Last weekend part of the Godspell cast took a trip to Goodwill and Lakeforest Mall in search of costumes for the play (that opens in 5 weeks!!). The church let us use one of the buses and and the lovely Christy Hickman lead the adventure.

"Um guys, where's the men's section?"
"That is the men's section, silly"
"Oh."

The boys were very unimpressed. In fact, none of us could find anything applicable for a play. (Yes, I just used the word applicable.) Brittany did find a classy white oxford that belonged to a giant though. Like really, the sleeve went about 2 more feet to the right of this picture.

Stephen couldn't find anything "classy" enough for his costume so he went across the room and posed for this inspirational shot. Mmm. I should make a poster out of it and give it to a doctor's office? No?

And thus we concluded our time at Goodwill and went to the mall where we were the girls actually found some pretty good stuff at Forever 21. I can't wait for you guys to see this show. I hope you enjoy it as much as we have.

Today Natalie and I continued our photo adventures. Since she surprise visited me last night we decided to spread the joy and picked Mrs. Ellis as our next target.

First, was a quick stop at Panera where Natalie proceeded to kill her tea with 7+ packets of sugar...no joke.

Of course we had to take a picture of the classic "I like you and you're my student, but I dare you to ruin my floors" sign out front. Oh, how we've missed Mrs. Ellis!

It was also great seeing the kiddos in the Biology class. Here's us at our bygone favorite 10th grade test-cramming spot on the stairs. "Femur, radius, ulna, latissimus dorsi...uhhh."

Once class ended, we adopted Mike (some guy with an afro) and drove him to McDonalds.

I don't think there's an explanation for this part of the story, but for some reason Natalie had a bunch of wigs in the back seat of her car. Yep. Unfortunately, Mike's wig...well you couldn't even tell he was wearing one. See?

Mike needed a drink refill so we dared him to go inside with it on. I put on my best granny face as well. And Nat...she stayed true to her snow angel self.

Mike needed an ego boost so we stopped by the Hallmark card section. Congratulations, guys. Really I'm impressed.

And thus the day ended, much like it began...by walking through a gas station? Why not. What great pals.
