Getting ready to hit the road (and we must have been distracted by picture taking, because when we arrived home at 9:30pm that night, our front door was open, and I don't mean just unlocked. I mean open, as in about two feet, with a clear view of the foyer. one more perk of living on post - there was absolutely no concern that there would be any issues, we just felt a little stupid)
Horsing around pre-show at the American Tobacco Historic District (which, btw, didn't exist when I was at Duke, but is a cool area right next to the "new" Bulls Stadium, and it's our favorite place to hangout before going to a Bulls game or before catching a show at Durham Performing Arts Center, which also didn't exist when I was at Duke. To sum it up, Durham is much cooler now than in the early '90s)
Getting ready for the show to start
Sawyer made it through about three numbers before Charlie escaped with her out to the lobby. She had much more fun playing out there while Dad watched the remainder of the show on the TV screen (before you ask why we brought an 18 month old to a show, we tried to leave her at home with a babysitter, but the nanny and our back-up were both out of town. Charles, at 18 months, would have sat still through the entire show waving his arms in delight to the music, but we know better than to expect that of this one)
Sawyer did not survive the evening, but thankfully for Dad, he got a break for about 45 minutes while Charles and I finished watching the show
Charles and I agree, it was a fun show and we're now in the Christmas spirit!
