Universal Studios!

A couple weeks ago my high school choir and band took a trip down to DISNEYLAND!!! I was so excited and it was the topic of much of our conversation for a long time leading up to the trip! The day we left we came to the school early early in the morning yet everyone was happy and wide awake! Our bus ride was LONG but luckily I got the best seat mate ever... one of my best friends Alison! She is so crazy and we had a blast!
Our first stop was Universal Studios!

There are only like four rides in Universal but they are fun! We went on the Mummy and Jurassic Park multiple times! The coolest ride in the whole park is the backstage tour! They take you on a tram ride of all of the movie and tv sets where they film! I got to see where they filmed Big Fat Liar, The Three Amigos, Jaws, The Grinch, ect, and they even took us down Wisteria Lane (from Desperate Housewives) Let me tell you it was amazing to see! I never realized how much detail goes into each piece of scenery! After the tour we ran around taking pictures of all of the fun characters they have in the park.


The Apollo 13 Crew!


Frankinstien! He was a definite creeper! He kept rubbing my hair!



The hulk! I think I give him a pretty good run for his money as far a muscles go!


We then left the park and went to our hotel! I shared a room with my friends Alison, Natalie, and Bianca! We had so much fun in the hotel with no parents, no rules, and no bedtime! (Not that we did anything bad we just had a blast and stayed up really late!) We talked so much and it was amazing getting to know each other even better! The next day started EARLY! We had a Disney Workshop... but that will have to wait for next time!


Pie Crazies and Kate's Baptism

I have not had time to blog in forever so I have a ton to catch up on! First things first, our ward is getting ready to go to Girls Camp and so we decided to have a pie fundraiser! It was pretty ambitious to try to make 97 pies in four hours but we got it done! We made apple, cherry, and chocolate! At our house we made cherry pie...and more cherry pie...and more cherry pie! It was a ton of pie and it was hard work but we had so much fun! We talked and laughed the entire time!



And then later that day.... one of my cutest friends, Kate, got baptised!!! She is so sweet and I am so proud of her! Craig and I also sang " I heard him come" at her baptism. It was such a great experience!
