Cirque Du Soleil

*disclaimer. This post has NOTHING to do with Hadley

Last weekend the "fun committee" at my work took us all to Cirque Du Soleil. We saw Kooza, and it was A-Mazing! It was in a circus tent on the Santa Monica pier.  This was our first time seeing Cirque Du Soleil, and we both LOVED it!  This was also our first night on the town sans-Hadley.  We had our great friends watch her, so knowing that she was in good hands made it very easy to plunge into the world of babysitting.

Because I work from home, I was unable to get the tickets prior to the show so one of my co-workers had ours.   She was running late and we were early, so we stood outside the gate for almost an hour.  When 8:00 rolled around, she still wasn't there and the show was beginning.  A lady noticed us standing there and asked us if we had tickets. We told her we were waiting for them to come.  She just so happened to be in-charge of the VIP tent and offered us two tickets.  We got to sit in the very front, eat desserts with the VIPs at intermission, have our picture taken, and wear really cool lanyards.  Talk about being in the right place at the right time!

We really had a blast and highly recommend the show!

How fun to get out on the town! What is about accounting firms that makes them have an official, "Fun Committee." Ours has one too. It's like if the fun isn't scheduled, it just won't happen! Did we make a bad career decision! :) Just kidding. I would love to hear how everything is going. Hadley is a cutie.
