Wicked!


Jeff and I are official volunteers at the Majestic Theatre here.


Last night was our first night volunteering, and so what that means is:


WE GOT TO SEE (most of) WICKED FOR FREE!!!!


Well, almost free. We did pay 5$ for parking, and 3.50 for silly bow-ties (part of the uniform).


It really was amazing. We did miss the first 20 minutes, and then ten minutes right after intermission. But, really it was a small price to pay. I think that some of the cheapest tickets to wicked cost around 70$. So, we would never have gone.

We also lucked out, and got to sit in seats for the performance. It was "sold out" but there were enough seats that some of the ushers got to sit. So grateful for that.
Next month, we are going to usher for West Side Story! So excited for that.

Snow day!

It snowed in San Antonio for the first time in 20+ years! It was barely 1/2 inch, but the whole city shut down. No school and no work!



Enough snow to bring this little guy to "life"! If only we had a felt hat.



This is best picture to actually see the snow. It didn't accumulate on the grass, just on the roads/sidewalks.


There was a nice sheet of ice under the snow, and so our neighbors skated around the cul-de-sac in their cowboy boots. It was a perfect Texas snow.


There is just nothing quite like a snow day!

After an hour or so, our fingers were frozen and our noses red, and we warmed up with some hot cocoa and some cinnamon rolls. And then hopped back in bed for a mid morning nap. It was the best! When we woke up... all the snow was gone. And by the next day it was 60-70 degrees! It was so fun while it lasted. :)

Feliz Cumpleanos a Jeff!



Happy 27th Birthday Jeff!!!

We had a fun day celebrating Jeff's Birthday. He requested Wing-Stop for dinner. It was pretty yummy!
Instead of a cake I made him these mini fruit pizzas.

Here he is opening his present from his Mom. She always is the best at sending something for birthdays.

I could list 27 awesome things about Jeff, but that wouldn't even scratch the surface of his awesome-ness! I am so grateful for this guy.
