Book of Mormon for the Second and Third Time

 We gathered our pals once again and told them they must see Book of Mormon with us.  (Remember the first time a couple years ago?)  We made an event of it and spent the night in Chicago that night. 

 Book of Mormon Selfie!! Doesn't it look like the major Oscar selfie?? Ha!

 After the show, we went to Miller's Pub like we did last time.  Here's a shot of the boys!

 Here's a picture of the ladies! You can tell I was the one sitting by the heater.  Phew! It was hot!

 The next day we went shopping on Michigan Avenue. We stopped by Dylan's Candy Bar because CANDY!!! We found this massive gummy bear.  Delish!

During Charlotte's baptism, I was talking about seeing the show again and how everyone needed to see it.  Well I convinced my mom and my aunt to go too. The only time we could go was the very next week.  Ha!

 We tried to make it to the theater for an hour and a half once we got into Chicago.  It was horrible.  Why?? The Polish Constitution Day Parade was going on and blocking traffic!!! GRRR!

 Luckily we came super early and we made it! Book of Mormon selfie!

 Afterward, we ate at The Gage.  I ordered a Manhattan and started my new fave drink. Do you see the size of that ice cube though???

 After dinner, we walked to the bean and took pictures! TRIPLE SELFIE!

 Reverse selfie time! See us in the background??

 I took a pic of the sisters. 

 I tried to take some more but some unruly youth (literally) tumbled right into our shot! They were doing cartwheels or roundoffs or something.  It really turned out to be an awesome shot anyway though!

Gotta get a picture of that skyline!

I can now say I've seen Book of Mormon 3 times.  Yes I nearly have it memorized.  So go see it if you have a chance.  It's great!

Chicago and Book of Mormon

We went to Chicago last week to see the Book of Mormon.  

It was amazing! So offensive but so good. The Chicago cast was amazing.  The lead was the first guy in the Tony's performance of the song "Hello" (probably my favorite song).  You can see him here, ringing Ricky Martin's door.  He was by far my favorite character too.  He was sooo hate-able and so likable at the same time. 

The second male lead (is there a name for that?) was Benji in Pitch Perfect.  I haven't seen it but people seemed to like it.  His comedic timing was fantastic.  

The female lead was Syesha Mercado.  Anyone remember her? If you watched Season 7 of American Idol, you probably do.  She was third runner up under David Cook and David Archuletta.  You know you remember! She is gorg! She was also amazing in her role too. So damn talented. 

We had such a great time in Chicago.  We ate at The Gage. I had the duck.  It was muy fantastico! 

As we were walking home, we decided it would be funny to get my picture taken next to some art installation that had this random sign.  It was so weird but so funny to us.  

This will have to count as my 16 week picture.  I had to take one in Chicago in front of something.  That's our style!
