We're Off To See The Wizard

Well actually, last night we were off to see Dorothy! Chad and I experienced something completely new and different as we went to see our first ever grade school theatrical production. Our friend Quillen starred as Dorothy (at least in the first half) in the annual Raintree Upper Elementary production of The Wizard of Oz. After a rainy day, the weather was lovely, which was very lucky since the play was in Raintree's outdoor amphitheater. There were some really cute performances, and Quillen had tons of lines to memorize, and she didn't forget a single one! We were very impressed at all the hard work she put into it!

Another exciting part of the evening was seeing Quillen's cousin Gibson, who we've only seen a couple of times since his brain surgery last fall. The last time we saw him he still needed some assistance walking, but last night, he was running around like a normal boy who's almost five! We took a trip to Sheridan's for some custard after the show, and Gibson was chasing his uncle Grant all over the place! It was so good to see him doing so well!

For more information about Gibson's surgery, you can check my blog on the subject from last September, or you can check out Gibson's Caring Bridge site, where his mom keeps his family and friends updated on his progress!
