Week 4/5 Update!

Hey Everyone! I have been so busy these last 2 weeks I havent gotten around to posting. But anywho...
Staging is finished and I am now on the road. Our first show was fantastic, sold out both nights! It was so great to see everyone enjoying the show. My grandma flew out to see me, and we celebrated my birthday with her, my mom, sister and host family. The next day we bussed up to Fort Collins, but not before a stop at the Celestial Seasonings Tea Factory for a tour. It was really fun to do this tour again, and even more fun to watch everyone else in the Mint Room :-)
Currently I am up in Ft. Collins staying with an older couple who are both teachers who taught overseas for almost 30 years! This week started with community service at H.E.L.P International, a group that sends donated clothes toys and technology to places recovering from disasters. I spent the day packing boxes and sorting power cables. At the end of the day we had a wheelchair race around the warehouse, which thankfully didn't end in a crash. Wednesday was my birthday, which was celebrated with a dinner with my dad and cake with my host family. The cast gave me lots of hugs, probably more in one day than I have ever gotten. Today we are running through our show before performing to an almost sold out house. I'm so excited to finally be out on the road and getting to see the world. Next week we are in Farmington, New Mexico. More updates next week! Until then, stay cool yo.
