Still kicking in Hershey....

Ahhh! What a crazy week, I know its been a whole week since I blogged! We are actually almost done teching the show, we will finish up today with the nativity and then our curtain call. This is good news because we are way ahead a schedule....they planned on us getting done on Friday! There are many things I'm sure we could go back over, like the Santa number because it has so many elements to it; there are 3 turntables, trap doors, elevators, the bells....its a slight chaotic! I cant wait to add costumes! I actually got to wear my "Shine" costume yesterday for lighting while we teched the number. Usually 3-4 girls wear their costumes for each dance so that the lightening guys can get the look they want with the colors of our costumes. You all know I've talked about this costume before, its amazing, we are just dripping in diamonds!
I celebrated my 24th birthday last Saturday! My first birthday to ever be celebrated in a Rockette season! The girls were awesome! They totally made my day! My friends surprised me with a cake at the end of rehearsal and they all sang "Happy Birthday" to me and I got to blow out candles! We ended up in a circus tent inside the Hershey Park (long story....may have to save that one for another day) to clean sections of some dances....anyway, on our 10 minute break we all ran out to the fun slide that was right next to the tent and slid down! It was hysterical to think of riding an attraction on our 10 minute break! The birthday celebration continued to our day off on Sunday, and my friends and I went and visited Gettysburg! It was really interesting, I enjoyed learning about all the different people and battles and experiencing it in person. I've got some pictures from the weekend that I will get loaded up here in the next day or two! Miss you all and hope everyone is doing well!
