WICKED!!!

My Mom and Papa K took Amanda, Mollie, Jen, and I to Wicked last night. It was AWESOME! I have never been to a play before so I was shocked at how cool it was. The stage kept changing, the background would change, Elphaba and her monkeys could fly, and most of all their voices are amazing live! I have been listening to the soundtrack all week to get prepared and I kept thinking they couldn't hold a candle to the people on the soundtracks voices, but they did! Maybe even better!
I also read the book a few days before the play so I could know the story, and I feel a little dark saying this, but I loved it! So I was worried they weren't going to do Elphaba justice and I wouldn't like the play, but they did do her justice! She was just as interesting of a character. I even liked all the changes they made from book to play. I loved Glinda and thought her character was so funny.
I want to go again with Seth so bad! I am now addicted to it. I looked up tickets and for crappy seats it is $250! Thanks so much Mom and Papa K!



All because of a rubber bouncy ball...

Thanks to that big bouncy ball right there and our little Brocky we had to get a new toilet. Seth tried everything to get it out and nothing would work. Its crazy how one minute of Brock playing can result in such a money and time consuming project! We shattered the old toilet once we knew we had to get a new one to figure out what was the hold up!

Easter time!!!

Easter weekend was so much fun for us. On Saturday Granny had her egg hunt. It was so fun to see Doran and Brock finding the eggs. At first Brock was not sure if he wanted to do it and then he really started having fun. They got quite a bit of candy too! As soon as it was over Doran wanted to go home, so we did. When we walked in the door Doran threw his eggs all over so he could have another Easter egg hunt!

The boys were pretty excited when they found their baskets in the morning. (Doran had only woke up about 30 seconds before this picture!)
I am so mad that I forgot my camera the rest of the day. We went to church next and they both looked so handsome. Then we had a wonderful lunch at my Mom and Papa K's and they wore new Easter outfits they got them. They looked studly in them too! Then we went over to Nate and Samantha's and had dinner and another egg hunt over their. I am hoping I can steal some pictures from someone else. The boys really had a fun day, but boy was Brock ready for bed last night!

Sammi's birthday cake

For Sammi's 18th Birthday she wanted a barbie cake and I decided I was up to the challenge. It took a lot of time but here is the final results....
