guess what?!

My wonderfully fabulous Aunt Terri read my last post and (because she is a shameless spoiler of her nieces and nephews) promptly searched for the dresses I loved so much. Unfortunately some of them were out of stock while others were only available in the wrong sizes. SO, she sent me a gift card to modcloth! aaaaah! Needless to say, I wasted no time finding two new, ridiculously cute, dresses!

Ta da!

"Row Your Bow-t"


"Don't Call it a Comeback"


THANK YOU, AUNT TERR! You really shouldn't spoil me so... I'll turn into a rotten brat! haha
Love you lots. xoxoxo - Jellybean

gotta sing, gotta act!

So, as some of you may know, I'm going to be running musical theatre summer day camps for kids in August. I did a similar sort of class through parks and rec for a couple of years and figured "why not do what I love, make some money and teach kids how to be confident in their talents?"
And so, it's happening! As soon as the website is good to go (Tomorrow, I believe) I will be printing out flyers and distributing them at rec. centers and churches across Abbotsford.

All this to say, I'm excited! Because I'm still healing, this "self-employment" allows for me to not only create my own cirriculum and manage my own schedule, but also to do a couple of courses without "over-doing it", leading to another health-digression.

To add some visual interest, here are a couple of photos I had sent to Jon Campbell (who is creating my website for me!) as possibilities for my "instructor" page...
