Wicked

We made a pit stop in St. Louis to see the afternoon performance of WICKED!!!  

Kids hadn't seen it before but knew the songs and were excited!  

 

  

  

  

IT WAS AWESOME!!!!  We listened to the soundtrack as we got out of St. Louis trying to beat traffic!

Ice Cream Treat after swim practice!   (We had tried to get her permit that day - but they closed early and we missed it!)   Went back next day (Ugly Sweater Day at school) and she passed the test!!!
 
A couple of her YW friends from church helped me throw a party at Sarah's house.
 
 
Hung out.   Ate pizza.   Played the 3 Round Game.   And watched a Movie.
 

 
   
She got to drive through "Christmas in the Park"!!!   (Dad pulled over at the beginning and let her drive through the lights . . .  and then home - first time on the actual road!!!)

We love you B!!!!   Thanks for your patience as your parents have never had a 16 year old before!
