We Won the Lottery!!

Ok so we won the "Wicked Lottery"
We did a couple lotteries for Broadway shows when my family was here but since that was the busiest week of the year in NYC we didn't win a thing. Tyler left to sell in Texas today so we wanted to do something fun this weekend before he left. So we thought we'd try the lottery again. Even though it was a Saturday night we thought that there would be less people than during the holidays, wrong! There were just as many people, like 100-150. I was bummed but of course had to go for it. We put our names in and waited in the cold (single digits, below 0 with windchill!) They started announcing the winners and my name was called fifth! I flipped out (inside) and took my place in line...

What does it mean to win the Wicked Lottery? Oh just front row tickets to that nights show for $25!!! It was crazy being that close to the show. This picture is taken from our seats, where we could touch the stage without even leaning forward.

I have seen the show 3 times and each time has been a completely different experience; different companions, different seats. It is such an amazing story and I love finding more and more parallels every time I see it. We feel very lucky to be living here with such great opportunities like this and so many fun things we can do together!
