WICKED part 2

This was Savanna's and my sister Janelle's birthday gift- and I could not just send them up to Tulsa by themselves, now could I?

Per Savanna's request we all wore green, white and black.



Janelle made Wicked snack bags to take with us.

We were excited of course. I laughed before I left-my friend Lori tweeted reminding me to not sing during the show. And you know what? I didn't. I was too captivated by the whole thing. The story, the music, the costumes, the shoes, the hair the whole stage set. I was so caught up- I gasped, I cried, I laughed. I loved that Savanna pointed out different things about the costumes that she liked. Like the yellow boots. Or things that she liked about the set. I loved sharing this with her and with my sister.
After the show was over we all felt a little down. We were not ready for it to all be over!




I can't wait to go see it again- I think I need to take Jay.


Every year for Halloween I dress up as a witch. Well sort of. I have a apron that looks kind of like a witch and a hat.
This last year Luke told me I needed to be something else. He said it did not count because I was the same thing ever year. Well he is going to have to get over it, because come this October I am adding green face paint to my costume. I will have to be my new favorite witch.

WICKED part 1 I laughed, I cried, I made a fool out of myself

I am sure you have read enough reviews on Wicked so I will spare you my take on it. (well at least for this post!) I will just say it really was good. I was moved.

This was part of Savanna's birthday present and I wanted to have photos.
I ran out of battery on my camera so I ran out to the van to grab an extra and on the way chatted with a couple. They asked me how I liked the show and I in turn asked them their thoughts. They said they were ushers. And we continued chatting and then parted ways.
I made it back to Savanna and my sister and we posed and took photos. As I was putting the camera away a man walks up and asked how we liked the show. I gushed and said it was fabulous. Remembering the couple that I had just been with I thought I would beat this guy to the punch. I asked "So, are you an usher?"

He kind of chuckled and as he starts to speak I can see Savanna looking at me kind of odd,

"No, I am the presenter of the show."

Oops- I kind of thought you looked familiar.

He was kind enough to let me grab a photo-


I am sure he is still shaking his head about the loon asking him if he was an usher.
