Lion King

On Thursday Rich and I went to see Lion King at the Sacramento Community Theater. I wanted to see it when it came 4 years ago, but we had just bought the house and it didn't work out. This time I made sure to buy tickets as soon as they were on sale. I had been excitedly awaiting this day and it was well worth the wait.

I loved the show and the music was beautiful. I always did like the story and I was amazed how it was transformed into a Broadway show. The puppets were amazing. I especially liked the giraffes and elephants. I also really enjoyed the African rhythms in the drums and during Rafiki's songs.

Rich also enjoyed the show...even more than I expected. Since we both enjoyed the show we decided to order the soundtrack on Amazon for memories. The sad thing was Ava was too little to go and enjoy it with us. There were a lot of kids there, so I hope when Ava is bigger we will have the chance to take her to see the show.

I'm glad to see you guys are still taking the time to get out on your own. The hardest part for me is that Ezra will be asleep and when we go to bed I feel like I didn't get enough baby time for the day! Oh how I love that little boy. I can't wait to see Ava. Hopefully we get there before she outgrows Ezra!
