Wicked

Yesterday I went with Alicia, Brooke, and Mom to see the play, Wicked. It was amazing! I think everyone should see it. From a scale of 1-10, 10 being the best, I give it a 100! If I ever get another chance to see it, I'm going, for sure. It's funny, sad, happy, and everything in between.

Summer is Finally Here!

Summer is finally here. That means. . . Time to go to the beach!

Summer

Yeah! Summer vacation is so close! To celebrate, I decided to post some of last years pictures of Yosemite. (I wasn't there.) :)
Here's Riley in front of a large waterfall.

Here is a picture of Half Dome.

I just thought this picture looked cool. Nice view!

Clogging Competions at Lagoon

On Monday I got home from clogging competitions. The competitions were on Saturday at Lagoon in Salt Lake City, Utah. I had to do three class dances. We received two first places and one second! I also did a duet with my best friend, Julia Larsen, which won first place. We had tons of fun, going on rides in between dances.

This is Julia and me after all the dances in our brand new National shirts, while we wait to get on a ride.

Lauren was kind enough to do my makeup and my hair.

On these pictures, my class will be Star Steppin' IV.

Smoothie-licious!

Well, as you should know, my dad has a blog where people post simple, but delicious, recipes. I'm not part of that blog so I'm posting my own recipe here. It's a smoothie that I personally like to put into popsicle mold to make smoothie popsicles. Here are the ingredients (it makes two helpings, I think):

• Six frozen strawberries (without the leaves will taste better)
• One frozen banana
• A handful of frozen blueberries
• One strawberry yogurt
• Some cranberry juice

Here's a hint: put in more juice if you want it thinner. Put all the ingredients into a blender, put the lid on (of course) and blend. Every once in a while, (a very short while) take off the lid and push in the clumps with a spoon. Unless you like fruit chunks in your smoothies. Hence the root word smooth. When you've blended it to your liking, just pour it in some cups. Unless your desperate. :)

A Mixture of Holidays and Trips

As you know, Stanley is here on a trip. I have my 11th birthday coming on Thursday. Clogging competitions are on Saturday. Mother's Day is tomorrow. Everything mixed together equals craziness! We're mixing Mother's Day dinner and my B-Day dinner together. We'll eat my birthday cake tomorrow. I'll open my presents on the way to competition, and we'll take Stanley along with us. We're going to stay at Tyler and Kristen's house the first night, a hotel the following night, and a different hotel the last two nights, I think. Too bad I'll miss testing on Monday. . . :)

The Swine Flu

As you most likely have heard, there is a deadly swine flu going around. Tanner has informed us that he has some hopes that his school will close this coming week from the swine flu because they are going to start taking state tests. Although, he's also fine with just getting sick himself. The picture above is a trap! A very deadly trap. There have been few sightings of this terrible pig. Many have fallen for his friendly look and flattering talk. If you see this very pig, remember to stay clear of it! That's all for today, folks!
