Me with my Big Girl... ready for our date!After the waffles were eaten and the gifts opened, Grace and I got dressed up and headed out on our date! We had tickets to see Beauty and the Beast at the Saenger Theater downtown. It was a production of the Hattiesburg Light Opera.
We also were lucky enough to get some last minute tickets from a friend to a Tea Party with the cast of the show. It was so much fun!!!
Babette, autographing our teacups!
Mrs.Potts, in a very appropriate pose :)
BELLE!!!
Yes, this was THE Belle, all the way from Disney ;)
Gaston with his sidekick, LeFou. Look at the muscles on Gaston! Grace and I talked about how cute he was the whole way home :)
One of our teacups, autographed by the cast!After the Tea, we walked to the gourmet pizzeria downtown and had lunch. Then, it was time for the show...
They sold these light up red roses as soon as you walked through the door, only $5! ;) At the end, the audience waved their roses in the air in the dark theater to help the Beast transform back into Prince Charming.I wish you all could see the show, it was FABULOUS!!! The acting, singing, dancing, and the set... all wonderful. Grace and I both absolutely loved it. It was the best Mother's Day ever :)
