For eight years Brendan and I have gone to Disney on Ice. It’s often fallen on or very near to Valentine’s Day, so we’ve called it our Valentine’s Day date. Some years he has dressed up, other years not. This year he decided to go all out. He used his Christmas money to get a new princess dress- Rapunzel (an old favorite going back to his 4th birthday). His newish long blonde wig he decided to style in a side braid and he spent a bit of time on his make up. He looked pretty great. Our routine is that he can choose one special thing. He chose the Rapunzel braid and braided it into his braid.

Our seats were on the floor- the third row. We were a little blocked but it was great to be so close. After intermission we moved to the front row!

I had posted pictures on Facebook of Brendan’s look. A friend saw them and let a coworker who was working the show know. The MC came over to him (the staff has a seating chart) and invited him to sit on the platform on the ice for Beauty and the Beast! How cool?! And seriously, only Brendan. A theater friend saw and got a video too.
