D'Velles and Vibe!

Rick Robinson and his dance company Vibe have invited the D'Velles to perform at their annual show, "Evolutions of Dance." This show is incredible, and I can't wait for it! We perform in Lindon on Friday at Vibe's Studio Theater, and again (I think on the 28th) at the new Covey Center for the Performing Arts. It's shaping up to be an amazing show that combines Ballroom, Jazz, and Hip Hop. If any of you are dance fanatics like I am, and are interested in tickets, keep checking my blog. I'll post more info as it becomes available:)

Love Songs:)

I found this great website on a friend's blog. It's called myflashfetish.com. It's a site where you can get a pseudo ipod for your blog. I've put a few songs that I love. I probably should get some "love songs" on there since Valentine's is coming up. Right now, I'm sure at least half of them are break-up songs.:) Oh well! "I'm rubber, you're glue" is a song by Chelsea Williams. We saw her perform at Universal City Walk in California, so totally check out that song. I'm a little addicted to it. Don't freak out though, and click on the ipod a million times. It takes a second for the songs to load and then it plays. Enjoy!
p.s. I don't know if I passed finals, but I survived them. I got the state certification for my computer class by 1.4%! I'm pretty sure though that my lowest grade came out to be an A-. It's a miracle! Hope you guys are all doing so good.

What a Month!


Wow! It's sad to think that the only time I have to blog is right before end-of-term! Ha! You're right! I don't have time. What I should be doing is studying, but I've been marathon studying for like the last 36 hours, minus church. It's been a wild last month, and I wanted to update you guys. December has been filled with many things to be grateful for. This last month a new cousin was added to our family, Gavin Thomas Dixon. (Check out Shannon's blog to see the adorable pictures.) Christmas was so fun. It was two straight weeks of sleeping in, eating junk, and hanging out with friends and family. And then (duh-duh-duh!) reality hit and school started again. For the life of me, I can't figure out why we couldn't just finish up finals BEFORE we left for Christmas. I take 3 out of 5 of them tomorrow, and I'm only honestly ready for like 1 and a half of them. D'Velles are participating in an invitational this weekend, so it's "big time, crunch time" as Mrs. A would say. Life's unbearably busy, but there's so much to be grateful for. This picture is of Ryan after nursery today. He had a cute little hat that said, "I am a child of God." When I get more time, I'll fill you in about the rest of everything.:)~meg:)

Guess what? It's 2:30 AM

So....hi! This is Lauren and Megan! In the middle of our AMAZING sleepover. And due to our sugar induced energy we are still awake. Please blog me guys, because I want to know how your Christmas was. Santa brought me a nano, and unfortunately I wasn't able to use it Christmas day, because I wasn't smart enough to figure it out on my own. (Thank you Scott for helping me!) Sorry this was short, and I'm sure I'll regret any weird stuff I wrote on this in about 6 hours.:)

What a Month!

It's been a pretty crazy month. In fact, it's been so crazy that I really haven't had that much time to talk about it. On Dec. 1st, the D'Velles competed at the Utah Classic. We placed in every category, and it was good to finally start to get a feel for what drill competitions are really like. Basketball and wrestling started up as well so this means that I am either performing or attending a match or a game with the team at least once or twice a week. School has been crazy, and sometimes I feel like I'm barely scraping by, but I still love it! The Christmas dance was last Saturday, and I had so much fun. A big thanks to Ben for taking me!:) and another big thanks to Shannon for lending me a beautiful dress. I'm going to try to post pictures so that you can see it. I've been sick this past week, but I've kind of had no choice but to suck it up. D'Velles will be performing in Rick Robinson's Evolutions of Dance at the end of January. This has meant 3 amazing guest choreographers and a huge exercise in memory this last week. Our routine honors the 60's with a combination of jazz, ballroom, and hip hop to 2 of James Brown's most famous songs. I hope that this Christmas Season is filled with joy for you and your loved ones. I think that Christmas makes me miss everything a little more. I miss all of you who have moved away, all of our good memories together, and it makes me look forward to more! Merry Christmas, and I hope to talk to all of you soon.
