WICKED

For Christmas last year Curtis got himself and me tickets to see Wicked in Salt Lake City. This past week-end I went down and we went. It was so much fun. The play, costumes, scenery everything was amazing. I am posting some pictures that I found on line so you can see what it was like.



This was the curtain.

Glinda at the beginning of the play letting them know that the Wicked Witch of the west was dead. The story begins.

The Wonderful Wizard of Oz

Elphaba puts a spell on the monkeys and gave them wings.



Elphaba learns she can fly.

The Wicked Witch of the East is killed.

Can not tell you the ending it would ruin the play.

Christmas Eve - A Night with Santa

On Christmas Eve Sandy, Curtis and I went over to Christine's house. Two of her sons one with 3 daughters, Farrell, Rene, their daughter and grandson were there. We also had a very special guest. The kids had no idea he was coming. (Sandy was SANTA)

Throwing magic Reindeer food for Santa's Reindeer. Reindeer food is made with oats and gold glitter. It helps Santa's reindeer fly. They were so excited.









A distraction: Rene reading a Christmas story.



SANTA arrives:











Talking to Santa. This is the first time any of these kids would talk to Santa. If they see him anywhere they will not talk to him. Maybe it was because they were at home, or maybe it was because he was a special Santa.











Hugs from SANTA
