My Surprise!!!

Hello Everyone,

Yesterday while Syd and I were preparing to play at the competition (video posted on the post before this) Dad told me he had a big surprise if I got up there and didn't look nervous - even though I was EXTREMELY nervous! Well, that was motivation. After we played he didn't say anything, so I assumed that I didn't do well enough and wouldn't get the surprise. No one said anything until lunch today, Dad looked at me and said, "You and I are going somewhere tonight, make sure you bring your camera." As you can imagine, I got really excited!

He took me to a Lipizzaner Stallion Show! (They are on their World Tour). It was AMAZING! I watched every detail and figured out some of the ways they got their horses to do certain things. Since I can't explain how cool it was, here are some pictures.

I hope you enjoy them!

Cool, isn't it?

If you haven't already, check out my last post. Do you think I looked nervous?

Video!

Hello Everyone,

Here is the video of Sydney and I! I hope you like it. (Please overlook my horrible note in the beginning!) Also, sorry about the sound, it messed up because of the people clapping. (For those who don't know us, I am on the left (the shorter one) and my sister is the right.)
Enjoy, =)

P.S. I will post Sarah and Sydney soon. (They were awesome.)

Talent Show!!

Hey Everyone,

Syd and I played at a Homeschool Talent Show Competition and we got first place in our age group! I am sooo happy! We made a few mistakes...like my beginning solo part I played the worst note ever! And our notes clashed a few times, but other than that, it was good. =)

Sarah won the Grand Prize! Congratulations Sarah!!

I will post a video when we have time. Sarah, will it be alright if I post you and Litlle Sydney playing?

Enjoy,

Stephanie

Pictures & Award

Hello Everyone, Yes I am still alive! (If you saw Marissa's comment on my sister's last post you will know why I said that.) I am so sorry that I haven't posted in a LONG time...we had a pretty crazy week, so I didn't get on much.

Anyway, Marissa emailed me these pictures, I think we were 11 when they were taken. Enjoy! =)

Hey,
Do any of you know how to convert a video to an AVI or MPEG format? It won't let me upload my video unless it is one of those and I don't know how to fix it. HELP!

Video Coming Soon

Hey Ya'll,
We went over to Uncle Jess's house and had a TON of fun! =)
I took over my video camera so we got videos of us playing the Wii! (It is hilarious!) We also video-taped Emily and Sydney (the younger one) doing some "commercials". I am putting a video together of all the acts combined with music in the background, and will post it soon.
Sarah will be posting some pictures of it on her blog. (I think)
