Disney on Ice

Earlier this month I got the amazing experience of taking Avery to see Disney on Ice: Toy Story 3 at the Amway Arena here in Orlando. Our neighbors are so amazing - they couldn't go and so they gave us three tickets to see the show for free. Unfortunately, Alex had to work that night and I was really hesitant to take Avery by myself because it was a 7:30 showing... so I called a few family members that live relatively close. Because of such short notice no one was available and I decided that we had gotten really lucky with these and I didn't want the tickets to go to waste. I thought I'd just take Avery to see the first half and then we could leave at the intermission.
For a drive that is usually about 30-45 minutes, the traffic was really light and it took hardly no time to get there. We got there about an hour before the show was supposed to start and Avery had a lot of fun just watching people. The show started and it was SO exciting!! Avery got to see his favorite Disney Characters: Mickey, Minnie, Goofy and Donald and yelled out their names as they skated into the rink. He also recognized Woody, Buzz and Rex. He did so good! He sat on my lap the whole time and was almost entranced by the show. We actually ended up staying for the whole show and luckily, we had REALLY good seats and were parked close to the door and the exit; we got home in good time and we had so much fun together. I am SO glad I didn't decide not to go and SO thankful our neighbors thought of us when they couldn't use their tickets. :)






These are some of the pictures. Unfortunately, our camera was left at my parents house when we were last back home so these are taken with my blackberry ~ considering that I think some of them actually turned out pretty good. Enjoy!!
