Performing Princesses


After taking Dallin on a date a few weeks ago, Claire has been conjuring up in her mind where we would go on "our date". She made her final decision on Disneyland, until I saw that Disney Princesses on Ice was in town. We were both sold.
Claire counted down the days until our date. We woke up, put on her Tinkerbell costume, took the boys to our friend's house (thanks Duvalls) and drove to San Diego. From the moment we sat in our seats to the time we stood up to leave, Claire was enthralled.
It was pure heaven for my little 3 1/2 year old girl... ALL the Disney princesses, ice skating, music, dancing, beautiful costumes, pretty hair, cotton candy, etc.
Her very favorite moment was at the end of the show when each princess emerged from the castle with her prince in a wedding-type gown.
She would yell, "Mom! It's Belle!... Mom! It's Mulan!... Mom! It's Snow White!!! Mom was pleased to see her daughter so overjoyed... we had a super-fun girl day. I don't know how I became the luckiest girl, but I have the best dates in the world (Peter, Dallin, Claire... maybe Spencer and I will wait for the Wiggles to come to town :)).

Thanks Claire for being such a lovely date... it is heaven to have such a beautiful, sweet, happy girl.
