Shrek!!!!!

Finally, after months of anticipation, Simone's Christmas present had arrived: two tickets to the musical Shrek. No, the tickets did not arrive per se. The date that the tickets were good for had arrived and Simone, bubbling over with excitement, was going to get to experience her favourite movie live. The "stage" was set. Little B had packed his suitcase full of toys and was comfortably settled at his big brother's apartment. Simone and hubby had arrived 20 minutes ahead of the curtain rising. And there they were, in the lobby of the theatre. Simone couldn't stand still. "I love Shrek!" She gushed. It was by far her favourite movie of all time. Perhaps that is a silly thing to admit but there it is. Simone's husband smiled indulgently. "Did you want any souvenirs?" He asked. Simone beamed. She picked a fuchsia t-shirt and a donkey hoodie, complete with donkey ears and "hoofs". Soon it was time for the show to start. What a memorable show! The dragon was positively outstanding - Simone LOVES the dragon! Thank-you, hubby, for this gift. It was a joyous experience from beginning to end. Thank-you!!!!
