CATS!

I was thrilled to be able to take the kids to see "Cats" at Tuacahn this year! It is one of my favorite shows and I have special memories of my Mom taking me to see it, and listening to and loving the music with her. The kids and I had been listening to the music in the car for a few weeks before so they were familiar with all the songs and knew the names of all the Cats who my favorite songs are about. They were very excited to go and have this special night out. For once we were able to get there early for a show, (Ryan and I are usually racing just to make it in time!)so we had time for a little photo op. Here are a couple favorites...


The kids were so excited to be there and just giddy with excitement. They thought this was so funny.

Madi was so excited to be there for her first time, when the man doing the announcements before the show asked if it was anyone's first time at Tuacahn, she very excitedly raised her hand. It was so cute. We had the opportunity of seeing the show with the Deaf group, so it was also a great opportunity for me to watch the interpreters. They do an amazing job! At intermission a few of the cats came out for photo ops, this was great fun for the kids! Very cool.

Old Deuteronomy, quite a friendly old cat!

Rumpleteezer (I was hoping to meet Mungojerry who was played by Thayne from SYTYCD)

After the show Pierson and I got to meet two of my favorites- Rum Tum Tugger and Mr. Mistofflees
Madi was too tired for any pics at this point, but they did so great during the entire show! We loved it!
