Last night Peyton and I had the pleasure of attending Shopkins Live! When I told Peyton we had tickets to see the show I thought she was going to burst. I had no clue she would be this excited. But when I looked around last night I saw a lot of little girls that were so excited and thrilled to be at the show that they couldn't sit still. The air was filled with excitement and high energy at this … [Read more...]
Dinner and a Show: Beauty and the Beast
We are a Disney loving family, so when I saw the Chanhassen Dinner Theater was going to be performing Beauty and the Beast I had to buy tickets. Some may think I'm crazy for taking a child to a dinner theater but I think it's some of the best money I've ever spent. Plus, I'll let you in on a secret, join their mailing list. They send out offers with discounts for every show! We don't see every … [Read more...]
It’s a Peppa Pig Extravaganza!
Living in the United States makes it hard to find much with Peppa Pig and her family on it. Though I will say over the past year I have started to see more of it. Peyton has been in love with Peppa, George and all her friends for years. We've watched every single episode more than once and I can even recite a few them from memory. But beyond the television and few stray toys here and there that … [Read more...]

So I did my research and it really looked like the only way we would ever see Peppa Pig in person is … [Read more...]

Typically we see plays but when the chance to see Moscow Ballet's Great Russian Nutcracker I just had to jump on it. I've never been to a ballet either and have always wanted to. I had no clue what to expect but I was excited. When the big day arrived I dressed … [Read more...]
Bear Snores On
Peyton loves theatre so I try to take her to whatever performances we can get to. Stages Theatre is one of our favorite places to attend shows at. Why? Because the actors and actresses are children! Yes, there are some adults but for the most part there are kids acting at Stages and putting on incredible performances. Last weekend we took in Bear Snores On. You may have read the book, Bear Snores … [Read more...]
Twelve Dancing Princesses
Peyton and I love to see live performances. Tonight we attended a performance of Twelve Dancing Princesses at Stages Theatre. Usually before we attend a play I like to read Peyton the book. Not only does it get her excited to see the play but it also gives me an idea of what to expect. However, this time around that did not happen. I really had no idea what we were going to see but I was not too … [Read more...]
