Phantom

A few weeks ago Eric and I had a super fun Saturday. Merry and Glen (Eric's mom & her husband), drove to KC Saturday morning. After they arrived that afternoon we went to Nebraska Furniture Mart and looked around, which I always enjoy. Then we came back to house to get ready to go out for the evening. We ate dinner at Houston's on the Plaza. Dinner was fabulous. We all chose to start with a salad and move on to the mouth-watering filet for our main course. The main event for the evening was to watch Phantom of the Opera at Music Hall. The show was spectacular. My favorite song of the musical was performed right before intermission, "All I Ask of You." (I have been pulling the song up on YouTube frequently since the show to listen to it.) Following the show we drove to Crown Center to have a drink at Benton's and listen to live Jazz. Unfortunately we were only able to stay for about 30 minutes since it was almost closing time when we arrived. The band, consisting of a vocalist, pianist, bassist, and drummer, was outstanding.
