Disney Store Stickermania

On Saturday Sophia had her last swimming lesson (post to come....I didn't think I was going to do one about it since I've already done two others about her swimming lessons....but she did SO good so I just have to!) but a few weeks ago I went to pick up our pre-ordered blu-ray of Lady and the Tramp at the Disney Store and inside our bag was a flyer that had all these fun things going on at the store for the month of March...which just happens to be the 25the anniversary of the Disney Store!!  For March 24th they were having a Stickermania and Storytime, something we thought that Sophia would really love so we decided that we would take her. 
I am totally a sucker for anything Disney and it is pretty much a fact that we probably spend waaayyy too much money at the Disney Store and on Disney stuff in general (Sophia has stuffed Mickey and Minnie's in several sizes and colors....pretty much most of the plush that they offer....shirts/clothing...books...we are building her dvd/blu-ray collection....that might be partially for us, whatever).....I mean, we just really love Disney at our house. I am actually trying to decide if we should go back on Wednesday morning, the actual 25th anniversary day....the guy at the store told us that the first 250 customers get free Mickey ears....and that they go fast, like get there at 9:30 and they don't even open till 10 fast.  I mean, sure, Sophia usually isn't up quite that early.  And sure, she sort of already has her own Minnie ears (personalized, that's how she rolls).  But it just seems like it would be a cool thing to do, right?! 
Anyway, back to our fun day at the Disney Store.  I was a little worried it was going to be packed or they'd be out of stickers or something since it was closer to 10:45 when we got there (and it started at 10) but it was totally empty.  I guess the flyer in the bag thing wasn't the best way to advertise...but they got me in and that's all that matters!  Next I was worried Sophia was too little to participate but nope, the guy was super nice to her, handed her the sticker sheet and gave the pencil (for writing in the story....kind of like a Disney mad lib) to Michael.  We sat right down on the floor and Michael helped Sophia with the stickers and I took some pictures.  Once she figured out that the stickers went on the poster and not her hand (which is her favorite place to put stickers these days), she had a great time.  And we had a great time seeing how much fun she was having.  And afterwards we all had fun doing a little shopping (cause there are still a few things Sophia doesn't have from the Disney store!).  Pretty much all there is left to do is show the pictures of our fun day...so here ya go! 








The last picture is some Minnie ear hair clips that we got for Sophia....we think she likes them, but we aren't sure!!! :-)
