My first "blog" - where does that word come from anyway? Anyhow Daren and I just got back from a fun-filled weekend in PA. It was busy but awesome. We were down there to basically say goodbye to his parents and younger brother because in less than a week they are moving to Nebraska. Yuck. Tornadoes and corn - that's all they got down there. Daren's uncle Allen and his family (wife Julie and two daughters) were also there for the weekend. They are super fun people. We had a blast laughing and joking the whole weekend. We also go to spend time with Levi (my brother-in-law) and his wife and kids whom we love! Ben and Mikhaila are growing SO fast I hate it! Anyway we are going to miss the family so I spent most of yesterday morning crying... a lot... oh well we all must move on right?
So when we got home yesterday I had my first paycheck sitting on the counter from my movie debut! I got $136 for a 20 hour day. How unimpressive ;o) Haha. It's amazing that you can work so hard and make so little. Oh well it's better than nothing right? And I really did enjoy the work. For those of you who don't know I recently filmed a scene for "Ghost of Girlfriends Past" with Jennifer Garner and Matthew McConaughey. I played one of Jennifer Garners bridesmaids. There were 4 of us bridesmaids and we all got along great and are now good friends. I absolutely loved filming and I'm hoping to continue with this career.
Daren and I are heading to LA May 14th. I will be attending the AIM Actors Convention. They accept 33 actors a year to go to this conferance. I'll be meet with top agents out there and with some blessings I will hopefully be able to sign on with an agent out there and live bi-coastly. I'm really excited to go but terrified to fly. We're leaving for Las Vegas May 1st and I've been having panic attacks thinking about flying. But I have to remind myself that thousands of people fly everyday.
I guess that's all for now. God Bless and get out there and enjoy the weather today on Earth Day! Plant a tree or something ;o)
