Wicked Nights and Early Morning Walks

       Last Thursday evening Mick and I were able to go up with a group of his fellow teachers to see the production of "Wicked".  It certainly did not dissappoint any expectations and infact exceeded them.  Both female leads put on a strong and impressive performance, as well as the other main actors.  All in all we had a ton of fun just relaxing and having a quiet night with no kids and watching an awesome show...

Close up of the stage... I LOVED that scary dragon!

Mick and I before the show... Very Excited!
          Another fun thing I have started doing lately is my early morning walks with Lucy and Esther.  Since we are heading into 9 months now without school all three of us have entered such stages of boredom and desperation that I have had to think hard and come up with new, fun, and exciting ways to spend our days.  I had began to notice a beautiful pathway built along the cliffs next to the ocean and beach each morning after I would drop Mick off to work.  And so finally one day, instead of going home, I turned up the little road that led to the cliffs and the parking lot and got out with the girls and went on a walk that has now become one of our favorite ways to start our day.  Finally this morning I remembered to bring my camera so I could share it with all of you!

  1. And are some random thoughts of mine, after reading that post.... Again, I am so excited you got to see Wicked. I am So very happy you updated your blog! I LOVE that you are going walking with your girls in the mornings. That is a great idea, especially when you've got such a beautiful place to go walking!

    Your girls are looking much older to me after only 6 months! And you continue to look thinner!

    I cannot believe you made friends with a lizzard. Max wants one of those for a pet desperately. I think I will NOT show this to him.

    Overall, I just miss you really a ton!!!!!
