I Am Such a Stress Case



A couple weeks ago my friend Kristi sent me to a website to get in for the Tangled preview. They only allowed 4 tickets per email address, we needed 6, so I signed Chris up too. We had to wait to see if we got in or rejected, the wait was suspenseful.

5 days ago, I got the confirmation email that said we made the cut and were on our way to see Tangled, I've been excited ever since! We finally told our kids on Monday that we were going.

It's one of those events that you have to wait in line for, there's no reserve seating and there's no guarantee that you'll get in. Right after school today we left for the theater, our show didn't start until 7pm.

When we got there, the theater had no clue what I was talking about and I started worrying that we weren't going to get to see the show. They did let us wait in line ~ we were first! We waited in line for an hour and a half, I finally found someone who could help me and we found our names on "the list".

It was so much fun! Our kids rarely get to go to a new release show, and never with friends. They gave out posters to everyone, did a few drawings and played some games with the audience. We met a really nice family in line that got there soon after we did. It turns out our kids go to the same school and they live less than a mile from my house. Small world.

The kids had a blast. It was a cute show and such a fun memory. All the worry and stress was worth it.
