Choir Tour

It was so fun to go with Amberly on her Choir Tour last week. We left the high school at about 9:00pm and drove all night until we got to a Denny's for breakfast. We used the buses as changing rooms and cleaned up as best we could and then headed to Disneyland.

Looking fresh and cute at the start of the trip.

We stayed at Disney until about 4:30 and then headed to the hotel to check in. After a quick clean up we headed to a great place called Medival Times. The kids had a great time cheering for the Blue Knight as we ate on pewter plates with our fingers. It was a fun coincidence that we were given blue crowns to cheer for the Blue Knight and we're Viking Blue.

Thursday we headed back to Disneyland to perform at the Carnation Plaza next to the castle. The kids did a great job.

Saturday Night we stayed late for the fireworks and light show. It is an amazing production. Go Disney.

I had a great time reconnecting with my old friend Bonnie Peterson and making new friends: Marsha Johnson, Joanna Norton and Noreen Bean. These ladies made Disneyland fun in a whole new way.

After an amazing 5 days the bus ride home was a bit quieter than it had been most of the trip. These are amazingly talented, smart and beautiful teenagers that I really enjoyed getting to know. They were great representatives of Pleasant Grove and our whole community should be very proud of how they represented us. They received Superior ratings for all 3 performing groups and each of our groups took first in their competitions. We also won the overall trophy for the whole festival. Heather Reichert received a medal for the accompanists and Merry Carson received the medal for best solo. What a great trip. I'm glad I got to share it with Amberly before she leaves our family nest for collage.
