I took Cora to St. George this year for her birthday. We got tickets to see The Little Mermaid at Tuachan outdoor theater. Katie's parents live in St. George and she was headed there for the weekend with her kids, so we conveniently hitched a ride with them. It was a nice little road trip and good to have some company.
Here's Cora posing by The Little Mermaid poster.
She's got a little bit of crazy eye syndrome going on but this was the best of about 20 pictures in front of the Tuachan sign.
My little Ariel...
She absolutely loved the show! I must say I enjoyed it quite a bit myself. Little Mermaid has always been one of my favorite Disney movies. The costumes were great and the singers were really talented. This was my first trip to Tuachan and I hope it's not my last. They put on a great production!
Kiss the Girl
Oh ya, did I not mention it was thundering and lightening the whole show?? I was so worried they were going to cancel it but the show went on! Literally while they were doing the curtain call it started POURING rain. Cora and I took our flip flops off and ran to the car in the rain. It was actually kind of fun.
Cora wanted to get her picture taken with Ariel and Prince Eric so before we headed to the car, we battled the horrendous line together. Probably waited about 45 minutes to get this piece of work. It was her birthday, after all.
Got a nice view of this beauty on the way back to Mama Payne's (Katie's Mom) house. Craziness! Must have been caused by lightening.
Not a creature was stirring, not even...a Zobrist kid. We got back pretty late to find these cuties fast asleep. Ella, Alaina and Ryan.
The next morning Cora and I headed out for our traditional birthday pedicure and a little back to school shopping. She starts 1st grade MONDAY!! Can you believe it?!
Pretty in pink!
We met back up with the Zobrist clan + Katie's Dad (Mama Payne is back east helping out Katie's Sister who is on bedrest, pregnant with Twins! Hang in there Melissa! And Sue!!) for a late Denny's breakfast. Mmmmmmmm.
The trip home was full of treats, Taylor Swift, Celine Dion and giggling little girls....Katie and myself included.
Ry had his DS and kept occupied taking pictures, and possibly some video, of Katie and I singing at the top of our lungs. We made sure those got deleted the minute our trip came to an end.
Road trip must haves:
