Wicked Weekend

After years of wishing, 1 full year of anticipation, 6 months of having tickets and a hotel room reserved...Drew and I finally saw Wicked this past weekend! I posted a few months ago about getting our tickets if you're interested in reading about that {grin}.

We got to Houston about 12:30 on Sunday {showtime was at 2:00}, checked into our hotel, freshened up, and headed to the venue.

The view from our room - love the Texas lazy river!

In the merch line

Love the Pride month playbill

Trying the specialty drink - The Ozmopolitan, yum!

Welcome to Oz!

The Gurley girls!

The verdict was Drew LOVED it! She sang along, grinned throughout, told me multiple times how much she loved it, it was as good as I could have hoped for! There was 1 specific line in a song she had wanted to understand for years, and I wouldn't tell her {it was a spoiler} and she said 'I can't wait to understand what ... means.' and when she figured it out, she gasped - it was so cute!

We walked back to our hotel after the musical ended and got in our suits to hit up the lazy river. Unfortunately, Texas summer hasn't really hit, and it was a bit chilly, so we didn't stay in too long. But then we ordered poolside dinner and had fun sitting out visiting and enjoying our time together.

Best hamburger she ever had, ha

We stayed up late gabbing and playing Skip-bo, and in the morning we lazed about watching tv, reading, and relaxing. After lunch we headed back to Austin, and all 3 agreed it was a trip for the record books!

Drew made this, so funny

Until next time, Broadway {which is 2 weeks for me ha}!
