Surprise! Maxwell goes to the "Opera"

Mother and son in the Orpheum lobby.
Our daughter Marcy surprised her son (our grandson Maxwell) with a live performance of the "Phantom of the Opera" yesterday, staged in Minneapolis at the Orpheum. Max had no idea where he was going, only that he was supposed to wear a tie.
Here's his Mom's note:
After at least five years of enjoying "The Phantom of the Opera" in various digital formats -- including his personal copy on DVD -- as his surprise Christmas present, Max was taken to the Broadway Performance in downtown Minneapolis this afternoon. (And he even got the shirt swag after the show).

His review was: He enjoyed it a lot and acknowledged that his mom did a pretty good job this year. :) The best part for Mom was just seeing him smile.
