Whitney's Big Week at YASE

Since Whit is starting high school this year, she was old enough to participate in Young Ambassador's Singing Entertainer's Workshop at BYU. YA is a singing and dancing group. It is a perfect combo for Whit and she was SO excited to go. It was hard to be away from her for a whole week. And she was really bad at calling or texting us, so we had no idea how it was going, but she was just too busy having fun and she loved every minute.

I stalked YASE's social media and grabbed a few

screen shots when I could find her.

Devotional with Brad Wilcox

Voice rehearsal

Dance practice

(Or yoga?)

At the end of the week,

friends and family are invited for a performance.

It was a beautiful evening.

Whit was in the Blue Group.

The evening included big group performance,

smaller ensembles, and solos.

It was FANTASTIC.

Can you see her in the back in the red shirt?

Nice jump!

Such a good performer!

I love watching this girl on stage!

Finale number.

Gigi and Grandpa made it out for the first performance.

And Grandpa and Grandma S came out 

for the second performance.

Whit's biggest fans!

I'm so happy that Whit got to have this experience. It is the best of both worlds for her--combining her love of singing with her talent and experience in dance. She's already counting down the days until she can come again next summer!
