missouri.

so, i've been back in california for just a couple of days since my week-long trip to missouri. and, may i say, the trip was just wonderful! it was bittersweet having to say goodbye to my best friends from home, but it was worth the trip, and i'm excited to hit the ground running back on the west coast.

my week was spent in kansas city, columbia, and cape girardeau missouri. i did lots of traveling, saw several friends, and made sure to eat at a bunch of my favorite restaurants, of course!! i was also blessed to attend two graduations--one for one of my best friends, andrew guthrie, who graduated from mizzou. the other was my best friend's little sister, lindsey, who graduated from central high school. congrats to both of you, i'm very proud of your accomplishments, and was so happy to share in your big days! :)

as luck would have it, murphy's law hit me on my first full day in missouri. and, i just knew it was going to happen that way! i was sitting with guthrie at shakespeare's pizza, when i got a phone call from ruth, a casting director i met in my acting workshop about 7 months ago. turns out, she had kept me in mind, and thought a commercial role was perfect for me. my agent had submitted me for it, but ruth said she had also just remembered me from months ago. i would have read for the part of a young mom in a dollhouse commercial, haha! hey, i'll take it!! however, the kicker was , the audition was the next day, and clearly, i wasn't in town. so, i had to pass up the offer, but, it made my day because it showed me that my name is out there, and the connections i've made in the industry are starting to come back around! so hopefully, things will continue in this direction!!

ok, it's picture time!!!!!

here's guthrie and me at his graduation



the five of us bf's at sophias (the restaurant where i worked after college for a semester) after graduation in columbia. YUM, it was so delish. aw the five of us together like old times-so much fun!



haha, we happened to be in town on the night of a mizzou baseball game. as we were riding the golf cart up to the stadium, whit, guthrie, and i decided to take a picture. the cart jolted, and here's what we got. totally unposed! it makes me laugh.



the weather at the game was glorious! and mu won 8-1!



whit, jaclyn, and me. i can't believe we're real adults. whit's all grown and married and refinishing a basement, and jac has a real job and apartment and everything!



guth and me. seriously we could be siblings!



here's meredith, kelly, whitney, and me--some of the ole high school bf's on the pingel trampoline at lindsey's graduation party!



the four of us: chris, me, whit, and ryan, with linz the chs grad!!



a final thing i'll share with you all is this...i was so pleasantly surprised to talk with a few of you all and realize that there are actually several blog readers! i guess it just really means a lot to me that, even though i don't get the chance to talk with you all regularly, that you are keeping up with my life. i appreciate your support more than you know :)
