Wicked!

This weekend I was finally able to take Alli to see Wicked! We went with Mom and Kimmie, and it was so much fun. We spent most of Saturday shopping, bought some fabric to make Alli's costume for recital opening number, got me some new canisters at IKEA (woohoo) and went to the Church History Museum. After getting all prettied up, we went to the Macaroni Grill for dinner, and then walked over to the Capitol Theater.

It was an amazing performance; the Glinda we saw was so funny, and I think my favorite of the three I've seen. Elphaba was really good, too. The whole production was great. Alli just sat mesmerized through the whole thing and loved it. She was so excited to wear her green dress and black sweater (show her solidarity with Elphie!), and of course, her cat, Elphie, got to come in her witch's dress. We've been waiting for almost 4 years to see this, and to be able to take Alli was the best.


Easter morning we went to the Tabernacle Choir Broadcast, which was fun, and took some pictures on a beautiful spring morning.

Then we went to church with Kimmie and had dinner at her house. She LOVED her giant sucker I put in her Easter basket. It was such a wonderful weekend!
