a friend of mine from fort myers had posted about a lunch matinee of sleeping beauty at a local theater in july. since we would be down there i decided to see if any of the dates were while we were in town and there were! grandma thought it sounded like a great idea so we got tickets and when briana couldn't meet up with a school trip due to a dentist appointment, she was able to join us too!
the girls were very excited. briana had been there before so she acted as our guide around the theater. madelyn loves a buffet and it was filled with kid friendly foods.

the show was really good for kids. there was no intermission and it moved along quickly with lots of singing and dancing. when it was time for the kiss at the end madelyn said, "i have been waiting for this!" she really, really liked the show.
afterwards we waited in line to see the actors. the girls wouldn't take pictures or get 'autographs' from the male actors and briana lost interest after the queen, but madelyn couldn't wait to meet everyone.

when we got to the fairies we had to wait to take the picture when it was madelyn's turn because the woman behind us had the fairies start signing her playbill. she was so pushy that the fairies thought she was with us and tried to get her in our picture! rudeness is not just for the 'younger generations'....
it was pouring when we were ready to leave so i took my shoes off and left my back with grandma and the girls to go get the car. we had a great time and i am glad that it fit into our visit. love.

It was a great idea and really enjoyable. The girls really enjoyed the play.
Looks like a great girls' date :) I suggested it to Memere while she's in town but I think she waited too long and tickets are scarce
