The Baldknobbers (Ballknockers... whatever....)

On Monday of 'cation week, we were sooooo excited to take Maggie to see the Hamner-Barber show. We napped her late and talked about the puppets and birds and all the fun stuff she was going to see at the show that night. As we pulled into the parking lot at 7:30ish to buy tickets for the 8:00 show, there was not another car in sight. We realized, a little too late, that there was no Monday night show.... try explaining that to an over-excited 2 year old. In a pinch, we drove a bit down the main drag, and decided to try the "Baldknobbers" show. We weren't convinced it would be quite as fun for Maggie, but bought tickets anyway... WE COULDN'T HAVE BEEN MORE WRONG... SHE LOVED IT! Before the show even began, they panned the audience, and put Maggie on the big screen. She hammed it up for everyone, waving and blowing kisses, and couldn't stop talking about "Maggie on the big TB!" It was so exciting, and that was before the show even started! Maggie thought "Droopy Drawers" and the other toothless "funny guys" were pretty hilarious, but LOVED the music even more. She danced in the aisles for the entire first half of the show. I think the people around us enjoyed her entertainment even more than the actual show they paid to see! The video clip is a little dark, but if you watch closely, you can see just how much Maggie loved it!


Getting ready for the show!




Maggie- loving every minute!


Dancin' in the aisles!





Maggie, up close and personal with the "funny guys!"
