Princess Academy - Fail

So there was this event at a local high school.  The drama club was hosting a princess academy.  It was supposed to be a series of quick activities where the kids got to meet princesses and princes.  I don't know how many people they were expecting, but I'm pretty sure it was a tiny fraction of the number that showed up.  In the end it was an epic fail and there were lots of disappointed little princesses.  


I'm not sure how I took this photo. She was on my shoulders trying to get a look at Cinderella.  


The only saving grace was that she got to hold hands with Prince Charming and he complimented her on her rings.  







In an effort to save the day we went and got ice cream - even though there was snow on the ground.  There was something about the way the light came through the window hitting her little face and the pure joy she found in that twist with sprinkles.  Especially considering how sad she was.  If only ice cream had the power to heal all wounds like that.
