Lego Americana, park days, and GO-GO-GO Joseph!

This week we had the chance to go up the local mall and see the Lego Americana exhibit - so cool!  Historical buildings and monuments all built out of Legos!  And the cherry on top - lego bins to play in for as long as you want. :) 
The Statue of Liberty - entirely out of Legos, people.
 The Old North Church:
 Rachel and her friend Harper in front of the Jefferson Memorial.
...and then my phone died.  It was a very cool way to spend a couple of hours, and Caleb was a little disappointed that the trip did not culminate in buying lots of new Legos, but he got over it pretty quickly.

Also this week we made it to a playground, yay for spring weather finally!
Ella, our accomplished climber, with her trusty sidekick Caleb:
Finally, we went to see Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat downtown Friday night! 
It was so fun!  Unfortunately the title character was a little weak (think backstreet boys, or maybe... a kazoo) but the rest of the production was spectacular!  "Those Canaan Days" - Hilarious.  Kip really enjoyed it, it is a very fast-paced and high energy show with only one slower number.  And since this Joseph wasn't the best, I did come home and listen to Donny Osmond (circa the 1999 film version) sing "Close Every Door" so I could clear the kazoo version out of my head.  ha!  So pumped to go see Wicked again this summer and the Piano Guys at Red Rocks.  I sort of bought more show tickets that usual this year - and also Lion King is coming in November?!  Holy cow.  Hooray for the year of the show tickets!
