The Wiz

Hello!

This whole summer I have been in a musical produced by Youth For Christ (YFC) called The Wiz. It is basically a retelling of The Wizard of Oz. We practiced this musical for three months until finally the day came where we would do our performances. We did 5 performances in total and it was a lot of work and wearing tons of makeup. I had a wonderful time though and made many new friends that I hope to keep for a long while. Here are some pictures of them:

This was the day of our last performance.

Well as they say, "All good things must come to an end." I will never forget this experience that I've had with all these lovely people. I will be sad to not see them almost everyday but life must go on. Love You YFC!

The Beach!

Hello Everyone!
Sorry I haven't posted for a while. I have been wanting to post pictures of the weekend I spent with my mom and my sister Dana but I wasn't quite sure how to post pictures. I will try to post more frequently from now on. Hope you like the pictures!

The Welcome Sign
That whole weekend me and my mom
spent together was mostly spent at the beach
or walking on the boardwalk. The beach was usually
very crowded but we didn't mind very much.
We mainly just relaxed and did nothing. (We did go
see the movie Up in theaters. I loved it! I suggest
that everyone should see it!) On the last day
though,
we both went to visit Kidz Creations were my sister
Dana works and was also able to do a
craft there
and had a most splendid time.
Before Picture: Me holding my picture frame.
Me and Dana
Me displaying the ribbon I would be using
for a hanger on my frame.
My showing Dana where to write the
letters on my frame.
(Which she did a lovely job at)
After Picture: Mom and I with my finished
picture frame which I will be putting a picture
of me and her in so I will always remember
that weekend we spent together.
Mom and Dana singing
Me and Dana Breaking Free

While we were waiting for my frame to dry
Mom and I went out to lunch.

After lunch we picked up my picture frame packed up and headed home!

Thank you mom and Dana for making this one of the best weekends I have ever had! Also, hello to everyone at The Ark! (the building we stayed in) I hope that everyone is enjoying themselves and that your turtle you found is well and happy!

Love You All!

Jen

p.s. I LOVE NANCY DREW!!!!!!
