Seasons in Ohio

So we had some funny winter pictures I never added. In February, we had a day when everyone got snowed in.

So we got together with our great friend and next door neighbor, Aimee, to go tromping out in the snow.

I wore Cam's gigantic boots,

Cam got his game face on,

and Aimee doesn't take crap from anyone.

We played, we saw, we conquered.

It was a good day. :)

So, my blog is definitely a learning experience. Today we're adding pictures. :)

Below is a dish from Rachel Ray's cookbook of which I was extremely proud. It's made with portabella mushroom caps and yummy chili doused all over an English muffin. Thank you to whoever gave us that cookbook for our wedding!

No Sound Bytes

Unfortunately, blogger doesn't accept MP3 files! I may be shopping around for a new blogging service, unless anyone has figured out how to upload MP3s onto this one. :)

Blogging and Singing

Blogging is so much better than Facebook! I agree with my friend, Allison Harwood. Thanks Alli! So today after I taught my voice students, I decided to stay at the studio (I was the only one there) and do some singing of my own. I recorded some clips for you all. I hope you enjoy. But beware--my MP3 player can't handle the high notes very well. So there are some brief moments of intense static. But I minimized those moments, so it will still be worth it to listen to the songs.

On the subject of singing, Cam has just found out that he was not awarded any of the grants he applied for. Which means we won't be going to Spain this summer. We feel all right about it. In fact, I am now excited to find a show to audition for and hopefully be in. I'm still developing my musical theater voice, and loving it (you'll see that on the recordings). My singing has improved SO much since I took lessons from Gayle Lockwood my last year at BYU. Musical theater training will do wonders for a voice that is incorrigibly dark and stuffy sounding--like the annoying opera voice we all hate.

Love, Care Bear

p.s. I'll add the sound clips later when I figure out how!
update: it looks like blogger doesn't support MP3 files. let's see what I can finagle.
