Last thing...

For those of you who didn't know our cat (Onyx) had kittens a little bit ago. :D

Pictures!!

There are three kittens and they are adorable!!

By The Way.

I did a shakespeare play called 'A Midsummers Night Dream'.  I was a pretty small part (Hippolyta Queen of The Amazons) but it was fun to be with everyone in the cast.

Here are a few pictures of my costume and I'll post some pictures of the cast in a little bit.. (I can't find the camera they are on.. :P):D

Whole Bunch.

Today has been busy!  We got all our jobs done in the morning and then we worked on the garden from 1-5:30.  :D  We got a bunch done but we still have more to do. Here are some pictures of the garden. Enjoy!

We put in four boxes to do square-foot gardening. (And it helps something else but I don't know... :D)

DRAMA HIGH!

Most of you read McKenna's blog so you probably know all of this but oh well...  :D

Our performances ended last week on saturday evening. It was the best performance yet (even though it was the last) and I was very proud of everyone in the cast.  It was one of the best experiences ever!  I had so much fun I bonded with everyone in the cast from ages 5-17 and up. :D 

The next play they are doing is "Seussical The Musical" and I have been wanting to do it for a REALLY long time. :D I am so excited!

Auditions for Seussical the Musical and our stake play "Hello, Dolly" are next saturday. For my Audition piece I'm going to sing "Gimme, Gimme." From Thoroughly Modern Mille.  I need to find a monologue still. (Preferably silly) so if you have any ideas let me know. :D

This is a little snippet of what I sang. I think the rest will be up on youtube in a little while. :D 

 

My Uncle Phil was AMAZING and he recorded the entire thing and made it really cool with his really cool talents.. :D

By The Way:  This video has been up for four days and it already has 314 views... creepy... :D

German ROCKS!

Our first performance was awesome!  I messed up a bit on "Strongest Suit" and a couple of other songs but otherwise I think it went pretty well. :D

I'm really sad that it's almost all done. :( After all the time we've spent together it makes me want to cry. ;(

The Last performance is tonight at 7:00pm at the Barclay Theater. (On this website it has the address. You can Map Quest it or google. Whatever you'd like. :D)

I love you all!  (Remember to comment!)

P.S.  I LOVE THIS SONG!  It's called: "The Girl" by City and Colour. I can play a little bit on it on the guitar. :D

Watermelons

All-right you guys. You need to post on my blog!  I want feedback so I can make my posts better.

Anyways.  Today I had Shakespeare practice and two performances and Senior Living Homes (McLaughlin and Berry Park). Now I am home playing the Guitar and posting on the blog of mine.

OK, So I'm TRYING (and failing) to learn four instruments.  Guitar, Violin, Harmonica and I already know allot of piano.  I would say Violin is defiantly the hardest. :D Guitar is pretty hard but it's going OK. Harmonica is really fun.. I just need to get one that works.. lol.

What is everyone's opinion on my blog?




P.S. I really want to try a purple potato. Don't you?

Doctor Seuss.

Goodness Gracious.  It has been one Crazy week!  AND we still have three more days. :P

So we didn't have any performances on Monday but on Tuesday we had two.  We went to Mulino and then practiced and then straight over to Molalla River.  (Which is in the middle of nowhere!  It took us forever to find it!!)  Anyways,  The first performance at Mulino wasn't as good as the second in Molalla. (It was in the morning so our voices went totally warmed up.. :P)
Today I didn't have any practices with Musical Theater.  I did have a 4 hour practice with the Shakespeare play. :D  It was pretty fun. :D  I love acting with my friends!  And I LOVE how cleaver Shakespeare is... lol


I think the week is going to be ALLOT more hectic in the next three days, because tomorrow we have two more performances, on Friday I have a Shakespeare practice till 4:00 and then a Musical Theater practice right after that till 8:00 and on Saturday the performances!  (I'm excited)



RANDOM Question:


If you had to pick which one would you choose:

To save a forest from a deforestation?
or
To save the ocean from a massive oil spill?




The Book Thief is a good book.

Geez.

AHH!  I haven't written in forever!  Alright.  I need to blog WAY more often.  (the only problem is I keep saying that and then I don't... :P )


So,  What have I been up to... 
Well I am part of a Musical Theater Traveling Troupe.  We travel to different schools and nursing homes and preform.  We did this last year and it was tons of fun!  This year we're going to have a big performance at Barclay Auditorium on The 22nd and maybe the 21st. (I will post directions later.)   
Today we preformed at one of the schools (Mt. Pleasant) and it went pretty good for our first time. :D
I am also in the OYLI Shakespeare Play.  We are doing "A Midsummer's Night Dream."  The play dates are 25th and the 26th of this month.  


Adam had his 12th Birthday on the 4th!!  He now has the priesthood!  It was a very awesome experience being able to see my own brother receive such an important part of our gospel.  My Grandpa Rumsey, Grandma Tracy and Grandpa and Grandma Fox came in town and Sunday evening they and my Uncle Phil and Aunt Katie and my Aunt Tracy came over we had family desert. :D


Right now I am working on my project for my Pyramid Project class.  I am doing it on Perception, Dissonance and Paradigms.  Its coming along OK but I have to present it to a lot of people on June 5th and I'm not ready. :D  (I hate Procrastination!)


Samuel had his Birthday on the 12th and now he's 4!  He is getting so big!  A little bit ago I just realized how big he was getting and how much he could talk.  He likes to tell stories and play games. 




I found this interesting story the other day:


37 Angels were standing in a wheat field singing praises to the Lord.  One day the littlest angel of them all stood up and sang a glorious solo that filled the earth.  That one song floated to the heavens and God heard that single song.
God called that little angel into the highest of courts and said: "Little one.  I have heard your voice and I have wondered what has made it so glorious."
The littlest angel answered back saying: "Dissonance is the key to happiness my Lord.  If we did not have it, we would not exist.  My song was pure dissonance and resolution."
