Spring!

Wow, I really need to get on it and start posting more! I have just been so busy! It seems like April showers are coming a little early this year! We have had a TON of rain here, just yesterday my little sister Libby counted 220 worms in our drive way! Crazy huh? But I'm starting to see little snippets of green here and there, which is really good because I absolutely love green! Spring is definitely my favorite season. I just love it! I love all of the colors and just the feeling of new. New life, new growth, new weather, and plus, my birthday is in spring! I will actually be turning 15 in about two months. I'm very excited, just one year closer to lucky 16!

I just recently was in a choir concert in which my choir, an all girls choir called Anima Mea, sang some pretty crazy songs. I had to try out to get in Anima Mea, so it is a select group of girls and we can sing some pretty hard songs, and we did. The first song we sang was called "Some Kind of Music." This song was just a really pretty, soothing kind of song. It talks about that some kind of music that helps us when our pathway get dark and our life gets hard. That kind of music that carries us along when times get hard. Just kind of a tribute to that music. It was a really fun, melodious piece. The next song that we sang was a whole different mood. haha It was called "Johnny Said 'No!'" This was a very fun song to sing. It was accapella and about a girl who fancied a young boy named Johnny. She wants to marry him but, "Johnny Said 'No!'" That's about all I can say about it. You really can't get it until you hear it. The final song that we did was a gorgeous song called "Psalm 23." It is based on the chapter Psalms 23 in the Bible. Absolutely amazing song. I almost cry every time we sing it. We just have so much emotion that goes into the song that it, I don't know, its just crazy. It is truly an amazing song, I get chills just thinking about it! But anyways, the choir concert was really amazing.

This summer my friend Nathan L. and I are going down to BYU to attend a dance camp. Lets just say I'm really excited! It is a ballroom dance camp. I LOVE ballroom dance, especially country swing, it is one my absolute favorites. My friend Caleb A. knows how to swing dance really good and so we do it at all the stake dances and such. We are actually going to do a side act for the final show of the FX Show Choir. I am really excited for that. We do all kinds of cool moves and flips and stuff like that. Did I mention that I love to dance? haha:)
