Wicked The Musical Capitol Theater in SLC, Utah

We saw Wicked on August 7, 2014 It was a wonderful show!







This was supposed to be a photo of us, but the patron took a video instead.

These are my phone pictures, not as good of course.

Our Tickets


We love this musical, I tried to read the book recently- and sadly the book is quite a dissapointment. The Musical takes all the essential parts out of the book, and ads some that aren't there to really bring the great story that had so much potential in the book- to life!

So, if you want to read the book- I'd suggest skip it and watch the Wicked Musical instead.

Love, Chelsea

Ogden Temple Open House August 3, 2014

Dad and Christopher

It was a very busy Open House Day

Lots of Children with their Families

I loved teaching Christopher little things about what we use the Holy Temple for, and it's special rooms.







Thanks Robert for taking this photo, it was bright- but it's still a great picture!

I like this one too!


Lots of Children were playing in the fountains trying to stay cool
