Never miss an opportunity to dress up.

That's Maddie's motto at least.  And so when her High School's Homecoming was Disney themed, OF COURSE she would be dressing up. There was no question about it. 

At first she was just going to go with a group of girls as the fairies from Sleeping Beauty no matter what, but then Nelson asked her so she had to come up with a new idea.  (side note, Nelson asked her the most hilarious way - I have her reaction on video but no pictures.  He froze a CD in a block of ice, and on that CD he had recorded his own parody of Vanilla Ice's "Ice, Ice, Baby."  It was pretty fantastic.   She answered with the "melted ice" and other things for him to make a snowman.

Her date did give her a little bit of push back since no one else in the group was dressing up, but Maddie prevailed.   She researched several different Disney-bounding type options, most of which were a little too casual, and we ended up going with a classic- Minnie Mouse.

We found a cute dress, a bow tie to match, and the cutest yellow heels.  And of course her Fairy Godmother jumped in and made it happen.

She had a magical evening.

And she was a pretty dang cute Minnie Mouse.
