Girls Night Out

On Saturday night, Keely and I had a special night out with her friend Annika and her mom. The girls have birthday within 2 weeks of each other so we decided to treat them to a fun night in honor of turning 6. We took the Trax downtown and headed to The Gateway for dinner. We dined at a "lovely" restaurant (the girls declared it such) called Thaifoon. Both girls are adventurous eaters so we ordered a couple of main dishes, rice, pad thai and lettuce wraps. Oh, and a couple of fruity drinks for the adults (hey it was our night out too!). After dinner we headed over to Energy Solutions Arena for our main event, Disney Princesses on Ice. I have never been to a show like this before but it was actually pretty well done. The girls were mesmerized the whole show. Lots of other girls at this show were dressed in princess gear and I was surprised that most of the people around us were not children but young adults and women. The show lasted about 2 hours with a short intermission and then we hit the Trax back to Sandy. I enjoyed reliving all of the Disney movies and singing along to the music. Keely said she did not have a favorite Princess but she enjoyed the whole event and evening. It was fun and I look forward to more events with my girly-girl :)
