A Picture is worth a thousand words...

Madamania nut cookie from Oakridge. Looks good right? Well it was, but it had freezer burn. So my mom took it back and we got a chocolatechip instead. We'll have to try again... :)

My friend got a bunch of dresses from her graduated friend so we went over to her house to try them on just for fun. Thanks Manda!

My bruise from Dance Company. Just one of many. They look so wimpy in pictures!

I took X and Tolly to the school to play and eat a special Milano cookie. Tolly is standing on DC and X is near SLC. It represents our summer!

I craved David's in Europe so this made me verrrry happy!

While I had a few days by myself at home, I made my dad a book of our NY trip. He loved the trip so much when he got home he did the ugly cry. My mom also did the ugly cry when telling the kids about the pioneers on their epic road trip. Tizzy was in the car with her and is into imitating lately, so she imitated my mom and said "Meep meep meep" So now whenever something is sad or we think of dad crying that's our inside joke. meep meep meep!

Shopping for school supplies with dad. I love this owl folder!

Dance Company workshop with the hilarious Caine! He loved my name! "Go-wull-dah!"

Tori taught me how to do ugly faces and I fake snapchatted her with a bunch of 'em

On Saturday we had the pool basically all to ourselves. Josh and Emily, Trajan, and Coco and Bill came too. It was so refreshing and pretty! It was getting stormy but we stayed, and then suddenly it started raining hard and fast! I just wanted to jump right back in but since there was lightning we were kinda kicked out for safety reasons.

Some more lovely pictures I sent to Tori

Apartment 51

My roommates are the best roommates of all time. We had a dance party the other day where Emmy introduced me to the 'nae nae song'. Can you believe I'd never heard it? I know. Emmy has quite the moves too. Gentry was doing laundry, which is an event because she actually does it the right way. Cold, warm washes; darks, whites, color, reds. The works. It took a few hours, so Emmy and I stayed up with her jamming out and chatting. We got a little depressed at how ugly our living room was because we'd had FHE at a guys' apartment earlier and their apartment was amazing. Framed vinyl records, leather sofa, big-screen TV, Ikea spice holders, quotes. We were put to shame. So we decided to put up a bunch of pictures on our wall. It now holds Gentry's towing ticket, pictures, The Living Christ, Proclamation to the Family, my Broadway tickets, a map of San Francisco and more. It definitely cheers up the room. We are going to hang a banner thing up too so we can hang temp...

I Was A Stranger

My mom began volunteering at the Asian Association refugee center, called Sunnyvale, when I was still in Orem. She told me all about the kids she worked with, and I wanted to go volunteer with her as soon as I could. She has a gift of really seeing people, so her descriptions of their little personalities, challenges, likes, dislikes, talents, and persona were vivid and true. After the LDS church made powerful statements on aiding, accepting, and loving refugees, my mom got a tidal wave of donations, offers to volunteer, and questions regarding the specific needs of Sunnyvale. Our porch is hardly ever bare of kind and generous donations. It was so neat to see individuals be so service-oriented and charitable. They gave in whatever capacity they could. My mom is good at offering time. Does she have time to run me down to Salt Lake? Yes. Does she have time to stop at every neat-looking rock on a road-trip? Yep. Does she have time to volunteer for three hours five times a week while...

Good bye Nutcracker

Nutcracker is over and I'm sad! It was so much fun and I made great memories. I fell on the last night during the Maid dance which was a bummer. My tray flew off my hand when I fell even with the strap on the bottom. I just pretended it was on purpose and made some hand gestures like I gasped and then walked off. Luckily it was at the end of the dance. I still had Waltz and finale and I wasn't going to let one fall make me sad or not do my best the rest of the time. Strangely afterwords I felt really calm and didn't really care until after party scene. It was kind of funny and I didn't hurt myself. The weird thing was that right before the performance I felt like I was going to trip or fall....and I did. Hahaha, well I'm just the really clumsy maid now :) Maddie is a pro photo bomber. I just wish she'd bombed one of the bad pictures instead! My favors for the Waltz gals Emma being me...haha she'd be a great Maid! :) Love her Cutie...
