Phantom of the Opera!!!

Well today my dh and I went on a date. I am very strict in my beliefs as a parent and stubborn. I don't believe in having my kids babysat until the age of 2. My dh has been wonderfully supportive of this. So her comes Phantom of the Opera! My dd will be 2 in a month (great timing) so off we went with my mil babysitting at our place. (It is great when people, especially family respects my desisions on such matters. It made me comfortable and relaxed on my date.)

The movie was FABULOUS!!! I have seen Phantom on stage twice, once on tour at the Pantages Theater in Los Angeles and once in New York at the Majestic Theatre, and I must say I was blown away by the movie! I didn't expect it to be as great as it was. Usually I am disapointed in things made for one arena and adapted for another (musicals, play, books to movie). Yet here, FABULOUS, just simply FABULOUS. Go see it if you haven't! :)

So glad to hear that you loved the movie. I have been debating if I want to see it as the reviews have not been great. Now I can't wait to see it! Although not a mom myself, I applaud you on your babysitter rule.
