It has been a while since I was able to have a special night with my nieces, and I wanted to do something a little more special and a little less generic with them. Timing was perfect, because my cousin Mickey had the lead in the play "Peter Pan" at Weber State, so I immediately got tickets (good thing, because they sold out fast). This was too good of an idea, because Kimmie and Melissa wanted in on this one too, so they joined us for this one. We braved going out on a weekday, and went on Wednesday night. It was all worth it. Mickey was amazing, and the kids LOVED the play. Mia apparently had no idea that Peter Pan was our cousin until after the first act, and when the play was over, she immediately took to "crowing" just like Peter Pan, and then wondered if Mickey would recognize who we were when we went to wait for her in the Lobby. Emily Ty was funny as well, because she informed Melissa that if she were in the play, she would much rather play "Nana", which is the dog, or perhaps the crocodile. In both cases, she would be wearing a suit so nobody could recognize her, and have no speaking or singing parts. That was an interesting perspective.
In the lobby before the play, they sold a few treat items, and everyone got to pick out their own snack. Just another highlight of the night for the kids.

what a fun night for you all..
Man, I wanted to take the boys to see Peter Pan so badly, it just didn't work out with other commitments that we had *sigh*.
Peter Pan is one of those Kenna things for me. An instant reminder.
