On Friday night Tom and I took Maddie to her very first Grand Rapids Symphony. What a big girl!!! I grew up going to the symphony and have always enjoyed it. Tom has really come apprecate and enjoy the arts just as much as I do, and we really want to share them with our children. The Grand Rapids Symphony put on a Disney themed performance where they played compilations from different Disney Movies. They showed clips of the movies on a huge screen along with the music, which was so great. Maddie absolutely LOVED it and was such a good girl. We actually stayed for the entire performance! We are so proud of her for acting like such a little lady. I think she was most excited about dressing up in her Cinderella costume and getting to wear it. :) There were lots of little girls all dressed up as their favorite princess, which was so sweet. I think one the most enjoyable parts of the evening for me was seeing the expressions of the elderly people when they saw these little girls. They simple lit up. :) Everyone is truly a kid at heart.

What a sweetie--the expression says it all! Maddie knows so many of the tunes--I can hear her singing right along with the orchestra. Family is what it's all about. Ü
Love, Moma Mia
Sounds like a ton of fun. I can't wait to dress our little girl up like a princess, she will definately have a lot of princesses to look up to. Maddie looked super cute, as always.
Precious princess Maddie. I am so glad she loved it! What special memories you are creating as a family. Love you bunches!!!!
I went to the sypmphony Saturday night. Missed you by one night. I would have loved to have seen her dressed up like that! (Can't believe she's going to school. I want to cry.)
