Follow The Yellow Brick Road

If you're looking for a great family friendly activity for Sunday afternoon, I know just the thing! The McPherson Community Theatre has it's FINAL performance of the Wizard of Oz at 2pm on Sunday, June 27th at the McPherson Opera House. We went last weekend and it was truly an amazing show!

The munchkins were adorable...

The sets, costumes, and effects were phenomenal...


You can even get your picture taken with the cast at the end of the show...


Super FUN!! Well worth the trip. For tickets call the Opera House at 241-1952 or order them online here. You can also purchase them at the door, but I would recommend ordering them in advance to ensure they aren't sold out!! We took our two youngest, ages 5 and 7...they were on the edge of their seats for the whole thing!

If my sweet Munchkin can be transformed from this...

to this...



you know you will be entertained!!

Blogger Award

I received my first ever blogger award from Julie @ Growing Your Grass Greener. I am truly honored! Thank you, Julie.



There were certain rules regarding this award...

1) Thank the person who gave you the award.

2) Tell 7 things about yourself (in your blog)

3) Pass the award along to 15 other blogs you think are fantastic. (Even though there are way more that deserve the award.)

4) Contact the bloggers you've picked & let them know about the award.


I've thanked Julie, so here are my 7 very random things.


1. I'm afraid of heights. Gets worse as I get older. HATE, HATE, HATE overpasses...have to close my eyes...not a good thing when I'm driving!! Just kidding about the driving thing, but my hands grasp the stearing wheel and get terribly sweaty! I DO close my eyes if someone else is driving!!!


2. I'm a stuffer (NO, NOT my bra!! HA!!). If you came over to visit, I am guaranteed to have stuffed JUNK into a drawer, closet, or basket somewhere so that my house appeared clean!!


3. When I was 6, my 8 year old brother died of Reye's Syndrome.


4. I'm doing an exercise program called Crossfit right now. Some days I think it's going to kill me.


5. I've never been able to do a cartwheel. My attempts are quite a site!


6. I have a degree in Elementary Education.


7. I love black and white damask print!
