"Wicked" Awesome

Lawrence and I saw Wicked on Wednesday, July 8. I have been looking forward to seeing this show since my friend Jen purchased our tickets for us in JANUARY!!

I had no idea what to expect. I knew that it was a a prequel of sorts to the Wizard of Oz (one of my favorite films) but that was it.

I can not say enough good things about the show. It was one of the best shows I have EVER seen. In fact I am already ready to see it again...hopefully in NYC on Broadway.

I am excited to start reading the book!!!

4th of July

Mom and dad had a cook out with the entire family...it was a blast. I love when mom and dad have the family over--it is always a great time!!!

My little cousins were in attendance and they always entertain. Since Michael Jackson had just passed they have become very interested in the Thriller video. It was fun getting to experience his music through their eyes.

We ended the night by going to the Germantown fireworks! I had never been (in the 19 years I have lived here) and bad soooo much fun. I am such a sucker for fireworks!!!

I think that we will start the tradition of going each year...what a great way to celebrate being an American.

June Recap

This summer is FLYING by!

The month started off by the first Live at the Garden show which was Train and Sister Hazel. What a great night. The weather was perfect and the bands played all their greatest hits.

Us at the Doobie Brothers :)


The following weekend we had a great time visiting Melissa and David in Heber. The most memorable part of the weekend was going tubing. I had never been and after I got over my initial freak out I had a great time. I got pretty beat up but hopefully the next time will not be so bad :)

I am TERRIFIED...this was the first ride!!


The next weekend was busy with the Doobie Brothers at Live at the Garden on Thursday night and then Eddie Vedder at the Orpheum on Saturday.

Us before Eddie Vedder.

We also joined the new gym with our friend's the Jones'. We are enjoying our membership!!
