Of course it wouldn't be a Disney adventure without a few costumes. So Sammy donned on her Cinderella dress to go to the Royal Ball along with her friends Reagan (Cinderella) and Ally (Snow White).
Oh yea and their moms, who are my friends Cami and Christie

The six of us then met up with seven of our Utah Valley Friends at the Energy Solutions Center. And since costumes are just not enough, our little princesses also needed their faces painted, courtesy of my friend Kayla.



Samantha had a great time, these are pictures she took of her new friends.




I wonder what kind of example I am setting for my child. She's going to start believing that every adventure must have a production associated with it. But why shouldn't that be the norm? I love being with my friends, and I'm glad that they all have daughters for my Samantha to befriend. Life is so much more enjoyable when we have others to share it with. Big thanks to all the Daddy's who didn't have to come with on this trip, even if Brett thinks I'm training my daughter to be the next generation of the SLTA.
Here's a group picture of all the Princesses and their Royal Highnesses, the Queens.

Oh yes, the ice skating was fun too. But the most memorable Sammy quote of the evening happened at the very end, when Cinderella appeared in her golden pumpkin carriage. Sammy had the saddest look on her face and her eyes were brimming with tears. When I asked her what was the matter she told me she was sad because she wanted the Prince to fall in love with her and not that Cinderella!
I'm in trouble as a mother when she becomes a teenager aren't I?
