Wicked

I am married to the most wonderful man ever!! Jacob surprised me with 2 tickets to Wicked (the musical) for Christmas. It was the best present ever!! We headed out to San Francisco on Friday morning while my parents stayed at our house to babysit the kiddos. We stayed at the Park 55 right on Market Street. It was a very nice hotel and we got to experience valet parking for the first time. We rode the subway, my first ever, and we walked for miles in beautiful San Francisco. We also ate dinner at the best Italian place ever. It was amazing.


Our Wicked tickets were for a matinee on Valentines Day at the Orpheum Theater. The theater was beautiful and I was lucky enough to have seats on the second row, right in dead center on the balcony. And even better, was that we had 2 kids sitting right in front of us so there was no interference with a giant man or a big hair lady. Of course, there aren't many things better than a Broadway musical and this was no exception. Wicked was brilliant, funny, romantic, and super entertaining. It was all that I wanted it to be and more. Jacob, thank you for the best weekend I've had in a long time!! And, thanks Mom and Dad for taking the time to watch the kids for us!!

What a perfect weekend! It just doesn't get better than that. Wicked is my favorite! I saw it a few years ago and absolutely loved it. How can you not love it?! Heather is taking Abbie next week. Of course, I'm very jealous but love that they will enjoy that together. Glad you were able to go. And I LOVE the pink!
