One of my birthday presents from Scott was tickets to see Les Mis when the tour came back into town. He got tickets for the day after Evie's birthday and we figured we could have a date night and the kids would love a night with the babysitter eating mac n cheese and watching TV. Sadly, our sitter bailed at the last minute so guess who was my date tonight? She was the best!

We looked into the orchestra pit during intermission. |
Actually, our date night started off not too well. Evie is really easily scared and hates any kind of remotely scary or uncomfortable movie and so I shouldn't have been surprised that within 2 minutes of the show starting, she turned to me and said "I don't like it. I want to go home!". I promised her it would get better and then her sit in my lap while I gave her some jelly bellies for being a good sport. I planned on bailing at intermission if she didn't like it but she ended up liking it! YEAH!
So fun! Did she like the songs? Did she understand what was going on? The concept of a revolution and people being shot dead must've been pretty heady for her...
