Lumiere place show

Alright guys here's a better taste of what this blog is gonna be cause this post has nothing to do with church or theology. It is an announcement though.

Tonight at 7, my parents and I are going to see the "Elvis tribute show" at Lumiere Place. Tickets are $15 and I HIGHLY encourage you all to come cause it's gonna be great - we saw the Legends show there, and it was wonderful, so I know this one is gonna be too. Seriously, everybody come!!

Some of you may be wondering why I'm encouraging you to come see an Elvis show, or why I know about it at all. I'm good friends with two of the dancers in the show, Jill and Haley! They came into my mom's shop, Looking Glass Designs, several weeks ago. They love history and old houses and asked if they could see my parents old house. So I met them when they were touring the house, and we've gotten to be good friends. These girls are AWESOME! Sad thing is it's the last show. They actually leave town tomorrow. Haley's going to New York to audition for Broadway and a European tour. Jill's headed back to Vegas, which is where her husband is in the Air Force. They're deciding whether to do a 6 week tour across the country with the Elvis show or something else. But regardless of what they do, they won't be in St. Louis anymore. I'm really gonna miss them.

People like Haley, who before she came here said "I"m done with Vegas, I'm packing up all my stuff and will just see where life takes me, either to St. Louis, NY, Europe, or a US and Canada tour", and Katie Mohr, who moved to Guatemala for 7 months when she was adopting her son (I was on a total blog kick this week what can I say), really inspire me. I look at these women, or my sister, or my mom, who have just gone for stuff without knowing exactly what was gonna happen, and say "If they can do it, so can I!". And that's exactly what I'm gonna need over the next year, as I apply for jobs across the country (and across the world - I applied for one in England).

K that's long enough, you've had enough madness for today. Hope to see some of you at the Elvis show at Lumiere place at 7 tonight!
