The Lion King

August 12, 2010

 

Waaaaaayyyyyy back in March-ish we were lucky enough to get tickets to the Lion King at the Capital Theater.

Drama and Pooh Bear have been begging (constantly) to go to a "Broadway" show. They were thrilled when they found out that the Lion King was coming and that their parents were brave enough to take them.

Can I just tell you that we had so much fun. I love taking these two, not so little any more, girls to things. They are so appreciative of everything. They loved the "fancy" restaurant, PF Changs, delicious.

 And they loved, LOVED, The Lion King. 

 Exclamations I overheard during the show...

"This is AWESOME!"

"I don't want this night to end!"

Wicked

Wicked came to the Capital Theater last night. We tried to get tickets way back in December to see it, anytime, we would have ditched church to see it, seriously. It didn't happen. The website was locked up and we couldn't get tickets, so sad. Well, Mark trolls KSL Classifieds on a daily basis and has been tracking the price of Wicked tickets that people were trying to unload. Tuesday he found some for last night (Wednesday, opening night) and snapped them up. So I got to see Wicked, finally, Happy Mother's Day to me! And my review: Loved, Loved, Loved it! The music is great and fun and the characters and plot are hilarious! Two thumbs way up! Go see it if you can.

When we got home, after 11 pm, I'm too old for late nights, the babysitter had left us this note:

"The Boss hit Drama in the lip. We put some ice on it. It should be all good."

I feel so bad for the babysitter sometimes. The girls love her but totally take advantage of her!
