Part of what I love about the girls' names is that they were both popular 100 years ago and many people with those names are now great-grandmas. Both names evoke a vision for me of sweet old ladies rocking away together on a porch. I pray Ella and Sadie will live meaningful lives full of love and will be enjoying each other on a front porch somewhere many years from now.

Princesses on Ice

Recently we joined a few friends to see Disney Princesses on Ice at the local Arena.  I'm a sucker for a good show especially if it involves Disney music.  My sister and I are known to break into our 20-year-old repertoire of Disney Songs loudly and often. "Colors of the Wind" anyone? "Part of your world"?  

So, given my penchant for a good Alan Menken tune, this show ended up being even better than I expected!  Complete with fireworks, pretty impressive figure skating in full costumes, and a dragon breathing actual fire on the ice, it was pretty awesome.  Oh, and Ella would want me to mention the enormous bag of Cotton Candy i got her at intermission.  That might have been her favorite part.  She did enjoy the show but she's a sucker for big bags of spun sugar too.  And it's ok because she's just beginning her schooling in the wonderful world of Disney Songs.  She's almost got down the lyrics to "A Whole New World."  That's my girl :-)
