Hello Bloggers!!
How was everyone's Thursday! I hope it was as terrific as mine was! Rehearsal was great today! We finally finished one of our productions, Sledgehammer, which is fantastic because now we only have two more hehe! It took us awhile to get Sledgehammer done, but we did it in two weeks! It is a very fun production to 80's music! I am sure that audiences will love it once it hits the stage! I am excited to all of you to see it! Be sure to get your tickets because our spring shows are just as amazing and fun-filled as Thriller!
This was the temple I went to tonight!:)
Well on to my highlight of the day! I GOT TO GO TO THE TEMPLE! Ah it was so nice going into such a peaceful and beautiful place tonight with such a great friend! I went with my friend that I am recently dancing with on Odyssey! His name is Tino Smith and he is a great person! The temple was beautiful! Since Tino lives in Salt Lake and I live in Provo, we decided to meet halfway in Draper! I have never been to Draper and all I can say is HOLY BIG HOUSES! The houses in Draper were ridiculously big! I literally saw a castle on the way up to the temple! I peed my pants and how amazing each house was! I swear the further I went up the mountain the bigger the houses got! But most importantly the temple was breathtaking! It overlooked the valley and the lights were beautiful! If I could live up there just for the view I totally would, but I will pass because all I get in a fuzzy radio and no service on my phone! Definitely worth seeing though! I was stupid and didn't take a picture, but I plan on going again so I will next time! It was so amazing to see the temple light up and look so pure and joyful! I am so blessed to have the opportunity to go to the temple and work for those that didn't have the chance! It makes me feel so much closer to my Heavenly Father! All the stress from the world goes out the door and all that enters is the Spirit and the Lord's presence! I loved going tonight! I am so glad I went! All I can say about the inside is WOW! BREATHTAKING! CLEAN! PURE! SPIRITUAL! ALL IN ONE! I am so happy I went to the temple tonight! Hopefully all of you LDS people can get to the temple! It is so worth the hour! Well I am so content right now that I am going to leave you with a strong testimony of the temple! It is beyond this world! It is so beautiful inside and out! It helps us gros closer to Christ! It helps us help others receive the Gospel thus continuing the LDS faith to grow more and more each day! I love the temple and I cannot wait to enter it with my loving husband someday!:) Have a great Thursday everyone! LOVIN LIFE!

Hello Bloggers!!
I hope everyone's Wednesday went great! Mine was great just like usual! I had rehearsal once again today and today was sort of a loopy day for me! For some reason everything seemed funny to me! I literally was laughing at everything! Luckily I kept my laugh on the DL so I wouldn't get into trouble with the big guy!:) I had a lot of fun at dance hehe! I was able to witness a almost death situation that happened between some of the company members and Katelyn Crump! Long story short, Katelyn had to jump into a sheet and the other members had to throw her into the air like a parachute, but when we were practicing the sheet ripped right in half causing Katelyn to fall straight to the floor! Thank goodness she is okay, but honestly everyone was laughing their heads off! It was like a fall in slow motion! Katelyn gracefully fell to the floor and the sheet just quickly ripped in two! It was one of the funniest moments of the day at ODT rehearsal! I am still chuckling as I am typing this up! Check out the video on Facebook if you are friends with Katelyn Crump! It was a classic moment! I love these moments at rehearsal! It definitely makes rehearsals more chill and less stressful! I am so happy its like that all the time! Other than the fall, today was just filled with funny comments and outrageously bad dancing in the back corner! It was fun at the opportune moment along with serious focus in ballet class! Today was a perfect day at rehearsal!
I have to say that I am so excited for tomorrow because I finally get to go to the temple! I am going with a former friend from ODT and I am so excited! Since I am not old enough I can only do baptisms right now, but as long as I get to go into the temple and do some good work for the Lord, thats all I care about! I am so happy about getting back into the temple! I haven't been able to go in awhile and I am finally going! Thank Goodness! What a joy it will be to spend some time there! The spirit is so strong and powerful! I get to do work for people who didn't have the opportunity to get it done here on Earth and I am so happy and feel so blessed to be doing it for them! I want everyone to be able to receive the Gospel and the blessings that follow! Its a life worth living for I think! I love the church and it is a true blessing in my life! I cannot wait to go! I will definitely post about it tomorrow!
So lately I have been addicted to Pinterest! It literally is a disease right now! I am obsessed with the amazing crafts that I have been finding lately and I want to try them ALL! They are so cute and fun! I wish I was talented in this area! I wish I could have more experience! I guess this is my time to try new things! Maybe this is a time to try a bunch of different things! Maybe time to get my Bucket List out? I think so! Time to be adventurous and try new things! Have more "umph" and be courageous! Time to be more perspective of things in life? I think so! Time for a change? I THINK SO!
I hope everyone has a great Wednesday!!!

Hello Fellow Bloggers
So I finally started rehearsals at ODT again and all I can say right now is that I am extremely stressed and grateful all at once! Instead of doing one show, we are now trying to get prepared for three shows! This year we are doing Romeo and Juliet, Sledgehammer, and DanceScapes! I am definitely grateful to be doing these shows! I saw DanceScapes and Romeo and Juliet last year and I DIED watching them both! So amazing with such incredible talent to witness from such fantastic people! I still can't believe that I am doing these shows this year! I am very excited to tell you all that I am part of the Montikrew (Montigue) clan! We are known as the "gangsters" of the show! I cannot begin to tell you how hard the Montikrew dance was! It was seriously worse than Thriller and Thriller was beyond stress for me! The choreography is hard musicality wise and the choreography is RIDICULOUS! I mean once I get it it will be a piece of cake, but until then I am practicing and practicing! Its incredible to me that picking up choreography and being able to do it is as hard and frustrating as doing Math (My worse subject ever)! Also I don't know if any of you fellow bloggers know Tadd! He was a recent dancer on So You Think You Can Dance this last season and is a former dancer with Odyssey still today! Well here is the exciting news, he is returning to dance with us in Romeo and Juliet and is going to take his role as Mercutio in the Montikrew clan! WOW! Can I just say how intimidated and excited I am to finally meet this guy! I was and still am a huge fan of him and his outrageous dancing skills! He is an amazing dancer and I cannot wait to meet him! All I can say is how lucky am I? Seriously life could not get any better! I am constantly surrounded by such inspiring people that make me want to work hard and become a better dancer and person! I am in love with it!
Well Christmas is finally approaching and I am so excited! Many memories are going to be born and most importantly I GET TO SEE MY BROTHER! Sadly my older sister and brother-in-law and my two cute little nieces wont be coming up for the holidays, but I still love them deeply! I am beyond excited to see my brother! I miss him so much! He is one of my idols in life! He has been through so much and yet he has still managed to come out on top! He made some bad choices in his past, but he realized his mistakes and now he has chosen a path that I am so proud of! He is such a great person and I am so lucky to have him as a brother! PLUS he has been working out so hard for his bodybuilding competition in February and I cannot wait to see how big he has gotten! Many pictures will be taken for you all to see! But most important it is our time of year to think about our Savior and His birth! This is the time of year to give thanks to our blessings over the last year and to love Him more than ever! This is the time of year to spend time with family and friends and create memories that will last a lifetime! I love Christmas! There is so much love, spirit, and joy in the holiday! I love spending time with my family! It seems that thats all I want to do during Christmas! I cannot wait to go home and see them! Such an amazing holiday to be a part of! Remember to create memories this year! Set new goals and plan to accomplish them! Have hearts of service and love towards those in need this Christmas season! You never know, you may save a life!:)

Hello Bloggers!
I hope everyone is enjoying their Sunday! I am for sure! Went to church and then relaxed for the rest of the day watching movies, watching the Christmas Devotional, and spending quality time writing letters! I have decided that this blog is going to be dedicated to my favorite things! I stole this idea from some recent blogs I have been looking at and I am really interested in doing it!
Favorites:
Movie: Transformers
This movie is so intense! It is filled with robots kicking some major booty, hot soldiers, and of course humor that makes me smile and laugh! This show will never get old with me and I have seen it to this day a total of 44 times! I am not kidding! I have counted! It is so action-packed and awesome and fantastic in every way!
TV Show: Law And Order SVU
I dont know why I am so attached to this show, but I cannot get enough! I love this show not because of the sex, but because it has true stories that happen in this everyday life! Things like this actually happen and it definitely helps me to be more aware of my surroundings!
Color: Purple Or Red
I am in love with these colors! They are bright, fun, and I have alot of clothes in these two colors! They are exciting to work with!
Holiday: Christmas
I love this holiday! It is such a special time of year for us to reflect on the birth of Christ! It gives us time to spend with family and friends! It gives us time to have make new goals for the upcoming year! We are blessed to have this holiday to celebrate each year!
Pet: Yorkie
Even though these dogs can be obnoxious and annoying, they are so dang cute and fun to play with! I plan on getting one once I have the opportunity! I want one of these so badly! I hope I can get one very very soon!
Place: Paris
Even though I have never been here I plan on going here someday! It is on my Bucket List and it will happen someday! It is a dream of mine! I want to see this beautiful city!
Vacation: Beach
Honestly you doesnt love the beach! I love everytime I get to go! So relaxing and fun and sunny! Definitely my kind of soother and stress reliever!
Restaurant: Zupas
This restaurant is so much fun to go to! I dont have a specific favorite thing because I get something different everytime I go! So fresh and yummy!
These are just a list of my many favorite things! They will continue throughout this month, but here is a starting point! Have a fantastic Sunday!
XOXO
