Thanks to the EXTREMELY GENEROUS early Christmas gift from my Uncle Jim and Aunt Sandy (thank you soooooooo much!), our entire family received tickets to see the Lion King here in Spokane at the Spokane Opera House, on Sunday!
The two youngest said "it was waaaay better than the movie!". William, in what seems to be the early stages of (pre)teen-hood nonchalantness said calmly "it was good".
We enjoyed it very much. It was 2 hours and 45 minutes and for the most part the boys handled it very well. Drake and Brennan were very upset when characters died, etc. And were in awe of the costumes, kept saying "That's real! that's real!". LOL.
Great experience for all.
The only negative was when I tried to get them to pose for a picture, they were a little uncooperative, so not the smiliest photos of them, but ah well. ;-)
We ate at Chilli's afterwards, which they also enjoyed.
Plus, since I said William didn't have to do Kungfu that night, he said "It's a great day today!". ;-)
