Instead of having a birthday party, Catherine opted to attend Mary Poppins with one of her friends who also has a December birthday. We met them downtown, watched the show, and had dinner at The Lazy Goat. This was a special birthday treat by Mimi, who is very excited about going to more of these shows in the future. Jay and Steve don't love the musicals, so we figure the girls can enjoy them.
The show was great. Catherine especially liked it when Mary Poppins flew in and out with her umbrella and when the chimney sweeps danced. Parts of it were a little hard for her to follow the storyline and it was slightly different than the movie, but overall she really enjoyed the experience.
We are so fortunate to have a great performing arts center here, and lots of fun restaurants downtown too. It was a very fun way to celebrate Catherine's birthday (which yes, was in the middle of December--but I'm still catching up!).
