My little Sis is growing up! :D

This next Saturday (and the Saturday after that), is going to be very special for my family :D You see, my little sister is turning 8 and getting baptized. :D The 30th she will turn 8 (they day after I get back from Girl's camp!), and on the 6th she will get baptized. :) She doesn't seem that old! And she is so tiny too! Our cousin (who just turned old enough to be a Priest) will baptize her. It's going to be a special event! She will then be a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints! :D

But, I need your help!

We have 3 different dresses, and we can't decide on which one. I am going to post pictures and I would like you to vote on them to help me and my family. Of course, it's Beth's decision, but it might help if we have some tips and advice.

ThePianoGuys, Steven Sharp Nelson and Jon Schmidt!

So, as you know, I play the Cello. I've gotten to meet a few amazing Cellists as well.One of them is Steven Sharp Nelson! (I would link you to his site, but it's been compromised again. :/ If you are willing to go though, it is http://www.stevensharpnelson.com) I first got his Sacred Cello CD in Christmas 2009 I believe. I got it at the Deseret Book store in my area. I got it because I haven't been able to find very many LDS Cello CDs. I immediately fell in love with his music! As I have gotten more familiar with his music, he has become more of a star in the eyes of the world. He has recently teamed up with ThePianoGuys. ThePianoGuys is a music dealer in St. George, Utah. They decided to combine their video-making skills with the amazing artists who were coming though their store. You might recognize their name because they won YouTube's on-the-rise channel contest last month. Steven is just one of the many.

Moonlight! It just came out this week! :D

I first got to meet Steven a few months ago up in Rexburg where he was playing with Paul Cardall. Before hand, I had just really met him online though email, you tube, and Facebook. Let me tell you, when I met him in person, I was so excited my hands were shaking! I was like a little girl meeting one of those Disney stars... I even brought my camera! But I was so excited I forgot to get a picture! (I think that can tell you how excited I was, because, you know me, a complete shutter bug!) It was a great concert though! :D It was mainly about Paul, but he let Steven and Marshal McDonald play for a few minutes. Let me tell you, I was in laughing fits the entire time! XD Let me write a portion of what I wrote for my journal entry that day:

Hey there!

Hi there everyone! I just thought I would let you know that I was still alive. :) I'm writing a kinda-long blog post, so that is why I haven't blogged in a while... I have gotten some awesome photos though! I think you will like them! :D

Before and after!

rainbow!! :D

Yesterday we had a rainstorm, and afterwords, there was this stunning rainbow! :D Of course, you can tell it was edited... but it still looks pretty cool! :D

I've started to use the Picnik photo editor as well as Befunky. Fotoflexer seems to be down though. :/ They all have their strengths and weaknesses.

I hope you like how I re-did the blog as well. I really didn't like the way it looked. I really like it now, and I hope you like it too! (Especially because I figured out how to create more than one page! :D yay!)
