, Alexa waited around the house all morning waiting for Grandma and Auntie to show up to our house so we could go to Disney on Ice!! She has been counting down the days since before her birthday and today was the day!!  Once Grandma and Auntie got here, she was ready to leave right away!! But.. she had to wait just a little bit longer till it was time to leave. The show was at 3pm and we weren't leaving till 2pm. We got there early, found our seats, and waited for the Princesses to come out.


  First the show started with Mickey, Minnie, Donald, and Goofy coming out and telling us some hints of the princess that was coming out first. It was the princess that brought JAZZ!!  TIANA!!! Alexa was super excited and had a hard time sitting in her seat the entire time. By the time Tiana was almost done she was ready to see Rapunzel! But CINDERELLA came out next leaving the suspense left for Rapunzel at the end. Tiana and Cinderella were amazing and so fun to watch!! I loved how they did the transformation back and forth between Tiana and Naven becoming frogs! And I really loved Cinderella's coach with the white horses!





  Half way through Cinderella they did a little break so they could clean the ice and have a bathroom break for all those little ones there. We got up to stretch our legs and go look at the items they were selling.  I wanted to get Alexa a little souvenir from there and she found the perfect one! It is a Rapunzel cup with a straw that has Pascal on it. It had ice slushy in it with the colors red/yellow/blue for flavors (unsure what they tasted like). I wanted to get a picture of her with it there but by the time we ate the top portion of it off and I was trying to wipe off the sticky mess I created on my hands the show was starting again.


  Finally the big finish had came.. RAPUNZEL!!  Alexa couldn't contain herself she was so excited Rapunzel finally came!!  She was wrapped so tight around my neck with excitement I could barely take pictures. :)  The Rapunzel part of the show was Truly Amazing! Fantastic!! All of us were full of excitement during the show we couldn't sit still in our seats!   They had Flynn Rider drop from the ceiling to grab the crown of the pedestal, they had Maximus!!  They did the snuggly duckling scene!  They had a lantern they flew up to the ceiling and lanterns hanging from the ceiling to create the scene from the movie!! They had Flynn Rider and Rapunzel flying around in mid air on "Rapunzel's hair"!! It was mind blowing and such amazing talent!  They even showed Rapunzel when her hair gets cut off and turns brown.






At the end of Rapunzel Mickey and Minne Mouse came out and introduced ALL the Disney Princesses and Princes!! 
BELLE, SNOW WHITE, AURORA, MULAN, JASMINE,
THEN OUT CAME.. CINDERELLA, TIANA, AND RAPUNZEL!!!

Belle, Ariel, snow white, Cinderella, Mulan, Aurora

Flynn Rider and Rapunzel, Tiana, and Jasime

The big finish with them dancing, Mickey and Minnie, and the Fireworks


Alexa waving good by to all the Princesses
Alexa waved non- stop to all the princesses and princes and then Mickey and Minnie came again for the finally close. They all went into the castle and waved at the audience good-bye. When it was time for us to leave Alexa bursted into tears! She was so upset that she couldn't see the princesses and get her picture taken with them. She hoped the entire time up until then that she would get her picture taken with Rapunzel and Flynn. She was told that we didn't know if they would do that or not, but at the moment her little heart was broken and did not understand. We felt so bad for her, but just after leaving the parking lot she fell asleep and slept all the way home.
