San Francisco

Trying on one of Glinda's dresses on for size

This blue gown weighs about 18 lbs.

Meran and I just got home from a whirlwind trip to San Francisco. My parents took us and we met up with my brother, Benjamin and his fiance, Kate, who live in the city. We went to see the musical, WICKED. A long time family friend, Alli Mauzey, plays Glinda (or Gulinda, if you wish-if you have seen it you know what i mean!) She seriously made the musical what it was~she is so talented. She has performed on Broadway, among other places. To experience her talent you can youtube her. "Popular" is the favored song of Meran and myself. After the musical, we met Alli backstage and she showed us around. It was a fun experience!
The weekend went way too quick, but we managed to slip in some shopping, really great meals and a trolley ride topped off with a trip to Ghiradelli Square.
A weekend Meran and I won't soon forget!
*Special thanks to my husband for staying home to hold down the fort and entertain the boys...they had their own fun~swimming, McDonald's and yardwork...a boy's dream!
