WICKED

Thursday we took a little day trip with Russell's sister and brother-in-law down to Utah to go and see Wicked. We have had the tickets since October and when I bought them I thought it was very far away. Now it has come and past and I wish that I had more tickets to go again.

When I bought the tickets I had little knowledge of what the show was about other than my sister-in-law had seen it and raved over how good it was. And I did know that it had to do with The Wizard of OZ.

Well, for Christmas I received the CD. I listened to it once and didn't think much of it and then I realized that I better get to know the music. So I put it in the car and pretty much listened to it where ever I was going. It got to be very popular with my kids. They would say, "Could you turn on the Popular song??" They knew that it was number 7--Breanna even had other favorite numbers and would ask me to turn it to her favorite number.

I had figured out most of the story line but knew that I was missing some of the talking and missing some of the details. I would try to get it out of Amy but she would tell me I had to wait for the show.

Well the show was about 2 1/2 hours long and it was so good I probably could have watched for another 3 hours and not known any difference. It was so good!!! It was fun for me to watch and see all the little details that I hadn't figured out come all together. I would definately buy tickets to see it again. I would go on a trip far away just to see it.

We had a great day traveling, eating out, and especially seeing WICKED!!
