Tomorrow...

Hi there! I can't believe tomorrow is my birthday (already!) I'm so excited! I'm going to be 15... WOW! That sounds almost old. Everybody here is being all secretive and obviously planning things. I can't look, I can't listen, etc. etc. Oh well, I'll find out tomorrow what they're up to :).
       On Friday I'm having my real birthday party. Two of my friends are coming over and Mom is taking us to Olive Garden for a dress-up fancy dinner. Then they're come back to spend the night, and we'll probably stay up late (why else would it be called a sleepover? :) and do crafts and talk for a while. I can't wait!

Well, I have several demands for play, so I better go (Mom says it's because in a few hours I'll be 15 and never play again. oh seriously). Just think, my next post will be when I'm 15!

Hi Again

Wow, it's been a while since my last post! I've been really busy with school lately, but now that it's the weekend I might have more time.

We've had typical Kansas weather lately. Last Thursday, the 17th I think, it was 70 degrees at least! Then this past Thursday it SNOWED! Oh well, Spring is coming. Good thing it's usually early in Kansas!

Try this

I tried to put the movie Concerto movie on again, so we'll see if it works. I sure hope so! 

Sorry

Sorry the movie of the Concerto Competition isn't working. I can't get the website to download it, so I'll have to find another way. I hope I can find SOME way to get it on here...

Concerto Competition

Today I participated in a piano concerto competition. I played my song with my piano teacher accompanying me, instead of an orchestra. I've been practicing the concerto for MONTHS. And I had to play it from memory. Thankfully, God gave me confidence for my performance. I also got to watch a few of my friends play as well!  The hardest part was probably having to play it in front of people other than my family and teacher. The most exciting part is, I got 2nd place in my division (7th-9th grade)!!! That did mean I had to play my concerto a second time for the "Winner's Concert", but I played it about the best I've ever played it that time! Over all, it was a really neat experience because I've never competed in pretty much anything except volleyball. I am glad it's over though... :) The best part for y'all is Mom got it on video! Here you go!

Some Favorite Pictures

Here are some of my favorite pictures I've taken. I think quite a few of them are from last summer or fall.

As you can probably tell, I really like to take close-up pictures, especially nature things :).

First Post!

So, my very first post! I'm excited! I've been wanting to start a blog for a little while now. Here's what I plan to use it for:

• posting pictures
• posting stories
• writing about what I'm doing
• lots more!

I hope it will be helpful for those of you who live far away to learn a little more about what I my life is full of. And those of you that live close, just for fun!

I'll put some of my favorite photos on soon!
