Camping

On the solstice(June21st) my family went up to Silver Lake in the RV and camped. My sister brought her friend Hope, so they were annoying and hyper the whole trip. I took a bunch of pictures, since I was so bored, here they are:

Ella and Hope keeping themselves entertained on the drive, we sat in traffic for a half hour

Our campsite

My dad starting up the gas stove, snazzy sunglasses, eh?

Ella and her friend gettin' their groove on

The bridge at the lake

My dog, she usually looks crazier than this when she's in the water.
She usually digs for rocks by the shore. Not kidding.

Mmmm, some bread off the side of the bridge

Mmmm, marshmallows. I didn't have any, I had lemon pie instead.

No marshmallows for Riley!

I got really bored so I started to discover all the weird things my camera can do. . .

Having fun with shutter speed settings

This one is really dark but it's supposed to be the stars.

Tadpoles in the lake.

This is a picture of the bruise on my knee, I got it before camping.

This sign I found online but it will forever bother me.

Summer is here!!

School is out! I know summer isn't officially here yet, but it's sunny and warm and there's no more school and that's good enough for me. I've been so excited for summer for so long, and now that it's here I didn't know what to do. So, I grabbed my camera and went outside for a few minutes. Here's the results of my boredom:

These ones (above and below) have nice focus. I'm happy I know how

to control a camera now, even if I did hate that class. . .

Looking at the gray Bellingham sky ruins the illusion of summer, doesn't it?

And this next one is just a drawing I made when I was bored a week ago:

Annie is over. . .



Chillin' in the wings

 After many long months of rehearsals, Annie is over *sniff*. We had a lot of fun, but to be completely honest, I was soooo sick of all the songs stuck in my head, I'm kind of glad I don't have to sing them anymore. Anniepalooza was on Saturday, where all of the casts(from the 4 year olds up to 16 year olds) perform the musical numbers at Mt. Baker Theater. It was Natalie's birthday and she had to be there, but REALLY didn't want to. . .

And Emily went to The Great Wolf Lodge instead of coming. The rehearsal was crazy, no one really had any idea what to do, and for dinner there were so many people we sat in the hallway backstage, it was so cramped no one could walk through it. Afterwards was the cast party with yummy food, I'm hungry right now so I'm thinking about food, and cast parties are always fun. Here's pics from Anniepalooza and the ones Emily took after the last performance at BAAY when we were cleaning. The ones I took at Mt. Baker Theater are really bad, sorry, I couldn't use the flash cuz rehearsal was going on and I didn't want to 'disrupt the actor's concentration'

Wow this one is really blurry, whoops. . .

Um, yeah, this is the ceiling of the stage, idk why I took a picture of it. . .

Me, Natalie, Aeyre and Kenzi

Gotta clean before the cast party!

Natalie!!

Kenzi and Emily :)

Natalie being Natalie. . .

Just chillin' (instead of cleaning, shhhh!)

Dorky me and Emily

Oh Kenzi. . .                                                        Ari /\
