All For One



Homecoming 2013 was a blast! For the day activity we helped one of the guys with his Eagle Scout project which was actually really fun. Then I left to go to the Dance Company tailgate dinner that dad, Ari, Free and Xanthe got to come to and then we all met at Davis for the Homecoming game! We killed Viewmont! We left a little early since it was so cold and it was 32 to 0. We got hot chocolate and went to Junstin's house to play games. We played a really funny game similar to Apples to Apples that I won.




The next day I had ballet and Nutcracker and then got ready. My mom was sewing the sleeves of the dress on a few hours before I was picked up. We got a pretty vintage dress from a French boutique in Bountiful. My grandma made the straps for me and my parents ran around everywhere trying to find a little jacket after deciding the sleeves weren't thick enough. I was a little stressed but of course it ended up fine!
My parents are so willing to get/do whatever I need even if I'm not sure what that is. I'm so lucky to have them!
We took pictures at Kyle's and had dinner at Justin's. The boys Their moms made dinner and it was delicious!
The dance was really fun. I saw all my friends and they played great music. In the big gym the jazz band was playing old-fashioned music that was fun to dance to.
After the dance we went to Justin's again to have dessert and play games. We had this Oreo Reese's dessert thing that was heaven! Oh my goodness it was so yummy
Homecoming 2013: success!



Thanks for being such a fun date Evyn!

My dad wasn't as embarrassing as I thought, but still, he was embarrassing.   :)

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...
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 ...

Italia

Ciao! We are in Italy! We woke up at four and went to the airport. We cut it close, which means we just didn't have two hours to waste in the terminal;) the flight was so short! Luckily everything with our bags worked out which had been a little worrying since we took EasyJet. We arrived at the Argenti's and almost immediately left to take a train to Venice. Another American family is here staying nearby who are friends so they also came to Venice. It was weird to speak English to someone besides Ruby! Venice was amazing! It's so pretty and colorful. It was very hot and kind of crowded so we didn't stay in touristy parts the whole time. The water is turquoise and the buildings are intricate and charming. It's kind of like Paris but sassy. If that makes sense. We got yummy pizza and gelato. I told the dad my and Ruby 's order for gelato and he thought it was just mine. So I got two scoops! So much ice cream! Italian is so beautiful and basically a combination of...
