Madagascar Live!!!

Madagascar Live and the Spaghetti Works!! YEAH!!

I know I know, don't have a heart attack, I can't believe the blog is updated either. But I was getting some slack from a few people!

Anyways, my mom and I took the boys to see Madagascar Live at the Civic Center in Des Moines. We first stopped at Spaghetti Works on Court Ave to eat before the show. This place was one of my favorite spots as a kid!! I remember there being a fire truck salad bar when I was a kid?? Now there is an old antique car salad bar. Hunter and Gunnar didn't mind they filled up on applesauce (2 plate fulls each). Then came the spaghetti and meatballs in which Gunnar had a blast eating and mommy had fun taking pictures of his slurping!! Hunter was busy shoveling all the food in and didn't really have time to slurp. Here are a couple of pics from that.



Then off to Madagascar Live which was 2 blocks away. We raced down there, Hunter and Mommy winning, Gunnar coming in a close 3rd, and Baba in last place. She had on a winter coat so she wasn't as cold as us.

Once we got inside we bee-lined for the gift shop. Where, without checking first I told the boys they could each have 1 flashlight and 1 stuffed animal. Here is a few pictures of what they chose. 75 dollars later (LOL) Yep $75!! So we played around for a few minutes before heading into the show. They were pretty pumped with their new toys.


Inside we were give Lemur goggles to watch the show with. See photos for these awesome but somewhat freakish things! And the show was on!!



It was entertainment for everyone once the show started. Both boys had no expression on their faces for awhile just blindly staring and taking everything in! Once King Julian came on it was entertaining to watch Hunter dance in his seat! Ahhhh he didn't care who saw him he was just having fun. To be a child again...... Mom and I were very entertain by Hunter, as usual!! Here are some fun pics from the show!! Hope everyone enjoys!!




I hope everyone is doing well. Beware the Ides of March. Boys are on spring break with dad this week! Lots of outside time I'm sure!!!

This weekend we are going to visit Camp Hantesa to see where Hunter will spend his days this summer, swimming, archery, horse back riding, hiking and other fun things. I'm totally jealous. Again, can I be a kid again???

Next weekend to Kansas City for Toy Story 3 on Ice and Great Wolf Lodge. I will try to update the blog with this!
