Talented Are We!


While the gang was down in St. George, enjoying the hot summer sun and brief weekend vacation (you can read all about it on Manda's blog), we, the remaining two, enjoyed some time with the talented people of the complex.  Our singles ward hosted a talent show and Panda and me (Mellie) combined our musical powers of wonder and stunned the audience with a piece from the Disney Pixar movie Brave.  We dressed up to the occasion as we saw appropriate, which only added to the atmosphere of the performance.  It was quite a successful night.
We were not the only gifted people that attended, fortunately, or the show would have been seriously lacking.  We heard many songs, instruments, and jokes that made the night most highly entertaining.  A young man from Iran played a Sitar for us, another did voice impressions, and there were a couple talented poets who recited their work for our pleasure.  At the end there was a skit of comedy which had everyone nearly out of their chairs, laughing their hardest while still living.
And that is why we say that though we missed hanging with our buddies, we do love our home very much and enjoyed our weekend just as well, I'd say.

until our next adventure, then, goodnight!
