Ballet Recital 2011

And of course we had to celebrate with Yogotogo!

Nothing to do with recital. just a gorgeous pic. of a sunset:)






We've been at Weber almost every day for 2 weeks and I love it! This year the theme was Once Upon A Time. I was hoping I'd be a Princess or Fairy, but I was Seaweed, a Rat and Christmas Feast! That's okay, it was so fun and I still got a Princess costume for my ballet dance! In my favorite colors! :) My teacher Marsha gave our everyone in our class a rose, which was so nice! Sara's mom was a lifesaver in Lexie's quick change and my mom helped me with mine too. This was my first recital en pointe and it was slippery and I couldn't breathe in the corset, but when you are on stage you forget about that. It was so much fun and all my friends are so fun and nice.  I'm going to work really hard next year!  I can't wait!
I guess this is the end of Once Upon A Time 2011 Ballet Recital. So... The dancers lived Happily Ever After!

And here are the funny quotes from the recital. Only Ruby, my mom, Ari and I and a couple other people understand them.

"Dry ice."      "Gasp!"       "Okaaaaaaaayyy..."
"How do you  try?"
"Why did they lell, why did they yew... Why did they do that?"
"There are more germs on the envelope than on my eye lashes!"
"CLYTIE, DO YOU WANT ME TO TAKE SOME OFF THE CROTCH!?"
"I'll just get that off my foot later."
"I need three more pennies!"
"Ohhhhh, magtania! Is that French?" "That's magenta Lex."
"I've raised four kids, five if you count Golda."

The Help by Kathryn Stockett The Help is a great book for young adults and mature teenagers. It is education, funny and insightful. It is 444 pages, but a definite page turner. I rated it 5-stars because it is such a great book. It is basically about how unfairly African-Americans were treated in the 1950s and 60s. It changes perspective about every chapter, but it's fairly easy to follow along. It is from the point of view of 3 women from Jackson, Mississippi in the 1960's. Aibileen, Minny and Miss Skeeter are the narrators. I thought it was unique that it had more than one narrator and it allowed you to understand the story much better. Aibileen (my favorite character) is a black women who is "the Help" to Miss Leefolt. She is kind, wise and smart. Throughout the story she develops a strong bond between Miss Leefolt's little girl, Mae Mobley. Miss Leefolt is very strict and rather  oblivious to Mae Mobley. She doesn't really know how to raise her, so Aibil...

Places

California is warm, humid. It is cool mornings of dolphins emerging from salt water, and surfers catching the dusty turquoise waves. Montana is earthy, wild. It is shy deer, proud bears, and lazy buffalo. It is walking around in cowgirl boots to town, and riding horses through dry grass. San Fransisco is bold, fun. It is the golden gate bridge spanning your imagination and adventure. It is China Town; red, gold, jade. Paris is rich, beautiful. It is modern galleries, and centuries old cathedrals. It is walking, crepe in hand, to a new place that hundreds of years ago, a King walked too.It is watching the Eiffel Tower sparkle like a new constellation that was made just for you. Idaho is comfortable, familiar. It is sitting by your cousin roasting marsh mellows and listening to the river and the crickets.  Utah is different, scenic. It is hot summers, and snowy winters. It is looking at a pink smear of sky, glowing like a constant candle behind navy and ivory mountains. It is ho...

On the seventh day of Christmas

December gave to me....early out from school! Davis made their goal of getting $6,500 in 5 minutes during our "Dash for Cash" and earned a 'Christmas Officer Talent Show Assembly'. Otherwise known as 'Go Home After Four Shortened Class Periods.' So we got out at about 11:45 and Emily, Amy, Ruby, Emily M and I went to Fiiz and Bowman's to get stuff for friend gifts. I got some Lindt truffles. We went to Emily's for lunch, then Emily and I went to Farmington Station for a successful holiday shopping trip. Then we went and got her little sisters; Christina and Ellie, and I got Ptolemy and we went to Alexander's Bad Day at Kaysville Theatre. My mom ended up going too and taking Xanthe and Tizzy, who we hadn't had room for in Emily's car. It was such a cute movie! Then I took Ari and her best friend Ellison to Yogotogo. They're such cute girls. It's funny to hear their Junior High stories/experiences/slang. Oh those good ole' awkw...
