Wicked!


So, Brad and I got the chance to attend the musical Wicked for the first time this past Saturday. It was a great play, and I would recommend it to anyone who has never seen it before. It is definitely a worthwhile show, and there were several times during the play where I got chills from the greatness of the music. The girl who plays Glinda in it is hilarious and the story is very entertaining as well. I must say I am a girl who enjoys musicals!

4th of July Weekend!





We had quite the adventure riding the light rail over the holiday weekend. We planned on going to the free admission night at the Phoenix Children's Museum, and grabbing a bite to eat at the nearby Pizzeria Bianco. When we got to the restaurant, they informed us there would be a 4 hour wait. I thought...are you joking! Anyway, we ended up having to grab a bite to eat at the nearby British Pub called the Rose and Crown. It was probably the greasiest food I have ever had, and it was quite the interesting atmosphere to take our 1 and 2 year old children. Brad and I had a good laugh after the whole experience. We ended up having to wait another 2 hours to get into the museum. I would like to say it had been worth the wait, but that would be lying! By the time we made it home on the light rail, it was around 11 p.m. The kids were pretty good sports about the whole thing, and they did have a great time in the museum. We chalk it up to a good story to tell down the road.
