Veggie Tales Concert

 Glen and I surprised Azaryah by taking him to the Veggie Tale concert while it was in town.  Azaryah was THRILLED to be alone with Daddy and Mommy, to see Veggie Tales, and to have supper out!!!

 This is the face Azaryah made when the Veggie Tales walked out on stage...We were a little too close and the Veggie Tales were a little too big!!!  He was unsure of these HUGE talking vegetables ;-)

 It did not take him long to warm up to the idea of huge veggies!!! heehee  Daddy bought him a shirt and thus began the dancing!!!!

We all had a WONDERFUL time!!!!  "If you like to talk to tomatoes...." ;-)
