Okay, so Danny made me audition to sing the national anthem for "Mormon Night" at Dodger Stadium and I didn't want to do it. But like I said, he made me do it. :o) I had to send in two recorded songs of myself singing: the national anthem and a song of my choice. I had to fill out an application along with the bishop's approval. I had to send it in by June 15th. I then I waited.
Recently I got a letter back saying that out of over 500 applicants from around the US and Canada, I was being selected as one of 80 semi-finalists to audition live in front of a panel of judges on July 18th. Now I am terrified! I hate auditioning! People have asked me, "Well, isn't it just the same as singing in church?" NO! It's totally different! When I sing in church I don't have people critiquing my performance to my face. So since the live auditions are actually at an LDS chapel near the LA Temple, I'm just going to pretend that I'm just singing in church. Now I just have to convince my nerves. :o)

Wow. Your husband sounds pretty cool. You must be pretty lucky to have him. You should totally iron all his work shirts just to let him know how awesome he is.

Yay! I love when you sing! You should bring Isaac to the audition to charm them... you'd have it in the bag!

I think it's so exciting! I will have two kids performing on the same day, you in LA, and McKay in Springfield! You will do great! Now that you have figured out the recording studio thing, you know what would be a great Christmas gift....someday! We'll be praying for your nerves that day. Love you! BTW, that anonymous post sounds a lot like a guy named Danny, but it couldn't be because I hear he likes to iron not only his work shirts, but that he does all the family laundry, cooking, and cleaning! What a guy!
