Absolutely...WICKED!


For Christmas, my parents gave me and my sisters tickets to Wicked! YAY! Unfortunately, Mikayla couldn't be with us because she is in Michigan golfing for SUU (which is cool too!) So Cody was the next pick, he graciously declined and volunteered to watch our kids so I could go and enjoy the show. (Thanks Honey!) Naturally, Greg was the lucky recipient of the golden ticket. It was great to have him along and to drive too. We walked around downtown SLC trying to find some cool graffiti for Brooks pics for about two hours first, then ate a yummy dinner at The Macaroni Grill. The highlight...Seeing WICKED! What an incredible performance!!!!!! I'd see it a million times more if I could. Seriously, if you are not familiar with this musical and its story, you need to! It is such a wonderful twist on the classic "Wizard of Oz" movie, that will give you a completely new perspective on the "Wicked" Witch and LIFE! I love the way that music can touch you in a way that propels a desire to change FOR THE BETTER! Thanks Family!

That's awesome! I want to go so bad. I almost bought tickets for me and Kyle for his birthday, but I can't afford it right now. Maybe next time.

Hey! We got Wicked tickets for Christmas too! We are going this Wednesday and I am super stoked! I also loved your last comment about how music makes you change for the better. I completely agree! It's for that reason that I am majoring in Music Therapy!
