Happy Mary Poppins Day!!

Today was a very special day for me! Ever since I was a child my favorite move has been Mary Poppins. I always told everyone that if I had the opportunity to see the Broadway production of it then I would be front and center. Last year I was on the Paramount Theater website and I called my Dad and told him that if I was living there or not that I would be in town for this play! I bought my tickets a couple of months ago and just waited for the day to come! Well, today was the day!

 Practically Perfect in Every Way!!

An iconic venue in the heart of Seattle, the Paramount Theater presents the best in Broadway shows and live entertainment. Originally opened in 1928 the theater has been restored and maintained as one of Seattle's premier entertainment venues. The inside of the theater is breathtaking!

An Afternoon in Upper Queen Anne!

For a few months everyone in my family has listened to my sister talk about the amazing views from Kerry Park. Every time we planned on heading up there our trip would get rained out. Finally we were able to make it up to Kerry Park yesterday and I never expected to have my breath taken away by the view! I honestly think that this is the best view of downtown Seattle!! Everyone who comes and visits me from now on will be taken here!!

I couldn't get the entire view in one photo...so I took three!!!
 Some other pictures from the day!!

Here is a brief video of the view from Kerry Park!!
