Lifting My Spirits

I got a call from my mom on Wednesday night asking if my kids were feeling better. I told her they were, so she asked if I could come out and play the next day. As I hadn't gotten out into civilized society for a few weeks, I jumped at the chance not, before I knew what I was going to do. Then she dropped the bomb on me. "Do you want to go see 'Wicked' with your Granny and I? WHAT?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Um, it was the best surprise ever! My Aunt and Uncle had gotten a group together for the show and one of their friends fell through, leaving an extra ticket.

It was absolutely an amazing experience! I love Broadway and dream of one day being in plays again, but this blew my mind! I was so lucky, so excited and so unprepared! Lol I forgot to charge my cameras batteries so all my pictures are from my phone so.... yeah, they suck. But it was so much fun! The characters were so funny, their voices were incredible and yeah, I cried... a couple of times just by the power of their voices.

This is a terrible picture but this is of me and my sweet and adorable little Granny.

The stage with the dragon on top waiting for the show to begin.

The incredibly over priced items you could get that I am thinking I might steel a design or two from and make my own shirt.

I didn't know anything about the story line before seeing the show and I love discovering a new musical! This was such a treat and made my little singing heart leap and dream of being on that stage with the audience applauding like in the olden days. One day when my kids are older and I have a little more free time, I am going to start acting/singing again. I love the rush. This show just fueled the fire just a bit more for me.

Here was my favorite song, it's just the Original Cast song. I have been belting it out all day, to my children's dismay. Lol
