Lagoon Day

Yesterday was the best Lagoon Day ever! The weather was perfect, the lines were short, and I ate a lot of chocolate chews!
Tizzy was so cute and I took Tolly on his first "roller coaster." It's called Bombora and his face on it was priceless. Going up the hill you could tell he was nervous. After following uncle Ryan's suggestion to put his hands up, the G-force knocked his head down to the side and he clenched his jaw with his eyes wide. He liked it though and told dad "It was fast and scary and slow at the same time!" :)
 
Ice cream at Pioneer Village was fun. Jennie and my mom now have techniques for getting the biggest scoops. I got mint chocolate chip and tried some Rocky Road, Almond, and Cheesecake.
After my dad used Tolly as a shield from the water on Rattle Snake Rapids, I didn't really trust him to go on any big rides with, but I forced myself to do it:) We went on the Spider, then Wicked! It was my second time on Wicked and I opened my eyes for some of it this time:) It was actually really fun!
My mom and I went on Air Race in which her sun glasses almost flew off and she inhaled a bug!
After being forced out of Lagoon by some nice security guards:) my mom took Ari, Free and Tolly to Cherry Hill only to find out it was closed, then going to Oakridge for a 2 minute dip. My mom is so awesome!!
 
Tizzy really did have a great time! Her and Jersey thought they were just too sophisticated for the seatbelts! ;)

There are so many things that make up a person. I know that "things" isn't the right word, but I can't think of something that adequately describes what a person even  would  be made of. Dreams, accomplishments, interests, regrets, mistakes, wishes, relationships, etc. I love ballet. I want to teach ballet, and I want to dance ballet. It's part of who I am. But my heart also yearns for the actress side of me. The little bite of real acting that I got at the age of ten in a production of Babes in Toyland in Salt Lake City. The countless drives to Ogden for rehearsals of Music Man when I was twelve. The ten-hour dress rehearsals of Jana's plays throughout high school. I miss that. My heart yearns for the flute. The peak of my playing my Senior year when I was practicing daily and could play Carnival of Venice like a pro. When I began to see what my practicing had accomplished and considered going on to play in a symphony. I miss French. Learning an entire other ...

Senior Flute Recital

*(I'm catching up)* November 21st Another rite of passage as my mom would say! Senior Flute recital! I had probably been practicing and preparing the repertoire for almost two years, not to mention the 8 years before that which allowed me to get to the level required to play the pieces. Cindy told me a Senior Recital wasn't required, but encouraged. It was good practice for auditions, stress and pressure management :) ;) and it was a good motivator to practice. I'm so glad I did it, even if it did seem overwhelming at times. I really started to love the flute during the months leading up to the recital. It was exciting to have something to work for and know that soon I could show what I'd been doing for so many years. I worked hard, but wasn't always the most dedicated student. Priorities often put flute behind school and ballet. Dance is my true passion and has been for so many years, but music has helped with dance and I'm thankful for the balance fl...
So my parents are off to Paris with Freestone and Tizzy. Lucky ducks! My grandparents are staying with us some of the time, but a lot of babysitting and homework is in-store for me this next week and a quarter so I was kinda stressed out. I spaced all my homework and remembered at 11 pm last night that I had a 100 question biology test, 2 Honors English assignments (That included reading) and 6 pages of math. So I woke up at 6, did it, planned to do the math during lunch and got ready in about 2.7 minutes. Luckily, I had tutorial so I went to get Algebra 2 help and finished that. Yay! And my science test turned out to be good, I could use notes and a textbook. I am so relieved right now and I think Heavenly Father helped a lot today. The Epic of Gilgamesh has nothin' on me today! :) PS Have fun in Paris guys! We'll miss you but not too much, I mean You're In Paris! :)
