Just a quick note about our wonderful girl's night out! The girls and I got to go to a play put on by local children, and they did Sleeping Beauty! It was fun to get all dressed up and go see a play, which Teagyn has never been to. I think Calli went to one a long time ago, so this was new enough for her too. It's just a whole new experience compared to going to the movies or something. They got to see all these older kids, and some kids their own age singing and dancing, wearing costumes, etc. I think that is a really good thing for them to see, and to see if they might enjoy doing something like it. I asked Calli if she would like to take acting classes with this company, and she said- no way, it would be too hard to learn all those lines! But I'm pretty sure she might think differently if we actually put her into them! So- the real kicker to the whole evening was that during intermission, we bought a few raffle tickets. Actually, I bought one for each of us. There were two big gift baskets for the prizes, and we one the first one! It was so hilarious- Calli grabbed the ticket out of my hand after I told her we had the winner, and marched right up to the big stage, Teags very shyly following after, and went up to the announcer and grabbed her basket! She was very gung-ho... but Teagyn thought the other basket was for her, so she just sat there with a very sad look on her face. Once she turned around and realized the entire audience was smiling at her, she got a little freaked out and ran back down to our seats~ It was priceless! Plus, what an awesome basket! It had two Sleeping Beauty barbies, a very fancy wand and crown, chocolates, popcorn, lip glosses, lotions, perfumes- everything fit for a princess! We finished off our date by going to TCBY, which is a real treat, because we hardly ever go out for treats. We all wore chocolate grins home and ordered pizza for dinner- what a night!
