Star Wars

As some of you may know, us Tifft girls are currently interested in (read: obsessed with) Star Wars. How we didn't discover it earlier is beyond me. Anyways, I feel that Star Wars is more than just an entertaining movie. It also teaches us. Some of the morals: Things aren't always as they seem, Good always triumphs over evil, and you should always listen to the wise old dude- even if you're a teenager who thinks they know everything. Trust me, you don't. The old guy does. Always.

As for things to be obsessed with, this is not one of the bad ones. Also, having all of us obsessed with the same thing= sister bonding time. YAY! We girls have so much fun with our lightsabers- I don't believe for a second anyone that says Star Wars is a boy thing. It's for anyone who wants to like it.

Thanksgiving!

Ah, Thanksgiving. The time of year when we count our blessings, gather with family, and gorge ourselves full of delicious food. What a beautiful time of year.

So, since this is a time for giving thanks, lets make a list of all that we're grateful for:

Family
The Atonement
Friends
Church
Our Homes
Education
Our Church Leaders
Music
Birthdays
Thanksgiving Dinner :)

That's far from a comprehensive list, but, hey, it's a start.

What are you thankful for?

Love you all,
Kristen

The Sound of Music

Musical Theater: Something so prevalent in our home, you can't go a day without hearing about it.

As mentioned in the last post, Lauren, Brigitta, and I are all in the Sound of Music, an amazing play that we all absolutely loooove. So, if you want to buy tickets (of course you do!), contact Mom (Laurie) and she will get you some. The performance dates are October 22, 23, 25, 28, 29, and 30. The shows are at 7:30, BUT there are two matinées on the 23 and 30th, should you wish to attend at 2pm instead. The tickets are $15 for adults and $12 for Students and Seniors. If you come the 25th, you only pay $10! I think it would be a great family home evening activity, so you should come. ;)

Love ya all,
Kristen

Hey Everybody!

Hello Everybody!
Sorry I haven't been doing well on keeping the blog updated. BUT I have decided to work harder on doing that. :)
Right now, Lauren, Brigitta and myself are all in The Sound of Music. I'm a nun, Lauren is in the ensemble, and Brigitta is doing Shooting Stars.

All of us girls,except Maria, started school just over a month ago. School has been pretty good to all of us so far. I started my Sophomore year of High School, and it has been going wonderfully. My favorite classes so far are Seminary (no duh) and Chamber Choir. We actually have a baritone section this year! 0_0

ANYWAYS, life is pretty good so far. I'm reading the Doctrine and Covenants (since we're studying it in Seminary), and the Book of Mormon, as always :).

Luv ya all!

Ok.... Catch Up Time!

Hmmmm... The Pictures I promised aren't working.... :( Oh Well.

Happy Thanksgiving everybody! We had a LOT of food.

On Wednesday, I (kristen) had a pancake lunch for seminary.... it was fun, especially because i had some chocolate chip pancakes.

I finally figured out how to get music onto my phone... Hallelujuia! Three Cheers for David Archuleta!!!

Good Luck to all you Black Friday Shoppers... i'm not going to brave the crowds to get anything. I'll just go on saturday.

I finally finished the book of mormon... Yay!!!! Where in it are you?

Awsome Music

In case you haven't noticed the two... music thingys on the sidebar (Adam Kump and Sam Fleming), you should listen to them. Sam's is Piano Music, and Adam's is Indie. They're both really good, and both in my stake.
Another (real) update coming soon!!!!

Luv Ya All,
Kristen

Hey everbody!!!!!

WOW- Already 7 1/2 weeks into school!!!! Time sure does fly!


Lauren, Brigitta, and I are all in a play right now- Jospeh and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat (yes, it is a loooooong name). L and B are in the Childrens chorus, and I'm in the main cast- female ensemble. Opening Night is Friday, October 2, and the last show is October 10. Hope you can come see it!!


So far this week, Kristen, Lauren, Brigitta, Maria, and Mom have all been sick. Hopefully, we'll all be better by tomorrow!!!
