Katie recently won two tickets to see "Magic Treehouse- The Musical" and she chose me to be her guest! If you are unfamiliar with this series of books, they are written by Mary Pope Osbourne. Each book follows the adventures of brother and sister team, Jack and Annie, as they travel through time via their magic treehouse. Mandy enjoyed reading these books and now Katie is starting to read them. They are short chapter books and we highly recommend them.
The play was.... interesting. I found the young lady that played Annie to have an extremely annoying voice, which was distracting, but it was enjoyable enough. The best part was that the author, Mary Pope Osbourne, made an appearance! She spoke to the audience for a minute which I thought was quite exciting. I think Katie thought it as pretty neat, too.:) Katie came home with a "crystal key" (light up wand) as a souvenir, and I'm hoping some fun memories of an afternoon spent together. I know that I loved spending the day with her.:)

I have not heard of those books but I am sure anything about magic and tree houses would be great. I am so glad you were able to go with Katie and enjoy some quality time together. The pictures of her are just adorable.

Sloan loves those books. We are currently reading the Pippi Longstocking books. They are so silly and endearing. Sloan loves them. Your little Katie looks so grown up in her dress and shoes. Glad you had a good time!

OHHH what fun! My son loved those books..he has grown out of them now. cherry
How fun! Exciting that the author spoke!
Oh, that sounds like so much FUN!
I love you! I love you! I love you!
What a fun thing to be able to do with your daughter....it isn't long before they don't want to hang out with mom...so you're really smart to make the most of the time that you're "still cool" lol.
what a TREAT! My kids would have enjoyed that...even though they are older. They both tore through that entire series so fast it made my head spin!
Super fun books and how wonderful to spend it with Katie!!!
My son and I just finished the first MTH book today. He can hardly wait to start the next one!
So cool! My youngest son has always loved Magic Tree House books. What a wonderful way to spend time with a very special young lady! Have a great Friday! Blessings,KAren
Thanks for stopping by my blog and leaving me a comment! We love the MTH series, my son is trying to read all of them, and is making great progress. They are his absolute favorite. I would love for the musical to come down here by us. That is so cool that the author made an appearance!
That is some kind of wonderful. Caroline loves the series. I will have to share your blog post with her.
We love these books and have read just about all of them.
How great to see the musical.

We own most of the Magic Treehouse books! I had to draw the line :0} Hunter read all of them over and over again. Sydney picked up a couple. Hopefully Parker will enjoy them as much as Hunter or awefully close.
