Disney Live! Rockin' Road Show - Review

This was a really great show. The show was at the Wells Fargo Theatre in Denver. It was a great venue. We were close enough to the action to feel like we were really part of the show. It was far more interactive than any other show we have been to. All my girls really enjoyed it but my 2 year old had the best time ever. Everyone was up on their feet dancing right along with Mickey, Minnie, Tigger and Woody. The audience really got into the show. Along with the dancing there was clapping to the music and lots of cheering. The show also included Cinderella and her magical voice. My girls were in awe of the princess. We all sang "Bibbidi, Bobbidi, Boo" in an effort to help her fairy godmother transform her dress into a wonderful sparkly gown for the talent show. Her dress transformed right before our eyes. Our all time favorite part though was bouncing with Tigger. He is definitely a family favorite and my girls are still bouncing days after the show.

If this show comes to a town near you I highly recommend taking your kids to see it. You will not regret it.

Back to work

I have toyed with the idea of going back to work for quite some time now. Prior to my children I worked in the video game industry. I loved my job but left to be a stay at home mom to my girls. I absolutely love being home with my girls and leaving them all day is going to be very difficult. I always knew I would go back to work at some point. The current economy is forcing those plans to come sooner than expected. My girls are older now and I have found an awesome lady to watch them. She is already a part of our family and my girls even call her Grandma. I know it will all work out for the best.

I came across a great opportunity to get back into the video game industry. There is a local game studio that was hiring. The job is going to be a challenge and I am so looking forward to it. I am nervous and excited all wrapped up into one package. I know I will be an asset. I know I will do my best and give more than 100%.

Wish me luck!

The Kindergarten Adventure

I cannot for the life of me wrap my head around the fact that my little girl is going to turn 5 this year. Where does the time go? It really does go to show you that time flies. We all know that our kids grow up in the blink of an eye. She misses the deadline for kindergarten this year by just a couple of months. I have been toying with the idea of whether to try and get her in this year or just wait it out until next year. We have really been watching her and feel she is ready to start this year.

I did some research with my local schools and found there is a program that helps determine if a child is ready for early entrance into kindergarten. I filled out all the paperwork and we go later in the month for a screening test. The one thing that bothers me about this process is the labeling put on it is "Gifted and Talented". Do I think she is gifted and talented? No. Do I think she is as ready as the other kids that are a couple of months older than her? Yes. If I didnt think she was ready I would not even bother with it. But, I do think she is ready so I have to at least give it a shot. I will, of course, accept any decision that is made. I am excited to see how it will all turn out.
