Annie at Kingsbury Hall

On Thursday night, mom took Brynn and Abby to "Annie" at Kingsbury Hall in Salt Lake City. We went out to eat at The Spaghetti Factory at Trolley Square first. The girls acted like little ladies on their date with grandma, it was a special night. I hadn't been in Trolley Square since the shootings last year, it was a little strange, but I think they are trying hard to keep things alive there.
Getting all fancied up was fun for them.







Emily and I took Aaron shopping at Gateway since we knew he wouldn't do well at the play. He loved having alone time with the two of us. He's such a cute little tease. He had fun running around and under clothes racks and climbing in and out of his stroller. His favorite part was sitting in the chair at Gymboree to watch the movie, which we had to peel him from kicking and screaming.
Aaron found a cute little bear that I'm certain Daddy would have purchased for him, if he had been with us, that ol' softy. We still have the one he bought for Abby because he felt bad about buying Brynn a new pair of jeans and not Abby. Though, turning down those sweet brown eyes is never easy.


The funnies part of the whole night was when we picked them up after the show. Abby climbed into the van singing at the top of her lungs, "Tomorrow, tomorrow, I lub ya, tomorrow, you're only a day away...TOOOOMORROW...." It was so funny. Mom said that while they were walking out they were stuck in wall to wall people and all of the sudden she heard this little voice start belting the words spontaneously. Everyone looked down and had a good smile.

Mom said the girls did really well during the play. Abby dramatically mouthed the words during each song, pretending she was the one on stage. Too funny!

Here's a little sampler of the concert we had on the way home.

That sounds so fun. I actually sang "Tomorrow" for the second grade talent show. I love hearing Abby sing it. She has the cutest voice. Both the girls looked so pretty for their night out. Your mom is a FUN grandma.

Oh my gosh, that video is precious!! What a fun date. Maybe I'll have grand daughters to do girly stuff with someday. Sigh.

My you have been busy blogging. I loved all the new photos and posts. It really is the best way to document the lastest happenings and share the pictures with family and friends.

It looked like you had a great trip to Utah. How fun that you got to spend time with both families. I loved the idea of a date with Grandma to go see Annie, that Joseph got to spend time with his brothers, that you celebrated your dad's 60th birthday and that your kids have so many wonderful cousins to play with.

It was fun to read that Michal and her family are back in Salem. How lucky. I know Karen and Adam are there too.

I miss those lovely mountains! That's the one thing KY is missing.

Great posts!

What a fun thing for a grandma to do—I bet your girls had the best time.
