Wicked!

I surprised Dave with a weekend getaway to San Fran to see "Wicked" last weekend for his big 30th Birthday Bash! It was such a fantastic weekend! His parent's and brother were so great and watched our kids for us and we were able to stay the night in San Fran... and actually SLEEP IN! I was so mad when 8 am rolled around and I couldn't sleep anymore. Oh well, my body clock is all kid-ified now.

But we drove out around 2:30 on Fri and headed off to San Fran, Dave still not knowing where we were going. We made a gas/bathroom pit stop and as we got in the car to drive off, I told Dave he had something in his teeth (romantic, I know!). He looked in the rear view mirror to see, and I said, "No, Dave use the visor!" (b/c I had hidden the Wicked tickets up there), he opened the visor and out tumbled the tickets onto his lap! he was so excited! He is a manly man, but loves his musicals, too OK! So, we got to San Fran, went to an amazingly fancy restaurant, delicious! Then went to see "Wicked". Dave and I didn't know anything about the show, so we were absolutely blown away! I am obsessed with the music now. Then Dave sweet-talked the lady at the hotel to give us a free hotel room upgrade- so we got one of the best rooms in a 4 star hotel in San Fran for $70, not bad!

The next day we drove back home and had a BBQ with family and cheesecake for dessert! I love you, Davey! Happy big 30!

You look so pretty Lenore! Dave, you don't look too bad either... So I can totally still remember when Jessica and Robbie were going to wicked and Dave about had a heart attack cuz he was so jealous! I thought that was hilarious, and now I know he must really love that stuff! Honestly, I wish we could have lived by you guys longer so he could have rubbed off more on Trevor!

It's too funny to read this today, since we were at Sea World and during one of the "shows" I kept thinking "that guy (the comic pirate) reminds me a lot of dave stutz!" Nice job on a great birthday surprise!
