The Backyardigans, Tasha, Austin, Uniqua, Tyrone and Pablo
Daddy and Miss Priss
After much anticipation, it was finally time to go see Backyardigans Live. We bought our tickets back in August and Daddy and I have been so excited to take Dallas. We told him all morning that we were going to go and see Pablo. I don't think he had any idea what it meant because to him Pablo has always been on TV. We rushed to the Nokia Theater to go and see him and of course there was a bunch of traffic on the way. We had to go through on accident and then the highway was under construction so it went down to one lane. I was so worried we weren't going to make it on time and it was really important for him to be there when it started. We get to the place with ten minutes to spare, but we still have to park, go inside and have a potty break and make it to our seats. We run to the bathrooms and I get Dallas to potty then I start to hear the music and freak out and finish with him but the music was just playing and we hadn't missed it.
We get to our seats and a few minutes later it starts. The look on his face was priceless. I dont' think that his little mind could comprehend what he was seeing and he just sat absolutely still staring at the stage. Phoebe was squealing with delight because she has heard the music so much that she was so happy. I started to get teary eyed because I was so filled with joy for them both. It was such a special thing to be doing and my emotions just took over. The production was just amazing. There were so many set changes and the characters moved exactly like they do on the TV show. There was an intermission half way through and when the second half started up I took Phoebe out to get her to sleep. I was bummed I missed some of it but she was getting tired and her sleep was more important. Daddy said that Dallas loved the second half and was jumping around and asking questions and having fun. When it was over we had a huge meltdown because he wasn't ready to leave. Out of the 1,000 kids there he was the only one screaming and crying but I am not going to let that ruin our time. I think it is because he just had to much fun.

Mommy and Dallas, he wouldn't look at the camera.
You weren't supposed to take pictures but I had Daddy sneak a few at the end.
