a "toad" ally fun night

the other night one of Justin's co-workers was kind enough to give us tickets to the Dixie State production of "a year in frog and toad". when we arrived we found that we had been given front row seats! the play was fabulous. it was obviously meant for full family enjoyment. the jokes and songs were entertaining to all ages and I must admit Justin and I laughed out loud many a time. Cole also loved it! he was so excited and was glued to the play the whole time. but the big surprise of the night was how much Ali loved it. she was captivated through the entire first act. the music started and she, while sitting on daddy's lap, began to bust out her dance moves. it was hilarious. when they flew a kite on stage, she reached out her hand to try and grab it and turned to us with a look like "this is amazing!" she only got antsy for the last 15 minutes of the entire show and that was because she wanted to walk around...and get to the stage. at intermission the snail (who was one of our favorites) came out to have some fun with the kids. when all the kids followed him up the stairs ali hopped off daddy's lap and tagged right along with cole. at the end all the characters sat on the edge of the stage to talk with the kids. cole got first dibs due to our amazing seats. the cast was so cute with him and he was awe struck. all in all great family night out.

I'm jealous! Eryn is not so good at sitting still. Cinderella or Sleeping Beauty are about the ony things she doesn't move for now. I'm getting so sick of watching them over and over...
