The girls in our family were lucky enough to go to the theatre TWICE in one week!
About 4 months ago, I got a text from my oldest brother telling me to keep September 21st open, but wouldn't say why. Well.....turns out he surprised Grandma, Aunt Heidi, Alixann, Millie, and me with tickets to Mary Poppins at the Capitol Theatre! He is so generous and we love him so much!
We met at the Olive Garden downtown before the show. The timing was perfect because with Aunt Heidi teaching and the kids back in school and all of their activities, we hadn't seen much of each other. The production was fantastic - Mary Poppins movie was one of my childhood favorites {Mille too} so we really enjoyed it! Bert was exceptional.

Oh how I love Mother-Daughter dates |
Just 2 days later, the same girls {plus Quinny} traveled to St. George to see The Little Mermaid at Tuacahn. Grandma Judy was really on the ball and got tickets for a bunch of the Clark families. So we met up with the Clarks, stayed at the same hotel, and went to the show together. I was thinking Mary Poppins would be hard to beat - but this one was just as incredible! They really couldn't have done anything to make it better. We stayed to meet the characters and get photos with some of the cast. Many of them are starting to look familiar because we have made it a tradition to go to a show at Tuacahn every Fall.
On Saturday we spent hours at the pool did a little shopping. We had brunch at Village Inn to celebrate Karlee's birthday and a night run to Nielsen's Custard to top it off. Oh and a lunch date with Uncle Denny and Aunt Marcia.
It was the best of both worlds for Millie and Quincy, having the Grandparents, Aunts, and cousins from both sides! It was extra fun to have two soon-to-be family members with us...Megan and Jordan. Both Sean and Jenny are getting married in November!
BS stayed back with the boys and played & watched lots of football. Sambo and Will both opted to stay home and play their games, weren't too excited to see the play for some reason :)
