No, I’m not talking basketball, though, I can, I will and I do. I’m talking about the week we just had around here.
Did I tell you we had tickets to so The Phantom of the Opera this week?
I’ve seen it 5 or 6 times in Chicago and St. Louis, but this is the first time it made it to Little Rock. I made Fodder order the tickets the day they went on sale in November. We chose the Thursday, March 16th show because there were some primo orchestra center seats that would have put us near the chandelier. Since it was the man’s first time to see it live, I really wanted to see his face when the Overture started.
The best laid plans of grandparents…
Our daughter was pregnant with her 2nd, and due March 19th, so for five months, I’ve been telling her to keep her knees locked together on March 16th.
Of course, the phone rang at 5am Thursday morning. Needless to say, we missed the show, but look what we got!
Yeah, a pretty good trade, I’d say. We also got to spend a few days with my little Stinker while mommy and daddy got that whole baby brother thing sorted out. Fun and fruit snacks were had by all!
And never fear…we’ll have another shot at Phantom when it swings back around to Memphis later this year. In the meantime, I need to get back on track. And I will. Right after I finish kissing all the sugar off this baby. 🙂
Yay for new babies! Yay! That’s the best kind of March madness there is! I’m so happy for all of you, and happy for me because I get to ooh and aww and coo over all the adorable pictures in store. 😀
Adorable! This is the best procrastination reason ever! Congratulations and blessings on you all!
What a sweetie! Drenched in sugar indeed. Better’n some ol’ phantom any day, right? Best wishes to everyone!
What a wonderful reason to miss a show. Such a cute picture and I look forward to seeing new ones posted frequently as he grows into the little brother Stinker.
