SCHOOL'S OUT!!

Yesterday, Friday July 18 we finished the summer semester. Finals are over. Papers are turned in. We are both so relieved (it was very stressful towards the end of everything).
Ben might have found a new job for the fall semester and Brea won her Program Planning thing.
We are both so excited for the break. [We have 7 weeks off of school (between semesters) and we are going to family reunions and then to Colorado to work for a while. We will keep you updated!!]

One semester to go....

BODY MOVIN'

I was in an Improve and Choreography class this semester. For our final we each had to choreograph our own dance and have it preformed (we were not supposed to be in our own dance). I choreographed a dance to the Beastie Boys song, Body Movin’. I had some people who had never danced before in my group and it was hard at times but very worth it. The dance turned out perfect and everything (and everyone) looked great.

I was in 4 other dances that people in my class choreographed. It was hard because I had to learn how to dance contemporary, modern and ballet. I worked so hard and I really enjoyed it. I was even in a cha cha and Ben agreed to be my partner- he did wonderfully. (He has very good latin hips…) Toward the end we were practicing 3-4 hours a night and my body was sore. The performance (Wednesday July 16) went well. It seemed like such a short night for all the work that we put into it. It was so wonderful to be dancing again. I really enjoyed it.

*And Mom, Anne, Grandma Baker, Jesse (cousin) and David (cousin) came up from Utah to see the performance. It was so wonderful to see them and to have their support.

*Movies will come-once I figure out how to do it!!!

Health Promotion Program

Breanne was in a Program Planning class this last semester. In this class they were put into groups and had to plan a health program that would be implemented on the BYU-Idaho campus. Breanne and her group worked so hard and made a great program. They wrote a huge report and nailed their 15 minute presentation (they did very good). At the end of the semester only one program (from the 5 in the class) was chosen to be implemented on the campus. Breanne and her group’s program WON and their program was picked. They are so happy (they can now put this on their resumes) and they can see the fruits of all their hard work!!

Canoeing with Friends

We went to Rigby Lake with some friends to go canoeing. We rented two canoes and spent the day on the lake. We had hot dogs and smores and a lot of fun. The boys probably spent an hour and a half longer then the girls on the lake trying to sink the canoe like they did on Pirates of the Caribbean. It was a really fun day.
(And we didn’t get sun burnt to bad because we used a LOT of sunscreen.)
