Wicked

Daddy and Sophia all ready for the show. (funny thing... james and i saw wicked last year in australia very late at night come to find out after seeing it again with sophia james had fallen asleep and never saw the end and thought that elphaba had melted and that was the end)
At the ophemeum in San Fran
Mama and Sophia so excited.
Saw the posters for the first time. so happy to be there.

For sophia's birthday (witch *get it* is in November) we planned on taking her to see wicked. Her pretty much favorite thing in the world. but they had already left la but were still in San Fran. So we planned to go out to NOR CAL for Olivia's bday and go to wicked at the same time. it was hard for us to get tickets, but we ended up with partial view seats. At first when i told james about the idea of Sophia going to Wicked he said NAAAAHHH, why would she like to see wicked, she doesn't even know anything about it. Then a few days later we were in the car listening to Wicked and James saw or heard first hand that she knows alllllll the words. then he said yeah, we should take her and i wanna go. We took the Bart to the theatre but got there early and ate first but couldn't go far because it was freezing that day. our seat were on the fourth row, but on the far right, not the last seats but they were good. Sophia had a booster so she could see everything. everyone thought she looked like a princess. It was kinda funny how she would ask questions about what was going on because she had only heard the music like: why are they being so mean to Elphaba? She loved the dragon and the lights, and i had to tell her she couldn't sing all the songs out loud. but mostly everyone around us was happy with her there. Sad to say that soon after intermission she fell asleep, dead to the world asleep. that's what happened when it's a 8 pm show. so i guess we have to go back one day. the best thing was seeing her face she loved it. and Glinda was beyond awesome, off the charts best popular ever. (sophia's fav song)
