Hocus Pocus Pops

 Each fall, the local symphony puts on a special production for familes and kids to enjoy.  Last Friday, Eric and I took the kids to the Pavillion to enjoy 'symphony' music, family time ( Julie, Kenlie, Malorie and Evie joined us), friend time (Brian and Kerry with Ava and Liam joined us) and of course snacks. While the music was great--they had a Harry Potter theme this year, I think the kids more enjoyed sitting on the lawn, wearing their costumes, being out late at night, rolling on the blankets and just having a good ole time.  One of the proud moments for me was when Abi happened to pause from playing with her cousins and friends and was listening to the conductor talk abouit the music--she piped in,  Mommy--we learned about that song in Music class at school.  She could hardly wait to go to Music this week and tell her teacher that she heard the song at the symphony this weekend.
