Girls' Night Out

I guess it is time to write in our blog, when I signed in to write this, the whole format of blogger has changed from the last time. I think I am figuring it out, so here we go!

A few weeks ago I was invited to go out for a girls' night with my mother in law and sisters in law. We started our night by going to dinner at the Cheesecake Factory. After lots of yummy food (and cheesecake!) we headed over to the Buell Theater to see "Wicked". I had never seen it before and was pretty excited. We got there 4 minutes before the curtain time and rushed to our excellent seats. The show was great! The storyline went a little different than I had expected, but I liked it! A BIG thank you to Cynthia Knobel for the awesome tickets!

After the show we had the opportunity to take a backstage tour! It was really cool to see everything that goes into putting on the show. We got to see (and hold) the blue "bubble dress" that Glinda wears at the opening of the show. Wow, that dress is heavy!! We were not allowed to take pictures backstage except for one thing.... they let us take a picture in front of the Oz head.

At the end of the tour they gave us each a program booklet that had been signed by both of the witches.
