"A Year with Frog and Toad"

I took Grant to see the play/musical called "A Year with Frog and Toad" on Friday at the Des Moines Civic Center. It is based on the "Frog and Toad" books by Arnold Lobel. The books have been around since the 70's, but we just recently discovered them. They are intended as beginner reader (grades 1-3) books, but Grant LOVES listening to the stories. He also enjoyed the play and said it was, "neat!" However, he did say his FAVORITE part of our day was the sky walk! Well, at least I'm TRYING to introduce him to a little culture :)


This is one of the books.


Almost ready to go.


Waiting for the show.


The stage, we had great seats!


My little country boy in the big city!
He loved walking through the sky walk to the food court to have lunch :)


He slept all the way home, which was good because it was snowing HARD and the roads were horrible!!! This was the day they predicted less than an inch of snow and we got SIX inches!!!


And a picture of Brynna, just for fun. Most of her photos are blurry these days because she doesn't sit still long enough to get a clear picture :)
