GIVEAWAY: Charlotte's web tickets.

*** CONGRATULATIONS TO NICOLE SIIRTOLA OF MANKATO, MN ***

Nicole Siirtola of Mankato, MN is the winner of a family 4-pack of tickets to The Children's Theatre Company's performance of Charlotte's Web (tickets are ONLY for the Thursday, Sept. 26th, 2013 show at 7 p.m.)! Nicole, please email us (minnesotababyinfo@gmail.com) by Sept. 25th at 5 p.m. with your address and phone number, so we can verify and get you your tickets. Thanks everyone for your participation, and stay tuned for another giveaway coming up soon!

This show runs September 17th through October 27th at the CTC in Minneapolis. It's one of my favorite childhood stories, and now you can see it on stage! The story is about a farm-girl named Fern, who ends up saving Wilbur (the smallest pig in the litter) from her father’s axe. Wilbur feels like nothing bad can ever happen again, but the other barn animals know why the farmer wants to make his new pig fat and tender. Wilbur finds help in the seemingly fragile web of Charlotte the spider who weaves a path to freedom for the pig. I wish we were going to be back from Singapore to see this performance in Minnesota, but Linna and I did get to see a performance of Charlotte's Web in Singapore a few months ago.
