lunch break

...dance class, from his perspective

...charlie had my phone during clara's ballet class tonight (do not call it, "dance," class to her, she will vehemently correct you that it is BALLET, not dance).

...and one from mommy

...six years of family photos

Everyone says it moves so fast, but when you are living the day-to-day of two young children, it's hard to realize that. So glad we take a moment each year to capture where we are as a family.

...crozen, on ice

...Friday night at about 11 p.m., I decided to surprise Clara with tickets to the 11 a.m. Saturday show of Crozen on Ice. If you aren't Clara, you probably call it Frozen on Ice.

We got there at 10:00 a.m. and found out our tickets were for the, uh, 2:30 p.m. show.

It actually worked in our favor because once Clara saw all the other girls at the arena in their Elsa dresses...

Well, she had to have one.

So we went to Target, the mall, lunch. And then back for the 2:30 p.m. show.

...and our $25 commemorative photo.

Beautiful girl.

 

She couldn't wait.

She was amazed.

And then there was me. The former competitive figure skater. Thinking the whole time, "I could've done this." (Especially when Prince Hans fell on his double axle), and then taking a moment to enjoy my $13 cotton candy.

And then it was over and Clara said, "I want to see that again. Right now. Right now. RIGHT NOW!"

We'll always have the memories. And the $25 commemorative picture.
