Just a Few Random Things!

1) I was looking back at old posts. I have to laugh, because they are either really cheesy or completely stupid. Like a friend said "Anything I say now, will probably sound stupid in the next few days!" I can't believe how long I've had this blog, but yet I can! I don't know, you be the judge, has my style changed? Does it "sound" different?

2) I have an ingrown toenail, as nasty as it sounds. I had an appointment at the doctor today, so he ended up looking at my toe too. It was nasty, meaning, it was inflamed, infected, etc. It wasn't a pretty sight and it hurt like crazy. So he side cutted the nail. It hurt when he cut it. I cried, screamed, and hyperventillated. (Just curious, how do you spell that?) I wonder how sound proof the walls are, because another nurse popped her head in and asked if I was ok!

3) It is March 26th, which means that in 1 month I am in the air to NYC! Can anyone believe that it's March? And with this weather? It's been a crazy winter, if that's what you want to call it! Specials started on Saturday! I am quite excited, as odd as it may sound, we still don't know who our company is, but with all the funerals etc, it's no wonder! It will just be a surprise? ;) Also, we only have 30 some days of school left! Something like that! People were talking about that today! Either way, this year has gone quite fast! Anyway, nothing else new here. I hope that everyone is doing well! Happy blogging!

Small Group

Today was small group contests. For those who don't know what that it, it is a vocal/band/piano contest, where students from different schools prepare for solos/duets/trios/quartets/etc and get rated. 1 is the best that you can possibly get! I originally was going to do a solo, duet, and triple trio. But I only ended up doing the triple trio. There were some judges who were harder than others, but some were very nice. We didn't have to sing until 2:30. We were the last freshman triple trio to sing. We got a 1! :) We were the only freshman triple trio that did!! :) So we were all quite happy about that. Anyway, that's all the news really! Hope all are doing well!

Little People #2

It's finally here!! I decided to put brother/sister together in this one. They are adorable, then again, I'm their aunt, who is bias, but I say all my nieces and nephews are adorable. :) I can't wait til the next two are born! Family time will be louder, but it will be worth it!
Nothing new here really. 6 weeks and I fly to NYC! I am quite excited! Oh, and specials start soon!! I am very excited for that!! Hope all are doing well!

Creative Eye


A friend of mine has been doing a 52 week photo feature. I've been saving different photos and creating collages with them. They are quite talented! (In case you didn't notice!)
I love photography and looking at different photos! It makes me want to go and buy a camera of my own! :)
I should continue my "Little People" posts, but I have been distracted by the above photos! Hope all are doing well!!

News!!

I should really continue my "Little People" posts. But I have news!! This type of excitement spreads like wildfire usually. One person finds out, they tell another, so on and so forth! I have permission to tell people, but they didn't say anything about my blog!! But here it goes!! Remember how a few posts back I said I was going to be an aunt for the 7th time? Well, I still am, but that baby hasn't been born yet! So we got a call Wednesday night, and my brothers never usually call that late at night. I thought it was the one who lived in Oregon, but it wasn't. So my mom finally gave me the phone and I was the one in Wyoming. The first thing I asked was "Are you going to have a baby?!" I was right!!! I am going to be an aunt again!! :) I can't wait. 8 times, so maybe these next 2 will be girls, then there will be 4 boys and 4 girls ;) But I'm sure it won't work like that!! Maybe 1 of each, or both boys, or even both girls :) Anyway! Hope that everyone is doing well!

Little People #1

So I have decided to make collages of my nieces and nephews! I started with Lincoln. He is getting to be quite a big boy ;) The current pictures are the two black and white ones next to each other. They were taken at Christmas.
This weekend my grandparents are coming down and also Eric and his family! Next weekend is when I go to Chicago for LEAD conference. It should be fun! Well, maybe not the 7 or so hour ride! But the rest should be :) Other than that, I don't have much else to say! Hope you're all doing well!

Groundhog's Day

Frankly, I think it's overrated. I mean seriously. Either way there's going to be 6 more weeks of winter!! :) Because there are 6 weeks til spring! The weatherman says we're supposed to get a "huge" snowstorm this weekend. Now that remains to be seen! :) Hope you're all doing well!!

Hey There!

I had the weirdest dream last night, and as it progressed, it got weirder :) Interesting what our minds do while we sleep! Anyway! We have Small Group Contests coming up soon, March 24th, so I've been practicing my music for that, which I'm really excited about! I'm doing a solo, duet, and triple trio. I was asked to mentor for a few kids, so I started that today. I just pulled a dozen and a half chocolate chip muffins out of the oven! :) Yum! Oh and I am currently going through an obsession with clementines!! They are the best!! ( I got through several a day!!) School is going great! Been busy, but not too busy! My family is all doing well! My sister is due in 2 months or so! Which is quite exciting! I found a lot of amazing ideas from Pinterest! I'm sad, because I don't have an account to link it too, they only recognize a few, quite pitiful!! Anyway, how you're all doing well!!

Here is a collage I threw together from our time together :) It was a lot of fun. Some of these are repeats, but some are different. Also, my brother fixed my computer!! I am very happy and excited :) Hope you're all well.  Have a great weekend :)

A Few Pictures

Photo credit goes to my brother, Eric. Just a few pics from the holiday time. Don't have one of everyone, but here are a few!! By the way, I have hardly ever put up pictures, so excuse the funky formatting :) Hope you're well!!
