Wednesday in NYC: No one mourns the WICKED

Friday was all about shopping and getting ready to see WICKED! Jason came in from Brooklyn early to go running with Jo, Car, Kris, & Fern, while Mom & I got ready for the day. No way were we going to burn our lungs walking in the freezing cold. (It was 38 degrees in NYC. Meanwhile, back in our good 'ole hometown it was a rockin' 70 degrees!)

Ground Zero & Battery Park. Jo, Mom, & Carly beneath the Cross Monument

Jo, Car, Kris; & Jason & Norman. Headed to Century 21 for shopping

Designer dresses...?

After shopping all morning & afternoon - Kristie, Jo, & Car showing off their new hats

We love Jason & Fern!

Look at this fabulous library - upstairs in the loft

Kris & Jo, dressed for our WICKED evening!

My mom is so lucky! She has 4 daughters and 2 sons
(but Josh wasn't able to make the "all girls trip")

The handsome couple, Jason & Norman

Love, love, LOVE these pictures snapped by Jason & Norman. We're waltzing down Canal Street to catch the subway for dinner. Mom commented that we looked like Sex in the City-with out the sex.

We're here!!! The catch line for WICKED says, "So much happened before Dorothy dropped in" and it is true!

Jo in the fabulous gold-leaf chair; Jo, Me, Sue excited to get to our seats!
We were in the mezzanine - all 7 of us were seated together. It was awesome, and WICKED was THE BEST SHOW I'VE EVER SEEN.
(Better than Chicago, Les Miserables, and even better than my all-time favorite, Phantom of the Opera).

Subway ride home. It's almost midnight, and I just bolted out a song from WICKED.
(I forgot we were on the subway with other passengers. Oops!)

Jason, Kristie, & Norman
