Words I never thought I would say: "we took the kids to the symphony" (well all but Cora)
Other words I never thought I'd say "my kids were enthralled by the symphony"
We went to Video Games live ... what is it you say:
Video Games Live™ is an immersive concert event featuring music from the most popular video games of all time. Top orchestras & choirs perform along with exclusive video footage and music arrangements, synchronized lighting, solo performers, electronic percussionists, live action and unique interactive segments to create an explosive entertainment experience!
All the folks in costume were a blast and very gracious about taking pics with my kids, the Meyerson Symphony Center is GORGEOUS, We went with the cheapest seats - and to seat five together in the popular cheap seats meant we were in the VERY LAST, tip-top ALMOST IN THE SKY seats. I had some serious vertigo just sitting there. I was gripping my girls as if I was their only lifeline, and reminding Benjamin to sit very, very still. We quickly realized the lighting gear was blocking the top of the screen to the show and Kyle being my knight in shining armour when to the box office to complain...
shortly after he called on the cellie to tell us to meet him in the orchestra seating area.
We got seats worth over $300 for the price of our cheap seats. We squeezed into our new seats just before the show started!!!
Lesson: it never hurts to ask
this is Zelda.. i think

Mario - (say it in a high pitch voice in a sing song manner i.e. "its me Mario")
and Luigi
The guitar hero competition. Kyle let me down. I will work to forgive him.

Princess Peach - Not a pic for boys to join in as Benjamin protested

I love that by a twist of fate you got those awesome seats - Way to go Kyle!!! What fun for the whole family :0) A cultural experience to remember!
P.S. In about 2 years Benjamin will really wish he had taken the time to pose for a picture with Princess Peach ;0)
Is this still going on? Or is it over? That looks like so much fun!!! Super creative of the symphony.
