Are you and your family a fan of anything Disney?  You may be excited to know that Disney on Ice is coming to Jacksonville.  I remember going to my very first Disney on Ice event and it was just absolutely spectacular.  Not only is it exciting for the children, the adults tend to enjoy the entertainment to the fullest.  Now as a mother of three myself, I look forward to taking them to their very first Disney on Ice event.

Okay, I know that I am rambling on a little too much and you want details.  I am just so excited that Disney on Ice is coming to Jacksonville.  But if you must know the details, I guess I should give them to you.  Are you ready?  Grab a pen and paper and mark your calendars.
