JUNE/JULY

I've been everywhere!! CMA fest to Bigstuf church camp in Panama City to Grammy Camp to the lake to Nashville again. So far this month has been crazy!!!! I've had some amazing experiences though CMA fest was a blast (about 11000 degrees) but fun! Bigstuf was incredible with amazing connections with God and speakers there. Grammy camp was so so fun with memories I'll always remember. The week i was there me and two other girls (Kristin Castro and Alaina Stacey: Check out their music) formed a trio called Maybe April. We got to write a beautiful song and perform it at the Grammy Camp Launch party it was so cool. You can check out the video of us performing that song "Loving you Still" here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=urMkUYbprB8This was the camps first year in Nashville and though it was hosted in the south the rest of the teenagers were from all over the country mostly up north and made fun of my Arkansas accent haha. This summer has packed in a lot so far and I'm excited to see what else is to come!! Katy:]

I can't believe summer is coming to a close and everyone is going their seperate ways.. I start college Monday at MTSU!!! I'm excited but also nervous and don't know what to expect. I know I'll miss home but am looking foward to the new experience and living close to Nashville!!! Thanks for following all I've been doing! I have my NEW RENOVATED WEBSITE up and running!!! Be sure to go by there and take a look and let me know what you think shoot me a tweet @KatyBishop12 This summer has gone by so fast and it's been so different not going back to school here but thinking that at the end of summer I'd be in a new place. I need all the support I can get!!!! Saying goodbye is never fun but I know those that want to be in my life will continue to be so that it's never actually goodbye. This is just another chapter in life and growing up is hard but doesn't mean losing who you've always been! I'll be playing back home fest in September in Mammoth Springs, AR get your tickets now at www.matthewhuff.com!!!! Also keep checking on my website other dates:]] Thanks for reading my blog and check back!! -katy:]

SUMMER BEGINS:]

So, since graduation I've had a great time. I went to Florida and did so many cool things. The water was so clear and beautiful. We saw dolphins, found sand dollars, and rode waves. We also went to a place called Gulf World in Panama City that had all kinds of shows with marine animals and I definately recommend it!!!

I've also been spending time with my friends and family. I went to to my Dad's and we went out on the lake with the Jet Skis. I thought it would feel weird to be on the lake again but honestly it felt like summer never ended last year!!! We had a family gathering and it was so fun to spend time with them.

I have big plans coming up for June that I can't wait to share starting with church camp. BigStuf, my last year to get to go :( Stay posted and thanks for reading!!

I will be playing at Biker Classic in downtown Jonesboro on June 7th at 6pm! Come on out and have some fun!

GOODMORNING! I'm headed back to Nashville today but also have my senior choir banquet tonight so it's gonna be a lateee trip!!! This week I have some cool things lined up. I'm writing,playing in Nashville,and also playing in Jackson at Casey Jones Music Highway Crossroads, and Memphis on Saturday!!! It'll be a busy week and then I'll come home, go play Little in Little Rock, then Graduate! Wowwww

Yesterday we had senior Sunday at church. I talked about how I was going to sing "I Believe I can Fly" and how that related to us all graduating, it was cool. I also talked about how growning up in the youth group shaped who we are. It was a bittersweet day.

Last night me and my friends that were on dance team together in 10th grade FINALLY had our sleepover together that we had been planning to do 2 years ago haha. We had a lot of fun!!!

I DROVE MYSELF TO NASHVILLE AND AROUND! I would say this was definitely new and different for me to drive 4 hours by myself, but the hard part was actually getting around in the city. Hey you gotta start somewhere!

Tonight I have my last school choir concert! Even though I finished High School early, my teacher still wanted me to participate, which means a lot to me!!! We are singing songs from Hey Soul Sister to Edge of Glory and she's ask me to do one of my own songs! I am planning on one I wrote with Amy Lewis called "Every Second Counts" (kinda fitting for the last few days of high school)

Summer is just around the corner and I think it's going to be one of the best ones yet!!! I can't wait to go to the lake, camp and ride wave runners! I have so many great memories and more to come.

Thanks again for the music video views!! Also the great feedback! Here's the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PvJB3hE_FfE Also any twitter users??? Mine is @KatyBishop12 so check it out!!! Also my Cd, T shirt, and other merch is available on my website www.katybishop.com!

18!!!!!!!!!

So by the title of this post I'm guessing you're seeing that I just turned 18 Saturday! It was a great day and my party was more like that of a 11 year old ahaha. I love being outside and just having fun. One of my friends bought a pinata. We hit it a good amount and it was really fun. Also my friends signed my shirt and we had a cookout with cake and games. I can't believe I'm already 18! I think my whole life and all the memories I have flashed back for me to realize how much time really does fly and to enjoy every minute.

Even though I graduated early my counselor is AWESOME and keeps me in the loop so I don't miss out on important things. This morning we had a graduation meeting at 8 OCLOCK ( I think I forgot how to wake up that early) and we also had senior slide show. The pictures ranged from baby to junior high to present day and I realized how sad it is to split up our class after so long.

Thank you for those who are continuing to watch and share my video we are almost to 2,000 views, it's so exciting!!!

My school choir is doing a pop concert for the end of the year and they have ask me to sing an original and participate in the group songs( if I can learn them fast haha). I am thankful for the support from my community.

Thanks for reading what's going on in my life, follow me on twitter www.twitter.com/KatyBishop12 or facebook www.facebook.com/katybishopmusic and let me know what's going on in yours! Have an awesome day, make it count :]

WOW! Thank you SO much for the response to my video for "May Be Love" and all the sharing of it. I'm so blessed and happy that I have the support!!!!

Today I am going out to a park here in my hometown and playing for my Mom's work staff. It's going to be a cookout so that should be fun.

Does anyone else make up weird combinations of drinks at sonic? I do for sure and one I tried recently actually that I was told about was vanilla sweet tea. Now, as a huge sweet tea fan I was thinking adding any flavoring would mess it up but I tried it because they told me it would taste like snow cream and to my surprise it did! So the last few days that's pretty much been all I've had hhaha.

This friday to celebrate a day early for my birthday I'm going to eat with my family. My aunt from Texas is getting to come in, so I'm excited about that! Time is going fast it's already wednesday!

Thanks again for helping me out with the video, here's the link if you haven't seen it yet!
