Disney On Ice

Since we have had Autumn, Brandon and I want to make sure Owen still knows we love him and don't ever want him to feel replaced. We decided we would try to have special nights where we take him to do something fun, just the 3 of us and get a sitter for Autumn. Well, a couple months ago we saw an ad in the mail for Disney On Ice, perfect! We decided this would be a great special night out for Owen. We invited a few friends of ours to come along and the Poe's and Altman's were in. My parents agreed to watch Autumn so we bought our tickets and after months of waiting, the night finally came. We had everyone over for Pizza before the show and then headed out for a night out with the toddlers. Wow, what a fun time. I think at first the kids were in shock but they loved it, especially when Mickey & Minnie were skating around. Owen had a little bit of a hard time sitting still, but he is a two year old boy on the move. Really what do you expect? At intermission we let Owen get a special treat, Cotton Candy & a Flounder Hat, and let him stretch his legs a bit and then headed back in for the final show. The cotton candy was a big hit with him and he loves to wear his cool new hat. All in all it was a very fun and special night for Owen.
Here is Owen and Livie playing in the backyard after dinner waiting to leave. They were very anxious to go since we were talking about it all day!
They were having so much fun together we even let them ride together on the way to the show. They looked so cute in the backseat. We put on Veggie Tales for them to watch and they danced in their seats the whole way there.
Here is the whole gang before the show. We decided getting our picture taken was a great souvenir to take home as a keepsake. I think the lady taking the picture was getting quite frustrated with the kids because they were all looking different ways, but after lots of attempts this is what we got. I think it came out rather well in my opinion.

Abby & her Daddy Andrew

Matt Kaitlyn, Livie, Laura & Andrew.

The kids were so excited to see these two!
Of course, after about 10 min into the show Livie & Owen insisted on sitting next to each other. They are so adorable.

Timone and Pumba (sp?). They were great!

One of Owens favorite parts was clapping at the end of each act. So funny.

Flounder & Ariel

And here was the final act after intermission. Peter Pan, it was awesome.
