Oh how exciting!! My daughter will be thrilled -- we have gone to Laura Ingalls Wilder Day at the Village since it first began 2 years ago and we were thrilled to meet Allison Arngrim the first year, and Karen Grassle last year -- wonderful, wonderful event! My 9-year-old loves to try and guess who will be coming each year!
ReplyDeleteFantastic! I have attended the last two years, and agree that Alison and Karen were wonderful guests at the event; given his excellent documentary work, clearly Dean will not disappoint, either. Thank you so much for rounding out this wonderful new tradition with "Manly!" I am truly looking forward to the weekend...
ReplyDeleteIt's so great to see people excited over our choice! We are also really excited his appearance. Check back because we have another guest that weekend as well that we are very excited about!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to hear about the other guest!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait!!!! I have never been to this particular event before, even though we enjoy the museum. I am looking forward to it!!
ReplyDeleteThis will be our third year putting on this event and we think it's one of the highlights of the year!
ReplyDeleteI'm very excited about this. I haven't been able to attend any of the events where Dean has been so far because I haven't had the freedom to travel there. This location is about 5 1/2 hours away from me, so it's definitely doable.
ReplyDeleteWill Dean be there both days? I would like to make sure I'll get a chance to hear him speak.
Thanks.
Cheryl
Cheryl,
ReplyDeleteI do believe that Dean will be there both days but I will check and get back to you ASAP!
I love the Little House show and books! I'm so excited to meet Dean. I have Karen Grassle and Alison Angrim's autograph. I love picking out books for the celebirty to sign. I already am picking out which book Dean will sign.
ReplyDeleteBoth Dean Butler and William Anderson will be at the museum both days of the event. In July we will be posting a schedule of events and times for their talks and autograph sessions!
