Disney on Ice

Friday night, we took Reed to Disney on Ice.

We went with our friends, Jeff & Meredith. They

have two boys, Braylon & Gavin. Reed and Gavin

are the same age and are in PDO together.

The afternoon started with dinner at the Spaghetti

Warehouse in downtown Memphis. The food was

delicious, and the atmosphere was perfect for families.

We actually ate in a train car, which Reed thought was

super cool. Reed told me that he wanted the train to move.

After dinner, we headed to the FedEx Forum. Reed

was so excited. He was ready to see Simba (from the

Lion King). He literally talked about Simba the

whole entire day! After the show, we stopped

by the Cheesecake Corner to get some dessert!

I must say...the best cheesecake ever!

Reed didn't last long enough to get a bite of

cheesecake because he was sound asleep by

the time we got back into the car.

Reed & Braylon had to check out all of the balls.

As soon as we made it inside, our first mission

was to get Reed a Simba! Thank goodness

they had a stuffed Simba, which I might add

has not left his side since Friday night. Simba

went to church with us, goes potty with us, eats

with us, etc.

Gavin, Meredith, Reed, & Daddy

(I couldn't ever get a picture of the boys looking

at the camera because they were so amazed with

everything there!)

We had great seats. I think we were 7 or 8 rows
from the ice!

Reed didn't take his eyes off the ice. He

literally enjoyed every minute of the show.

Mickey & Minnie started the show. Donald &

Goofy were there too. Then, it was time for the

characters from the movie, Cars! Reed &

Gavin were so excited to see Mator.

Reed kept asking where McQueen was. So

when he came out, there was major excitement

on our row!

Next, the Little Mermaid came on. Reed hasn't

ever seen the movie, but he was still mesmerized

the whole time.

Then, it was finally time for The Lion King.

Reed was super excited when they started

playing the music. He knew what was coming.

He finally got to see Simba!

Reed talked the most about the characters in

The Lion King.

The part where Simba's dad dies was really good.

There's Pumba!

The last of the show was Tinkerbell. Reed hasn't

ever seen Tinkerbell either, but he seemed to

still enjoy it. Tinkerbell lasted forever, but

we were glad when Mickey, Minnie, Goofy & Donald

came back out on the ice.

Overall, the show was great! Reed really did

enjoy every minute of it. He is still talking about it.
