Alves shared her story on Instagram, kicking off the post with a selfie of herself in the mirror, dressed as Mrs. Claus. "Swipe left…Best moments of Last night…," she begins the post. 

The following image shows a young girl sitting on her dad's shoulders, with a sign that reads "I'm named after you, Mariah!" 

"When I arrive I saw this little girl hold a sign in a way that was so strong! It got my attention I mean look at her!! Arms straight up!! Dedicated!" wrote Alves. 

She revealed that, at one point in the concert, Mariah informs people that she'll be signing different things. Alves took that as her shot to help out the little girl next to her. "I got to get this little girl to the front and into the stage!" she wrote. 

"I asked her father, and I carried the little girl right to the front of the barricade with her dad by our side. Let’s just say we got @mariahcarey attention!!" The little girl ultimately made her way onstage, joining Mariah for a moment she and her father likely won't forget. 

Alves' love for Mariah is the perfect start to the holiday season

Alves clearly enjoyed her night and some of the surprises that Carey had in store, including performing with her own kids. "What an awesome time we all had!" wrote Alves. 

She addressed Carey and shared some positive thoughts and prepared her followers for the incoming holiday season

"Thank you for such beautiful show! And your kids performing was awesome too!!! Now… may the holiday season begin!!"
