During January we went to go see Monster Jam and we also went to the Tower of Americas with Carol.  It was loud.  It was fun.  But we left before we got to see the green Grave Digger.  Before Monster Jam we played around the Tower of Americas and we had a lot of fun.

And then recently we had Solo and Ensemble and I got a 1+.  And only four people got a 1+.  Two cellos, two violins, and I was one of the cellos.  In both History and Science Fair, if I had been one place higher I would have gone onto Regionals.  But since I got 3rd place in History Fair and 2nd place in Science Fair, I wasn't able to go onto Regionals.  

We also went to Gilbert, Arizona to see the new temple open house.  We got to go into the Celestial room, the Sealing room,  and the baptismal room.  And they made us wear little white things over our shoes and I got to keep mine.  And we also got to see the Mesa Temple.  We also hiked to the hole in the rock.  

Two nights ago I also went on a camp-out and I forgot to bring my sleeping bag.  And it was 26 degrees outside so you can imagine how I was.  But, otherwise the camp-out was fun.  We had a huge bonfire and we talked.  But, the only really downside to it was the cold and all of the cow pies.  

Also, last night I got a night vision scope and I'm going to use it at an upcoming mutual activity which is capture the flag.  So, I think it's going to be a lot of fun.
