Our Very Own Idol


Rachel participated in the first Preliminary round of BYU Idol. There are 3 or 4 Preliminary rounds and the winners of each will compete in April. She tied with 2 others for first and will perform again at the finale. She sang Fidelity by Regina Spektor. She said she knew she had no chance of winning so she just had fun with the song (walking out into the audience, sitting on the edge of the stage, etc.) The judges said she definitely made the wrong song choice but love her voice and want to hear her sing something more like Alicia Keyes (I really don't like Alicia Keyes, but. . . oh, well). I wish I could have been there.

Congratulations Rachel!!

Celeste decided she needed some "lipstick" on her lips as they were chapped. "Mo, mo, mo. I need mo." was her mantra during this session.









Katie, Celeste and Eli like the stars, are rarely aligned like this. But it worked!








Too cute!
