Beauty and the Beast

On Thursday night we took Emma Catherine to the local production of Beauty and the Beast. She was so excited about going, although she thought we were going "to Disney World" to see Beauty and the Beast. She was also excited because we left Bailey at home with a babysitter.
Ryan and I didn't have really high expectations for the play but it was really good. The actors did a great job and the actress who played Belle sounded just like the Belle on the movie. The play was a little on the long side (a little over 2 1/2 hours) but otherwise it was great. Emma Catherine did great during the whole play. See was a little antsy toward intermission but a potty break and a quick snack left her excited for the end of the play.
After the play was over, the characters all came out to take pictures. We asked Emma Catherine if she wanted to see Belle and she said that she did. We waited in line and once it was Emma Catherine's turn, she did this:
She wouldn't really go to her and she wouldn't leave my side. We were a little frustrated with her, but it was 10:00 (2 hours past her bedtime). As we were leaving I said to Ryan, "It's a good thing we're not going to Disney World until 2011." Overall, it was a fun time for us and Emma Catherine.
