There's No Place Like Home


Me and my sibs surprised my mom with a dinner on Monday for her birthday.  She was excited, but I don't think she was totally surprised, because none of us are very good at keeping secrets from her.  

We also got together last night to see Wicked, and my voice has cracked about 10 times this morning from honestly thinking I could pull off Defying Gravity.  We sat so close to the stage I could smell the actors (who oddly smelled like a sweaty Krispy Kreme doughnut).  This was my 3rd time seeing Wicked, and it never gets old.  The level of talent was insane and I do love being in the presence of fiercely talented people (hair toss, hair toss).

What an adorable family! I'm jealous, I've been wanting to see Wicked forever!

Sweat and krispy kreme doughnuts does not sound like a good smell combo!

I want to see Wicked! And Phantom too. I got your email by the way and have been meaning to email you back. Sorry! Yes I will let you know about Eddy (eddie?). I am scared to death though! I am going to try the intermediate class before the advanced because I am a wimp. Okay, I think I might have figured out how to link up my email...Let me know if it worked!
