Girls Night Out

On Saturday night Dad had arranged a huge surprise for Mom as an early birthday gift. So, Mom Jo and I were more than happy to carry out Dad's plan. First, dinner at Carrabbas, always a good choice. After stuffing our faces and stomachs full we proceeded to drive...and drive and drive and drive to an undisclosed location. Mom had NO idea where we were going and was trying to guess the whole time. All we told her was that Dad had gotten tickets to a concert/variety show and we didn't know much about it but we wanted to humor him anyway. So Mom starts freaking out thinking that we're headed to some cheesy musical or comedy show and that we were too nice to tell Dad that's probably not what Mom wanted for her birthday. Little did she know that we were really on our way to see her all time favorite singer LINDA EDER!!! Linda Eder is a Streisand-ish (but way better in my opinion) Broadway singer and has been in over 900 Broadway performances and has 10 solo cd's and 5 cast recordings under her belt. There really is no one that compares to her...she is UN-BELIEVABLE people! So we get to the theatre and Mom saw the sign advertising it and screamed! She was really excited. Our seats were amazing! 6th row!! And our Linda sang most of our favorites including this one from Don Quixote...yes I was bad and videoed :) (be sure to pause the music below before you watch the video) We had such a great time together. A shout out to Dad for doing a GREAT job pulling this together. Happy Birthday Mom! We love you!
