You forget many things in life. But you never forget kindness. Be Brave. Choose Kind.

A deeply moving coming-of-age story and testament to the courage it takes to extend kindness and love during the harshest of times, this movie is the right story at the right time:

My Snapshots
What have we been up to in the past couple months? Take a look and see:
We've always said we'd invest one year of our lives in this place...this is the year!
Gv was nominated for Best Ensemble Actress for her performance in A Christmas Carol. Although she didn't win, it was a fancy, fun night for us all!
I had to miss this year's 4-H Awards banquet to be at work, but Gv picked up my award for me along with the couple she received.
Labor Day weekend with the best of friends
We finally decided on this version of the popular card game and have been playing it since we found it on sale.
Back to sewing at the library
We're getting our $$s worth out of these passes!
Enjoying music and flamenco dancing at a local Hispanic Heritage festival
And that wraps up August & September! I wonder what next month has in store for us...

Lassen Volcanic
Lava Beds
Redwoods
Crater Lake
Multnomah Falls

Seattle
North Cascades
Vancouver
Jasper National Park
Columbia Icefields National Park
Winnipeg

I wasn't initially drawn to review this movie, but after I watched the trailer and recognized the narrator's voice (from this hit show), I changed my mind:

My Snapshots
What have we been up to in the past month? Take a look and see:
I don't even know if I'm coming or going anymore, but this is the first chance I've had since March to catch my breath!
Ferrying Gv to rehearsals for two different shows proved to be utterly exhausting for all of us, but we managed to make some amazing memories through it all...
New dog, same desire to dress him up...
Have you seen some of the over-the-top Pinterest parties out there? Gv got invited to one and had a blast -- this was Paris-themed and they had personal tents and pjs and slippers and berets and sleep masks and more!
Her fabulous Oliver director did so much to turn the cast into a family -- this is her getup for Wacky Wednesday, where they raided the theater's costumes to create their outfits for the night!
I knew I'd be proud of her performance as the lead from this show, but I was still completely blown away!
What tech week truly looks like. Rehearsals until 12:30am are no joke!
Her first time on a pony! We managed to survive birthday month in the middle of all those performances! Five celebrations to fit into it all! (Was everyone born in May, or just all the friends we know?!)
Memorial Day with friends -- and rainbows, so you know I was loving that!
Gv's been creating things out of wood for a couple years now, but G and I joined her for the first time and turned pens on the lathe!
And that wraps up April & May! I wonder what next month has in store for us...
