Be Prepared!!!

Gray and I went to see The Lion King musical this past weekend and it was absolutely amazing!! The colors and costumes were amazing and the songs and characters were fabulous! I laughed and giggled and sighed and sang the whole time. It was just awesome. My favorite part was when the gazelles ran across the stage. There were dancers dressed up with gazelle puppets on their arms and head and when they leaped (lept?) through the air it really totally looked like gazelles running and leaping! I only wish you could have all seen it with me. I left the theater in love with Simba, quoting Zazu and secretly glad that Scar got what was coming to him.
I think one of the main reasons that I sometimes forget to be homesick is because I get to sit with lions and giraffes on stilts every now and again. If any of you ever have the chance to go see a musical, Lion King is one I would totally recommend! Four Circles of Life Outta Four. Check out the sneak peak video on The Lion King's website. To die for...

My bestest favorite part.... the Gazelles!

Oh I am sooooo jealous!! I never even got to see wicked when it was in San Fran. I can't wait to see you in Sept!!! And I'm hoping to still come down with the girls but it depends on Griff and his job, so we'll see. Miss you!
