A little sick, plenty busy, keeping the kids laughing, and having a marvelous time!

hello everyone! I don't have as much time today but I hope all is well for everyone! I was sick this week but blessed to still be able to perform in everything I needed to. I mostly just had a cold so I didn't feel too bad. Then we were blessed with extra time to go sleep and get better. Over half of us were sick this week! But I'm doing better! Also, Dad, there should be a Happy father's Day video on facebook that Mom can find! I'm in the middle in the row behind the elders. I started coughing halfway through so maybe that will help you find me, haha. Oh, i just got kicked off the computer even though I think there's a couple minutes left, but have a great week! I learned lots! And I met a fam that was super musical and so nice and they have been going to the temple once a week every week for the past 6 years at 5:30 am. They are so awesome!! Anyway. I need to be better. Love you all! Bye!!

Well, I guess this is it!! I only have one more Sunday here in Nauvoo and we will be really busy next week so this is my last email home!! Usually this is the really profound email that sums everything up but a week and a half is kind of a long time in some ways so I feel like this is just another email. We had our last night of Pageant last night and then we stayed after to help clean up chairs. I haven't been able to watch all of pageant since we normally go home as soon as we finish the last dance that we are in. I wish that I had family to watch the pageants because they were pretty amazing. After our last dance there is a couple scenes and then a sad scene where King Follet dies. I really wanted to see this scene because I recently found out that I am a direct descendant from him. It was a very powerful part of the show when they depicted Joseph Smith speaking at his funeral. This is where the King Follet Discourse comes from and the prophet talks about the li...

Family Reunion in Nauvoo--my family came to visit!

  hellooo!! So this was one of the best weeks here! My family came to visit, and it was so wonderful! I miss them already but I'm so grateful for the time I got to spend with everyone. It’s also been a little crazy this week though. We kind of felt like all of us were dropping like flies. 3 of our best dancers in the front row were out almost this whole week—so its been a little crazy, but most of the time you can’t tell. Also we are having pageant rehersals at 7:00 a.m. some days or in the evening until who knows when, haha. Also it's finally gotten crazy hot here. the heat index was 108 degrees yesterday. It was only 102 for our dance show though so at least that, haha. Pretty sure I've beat my record of the most I've ever sweat in my entire life. You know you're sweaty when you bow and can see a bunch of sweat drop and fall off your face. aaaand I havn't washed my dress in 3 weeks.... ahh!! don't worry, I get to tonight, there just ha...

Another crazy week in Nauvoo!!!

Hello everyone!! It's been another crazy week in Nauvoo!!! It's been surprisingly chilly here actually until this week. It's started getting pretty hot and it's only going to get hotter. Working out in rehearsal dresses over our sweats is definitely, well, sweaty. Thankfully it isn't too humid yet so I can adjust to it. But we will be in our real costumes on Wednesday! I'm so excited. But also nervous because we have less than a week until we open our shows for the public, ahhhh!!! We still have so much to do but somehow it'll all work out. Or at least it has to. We started rehearsing an extra hour every day so its been pretty tiring. We go from 8 am to 9:30 pm every day with an hour for lunch and for dinner. The first week we got here was the longest week of my life but now it's already started to go a lot faster. I thought it was still Wednesday when Friday came. When it did come though, we were kind of a mess. This Sunday has been really...
