Well I have a few things to report on. We went to see Phantom of the Opera last night at the Fox. It was my first time inside the Fox. I have to say that place is pretty amazing. The show was really good too. I have 2 obervations abou it.
1) A couple we know just got married and the theme of their wedding was Phantom of the Opera. Now, tell me, for those of you who know the story, how does that fit into a wedding ceremony?! I just don't get it.
2) One of my favorite songs from the show is "Masquerade." Some of the words just stood out to me... "Masquerade! Hide your face so the world will never find you..." I was struk by the thougt of how true that is. I think too many times we as christians (myself included here) just try to "fit in" and be like the world. They can't look out at the party and see who's different because we're all the same. Matthew 5:16 says "In the same way, let your good deeds shine out for all to see, so that everyone will praise your heavenly Father." I don't know...it's just a thought, something the Lord's been speaking to me about and I'm sure there's more to come in that area.
Finally, Grandma Warakomski came over last night to watch the girls while we went to Phantom. Grandma is great, I love her to death and I REALLY appreciate all the times she comes over to babysit. She just cracks me up. Last night, she was concerned that Riley's legs were cold. So I came home to this......

Now, I know some of you out there have experienced grandmas concern for cold children, even when it's 90 degress outside, so you can relate. I just thought the combo what hilarious. But hey, her legs weren't cold right?
