Frozen Frenzy

My kids are losing their minds!  Granted they are four and five years old so that’s not a new thing in our home, but right now they are planted in front of the television watching Nancy Hornbeck sing, "Let It Go", singing a chorus of “I want it now!!!” right along with her.


Grace & Georgia are used to seeing mommy on TV.  As infants they watched me, swaddled in their daddy’s arms, early in the morning, while I delivered the morning weather for ABC news. Now they occasionally catch me on Q check or Saturday Morning Q when I’m on QVC.  It’s no big thing for them, so the fact that they have actually stopped and are giving their undivided attention to “mommy’s work” means somethings up.


What’s up, is Frozen.  Anna & Elsa came into our lives in the dark, cold days of early 2014 and they transformed my little girls.  Life turned into the movie in our home.  They were using blue blankets to dress up like Elsa, singing the songs, and wearing white gloves to control their “magic.”  We even managed to find an online copy of the movie that my girls would do any chore, at any time of the day, to earn the right to watch. 



Fast forward to the spring, and my mother-in-law planned a trip for the girls to Disney World.  All they wanted to do was see Elsa & Anna, dress up like them, talk about them…but we couldn’t find any Frozen dresses let alone a t-shirt or a pendant.  Even at the park!  There was nothing! Disney had just missed a huge opportunity in our opinion.  My mother-in-law was willing to pay whatever, to make her granddaughters' dream come true.  Finally she ended up special ordering these gorgeous Elsa dresses made by some woman overseas. 



That’s the dress on Georgia on the right.  She never takes it off!!! 


Since then we have continued to crave anything Frozen, and little by little we have seen more pop up but when QVC launched the Frozen collection on July 1st it was like a dream come true!


We have watches of both Olaf and Anna & Elsa



Wall art of the both as well.



The Olaf stuffy.



And the Elsa dress that cost more than 200 dollars less than the one my mother-in-law had to special order, but that sold out in one 5 minute airing!



We even have the movie that started it all.



And of course the pendant that had my girls mesmerized!



It comes in Olaf as well as Anna & Elsa.


We also had dolls that I hope we can get back in stock, and just about all the frozen items are on their second, third, fourth advanced order, but if you can get them, and at this price, my goodness they are worth the wait!!!


My aunties managed to advanced order my girls the pendants, and watches and the dress (before it sold out.) I can’t wait to see their faces when they open these up on Christmas (if we can wait that long.)  It’s no exaggeration that these Frozen toys are  going to be some of the hottest and most coveted toys for little girls and even boys (Olaf is a riot!) this Christmas.  Those dresses are going to be a hit on Halloween.  If I think that that my kiddos are loosing their cute little minds right now watching the presentation on television, imagine what kind of crazy will ensue when they open the real thing.  Don’t you want to be the family member that gets the kids the pony for Christmas ?  In this case anything Frozen is the Pony.
