THROWBACK: HALLOWEEN SPECIAL

Hello Ghouls and boys. See what I did there? Anyways, its Halloween and since it's throwback week, I'd thought about posting some pics from the past. Yep, pretty self explanatory. Don't take candy from strangers and be safe my pretties. Did you see what I did that time? Oh geez, I am not explaining.

THROWBACK: THE WIZ

When I was in the musical: The Wiz, I met some valuable friends. We all made funny nicknames for each other. Mine was Chub-a-dub. They were such great friends and I was so grateful to have their friendship. Also, tonight at a stake Halloween party, I saw the girl that played Glinda. Good times. So, yeah. I miss them.
Thanks for checking throwback week.

THROWBACK: S.C BUDS

                                                          This is divided in three parts.
                                                             (In order of appearance)
Dallin: I've known Dallin since I was in pre-school. We were in the same primary class for almost all of my childhood. His family always does the coolest and craziest Christmas cards every year. Anyway, this boy taught me how to skateboard. Oh those summer days. Now, even during the summer I am working on homework and stuff- geez. My littlest brother was basically glued to him. We were neighbors and all of the neighborhood loved playing with him. I miss Dallin!

Alexa: (The one with her hand in the air) I've known her since I was in 3rd grade. Those days when we would break the law and drive in her trunk to the donut shop, early morning skate park, pool parties, countless lemonade stands, talent shows, and all of that jazz. Her birthdays were always the biggest blow-outs. If I didn't have her in my life, I'd be lost and I can't imagine it without her. See ya soon, Alexa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
P.S: She's 69 years old, dumbo!

Kelsey: Oh man. Here's how we met: A couple doors down from me, there was a moving truck. My two best friends were moving and I was crushed. That day, I stayed in my room. At church, after primary, a mom comes up to me. She asked if I lived on the street I lived on. I said yes and she introduced me to Kesley. Kelsey's sister is now at BYU Idaho. ( BYU!) We have been to Angel's games together, Farrells on opening night (funny story), trick-or-treating every year,  yeah. Many more. I miss ya and see you soon!


Thanks for checking in! Maybe you will be next.

THROWBACK WEEK: CUPCAKES!

If it wasn't for these 2 woman, I wouldn't be obsessed with making cupcakes. And if it wasn't for the show JON AND KATE PLUS 8, I wouldn't have found this show. Darn reality T.V. This show is called DC CUPCAKES. I felt inspired to write about them because me and Ember, who was posted yesterday, are completely obsessed!!!!!!!! Baking also is what got me through many of my moves. :( I have almost matching aprons and almost all of their cook books. So, keep checking in this week...maybe you will be the next star of throwback week. Thanks-abby

Throwback: EMBER

So, hi. I have been looking through photos for 6 hours trying to find these three people. Got two, just not the other. Check back in tomorrow for them. Anyhow,  Ember is my topic today. She is my cousin (See the resemblance?) She has been my friend since day one of my life. I talk to her constantly and I enjoy making funny fashion videos with her. I am so lucky to have her as a cousin. She also has 2 brothers-same ages as mine. Sure, things get crazy, but that's what makes our families connect. She is a fantastic violinist and she got me playing in the 4th grade. I am not as good as her. (not even close) She is also the one that got me into Mindy Gledhill. (If I talk about her too much, blame ember.) So, just to close, Ember, you are great and I feel so lucky to have you in throwback week. See ya in Sacramento!-Abby

WELCOME TO THROWBACK WEEK

I am sitting at the computer. No duh.  This week is "throwback week." I name some people or memories that are in the past. I miss this girl-badly.  On my 5th move (I am on my 6th move) I met this girl. She appeared on my door step with her brothers and that's where our story began. We were in my room right? I discovered that she had a love for musicals too and that we were both going to be in the WIZ. I walked home everyday in the sixth grade and in her room we made a little musical called: Poppy and Penny Pan. We were Peter Pan and Wendy's daughters. We made it exactly 3 years ago today. I think. Anyways, she moved away during the summer. :( I miss her everyday. Some of my favorite memories with her include: Our first sleepover when we made the "magical sleepover", Disneyland for our birthdays, countless hours drafting and re-drafting our countless musicals,  photo shoot, "Searching for Sunshine", "Hunting for each other, Fashion Fairytale, dancing around like weirdos to Wicked songs, her giving my flowers at 9:00pm for losing school President, supporting me through the move, pool parties all the time, and my personal favorite, the time we had to go back to my house to grab my swimsuit and we went to the garage and no one was home. Then my mom opened the garage. It was funny. Not the way I made it sound. I miss you!!!! Poppy and Penny Pan 3 year anniversary will not be the same without you.

KEDS

I adore these shoes! Eek! They cost so much but are so cute. My brother is dressed as a ninja and keeps on grunting at me. I thought Ninjas were suppose to be silent. Anyways, back to keds, Taylor Swift even designed some check them out online. Whoo! Go shoes. My other brother is dressed in a sport coat and a batman cape. Eesh. Wish me luck!
P.S: I am being Mindy Gledhill
P.P.S: I wish my name was Mindy. I love that name!

The pretty picture

RAGTIME

So, after violin lessons, I got the chance to see a musical called:RAGTIME. It's by the same people that made ONCE ON THIS ISLAND. It was truly amazing. The best part was the mother finding the baby in the ground. Just like Cabbage Patch Kids.(Go onto mti broadway  and you can hear a clip of each song and read the summary) It was at the community college here in my town. It was honestly in the top 5 musicals of mine!!! Look it up. You will be dazzled. So, I must "ragtime" into bed. Does that make sense?
-Abby

RUBY AND HANNAH

Eating graham crackers next to my best bud RUBY!! She is adorable. So she's younger than me. SO?  Yeah.  My brother is quizzing her on her math facts. I think she is annoyed. Ruby and I take from the same violin teacher. Ruby plays it well. Ruby also has the cutest outfits. I mean-cowboy boots, Chevron stripe dresses-so in style!
Guess what? My best friend from my 5th move is coming! EEK! We've been through so much. She has almost moved as many times as I have. If you need to talk about Broadway or musicals, Hannah's my guy.
So, fashion week, am I right?
I am going to cancel it. I sorry.

BLUE, ORANGE, PURPLE, AND GREEN PENS

As my mind wanders on my day, I noticed that I had a bland day. Ugh. But, I stare at my finished math homework and say, "Wow, those  pens  totally made my day brighter. On that note, everybody has a way of keeping their day happy. Doesn't matter if its your only pair of designer jeans or just a penny you found as you were running in P.E. And you got the best time in the history of the world.  So, have happy, colored pens in your day.

100 years

So, I have made 50 posts so far...WHOO! Anyway, 100. Big number. Why 100 is important:

100 pennies make a dollar
100 years make a century
100 dollars can get the top I want from Kate Spade (it's not going to happen)
100 posts on pocketful of posts will be amazing
100 is my 2nd favorite number
but most important...
100 YEARS OF SCOUTING!
Whoo.
