What a play!

Tonight Jeremy and I headed to Pleasant Grove to see "Wait Until Dark." It is based off of the movie that stars Audrey Hepburn. It was the perfect thing to get us into the spooky spirit of Halloween. A woman I visit teach is in the play and has the lead role of Susy, so we just had to see it. We arrived to the play at 7:15 and it started at 7:30. We went inside and they said it was already sold out for the night. They sold the last tickets at 7:10. We walked out the door totally bummed and an older couple stopped us and the woman asked, "Did they turn you away?" I told her they were sold out. She told us that they had two extra tickets (YAY) that her daughter was supposed to use, but she couldn't make it, so she asked if we wanted to buy them from her. We agreed, but then Jeremy didn't have cash, and I thought I had cash, but my wallet was at home and not in my purse (of course, right?). Jeremy was ready to go run to an ATM, but then the cute old woman said that she trusted us and that we could just mail them a check for the tickets. How sweet?! We thanked them profusely and hurried into the auditorium. We got their address and chatted with the couple until the lights dimmed. They were so kind to us. There are such good and caring people in the world.

And don't worry, the check will go in the mail tomorrow morning! Promise.
Oh and the play was GREAT! Hailey did an amazing job! We both loved it and were very impressed! Now we want to go rent the movie since we haven't seen it for years. If you have never seen it... YOU MUST. It's a classic!
