All About Merinda

 Merinda has had an eventful year so far...

Merinda, and her friend Nikara, made it Regionals and then State with their Brigham Young National History Day project.


 While helping Merinda paint her board (outside in the snow) 

we just had to giggle at how silly our outfits looked.  

 RSMS Academic Team also came in first out of their district.

 Reunited with her sister's again!

Taking pictures with Breck on SCHC Prom night.

Getting spoiled by Grandma Heelis,

 and enjoying Indian food with Grandma Virginia and Grandpa Manwaring.

 Participating in her own piano recital


for the first time, 

and receiving the "Honesty Award".


 Playing the part of a documentary actress 

in the middle schools spring play called "The Pitch"

and having a great time

with all of her friends in the play!

 Watching the high school spring musical "Hairspray"

with her dad, 

grandparents,

and all her sisters (Breck played Edna)!

Performing for the parents

in the eighth grade spring band concert,

 and watching the SCHS Choirs' Ice Cream Concert
