A Christmas Carol

For our ward Christmas party 2009, our bishopric arranged to take us all to A Christmas Carol at Ford's Theater (where President Lincoln was assassinated, for you history dunces). We all got together at the church and had a ward dinner. It was delicious. Then those who had signed up to go and helped purchase tickets walked to the metro and metroed down to Ford's theater.
This is a small group of the people that went (L to R): Susan, Molly Carl, me, Sally, Sarah, Adam and Merry.
Before the show, we got to look through the museum in the basement of the theater. It was really nice! I got a book about the theater, which I still have not read (despite the fact that I'm writing this over a year later... Don't judge). This is me with Abe.
Umm... Most people would consider my picking the nose of an iron cast of the president's death mask to be inappropriate, but if you know me, it's probably not too shocking.
Some men... Jeez.

The show was AMAZING! I absolutely loved it. It's rare that I so thoroughly enjoy myself at a theater performance. I usually spend too much time thinking about the logistics and how it could have been done better, but this show was impeccable! Wow!
