10 things on the 10th

1. I have SOOO much to blog about!! Well kind of... I just have to blog about our visit to the northern rim of the grand canyon (Amazing!) and out trip to Utah, but I have a ton of pictures!!

2. For now here is a picture of some flowers I took at the grand canyon. I liked how it turned out!


3. Since I posted a pic from the grand cayon here is one from Utah! Here is my cousin's son Max. I love this kid!! He is so funny and he is a poser. (I also went to an awesome cupcake shop you all know I love.... but more on that later!)


4. A few weeks ago I started Seminary! I thought it would be super hard for me because I really don't like waking up in the morning till 9:00. Really! But so far it has been fine as long as I go to bed earlier than I used to. I have a awesome teacher and all of the freshmen girls in my ward are in my class!

5. On Thursday I started all my classes at the school I go to called MSA. I am taking two classes there. The 1st one is called "Pryrimd project". It's all about Math & science, patterns wondering about things (and learning about them) and then finding the answers. My 2nd class is called "Classical acting". If you have taken two years of Shakespeare you can be in this class. It's about acting, Shakespeare works and other classics. (I am taking other classes too, but the ones I'm taking at MSA started on Thursday. )


6. I am really ready for fall so I can do more baking and crafts! I have ideas from other blogs so I am going to make a list of great treats and crafts to make. Here's an Idea I love. Isn't that so easy but cute?!

7. Okay kind of boring but.... This is my Flicker page if you want to see my pictures. It doesn't have annything new on it but it will maybe this weekend!

8. So we went to the beach like twice this summer (Sad I know, but we forgot and there wasn't great weather for the beach. We'll be sure to go this month!) but one of the times I went I got this sunset shot I liked!


9. I want to get back to blogging regularly. Like once a week at least. It could be pictures or just writing. I just put it off a lot of times! I want to post a lot so someday I can make a blog book from all my pictures!

10. Okay I saved this for last! This great lady we know does musicals for groups of friends that want to do a play. She hasn't done one in a long time but she decided to and today were the auditions. (Everyone gets a part). Oh and the play she picked was "The wizard of Oz". The 2 people I wanted to be in the play was Glinda the good witch and The wicked witch". She kept the group super small so we could all have more parts and more lines.

I was picked for.....
Miss gulch (The mean lady)..........

AND the wicked Witch!
I have never had a super mean/bad part in a play before so it should be fun! I am working on my voices and my evil cackle! :)

A whole lotta fun

Fun thing # 1 - Back in April we found out a circus was coming to Poway. I've never been to a circus and we went on their website and watched a clip of one of their shows and it was impressive. They sent us these tickets in the mail and they were a pretty good price so we went! I also invited my really good friend Natalie to come with me and our cousins the Bakers came too! Here I am in front of the big sign they had.

Ok so you know I LOVE elephants right? They had Elephant rides and it was like $ 12 for 3 of us so of course we went on the elephant!

All of them. Yuuum....they were chocolate with cream cheese frosting.

Fun thing #3 - Camping with the Young Women! Before we go to girls camp they had us go camping before. We went to a place called Dixon lake about 20 min away. We have a special camping spot we love that over looks the lake! It is so pretty.

We played "Mini Uno" The cards are mini!
This was one of the good shots I got there.
Fun thing #4 - Our Shakespeare group preformed the play "Much ado about nothing. It was sooo much fun! Our tech week was last Mon - Fri and then we preformed on Fri and Sat night. We had LOTS of people come and we did great! It was so fun to be with these kids ALL week long instead of the usual Once a week. (All of us have studied Shakespeare for 1 -2 years)

Well that's most of my fun for now! And on a side note My camera is lost and we haven't been able to find it for over two weeks! :-( Were still lokoing though.
