WICKED WAS AWESOME!

So, on January 10th, my mom and I went to go see 'Wicked' the Musical in Chicago! It was a bonus from our little business we do together for the year end bonus! Mom got us tickets and I was SO excited about my 'work bonus'! Mom had already seen it, but I have been dying to see it for so long! We took the South Shore train up to Chicago, had lunch at the train station, and headed over to the Theatre and had a wonderful time! It was great for me to get away from the boys for the day! THANK YOU JULENE!!! Dave was plowing all day because there was also a snow storm that day, but nothing was going to hold us back! Needless to say, I was absolutely mesmerized! We were in the 4th row from the front just off to the side. It was amazing! I had such a great time. I really have a new understanding for that green gal! *wink wink* I can't wait to see if they make it into a movie now! I think this is the last week it is in Chicago and then it's gone for good! I'm glad I had the chance to see it! The theatre was beautiful and mom got a nice program for us to 'share' and I spent way too much money on a t-shirt that I need to lose a few more pounds to get into! HAHA! Thanks for a great time Mom!!!
