Sunday I took Riley to Disney on Ice "Dare to Dream" with Jen and Bella, it was so much fun and such an awesome girl's day with Riley. We drove down to San Jose, grabbed some souvenirs, lunch and headed down to our seats which were front and center. Probably the best seats in the house, thanks to Jen who was able to get advance purchase with her credit card. I didn't take into count how chilly it would be on the ice, it didn't even dawn on me that it could be cold. Duh, ice, of course it would be cold, but it was an awesome time none-the-less. Now I just have to get it out there that Disney is a total racket, everything is so overpriced and really how can you say no to cute little, excite 4 year olds in princess dresses that tell you over and over how much they love you!?! Within 15 minutes of being at the HP Pavilion, I had dropped at least $80. Now that I got the financial elephant in the room out there, I will say that it was worth every penny to see Riley so happy and have the quality time with her. Riley was so well behaved and spent the entire time pressed up against me just savoring the time with me. I forgot how awesome she could be since I'm constantly correcting her bad behavior but today was a glimpse of my sweet girl and I loved the one on one time with her! Riley sat in her seat the whole time and was totally into it, except for the time she turned to me and told me there was too much ice skating. Um, yeah Ri, that's why it's called Disney on Ice. It was pretty cute, but I did catch her dancing in her seat to the princess songs! Love that girl!
