Conner Prairie - Big Bad Voodoo Daddy

I have become a big fan of Conner Prairie's Symphony on the Prairie over the years.  It's a great chance to get together outside with friends and family.  The atmosphere is picnic style and the performance is always well done.  Several performances also feature fireworks at the end of the night.  In my personal opinion the fireworks have been some of the better displays I have seen.  I love the sense of family I get from these outings.  I think my only lament is that my side of the family does not participate in similar activities.  I feel like these kinds of outings provide a strong bonding experience for Izzy.

I think Isabelle is going to be musically inclined.  Last weekend performance featured Big Bad Voodoo Daddy and she really seemed to enjoy it.  She seems to really like music in general and loves to dance.  It absolutely warms my heart to watch her get so excited.  She loves to play with everyone and seemed to have a good time with her older cousin Mollie.

We picked her up a new toy before the show that lights up and plays music.  It has quickly become her new favorite toy.  She did very well despite being up way past her bedtime.  She seemed to enjoy the fireworks as well.  I have noticed that she is not as bothered by loud noises and bright lights as one my expect.  She has a very signature look of overwhelming curiosity that causes me to grin from ear to ear whenever I see it.  I absolutely love everything about my baby girl.  I don't think I could ever have imagined how truly awesome it is to be a father.
