Mamma Mia

I had a great time last week with some of my favorite ladies going to the FOX to see Mamma Mia. Mom, Susan, Carrell, Lynn, and I met at Olive Garden for dinner before going downtown. I did have a major downer during dinner in that I got a call from a very upset Jennifer who had just learned that one of her beloved acting teachers at Pebblebrook had passed away that day. The kids had just found out and they cancelled rehearsal and had to call their parents to get permission to drive home since the kids were all so upset. Mrs. Katie Grant was a wonderful teacher who helped guide SOO many kids over the years and she left behind a husband and 2 young boys after she lost her battle with brain cancer.  I was so sad for the kids and her fellow teachers/best friends and her family.
Here is a picture of her with her BFF's at school:

Mrs. Grant will definitely be missed by so many people!!

Once we arrived at the FOX, Carrell wasn't able to walk up the stairs so we were all able to come down to the main level for better seats.  We had great seats after that and all enjoyed the show thoroughly.  They did such a great job with the show!!
